Yea, come out and live in the Philippines. The best girls to meet are in churches (old school), introduced by friends, and not in bars.

[@gregpineda8660]

And I totally agreed with you,I'mwatching!!!

[@CrisE1983]

@Titan Rayden No no one cares :D

[@glennmcallister2509]

I remember the American submarine base in Scotland Holy lock when I was growing up. The sailors would visit the dance hall on a Saturday night in My home town Glasgow. Mostly The Black Guys. Great Music, Sam Cooke, Otis Redding soul Music. This was in the late 60s. Great times.

[@MsLarry91]

I know what you are talking about. I am a retired nurse here in the US and saw a lot of older people dying and that is when their kids showED up on their death bed. If there is nothing for them no one will claim the patient. So sad because growing up in Asia, we just do not treat our parents that way. So my suggestion to you is stay in the Philippines. Filipino women in general are loyal. Treat them well and they will stay with you.

[@curtisgregory517]

mark, please check your mic. many videos you are like in an echo chamber. Your guest's mic is perfect. thanks much for all the great interviews, your friend, Curtis.

[@douglasmartin4029]

Mark...really enjoyed this...some videos I just fall asleep, it's so important to have feedback....so you both make it interesting! I will be coming there with my Filipina wife of 25 years together!

[@isaacsworld9269]

Used to go to PI in 80s and lately 2007. On my 2nd Filipino wife. 1st one 15yrs current one almost 14 yrs. Very happy. DO NOT go to dating sites. Save your money. Book a trip to (not manila). Cebu or Davao or Dumaguete. There are THOUSANDS literally of lovely girls who are single and are really genuine and faithful. Go there for a holiday. They WILL find YOU!

[@mercycalip8032]

Yes.. lots of beautiful women in the Philippines but just be careful to find the good one and not working in club and have faith in GOD.

[@amejaremy]

Just a message for Shawn...I don't know what it's like to be in a divorced family. But I remember 20 years ago when I was 20. I was confused and angry and disappointed, and I was cocky and arrogant etc. I didn't know anything expect my parents didn't know anything. Now I am 40 and I have 4 little kids. And now I realize how hard it all is. Life is hard. And I look forward to hearing from my Dad. Keep working on yourself, have patience and have hope.

[@steven904]

If he "was thinking about getting out" it leads me to believe that his injury is not related to his leaving the Navy. Probably just one of the hundreds of thousands of veterans that filed a post service VA claim. Some legit and some not so. His claim that the total Navy fleet is comprised of 90% submarines is just total nonsense and not something I would typically hear from an 11 year veteran. I'd like to get a peek at his DD214...I served 25 years from 1984 - 2009 (retired) so I know a little bit about what I am talking about.

[@seattle40]

agree, taking advantage of lack system.. nothing wrong with that guy

[@marcrichard7251]

Christian Filipina is free for the women but I had to pay. It was worth it for me as I met a lot of beautiful women on the site and now I am engaged but covid keeps us apart for now.

This was an interesting interview and an interesting guy.

[@robkal56]

Interesting person, interesting interview (the first does not guarantee the second) and good information on meeting a filipina. Thanks.

[@rickmanley767]

I was in the P.I. in 83 while stationed on a fast attack submarine, U.S.S. Guitarro ssn665, a boat that’s been decommissioned and scrapped.

[@aleasayowear3599]

Can you come let's continue our live together go to church together pray together take care sir

[@L4P-Monk]

Sean's experience is way different than mine. With missile subs they had 2 crews 3 months at sea 3 months in port. Must be nice. I was on a fast attack sub. They used to call them "fast black and never come back". Just one crew and always out. I went through nuclear power school. Went to Hong Kong and they did not allow us to dock. We had to moor out and take water taxis in. Japan, Korea, Philippines allowed us to dock. Missile subs had more space and more crew but they stacked the racks 4 tall on my sub. Lay down on your back, put your fist on forehead and that is the distance between you and the rack above you. I got out a year before he went in. Interesting... maybe I will see you guys out there. Peace ✌

[@Wolff13]

Guys, please don’t use any dating sites; read about the Philippines, watch videos here and book your flight; come to the Philippines and you’ll are guaranteed to meet a loving Pinay. (after the pandemic, that is).

[@Londoncab]

Very very interesting interview . Thankyou for his service . On a side note, they Phil;ippine govt is being put under a lot of pressure by China. Hopefully they will re open bases

[@stephenabm7779]

In another quite interesting interview, being a veteran, his story resonated with me; the only real difference is that I served in the field artillery in the US Army during the cold war and Desert Storm later on. My divorce was similar to his with non-communication from children due to my ex. I was also a good father. This action appears to be relatively common today and gut-wrenching. He has my empathy. Thank you for conducting this video with this US Navy disabled veteran. I am also disabled from the military.

[@TexasBubblehead]

USS Albuquerque here, I wear the same exact cover lol Living in Jacksonville, first job after Navy was CSX Westside. Small world. Oh and reason I joined was because of police academy in Irving TX and recruiter gave me and the wife free tickets to Hunt for Red October. Hope to be in Davao City in 2021.

@@johnnier.o.d4746 oh, man, I had a bad first impression and after watching a few videos I realized how I really spoke out of turn because in the other videos there were hardly any commercials at all, so glad I have this channel another look, fantastic information here and some great stories and very few commercials at all , only had that bad experience with the first video that I started to watch that a commercial came on after 30 second's but since then it hasn't happened again.

It's been a long long time ago. I've been to Grace's municipality of Samboan. Nice people there. My friend that retired from Cebu Coast Guard Station-2 was born there. It was just a short motorboat ride from there to Negros, Or Municipality of Sibulan. A fairly quiet area. Another pleasant story. 👍 Thx! 🙏

[@truttman]

Wow. Cool. An interview with Sean. You see him in videos, but you don't hear from him. This is cool.

[@1mw4tch1ng]

Give the kids till they reached the age of 30+. They will realize parents are important in their life and they will reach out.

[@richardhowe5583]

that is not always true. And remember the apple does not fall far from the tree. As I have seen and as I have experienced some families are not family-orientated to be that way among themselves. Some family members are drawn to other families. The trick is to realize who you are and where you stand in the world of your own family and other families..

[@Thrivinglife3835]

Another great story. Thank you for sharing. Keep them coming. Watching from California. 😊

[@reymon3432]

I had a client-friend before who was a former US Navy too who always says "In the US I am nothing but in the Philippines I live like a King". He had a large house and SUV. She married a Filipina and had children, died and buried in the Philippines.

[@elementalview1]

You have amazing interviews, all the credit to you for bringing it out of your guests. I was born and raised near Dunaguete, with plans to semi retire there after 40+ years being away, and your channel provides the best place to reacquaint myself with what wilk be a new place for me. Fortunately, I haven't lost a step with my binisaya.

[@danielhuntington2116]

Did Sean and Short Province Girl get married? I do not see her channel anymore....love your interviews. Keep up the great interviews!

[@Thudothwacker]

I was fortunate to have an opportunity to tour inside Subic during US navy days. It's just like you flew to America. Everything is different from the Philippines. Roads are like country roads in the States.

Stop signs and traffic lights are waste of time in 3rd world in the majority of intersections.

Oh it's Sean and Gracie! I didn't realize who you were interviewing until you showed Gracie. I guess the hat threw me off as I mostly just listen. Oh, and filipino cupid is not free. You can sign up free. But at least one of you has to have paid membership to communicate. Like 90% of the women are free members which means you need to pay if you want to read and respond. 2 free members cannot message back and forth.

Welcome to Philippines,Sean and you are indeed a former U.S. Navy submariner and an all---appointed---all---chosen and all---called specialized or experienced ballistic missile technician assigned in an all---powerful,all---potent and all---deadly U.S. Navy ballistic missile submarine.And I pray,wish and hope that the United States of America's Armed Forces's ( And the Home of the Brave) Military and Naval "Top---Brasses" will take---over again in their former U.S. Navy---controlled Subic Bay Naval Base,Philippines so that our fellow Filipino shipbuilders,steel workers and fabricators will be able to land shipbuilding careers in Subic Bay,Philippines again.

[@johnsullivan1510]

I have to disagree with Sean, There are only 71 submarines in the USN compared to 490 surface ships. Only 1% of the Navy is the submarine service members.

[@johnsullivan1510]

@Short Province Girl Hi, not looking to embarrass him I was submarine sailor also and very proud of it and I just wanted to get the correct numbers out there Please let Sean know as a fellow submariner I am proud of his service as well
