I went to high school with this dude. Haven’t talked to him since. Played football with him, even then he was a different breed of dude. A little off, smart, tough as nails. The real deal.
To the TH-cam guy who might read this, I hope you have bad dreams and can’t sleep. As many ads that I had to sit through during this episode, it’s ridiculous that you aren’t paying the team house. 🦒
Actually a lot channels with content similar to this are running into issues with monetization after changes in Alphabets restructuring of how adsense pay outs structures etc...
I enjoyed hearing this story way more than I thought I was going to. What a wild chain of events lol. Daniel is a great talker/stiry teller, and really good interviewing/question asking to move the story. Awesome work guys
@@tyronetrump1612 personally never had to deal with them, but on Hollywood movies it seems like they somewhat helpful and you would think to a former ST six guy they would be even more helpful
@@gunnerwright7793 It's the real world, but it is strange. For us in Serbia there is the perception that US Embassy runs Serbia lol. Cause for example the only reason Gay Pride Parade happen in Serbia is the West and US Embassy in particular. The state brings out like 5k SF police to secure it, they weld the damn manholes etc. lol I would suppose he was just a golden goose for Vucic to milk for some nationalist propaganda "hey we got this murican spy he came to kill me omg" etc etc So I'm spitballing here but I guess pure propaganda value for him was enough to take some US Embassy heat for. I'm pretty sure he was never gonna use him in some Russia-USA exchange. We are surrounded by NATO and EU, officially we are neutral, realistically Serbia does what USA says 99% of the time. This was just 1% and USA obviously didn't care enough about this guy. Probably to make sure other ex SF know "you get caught doing contract work, we don't know you".
@@brankomilicevic6904 Serbia is the flashpoint for NATO vs Russia. Its sad they demonize Russia. NATO/USA/Israel dont want Russia into Western economy and EU. follow US/NATO and Serbia will have more lgbt parades. Ally with Russia and you can keep your Christian values.
As someone who has never served I have a thoroughly unimportant general question about the military. It seems that in the last 15 or 20 years, in press conferences the military has started mispronouncing “military cache.” They are pronouncing it as kaShā (which would be spelled cachet and means respected or admired). Cache should be pronounced cash. Weapons cache, computer cache. I find it embarrassing for the country when a General mispronounces the word in a press conference. Once again I know this unimportant and I’m not trying to knock anyone. Just trying to find out if anyone knows how or why that happened.
@@Bizarreparade once the generals start mispronouncing everyone else kind of has to fall in line so as not to piss off a General. Interesting one officer could have caused the whole thing. 😂😂😂
I swear I remember reading about the Serbia incident on the wikipedia page for Spear Operations Group after the Dale Comstock episode where they talked about this, but that part is not included in the wiki anymore and doesnt show up in the edit history.
He's obviously saying "Nikola", not Nikolai. Sometimes in Serbia Nikolai is used but realistically not really since it's basically old Slavic language for modern Nikola. In Russia there is a lot of Nikolai's tho, in Ukraine for example Nikola is Mikola etc.
Well…this was freaking interesting. Welcome home frogman. I once got scammed in a used car deal by a first generation Serbian American who served in the army in Iraq, and then later owned a weed extracts company in Denver. I had flown in from Texas to buy the car and drive it back. He had lied to me about a fresh head gasket that he had a receipt for… The head gasket was actually blown, but I trusted the papers that he gave me and his word instead of checking the coolant myself. That was the second car deal where I either got scammed, or there was an attempted scam by an Eastern European guy. The other guy was Slovenian…
Good info. I like his story about not wanting to hang out with nerds even though he was smart, lol. I had to get the SOF bug out of my system before I went to flight school for the exact same reason. Good stuff.
Could you guys please consider not laughing directly into the mic. Its irritable hearing that when listening to your pod before sleep. Anyways good pod. Thanks

Glad every operator is not showing their face, writing books and staying quite professionals these days.
Just the fast operators
Hey guys, always wanted to know who voices the opening theme? Love it
Ian scotto

Funniest show ever,well im dirty....😅
The Serbian incident makes me very sad about our embassy not helping him
you mean you are surprised???

Isn't Isaak the SEAL that shot BUD's students when he was an instructor at SQT? Pretty sure he was booted from the military after that.
was Malachi the infamous Avraham Golan?
Undoubtably

It's interesting if not important. I know slang words, and small seemingly unimportant inside jokes spread faster than wildfire in the military

What an interesting point! I will admit that I have started pronouncing douche as doo-shay instead of doosh. I feel it makes more of an impact.
Sounds like that Yemen job was quite the cluster…..
Is the bald dude drunk?
I was hoping he would have stories of working with Dale Comstock (American Badass), but I guess their time didnt overlap.
It did, Dale said he was a good dude, but did not how to do basic stuff like riding a dirt bike.
Malichai right?
Recently caught anither show with Dale where he talks about Billy Waugh in the Afghanistan 😂
I can never catch these live anymore due to my new work schedule
Miss yah in live chat

Man that’s crazy a tier 1 operator contemplating with his mother what to do job wise after his career shows him the door.
Thanks gentlemen
Dale Comstock was certainly 80's porn star guy.
Great job !!
Great interview! God bless this man!
Have gun will travel wire; Paladin San Francisco 😅😅

You are a good man, thank God you are an American. Take care.
He ‘ honestly’ didn’t know who ST6 were , even though he was in ST5 at the time??😅
Military needs help of letting you know whats out there.
He's obviously saying "Nikola", not Nikolai. Sometimes in Serbia Nikolai is used but realistically not really since it's basically old Slavic language for modern Nikola.
In Russia there is a lot of Nikolai's tho, in Ukraine for example Nikola is Mikola etc.
SEAL Team 17 “AKA Geriatric Seals. 😅 Kinda like the Old Miami Dolphins team. A bunch of “old men” who would put you in the hospital or worse..
So he contracted for Mossad?
Another incredible episode!

How is it that every SEAL is the youngest guy?? Don’t mind DJ Shipley.
“First deployment straight to Afghanistan, we were in Ramadi, Tal Afar “ 😂😂 Two different countries brah !!!
@@davidparke7813 he’s saying ramadi and tel afar aren’t in Afghanistan they’re in Iraq
@@tryptaman4315 ah, my bad

Such a cool life story
Thanks for Your service! It takes a special breed to perform ar that level. My buddy Sgt. Whitey was such a man. For 6 years in country.
This is one of my favorite interviews - any channel. Phenomenal and charismatic story teller. Fascinating life.
Buying the book.

But why was he really in Serbia, that is the question.
He was sent there to get "dirt" on a certain citizen that they were trying to "turn". Bout as much as you can know.
He was investigating a terrorist financier for a private contracting company
Seals=gay
seals would tear you up😭😭
@@jtdilauro i think he would like that too
