For anyone like myself that has never really heard the details of the story.

13 min YouTube video


The 2 part podcast of Chris VanSant is very interesting & is about 5.5 hours long. Watched every minute of it & I recommend anyone interested in this kind of stuff to watch as Chris has a really good story.

YouTube Part 1

YouTube Part 2

Yep & after that he goes on to say that they all thought they were going to get a break to go home but were out doing hits the very next day

Chris VanSant is very interesting


It is amazing to think that this guy, who looks like the guy next door and someone I would not be scared to fight, could literally rip off my big toe and cut my jugular with the bone before I knew what was happening. LOL

God Bless America and our troops.

Sean Ryan has had some good guests…Roger Reaves’s story was unbelievable.

However, Chris Beck’s episode(trans SEAL), some of the shite that guy talked about is actually unbelievable.

I couldn’t tell if he was an amazing savant or a bullshite artist. I’m leaning towards the latter

I was stationed at FOB Outlaw in the “green zone”. These guys were stationed right around the corner from us. Saw them all the time coming in and out. We used to see them transport Saddam from Baghdad International Airport (BIAP) to the Al Rasheed in Baghdad where his trial was. We could see Saddam in the armored bus as they drove through our checkpoint. Pretty cool living that. I can’t imagine what these guys were feeling!!!

Sarcasm noted, I think.

Looking back, it was not worth it, but they did what they had to do and what they were ordered to do.
