IDK how I ended up hear; I too served and man this part of the service is a real kick in the ballz; thank you both for serving!

Much respect in 2022.

I can't put into words what your service and sacrifice means to me God Bless you and your family 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

I am 56 a woman with a Rottweiler, and my only desire that I have ever had was to be a Green Beret, but my Daddy who was Navy always told me that they will not accept women, so my second desire was to marry one, yet I have not ever known any. Neither dream ever came .Waiting for a Green Beret to walk into my life is like waiting for the faithful and true rider on a white horse to come.

Rangers and Airborne dudes with deployment experience are typically the ones in selection. Attrition rates are meaningless without context. SFAS doesn’t get enough credit for how difficult it is even for seasoned soldiers. Thanks for your service

@@d-train115 Absolutely true...getting through ranger school itself has a pretty stiff drop rate and fall out rate in the field(Airborne/Jump School on the other hand was a walk in the park...I went thru Benning as a new Recon Marine). As I said in my post I had/have great respect for the SF soldiers and I only busted my brother's chops over the Recon drop rate (approx. 80% in my BRC class, with a previous 50% drop rate for the required Indoc class) because he was my "little" brother.

@@stevefowler2112 Retired TM SGT here, I bust Marine Corps chops all the time, but was damn happy to have them on our left flank in Somalia. Salute! De Oppresso Liber

@@d-train115 Totally agree but the same can be said for BRC, it was only open to infantry Marines who are maxing the PFT and qualified expert on the rife and pistol ranges with a minimum rank of E3. The difference in the drop rates was, especially back in the 70's, the pool test portion of BRC would typically result in between a third and a half of the class being dropped within the first few days. SF selection doesn't have the same demanding pool test. Beyond the pool test most of our drops were due to physical breakdowns associated with the heavy humps over extended distances in the hills and mountains. Lots of injuries.

haha what cap you fucking liar

@@dirtysok9856 lol...airborne ranger...so are you in the 101st or the 75th Regiment?

Delta? Cool. At Campbell?

The 101st isn’t even a Tier 2 unit bro. You weren’t Delta don’t even try and lie to people.

Delta my ass. You lying, stolen Valor POS.

@@nevergoodenough9604 Mine too. We lived in Okinawa from 63 to 67 while he was going back and forth. He was a communications specialist. They probably knew each other. A pretty tight group of men.

@Rick4345 be cool my father served in Vietnam from 70 to 71

TY

@@totallysmooth1203 What the f@#k are you trying to say?

@@brucepappas6298 he's saying Kappy wouldn't have a clue and wouldn't care if he didn't have rocks in his head. The guy has issues and has been brainwashed to hate the country on racial grounds. He's not worth a scintilla of your time or thought, is kind of what that Biblical passage is getting at, thought it's referring specifically to presenting Biblical truths to those who live only to dismiss and to ridicule. Peace.

This song was sang by Sgt Barry Saddler; not a German.

@@breadletsky473 Sorry sir, Staff Sergeant Barry Allen Sadler was the singer for the English version, that's the truth. The composer was - believe it or not - a German named Ernst Bader (* 1914-1999 + // de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernst_Bader) The (first ) German version "Hundert Mann und ein Befehl" Singer: Freddy Quinn.
