I mean i would too if this is what i loved to do and got paid for it. Lol

[@curtisc6768]

@@JohnBoyJoy doubt he gets any or very little yt money, if you will pay attention, you will notice there are never any ads in his videos, no ads, no money, (or little to nothing) I am sure what he spends on meat targets alone completely off sets what he might (if any ) receive for these videos.

I did a 3-week training evolution with the 2nd SFBTN, 19th SFG in Camp Dawson, WVa back in 88 and we missed a food-drop because the chopper pilot didn’t feel our security was tight enough. We had been in the sticks for 10 days, with 11 to go, and we hadn’t eaten in over 24 hours. Us Jarheads were bitching-infantry units are professional bitchers-but as we were complaining and gathering wild low bush blueberries, which were everywhere, one of the Green Berets slipped off into the deeper woods. About 30 minutes later…BANG. He came back into camp dragging a fat doe which we promptly skinned and field -dressed, and put her on a huge spit. Roasted venison and wild blueberries never tasted so good! I don’t think we even had any seasoning but, when you’re really hungry, you don’t even think about it. I’ve had a lot of respect for those SF guys ever since! Good memories. 👍🏼🫡. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. 🍻🦃 BTW Paul, I was an 0331 (M60 Gunner) and that MILES gear (Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System) was a lot of fun! We could probably share a lot of similar stories about using that stuff! 😂👍🏼

Canned brown bread is an awesome addition to an emergency larder. Lasts for a very long time, and is chock full of calories. To me, it's desert in a can. And you can get canned brown bread with raisins in it, for extra tastiness. I just moved, and it took me two days to move my pantry. I have a LOT of canned food. Because canned food is quite often good for many years after the "best by" date. I just ate some canned cranberry sauce that was "best by" in 2021. Tasted just fine, and i am still here, so edible for sure.
