Think about it like this, you get up and go to a job everyday you're climbing up that ladder and then they say we are closing this building and everyone is fired. The whole time you know that it could happen, you start embezzling $10,000 here, a company car, and there is an extra house. It's all company related until it is closed and has to account for everything. Rather than get caught you find it is easier to cook the books and burn the CFO. If it gets worse you can cover it up with a controlled fire that burns any evidence. It's a rabbit hole of deceit convincing yourself to go to work in the first place was the psychological compromise.

My dad was in special operations. He never let me or my brother hang around members of his unit, I hardly knew any of them growing up, the most I’ve ever been around “operators” was through second & third hand talk & here say. Despite being a military brat I probably grew up just as normal as a civilian kid, minus the overseas assignments. My dad never discussed his job & we never asked, when he retired he flipped a 180 & went full civilian/corny dad in Christmas sweaters. He looks like a black version of Walter White, a complete nerd in appearance, except it’s always in the back of my mind that he’s done some absolutely nightmarish things despite his outward looks.

I remember my dad’s high school buddy who was former Army SF telling us why Army brass hates the SOF community and why they rarely made it to the top of the ranks. The very things that makes them great at what they do is a liability when called upon to oversee large units, commands, etc. Ingenuity, initiative, derring-do impulsiveness might be great for engagements but it’s rarely great for managing large organizations that need to advance strategic priorities and balance conflicting interests. As he told it, senior officers didn’t trust SF’s judgement and couldn’t tell if they were exceptionally courageous and meticulous or just unhinged crazy. In any event, the generals preferred to keep them in their own sandbox and not let them around anything too important. Not sure if his perception was correct or still holds but it seems to be in line with was discussed.

Even if his superiors didn't like him. He deserved proper arrangements with a system that can deal with unhappy service men. We are fighting terrorists, we do not become like them. Not having a system that supports vets being satisfied with their service or what they have done has long term consequences. This is why recruitment numbers are low. This is also why foreign policy is failing its goals. All our leaders had to do was maintain the integrity and fundamentals that created the empire. The love of money has corrupted our values. The value of freedom isn't for selfishness. It's to do what you can for your country. Freedoms are suppose to inspire others, not to make them disgusted that people have them. If people continue to see abuse of Freedoms. The entire system will collapse. The enemy is very clear. It is those who lack integrity.

30 years ago or so, I read an article when I was in college taking a class in psychology. The article was discussing a potential issue with the way the US military trained soldiers. Part of the training sought to remove psychological impulses that would prevent people from killing someone else. Obviously, the military doesn't want soldiers that will hesitate in pulling the trigger in a combat situation. The issue the author of the article had with the training is that the military doesn't do _anything_ to undo this training before releasing the soldiers back to private life.

Military brat here, my dad was a fighter pilot in the Air Force, dad was a career pilot and flew multiple different fighters, T37/38, the A7, the A10,.. He was a career pilot in the Air Force and later the Air National Guard. I can tell you firsthand that military bases are some of the most disgusting cesspools of infidelity. This is not only the Navy Seals or other SF groups, but all career military groups. I don’t know what the rate of infidelity is, but it was sky high when I was a kid! That is the sole reason I never joined the military. I didn’t want my life and future family to be ripped apart by that disgusting lifestyle. I’ve talked to people that had similar experiences that were both much older than me and younger than me so my guess is that it’s been prevalent for a long time and it continues to exist today.

My dad was in the Army and I can attest to all you’re saying. I was probably starting to notice all the cheating when I was bout 5 as well. My own dad was a cheater, he’d cheat with other men’s’ wives and when he was deployed. He’d buy prostitutes too. Men of higher ranks would come by and try to talk with my mom when my dad wasn’t around. They’d flirt with her and she’d say “no, I’d never do that to my family”. She never did cheat & I remember my mom sitting my sister and I down for talks bout how we shouldn’t cheat and lose our honor and how she was disgusted by the actions of the people around her. However, the ladies in that community were just as bad bout cheating. Often a lot of them would cheat on their husbands with his fellow soldiers or even close friends when their husband wasn’t around. It felt like, in almost every couple at the base, it was cheat or be cheated on. Or they’re both cheating 😅.

I remember when I went to Iraq, as an HM, I would ask Marines, "what made you want to join?". More than a couple answered, "Cause I just wanna kill Hajis Doc!"..... And Marines would act differently after they got that CAR, especially if they caught a body. They start acting like every problem can be resolved with a gun. I could only imagine how that translate to the SF community.

What you describe is basically the equivalent of say, when a special narcotics investigative unit, needed to be disbanded.This was the SIU, a group of high ranking detectives in NYC who instead of stopping the distribution of heroin, in New York City, became enablers of the heroin dealers themselves. They made a movie about it called Princes of the City, back in 1982. Half the group got arrested and got long prison sentences.These were elite top notch detectives, gone totally bad.

A former troop of mine who was at Holoman AFB, was ordered by the fire chief to take the P-10 rescue truck down to an aircraft hanger and load up a bunch of paint cans, they stashed dozens of cans in every compartment in the truck, they then drove to the chiefs house and put it in his garage. The paint was the special radar absorbing stuff they put on the F-117's. The chiefs plan was to paint his Corvette with it to keep the cops from getting a radar reading off him while he's zooming around in his souped up Vette. SFS retrieved the paint, the Chief was "Asked" to retire, so he did, and a wk later he was a hired as a GS-12 civil service fire chief.

When I was in the Army, there was this Delta Force Operator. He went on a deployment, came back home to Fort Bragg, then killed his wife and his 2 kids. His wife wanted to leave him because he was always gone on deployments. He just couldn’t allow that. He buried his family in the forest outside Fort Bragg; and he wandered around the forest for 2 days before he went back to base and confessed what he did. He’s currently serving life in prison. There was a special forces operator. He went on deployment and came back and killed his wife then shot him self in the head. Sometimes people just snap. I had my good friend shoot himself at work with his own duty gun. It was horrible. He killed himself because his girlfriend was sleeping with someone else. I also lost my cousin. He drank himself to death and died alone in his house out in Antioch. People need mental health check ups just like your car needs a service check up every 6 months. Take care of yourselves people.

When i spent 7+ years in the Navy it killed any sense of impressiveness and misconceptions i had about the military and the people in it i had prior. I didn't have a particularly or exceptionally awful experience. I think i wasn't wired well for it but i managed to scrape by with an honorable discharge and a disabling anxiety disorder. What i found out though very quickly is that every single person you meet is just some asshole. They're equally capable of doing good and harm as anyone and when you inflate their egos by telling them they're special for joining the military, even as lowly as an e-1, they will internalize that and do wrong at some point and think they are exceptional in doing so. Everyone's special and hot shit and can bounce back from whatever mistakes they make even if they're alchoholics and that's just ignored because they only fuck up on their time off.

14:06 Jake, you missed the mark slightly. Think about the high-achieving, hyper-masculine male and what these environments signal to a female. A female wants provision and protection. These men/environments signal just that. It's hard to fight off human nature. Here is a story I've seen too many times. The small-town boy is a hero when his town finds out he is joining the Army. He gets married and then brings his new wife to the base he is now stationed at. A year later, she is with someone else, often of higher rank and grade. What happened? Well, little johnny is the hero in this small town, but now she's on base and sees stars in her eyes. She is exposed to people and a life she has never been exposed to. Now, little Johnny just seems...regular. The other "dishes" seem more appetizing. 🤷🏿‍♂️ How does this relate to what you guys mentioned in the video? It's about options. The more options a person has, the least likely they will be happy with the choice they've made. This is why I can't wait to get out. I want to start a family in a normal community within a somewhat normal society.

There was this stupid, waste of time operation we had to do. I was a specialist at the time. And someone lost a weapon and we had to search for a missing M4. Like it's a sensitive item ya know. We spent so much time looking for that thing. Turns out the Squadron's S3 SGM stole it from our CSM's driver. He got caught at customs trying to take it home for R&R. 27:10

The mahmudiyah killings is one of the most horrific and sickening things to have ever happened! Conquerors, warriors, soldiers whatever you wanna call em are far from the heroes they're glorified as, they are the worst of creatures. Maybe that's why they're glorified so much as compensation.

This was easily the most entertaining military related video I have seen. I was laughing my ass off at many of the stories. You guys should SERIOUSLY consider creating a channel just focused on telling stories about military related crimes (especially the funnier ones, like robbing a bank with 4 of the most easily identifiable guns on the planet). You don't even need to limit it to SOF. All of those stories are interesting. You would probably get 1 million subs in 9 months.

Former Special Force's DB Cooper, Jeffrey McDonald & Alana McLaughlin, one robbed an airplane, the other allegedly brutally murdered his family and the last enjoys beating up women in the Octagon. I think that the Rambo movies put the Green Beret on blast and they handled it much better than the SEALs, who seem to be struggling with the fame. Anybody notice that the army was giving all new recruits a black beret around the time of the Rambo films? You 2 guys are my favorite because you're doing something very unpopular. People generally don't like the truth, the fiction is always prettier. As a military buff none of this really surprises me. These are in the end trained assassin's. What color is your parachute? Thanks for the content. You don't see much actual content on KZbin anymore! And I mean this in the best way but I love how the total bad ass SEAL says okayyy like Mr Mackey from South Park put a smile on my face every time. And the Green Beret, that first video you did about your personal experience regarding ethics and SF... that was chilling and one of the first times I didn't feel cheated out of the chance to try out for SF or even enlist due to medical issues. Might have been a break after all. My girlfriend's ex husband is a former Green Beret and I didn't know it until 6 years later when she told me. The man was so soft spoken and such a gentleman I honestly sized him up right away as not being much of a threat if he turned out to be hostile, as ex husbands can. Boy my intuition was off that day...

Rambo came out in 1982 and the regular Army didn't wear black berets until 2001 although Rangers originally wore the black beret from around 1975.

We went to the black Beret in 2002 because General Shinseki that wanted that. Nothing to do with Rambo as the person above said that was 20 years prior. When we went to black beret the Rangers went to tan beret. To be a military history buff you sure dont know much just saying. Thats basic knowledge.

Nothing but drama with all this SOF stuff. Jesse Ventura made an interesting point in an interview. He said back in his days as a SEAL, no one knew who he was in the Navy, and if a sailor asked, he'd say he was a diver. Jesse said, "Now becoming a SEAL is being monetized." He also said he didn't blame the guys as there was a lot of money out there.

the amount of study and training mentally and physically to become a Navy Seal must be off the charts gruelling and intense. to be that acute in all areas of your trade is phenomenal. Which is why I find it bizarre to say the least that such individuals would 1. Rob a bank and 2. Not have the foresight to realise that the highly restricted counter terrorism MP5 sub machine guns with full military kit applied would be traceable to a certain location. I mean thats really really dumb.

My first encounter with SF was was very interesting. They were to take over the COP my company was exiting from. SF guys whom just arrived in theater got a hold of spray paint and sprayed obscenities in rooms we were just in. The SF guys blamed it on my company although we were absent. My Ranger bat CO got word of it and apparently called big brass. The SF guys were relieved of duty before they could unpack.
