Oh please, this punk wouldn't dare go back if it was against a proper nation with a proper army. Not some Bedouin goat herders with a rusty AK thrusted into their hands unfortunately. Murica only bullies the weak using their underprivileged civilians as cannon fodder. As I've said before Murica buckles at the knees against any developed nation let alone the likes of China or Russia. U all saw how US politicians got treated by China, told them to behave lol, and Murica simply obliged.

[@lincolnpascual]

I took some serious hurt in combat myself... still recovering from it. Lost half my stomach, a nice chunk of intestines, my gall bladder, my spleen, my left leg, and my left eye is absolutely fucked. Most days, I don't even understand how I manage not to eat a bullet myself by lunch. My life is just unending pain. But Marcus inspires me to keep pushing... even if it kills me, I'm getting back into the fight. Somehow, someway... I won't let that shit kill me. Not without one hell of a fight. When Death comes for me, it better come strapped. Because I'll greet it like everything else that has tried to kill me in my life... with a big fuck you and a foot up its ass. Now, if I could only relearn how to trust that it's just a fart...

My brothers are heroes and I was a lowlife. I remember the CO would let me talk on the phone with my bros because he was a vet himself. Mortars dropped on them and I thought he was dead.

"Pain is a matter of the perspective from the person who is going through it"---Marcus Luttrell

That is absolutely true, I found that a great way to manage pain is to compare it to past pains, if its about equal I survived the last one I will this one too, if its lower I just think about that time and the pain just lowers quite a bit or at least my perspective of it, I'm able to gain control over it. Pain could be physical or emotional I found.

As I got injured and was falling something in my mind flashed back to the previous injury and I guaged in a second that it wasn't as bad. This gave me confidence and I got up and played the last 10 minutes... But my ankle was bad the next day but not near as bad and recovery was way quicker.

I am in chronic pain. I have been on pain killers for a decade. I find it strange that their are sometimes (very rare but still strange) when I don’t need a pill even though I have been working physically hard that day. The only answer I have come up with is related to expectations. When I am backpacking I don’t expect to be comfortable and that can reduce the need for a pain killer. Compare that to after a hard day at home you fully expect some relief when you sit down on the couch. With chronic pain that literally Never goes away that relief is not there and that is when the claustrophobic nightmare begins. You can not find relief and that is where I am so thankful for the pain killers that I have. They a life giving for me.

That dude was abused to a really sad level and went through the ringer his entire life. He passed the physical screening portion of Delta's OTC, including the long walk, and if I'm not mistaken he obliterated the record on that long walk. He failed the psychological screening portion of it due to his sort of lone wolf mentality and his inability to jive with Delta's social dynamic. SOFREP has several articles on personal stories by some Unit operators and a few of them include some level of fraternal and racist banter (all in good fun) and they sort of revealed that (intentionally) during the screening. The lone wolf mentality definitely plagued him during his time with the teams too - just didn't click nor did he even want to.

Very profound interview. Kudos to Joe Rogan. I found the decision Marcus made to re-engage in the combat world to be likely therapeutic. He says "I had to". Whatever drove him to re-engage in Iraq I feel like probably saved his sanity and did not allow the horror he lived in Afghanistan to consume him. Seems like maybe the re-engagement in Iraq allowed the Afghanistan experience to become somewhat of an experience along a bit of a continuum as opposed to an event that destroyed his ability to cope - at least for him.

[@malachismith3475]

Exactly. A lot of my buddies are buds duds (guys that got dropped from buds) and they’re all around 6ft. It makes all the workouts harder especially doing boat crew when the guy in the middle of the group is 5’7 5’8 and is barely touching the boat cause all the tall guys are carrying it

I can only imagine all of the challenges in BUD/s, but at 6'3, my limited experience as "the tall guy" during simple log PT was brutal.

So true. From my experience, but from a potentially skewed memory because it's been several years, SF guys are pretty short in general. Not all, but a lot of them. I remembered when they (generally SEALs or Delta Force) would show up to the aircraft and being on the shorter side. I imagine having a lower center of gravity offers tremendous benefits being in that line of work. Some bad dudes though.

''pain is a matter of perspective'', thats a good quote. something i realized early as a kid and i have probably never cried because of pain since i were around 8 years old.

[@ThisMusicIsToogood]

My dad is dealing with terminal cancer and having been a karate teacher and black belt in his day, he's always been insanely good with dealing with pain. You wouldn't know he was gonna be dead in the next 0-5 years because he is able to tell himself it doesn't hurt and actually stop it hurting him physically as much. Man's a beast.

I give him much respect for the service that he did for his country in combat. But if the movie depicted him correctly and he refused to go with the rest and neutralize those three captives they had he caused the death of many Navy Seals. The three seals that were with him on the mission and the many that were in the Chinook helicopter that were hit with a RPG. In my opinion it showed he had no stomach to do what was needed

I’ve seen a lot of his videos before and he says you know I got my ass kicked lost my weapon which was cowardly... and it’s like dude your team was in such a bad spot and you guys all did what you could but you can tell he’s upset still with what happened and he has survivors remorse but still it breaks my heart thinking that he was afraid other seals would look down on him.

I got to hear him tell his story live at an event a few years back where he was the surprise guest speaker. It changed my life. He criticized himself the whole time and talked about how its not fair he’s here and they are gone. Check out lone survivor and his other book called service. This man stared the taliban in the face and told them to cut his head off “come on let’s go” were his exact words. He’s a legend and I hope people keep supporting him and don’t forget his story.

I was a firefighter in the Air Force and the ball breaking we did on each other was gruesome and frankly it was bullying. I can only imagine what he was afraid of.
