No....Pat is a Terminator Cyberdyne systems model 101

CQB

@@kilakr13 Thx,one of the "As I get older " issues.🥴

Pat left the Unit in 2005; Vickers i believe 2002 or 2001. While there is some truth to your statement - this is not the timeline they went in to rescue Kurt Muse either.. Around the 2000s where plenty or high tech stuff

@@sNiPeR95PwnZ Pat was in before 2000,the 90's was around the time of all the wiz-bang stuff was really flooding in,everybody jumped on that "try our new sci fi stuff", just my guess nothing more but its probably why Vic and alot of guys from that time don't really do hi tec stuff...my wording for optics and stuff. My reasons and again just mine are some of that,the other half is no matter what I pick up strip all the optic and stuff up I'm familiar with its operation and use. I don't have anything against all that fancy stuff if people want to use it that's awesome that's just me.

You are making our military look bad. Nobody is gunna give you a pat on the back because you carried a heavy radio. You still were out there. You were still getting some. You signed up for it. Shut up. There is a 9 year old in Syria with no food, not one clean wound, and an old AK. Oh and he’s fucking ready for you. With all of his technology. So yeah. Let’s sit here and remind everybody that we didn’t have cool flashlights to help us win gunfights or we didn’t have a laser or we didn’t have this. It’s a sacrifice.

Granted they didn’t need our support, they just politely tolerated us 😂

Meat gazer

Takes all types to form a SOF Unit. But Tier One guys I have been around, and worked with, are all humble and genuine guys, who truly care about those they work with, and care more about getting the job done, than getting recognition or accolades. That shit comes with the job, but is seldom the focus. Plus OPSEC is pretty much the focus of everything you do in the SOF world. Quiet professionals, bro..

Agreed!

Same thing in a business setting or in any task delegation role really.

Likely was him sir thank you for your service

I went SF for hands in pockets.

Delta takes recruits from all branches of the military. First selection is from the army, Special Forces, Rangers and 82nd Airborne. Then they will look at recruits from other special missions units like Navy Seals, Air Force Special Tactics Squadrons and MARSOC

They aren't great at one thing its because you are goodbye at everything. They don't have a weakness and carry a trait of team oriented.

@@SuperWagner23 please stop spewing this nonsense on the internet. Some high school kid might actually believe you.

@@SuperWagner23 true BUT, data & R&D shows about 75% of ACE(Delta) are Airborne Rangers from the 75th Ranger Regiment. Most of the Army tier 1 units are Bat Boys 🦇....

I asked him about it in a class in New Orleans. He was not a fan.

That's why they often hire SOF, for those skills and culture.

Dudes.

According to the book, that actually did happen with Norm Hooten

Lmao 😂🤣 MGS was one of my favorite games of all time

Pat Mac excretes supplements for other, lesser men, to take...

@@JamesHartnell not the answer I was looking for but was the one i didn't know i needed😂

@@JamesHartnell the ability to excrete supplements was one of the DARPA design features built into the MAC 3000. Sadly, the test model escaped the lab before it could be patented. In the brighter side, we now get to watch his videos.

@@tridelltransportation3603 😂😂😂😂

Same ones as Chuck Norris

It's the same thing. CAG is just another name for it.

@Antoine Brosseau what’s smu?

Secret military unit 😂

CAG or Combat Applications Group was a label given to the SFOD-1 unit in the early 2000s. After 09-11, Bush & his DoD team said; "let's streamline, re-set the upper level tier 1 units to have direct access". CAG later became ACE. The Navy after the bad Marcinko SEAL 6, Red Cell mess 🗂 said; let's rename it Development Group or Dev Gru. The SEALs go thru "Green Team" or selection then are assigned to a squadron. It was gold, blue but after 2010-2015 era more SEALs were added.

@@DavidLLambertmobile thanks

Probably in the same way the Unit is different from ISA.

FOR HELGHAN!!!

Awg was effectively a think tank…

Yes, no. Army Special Forces aka Green Berets used to manufacture what they needed back in Vietnam, which is where they learned a lot of tactics from the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army. One has to remember, Pat is like 57/58, so times were different during his time I service. The advent of 911 really got research and development for special Operations going. For instance, I was an Army Ranger Infantryman. Before that I was a Nation Guardsman for 6 years (a NG contract is 6 years) to pay for my University studies. While at University I studied industrial arts or technology education which is fancy for shop teacher. I was on the wrestling team also. Taught school for 2 years. When I decided I wanted to enlist in the army active duty on a option 40 (Army Ranger)contract my schooling paid dividends. I had a minor in metallurgy/machining so I would fabricate or alter numerous equipment. You just do what you have to

To be clear, J-SOC or SOCOM based in MacDill AFB in Tampa Florida runs the upper end SOF units. SecDef Rumsfeld and Bush changed the upper level special ops units around 2005. Special operations units by law have separate funding, budgets 🗂, procurement policy than "line" units, "Big Army". The DoD or NSC(CIA) can add or fund projects, mission support as required. SF guys, Air Force STS, MARSOC, DevGru, etc all get funds outside of normal DoD budgets.

Delta was based off the SAS when it was created, from an organizational structure standpoint. That was in 1977. A lot has changed in Delta, the SAS, America, Britain, and the world as a whole since then. War is where you get good at war. The United States was actively engaged in 2 major wars for nearly 20 years. Delta in 2022 is superior to what Delta was in 2000 because of the lessons learned in combat. Something to keep in mind when commenting about who the "best in the world" is.

@@ffryan ill keep it in mind but ill still say it thanks. Dont forget, the US were not alone in those wars. 😏

@@Senseigainz Delta > SAS 🤫😉

@@jorgegabrielgarciagutierre1722 👍

I have nothing to do with Delta. But Ive been a huge fan of the 22 SAS since I was a teenager in the eighties. Read a lot of books about the SAS. Ive read stuff written by SAS guys complaining about Delta as being too macho acting, like too much testosterone driven behavior compared to SAS. Whether that's really true I have no idea. My impression of SAS is they work direct under the British high command with no in between layers of management or bureaucracy whatsoever. SAS plays no games whatsoever, but also not macho acting...just go fast and get the job done. SAS has kind of a paranoid aspect to it, mild paranoia is good if you are operating deep deep behind enemy lines like SAS does. Paranoia equals violence at the target.

There wasn't a lot of things force fed on you. Force fed meaning that they didn't force instructions or directives on you, you have to work it out yourself

All branches can try out, so yes.

The USMC now has MARSOC or Raiders. They have new occupation skill identifiers, new logo-badges, new chain of command. What was "Delta"(the Unit was disbanded in 2005 by SecDef Donald Rumsfeld) became CAG then later ACE.

@@DavidLLambertmobile Yeah, I know all that but a Marine that was said to be a Unit member was awarded a Navy Cross for his actions during the Benghazi incident. That was back in 2012 and MARSOC was created in 2006. So I'm thinking Marines can join Delta.🤔

@@irunwiththedead9777 They can. Todd Opalski, for example. Some USMC MOS can apply for the Unit.

@@irunwiththedead9777 Yes anybody can try out from any branch. Jamey Caldwell said a member of his Squadron had been a hardhat diver in the Navy before joining CAG.

Just use a pecan picker. Picks up brass without the hassle

@kdaltex Or a butterfly net. The net is soft and supple, so it catches jumping brass bunnies quite well.

According to Kyle Lamb and Tom Satterly, yes. Early 90s. They may not have been off the shelf skate brand but many companies make stuff for military and don't broadcast it. But could just as easily been from academy sports and outdoors.

didnt the SAS boat troop got outsourced an reorganised as the SBS?

@@sugandesenuds6663 Nope. SBS has existed for eons.

@@sugandesenuds6663 the SAS also have their own boat troop, I guess it's because the SBS might be deployed elsewhere when such a troop is needed.

Apparently that is based off a real life incident where the safety was not on. However there was also no round in the chamber. Black Hawk Down deliberately portrayed Delta in a certain way, to play into the drama of the movie. This was highly inaccurate as Delta and the Rangers had a great working relationship, as discussed by numerous guys who were there. T

Although many agree the Ranger Captain was actually a dick in real life. He also had issues as a battalion commander in the 10th Mountain division while deployed

@@rossg4788 true but CoL Steele was commanding 3rd BCT Rakkasans in the 101st ABN not the 10th MTN when he came under investigation for war crimes a team in his unit committed.

Hurry up and pass me that sign-in roster so I can dip out early

“I doubt very many delta folks are climate change deniers …” people always inserting their own politics in these videos. 🤦‍♂ You probably think they’re all a bunch of Prius driving vegans.

They’re likely intelligent enough to understand that “climate change” is a fact of earth and humans have little to no impact on it. 97% of scientists agree the climate is changing. They do not agree that humans are causing that change.

@@1970bosshemi Interesting. The climate has been in a perpetual state of change. Marius was talking out his 4th point of contact

Wtf how does climate change deniers have anything to do with this…?

>80% of combat arms ncos voted for trump, and its the same in special forces and rangers. if anything they are probably some of the most group oriented people in the country.
