You act like this is some kind of recent phenomenon that only SEALs do. It's definitely not. Veterans have been writing books about their experiences for a very, very long time. SEALs, Green Berets, Delta Force operators, Rangers, and regular old grunts, have all been writing books for a long time. Soldiers have been documenting their experiences for literally thousands of years. There are hundreds and hundreds books written by veterans of WW1 & WW2 alone. There are hundreds more written by Vietnam veterans. This isn't a new thing, nor is it anything that should be shamed or condemned. There are alot of veterans who want to tell their story, and there are alot of people who enjoy reading about it. All that "BUD/s hAs a CrEaTiVe wRiTiNg cOuRsE" stuff is ridiculous. SEALs represent an incredibly small percentage of combat veterans who have written books. It's not a new thing, and it's not a bad thing. Not to mention you think that this clown isn't writing any books? You think that he isn't cashing in on his military career and his experiences? You think he's not trying his best to become rich and famous and known for something, and using his career as a SEAL to lend himself credibility?

I knew a Marine Sniper who was operating in the same area at the same time as Kyle. Years later, I was visiting with my friend one night when a commercial for American Sniper played on the TV. My friend proceeded to tell me that the only way for Kyle could have gotten the kill count he was famous for was: 1. Kyle was lying about his actions. Or 2. Kyle was shooting a lot of innocent people. My friend, who I believe is a man of honor, stated he did not know what the truth was, but he did know that the book and subsequent movie had to have been BS.

Don't buy into all the book and movie fairytales. It is a different beast out there. As a whole the communities are great, but the younger guys seem to be on a different wave length.

When Eric said how a former BUDs instructor drowned a student when the instructor himself was not even qualified to drown proof test anybody reminds me of how 1 of my NCOs and how he treated me back in 2015. I was in Italy in HHC BDE Level in the CUOPS in the S-3 in the 173RD as a RTO. My section was told to go do pool PT. My NCO SGT Facklam led the PT session. He wanted us to dive in the deep end of the indoor pool on Caserma Del Din Gym for bricks. We did this for a few rounds. We then tread water for a few minutes with the brick and threw it back down to the bottom for the next guy to grab and then tread water with until everybody had done it at least once. I saw my opportunity to go down and get the brick next. As I did my NCO SGT Facklam went for it as well and I beat him to it. I swam up and began to tread water and then came over SGT Facklam and told me let’s do some survival water training. He then proceeded to mount on my back as I trusted him as my leader and then put me into a rear naked choke while I can barely manage to tread water with my own body weight which I then did much worse of course after having mounted his 200 Lbs on my back and was choking me while I was gasping for air and swallowing water almost dying and everybody watched him do it to me and said nothing in my defense. They reported nothing. I told the leadership and nothing happened. I told my fellow soldiers whom told other leaders in our WLC class and still nothing happened. No justice. I will NEVER again trust anybody with my safety and well being. I will from now report straight to the highest command without ceasing until justice is served and all those responsible are held accountable. It is not just the SEAL Teams it is everywhere.

His giggling and avoiding the pastor's eye to eye contact, and with lack of emotions of the lost of lives, whether they're enemies or friendlies, tells me that something is not in line with the truth. At one interview, he suddenly switch the subject by bringing up Carlos Hathcock (White Feather, a sniper legend of my era )as the greatest sniper ever lived. It looks like he was not too comfortable with the questions. To my 36 KIA brothers, may God provide a peaceful mansion for you all in His Heavenly Kingdom. SEMPER FIDELIS!!

Maybe that’s the reason Harwood chose the JtF2 ( Canada 🇨🇦)?? JTF 2 worked extensively with the U.S. 3rd Special Forces Group; one of their first missions in Afghanistan was what Harward described as "the first Coalition direct action mission since the Second World War." The joint operation with a team of Green Berets targeting a Taliban command node almost ended in disaster when a Chinook carrying JTF 2 operators was forced to make a hard landing near the target site.. While serving with Task Force K-Bar, Harward also stated that the JTF 2 team under his command was his first choice for any direct action.JTF 2 was based at the time in Kandahar Air Field

These are a great critique of the SEALs from their founding to the GWOT generation. Bottomline - look at all the people (former Army SOF, USAF SOF, civilian authors, etc) criticizing/correcting SEAL accounts of 'famous' battles/operations or infamous events; there is no other unit more heavily scrutinized. By all their accounts I tend to not believe the SEAL accounts as truly accurate, and the SEALs are the authors of their own mystique but are by far the ‘most professional’ SOF unit or Tier-1 unit they believe they are.

Hey Sir. Wondering how long you were an Infantry officer before you took the 18A route, and where you were. I imagine you only did platoon leader and XO time because you don't have a company command guide on displayed while you do have a platoon display behind you. Not sure how many officers who have done their company command time go to selection because they have only to continue to stay in long enough and they will get their BN command and on and on it goes because there are fewer and fewer capitans as so many 01-02 are branch detailed then the guys who did their four and decided the Army wasn't for them. Though I could be wrong about the numbers of 03s who go to selection.

There are a couple problems with pulling tabs (I can't talk about tridents). The command issues orders revoking the tab, but when the individual goes selling himself for the job he showed orders and certificates awarding the tab not those revoking it. If the hiring company doesn't do their due diligence then the person person keeps treading water. The other problem I observed Over my time in SF was that on several occasions, the officers that had revoked the tabs of enlisted personnel would later "f-up" and then simply be allowed to retire. On even though had his transgressions overlooked and went on to become a general officer.

We, Marines-and I was there, are the reason why it worked in Ramadi. We were the ones doing the fighting. Seals just looked for HVI/HVT. We patrol and fight 24/7

I worked with many SEALs over my near 20 years in SF, I met a lot of really good individuals however the organization has been flawed for a very long time. I heard many times from the SEALs I respected that once the UDT/VN guys were gone the teams really suffered. There are many reasons this situation exists but a big part is that the SEALs draw from a pool of candidates who have no tactical background unlike say the Army or Marines or even to a lesser degree the AF. The point here is that a SEALs candidate has to completely develop while going through BUDS and then on a team into an operator. He has to learn many things that his counterparts in the other services come into SOF already aware of. This creates issues as young SEALs don't want to learn "the basics" as they see them as archaic or "old school" yet they are vital to surviving combat. Another big issue is that because the SEALs are such a small (but expensive) part of the Navy, there is a very real tendency for its leadership to cover up and sugar coat issues and problems because big Navy leadership has little time for the type of heat SEAL problems can bring. In other words, big Navy is happy to end a lot of careers very fast when an issue develops without looking into the actual problem because there is a very real animosity between big Navy and the SEAL community. I will say that my hat is off to Eric, he has titanium balls to come out against these self proclaimed "legends". I have heard repeatedly about the shit Kyle did from Recon Marines who were on the ground with him, one flat out called him a Murderer. I heard all about the lone survivor BS from the Recce plt from 2/75 who were the guys who had to dig out the dead SEALs and recovered Latrell. Eric is absolutely right, if they do not unfuck this pretty soon the Navy is going to find a way to shit can them or reduce them dramatically.

Hi, I’m a woman in her 20s and I’m training to become a U.S. Navy SEAL. What advice would you give for women that want to be SEALs? If you had to go to BUD/S again, how would you prepare differently? What books or workout programs would you recommend? Most female SEAL candidates struggle with carrying the boats and logs, doing pull ups, having grip strength and completing the “Dirty Name” on the obstacle course. Also, a lot of female SEAL candidates break their legs or develop stress fractures. A woman made it to day 4 of BUD/S first phase recently but she quit on that day. That’s the farthest a woman has made it. Her BUD/S classmates told me that her class hated her and ran her out from under the boat because she was a boat ducker. Nine women have entered the SEAL pipeline since 2016.

I quit listening to Jocko when he joined every other anti Israel defending itself voice and called for the bombing of Gaza to stop and use special operations to deal with Hamas. Gaza voted for Hamas and enough Israelis were already killed in ground combat. I'm guessing Jocko didn't have a similar view when the 9/11 attacks occurred. Isreal is a lot smaller and many of the dead are known personally by even Jewish people in the US. I'm sure Jocko was outraged by 9/11 like the rest of us. But I doubt he knew people personally. Yet he didn't advise restraint. In fact he was getting his degree at the time in the Seaman to Admiral program and tried, like many I'm sure, to postpone that so he could go to war.

And for the "Oh, he must be jealous" crowd, Gormly commanded a SEAL platoon in Vietnam, was CO to ST2, and he also commanded ST6. His awards include the Silver Star, three Legions of Merit, three Bronze Stars (two in combat), The Defense Meritorious Medal, and a Purple Heart. And, yeah, he thought Marcinko was an assclown.

Since it’s SEAL training, you should probably be swimming just as much if not more. It’s not… a lot of complicated stuff, just. A lot. Simplicity can be difficult. All you have to do is keep going. Considering your limitations (no judgement, that’s just the case,) you’re gonna have a long way to go. I wish you luck. Here’s a list of movements that I think helped me: Squat Deadlift Lunges (replicates walking up a mountain, do lots of these) Push ups and lots of variations of push ups (you have to. It’s the nature of SOF, push ups are on all of your tests) Sit ups (same Idea, all your tests) Pull ups (you mentioned trouble with these, try using a band to support yourself and also a Lat pull down machine) Overhead press (logs/boats) High reps in all of this, then either run/swim or hike, pretty much every day. Start where you need to, not where you think you should be. Work your way up and do more over time. If you need to, spend years doing this before you go.

The only time I had to work with SEAL’s was early on in Bosnia in the mid 90’s we had a joke in 10th Group the SEAL stood for Sleep Eat And Lift Weights. This was during the counter sniper operations in and around Sarajevo. We could hardly ever get them to go out on missions. Then one of them didn’t clear his Sig pistol prior to starting to clean it and shot one of our guys in the chest. Luckily one of our medics was right there and saved him. I don’t think anything ever happened to that SEAL. The shipped the whole team out and they were not replaced. They were completely unprofessional and I was glad I never had to deal with them again after that. I’m sure that not all the teams were like that but that was my experience with the SEAL teams.

I’ve seen multiple units get removed from the AO or battle space completely. over speculation that turned out the guys were 90miles away in the other direction so they clearly didn’t do the infraction. . So it’s very questionable being this guy could’ve got them kicked out immediately. Any army/USMC officer could’ve initiated it. So now I’m asking why did they allow it? Did they like seeing the handy work? It’s very strange.

I read Jocko’s book and listened to a number of his podcasts and now it makes more sense why his elements had so many friendly fire incidents.

I dig the war room feel behind Eric. My man cave has framed maps too.

I was a Marine in the unit that was deployed to Ramadi to replace 3/8 in 2006. Hearing this makes me wonder just how much these guys’ actions resulted in additional hostility we encountered. 🤬

I don’t know why, I can’t explain it. But Jocko has always given me the fake/exaggeration persona/impression. And I’ve always thought he doesn’t come up with anything new. He just regurgitates shit that’s been around for a 100 years, he just has the look and Seal title, so people listen.
