War Veteran interview-Repeat

I don't doubt a word he said. When he said that it was the 82nd Airborne that landed on Grenada and not the Marines he is dead-on.

True, they just required the Marines to save them. A very common mistake. My aunt's ex husband says a little prayer for the leathernecks that saved him.

Yeah, and thanks for being a drug dealing criminal.

[@truthovertribalism4038]

Yes and No. I used to work and hang out on skidrow. Some people go there to die. That may be true. But some people go there to save money and get resources. Some people go there because it can be like a poor man's Las Vegas. ( inexpensive drinking, gambling, entertainment) Some people go there to do missionary work. But overall, most people view it as a transitional place. A place to be temporarily for whatever reason.

I watched this whole interview and was captured by him from the very beginning. But towards the end when he said "I'll wait. Something good might happen." I lost it. All of it. He will stick with me. I clicked on this video and learned more than I expected to and would love to see/hear from him again. Just as he said, I want a Repeat!!! I will that he finds reasons to smile and peace in his heart. He's a warrior and has done so much. And that was only what he shared in 36 minutes!!!! Thank you for sharing his story.

It’s so sad that he’s out there on the streets like that, and repeat something good will happen like you said so please stay here. I wish I could just give you a home and make you happy because you deserve happiness. God bless this guy he’s a great person.

This is hands down the best interview in so many ways; he brings the light in. I honestly really can’t put it into words. But thank you, Repeat, for being so honest, brave & for sharing your story. And as always, thank you, Mark, for showing us REAL HUMANS and their stories that absolutely NEED AND SHOULD be heard. And seen. The amazing photos really add. Thank you both.

[@texasvice1]

He took me out when he said the doctor said do you feel this?" He grabbed the doc and said Do you feel this"? Too funny. However, at 29:00 his humanity comes to light and you realize this character is a very special human being. Great interview.

THANK YOU FOR SERVING OUR COUNTRY AND SHARING YOUR POWERFUL STORY !

[@jeff-dv8cx]

So much insight in this man's story. I really hope he finds some peace. Pete, if you read this, thank you for your service. I was 2/319th AFAR 82nd Airborne, set up commo for the same 105mm howitzers that shook the ground in Grenada. That was a little prior to my enlistment, but I got to know many who were there. Most of our casualties were friendly fire, unfortunately. Glad you made it through that, sounds like you're not going out until you make that decision, hope it's a long time away, my friend.

[@mcflybywire]

This is one of the most amazing stories I’ve ever heard and I can relate in a lot of ways shit almost brought me to tears man. I’m just glad you’re hanging in there Repeat saw the newest update and we’re all rooting for you Sir.
