Nobodys saying it but that fucking crew chief was a BADASS MF. To be able to have the presence of mind to pull a man back into the helo, then return fire AND pump the small bit of fluid into the hydraulic system to give the pilot 45-50secs of control oback over the craft is INSANE!!! SOME MEN TRULY ARE BUILT DIFFERENT. ON GOD.,🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤟🏾

I remember Neil Roberts on deployment with us back in the mid-90s on the USS Shreveport amphibious assault ship. We had Seal Team four on board for 6 month deployment with us even though he was on Seal Team two. He must have been augmented for deployment with team four. He would always be on the flight deck when we weren't in Flight quarters practicing with nunchucks and martial art movements by himself. I remember him plain as day. He was a real quiet guy who kept to himself.

These 160th guys are rock stars!!!!

In the 2010 video game “Medal Of Honor”,, one of the tier 1 operators you play is a character call sign “Rabbit” who was based on the both SEAL Neil Roberts and CCT John Chapman in the battle of Taka Ghar. Although not 100% accurate, that games campaign was all based around the 2002 Operation Anaconda in the Shah-i-Kot bowl of Afghanistan.

An E-4 PJ Jason Cunningham was shot, returned fire and continued giving medical care to others until he died in this firefight. Nobody seems to mention him

I read about this flight in the book. It's an honor to hear it told in person by Alan. Incredible bravery for your willingness to go back and incredible flying! Thank you for your service sir.

I was in AFSOC and worked with the 160th SOAR guys often. Absolutely the best pilots that exist. Their warrants are unreal. I was in Anaconda during this time it was 02. We were doing airdrop resupplies into Gardez and heard all this on the radios and were re-tasked many times and retasked to support this OP with Chapman

This is super interesting to hear his point of view we all heard the guys in the ground stories for years but never the pilots so great video thank you . Thank you to him for his selfless service

What a story! Damn. God Bless these Military people for doing what they do.

Lost controls,then they came back,not knowing if they'd go back out any second, without hesitation,head back to LZ for Roberts,.. Straight MFckn Hog status

It's not everyday you get to hear from some of the greatest human beings on the planet!!

160th Pilots, Flight Engineers, and Crew Chiefs.... Best aviators on the planet. Period. Neil Roberts (SEAL) John Chapman CCT - You fought hard, you fought well. Rest now. We are proud.

Where's the "exposure", where's the "truths"? This is a sensitive topic in the communities and the click-bait title is poor taste. You're going to lose respect from people in the know on that one. Hope it was worth it. David is fully aware of all the controversy around ST6/DEV's Britt Slabinsky's MOH. I'm a ''casual" fan of the community, this guy interviews and lives/breathes this stuff so when he pretends to not know if CCT Chapman got the MOH....it is completely disenguine. ALMOST as fake as the click-bait title as there were ZERO "truths exposed" discovered here in the opposing narratives that surround the MOH awards. The fact he used "truths" implies he's fully aware of the controversy. I've forwarded this link to a bunch of people who aren't going to be much a fan anymore.

Is there a link to the full episode? I’ve scrolled through and can’t find it.

That seal team leader should be ashamed of himself. Also you don’t “win” the Medal of Honor….

First off let me say thank you to this guy and all of his Bros over at the 160th store. These guys were our primary mode of transportation through Iraq and Afghanistan and you just knew they were going to get you there as safely as they could and they were always going to come get you out. They are probably the most professional and best Special Operations group that we have in the military. That's how good these guys are I feel confident in saying that and I've worked with every Special Operations team in our military from Delta guys to seals to Oda Green Berets MARSOC Marines you know coming from the 75th Ranger regiment 3rd Battalion we get to work with everybody period of which pretty much everybody does across Special Operations. But anyway these guys are phenomenal . But if you are into reading good books the 160th night stalkers book is probably one of the best books I've read on Special Operations groups it goes into amazing detail about how they were put together and all of the missions that they were on and involved in. Anyway Rules of Engagement. To be honest with you the United States is probably the only damn country in the world that abides by any sort of Rules of Engagement. It actually becomes pretty stupid at times when he says you had to be shot at to return fire it doesn't mean just them shooting in the air it had to be effective fire. Meaning round for coming really close to your ass. RLTW 3/75

Getting so tired of seeing these "exposed" videos about Robert's ridge. The information is all out there. Slab has come clean about his examination of Chapman before the retreat. The drone footage has been available for a long time. The cag guys on the opposing summit have their take well documented. The build up to the mission has been completely broken down and all that went wrong with it. Just feels disrespectful to the guys we lost to keep making videos with these titles. I've read macks book too. Lot of respect for him as a pilot.

You don’t win the Medal of Honor , you earn it. There how’s that

No a DSHK is 12.7mm whereas something that is 14.5mm is likely to be a KPVT.

12:02 miracle

Just a thought , but isnt there more than only ONE tether line for the crew in back ? If there was then for what reason would you not tether up in a active combat area ?

With the tools for situational awareness, it always helps if the Seals have their tracker turned on.. If they pull an Eddie Gallagher, then you can have fratricide. The fact that they didn't just means Gallagher got lucky, not that it was a good idea.

160th SOAR is the most under decorated unit in US Army history. Truly the best on the planet.

20 years and a trillion dollars later, and Taliban back in power with nice shiny US made weapons. 😂😂😂

Sorry, what truth has been exposed here? Click bait title. Shameful.

So much information exposed.

Dave, you should reach out to Tony Cowden to be on the show! I'm almost positive he'll be happy to do it.

I was in iraq and Afghanistan as a PMC. The soldiers liked having us around because we didnt have those stupid dont shoot until fired upon. Ridiculous

Experience. Brings. Skill. Thanks. For. Your. Service. Sir. Bob13. As. A. Ex. SF. You. Gentlemen. Help. Save. Many. Many. Warrior,s and. People. Why I ask. Do you. Fly boys. Keep. Jumping into. The.

160th are some bad boys. Plus or minus fifteen seconds TOT. Warrant officer pilots are the coolest MF’ers in the military.

Nothing exposed by this click bait title/video. David you should be ashamed of yourself.

When you flying so low chitt. You. Don't have time to wipe

I can barely enjoy the story with all these ads. I understand you want to make money but geez do you have to put 50 ads in every video?

Plus the skill, manipulation,& understanding of the aircraft,is fckn uncanny

That war meant nothing

Can we try to find a war we can win ? Too many warriors have died for shit these last couple of decades. Wayne - you’re supposed to stand firm for freedom and free speech man. Fuck, any firefight we’re in has hundreds of different opinions. KZfaq is just entertainment - not a confirmed source Thanks man. Best to all

Holy shit

NSDQ! SGDM!🇺🇸💪🏼🤙🏼

Wtf you dont win a moh you earn it but where are the truths this is click bait i love your channel but this aint ok

lol dont bring up the manpads cuz lord knows they didnt want anyone know about the sa7 the sold them years before. im so glad hes painting the right picture cuz all this shit and red wings is a fucking lie.

Im just over here wondering if john chapman was on the team that found marcus lutrell with all his ammo and gear and if thats the reason the seals left him to die on that mountain

Wasn't John awarded The Medal Of Honor twice?

Wope. All the. Enemy. Bob13

Bullshit story sorry. You were hit by an s7 anti aircraft rocket. You fail to mention that you were ordered to land at the hot point. There was no reason to try and land at that position. There wasnt not a time sensitive hostage situation. You were supposed to land about 4 miles outside and move on foot. I understand orders are top down but with 20 years you should have questioned that order

No mention of MSgt John Chapman, Air Force Combat Controller and Medal Of Honor receipient. He fought and died so the Seals could escape! He was left on that mountain!
