Hit a nerve when Bob said the Brits wouldn't carry out the casevac because they said it was too hot. As a Brit in Afghanistan we had this problem more than once. Our own helicopters wouldn't pick us up because it was too dangerous so we just ended up calling American birds who never failed to pick us up from wherever we were no matter the danger. So started to love the US pilots

[@josephfranzen9196]

I spent 8 years in the 82nd 1st/504th, I can’t recall the unit but at one point in 07 a British unit in our AO was taking serious IDF and small arms fire after having one of their vehicles disabled by an IED. They had multiple casualties and when we arrived we rolled up in force obviously and our medics immediately started lending a hand to the British docs in anyway they could. I was speaking with one of our medics after we returned to our COP and he said more or less exactly what you said. You guys have gunships and certainly skilled pilots, you think this was an upper echelon command decision?

[@akiheavenly6]

Probably because the UK can't afford to lose even one helicopter. The Americans have beaucoup money so they don't even blink when one of their helicopters get shot down.

[@pinchespiderman]

​@josephfranzen9196 I was in B 1/504 Through most of 1989-1994.

[@Alex20towed]

I think it was possibly because of the lack of resources, so losing a helicopter would be a considerable loss to the British Military, whereas the US has much more redundency even though the loss of life would be tragic@@josephfranzen9196

Bob Poras is the funniest and most personable one of your guests so far. He keeps it real by laughing at how ridiculous his scenarios were. My favorite SRS interview so far!

[@savage22bolt32]

Second that!

[@sp22m3]

I love the entire dialogue around the analyst woman. You can really see his humanity and heart during this part of the interview. You can tell that any issues she has mentally from that event is forefront in his mind and he feels a bit of responsibility for her. His constant compliments of her performance come across like a father wanting to hug a daughter and tell her everything is okay and I'm proud of you. There's a lot between the words that comes through during this part that reveals this dude's gigantic heart. So he's a badass with no quit in him that also has deep compassion. What a great man.

[@fmeza7548]

I've been watching this podcast for months now and all I can say is that this is one of the best interviews you've done Mr. Ryan. It's clear that you did your research and while you maintain excellent rapport with Ninja, you still are self aware enough to maintain pace and make it feel so natural. Ninja is incredible. IMO, he's the funniest dude you've ever had on. This is a leadership episode, hands down and Poras should do that because there are very few people that have his life experience. What I especially appreciate is his humility to state the facts, be critical, humble and not mud sling gives him even more credibility. That Benghazi portion, I was expecting that from one of you and I'm happy to see how it was covered and that it did get political. It was a failure in leadership top down. That's it. Back to you, this is incredible and for what it's worth, it's great to see the journey of you and the platform that you're building. Salute.

[@marcocorreia6255]

He must have listened to these events lots of times, but the way he drives the interview is brilliant.

I just love those old school operators. They're just so understated and unassuming. They don't "wear" their badassedness like a lot of the younger guys do. Bobsled (his Unit nickname) seems just like a regular dad type standing behind a grill observing his lawn, while in reality he's a stone cold pipehitter with a superb reputation among his peers.

One of the best interviews, you've done yet, on your channel. Bob Poras is a virtual encyclopedia of military an contracting.

[@Kelso540]

Ninja is a profound guy, one hell of a watch. Have to admit I was struck by the sadness that would flash in and out of his eyes as he told stories. I haven't ever seen somebody step in and out of his memory banks the way this man does. Thanks for the opportunity Shawn. You the man.

[@scottb3188]

Love his description about GRS, not saying "yes", but trying to get to "yes", and willing to say "no, but ...". We were taught as Navy Officers that our reply was never to be "no", but instead, present alternative, perhaps better options. All feedback to command should be constructive. That's what Bob is essentially saying. "No" doesn't solve problems. "Yes" doesn't stop idiotic ideas and directives. You're paid to present solutions, not to say "no", or even "yes". In Bob's case, he was steering GRS management to a constructive, viable, and (maybe) life saving solution. Good stuff. - Navy 05/ret.

One of the most amazing episodes I've watched on here! Thanks a lot! What a remarkable individual! There's so many guys that you interview that just ooze all the darkness and horrors they endured. You can see the regret and pain painted all over their faces. Ninja is definitely not one of them. Despite everything he went through, he looks like he put up with it just fine and remains a bright figure of leadership with a demeanor that make you wanna listen to him for hours. I'd love to know what makes him so mentally resilient. Phenomenal episode!
