I don’t know how the algorithm brought this channel to me but it’s great to see what you’re up to. I was in class 278 with you and life choices led me to leave at week 7 of phase 1 and that one choice turned my life for worse one mistake after another and it’s never been the same. It feels like a life time ago but it’s funny what an impression you made and I remember how funny you were and keeping the mood light
As a US MARINE,I went to Coronado Amphib school in 1987. I had the privilege of watching a BUD/S class start hell week. We would finish our training, and we go up on the berm and watch the buds carry the logs to the surf zone. We'd constantly be hearing bells going off, and we knew what that meant. By the middle of the week, the platoon was about half. We're going to the chow hall about the same time the buds and we would watch them eat their Chow super fast and then take a 5 minute nap. Then they go out and relieve the guy guarding the IBS. Me and a friend pretended to talk to each other, but instead we were talking to one of the boat guards, standing parade rest with an oar and his Mae West vest. He told us they were doing night navigation on the boats, and they got lost and the instructors left them stay out there allnight. He was shivering like mad. We told him he was almost there, and to stay motivated. And that we were going to be looking for him specifically to finishing the training. The day before the end of hell week, we saw instructors leading a few buds to the chow hall. They were hurting bad. And there's only like 10 of them, and there were five instructors. Definitely hardcore. Definitely glad they're on our side. Definitely glad they're part of the department of Navy along with US Marines.
Dude. Thanks for the videos. My best friend is on blue squadron. The picture he sent me after securing 1st phase was hilarious to me. Swollen hands, brown T-shirt looking like a dress, and his big ol bald spot on the top of his head. I met tons of seals during his wedding. You dudes are the salt of the earth. Im appreciative of every one of you that endure this. God bless the white side and black side. Real men.
I live in Seattle, WA. Went to Coronado with my ex wife 10 yrs ago on a vacation. I remember looking over at the Naval base and saying to myself, "I'm having dinner with my wife while those young men are training through hell." I've felt like such a p*ssy ever since. The mental fortitude that it takes to go what you guys go through is something that 99.99% of people will never understand or appreciate. God bless u.
What a guy, just finished my freshman year at a military college, couldn’t imagine what you went through mentally and physically. Until you are really tested to your max you cannot not comprehend it
Your explanation of this phase of SEAL training is the best that I have ever heard. The movies have never come close to portraying it. Thank you for your service. BTW I came here because of a shout out from Appalachian Homestead. I'm a 20 year Army Vet.
Great channel. I graduated 125 Nov 83. Its so funny to hear your recollections of Hell Week and 1st phase. I remember the timed runs started in soft sand, but everyone went down by the water where the sand was compacted. Log PT was a ball buster. IBS on our heads for most of 1st phase, that was rough. How about the hours long paddles to Mexico, and around the world the last night of Hell Week. Running up and over the f berms with the IBS sucked. And everything(!!) during 1st phase was a race. It pays to be a winner. BUD/S is the only training, I think, that Zero's and enlisted train together. I just found your channel and find it very informative. Thanks!
This might sound weird, but I love the cadence of how you talk man. It's very peaceful. You add the accent and it sounds like your'e reading your life out of a story book. Keep up the great work with these videos. From the jingle of the opening slide to the ending, each of these videos have been enjoyable to watch and mentally prepare with. Thank you.
And the training never stops even after you get your Trident. Thank you for your service Chad. Our boy is on a team currently and absolutely loves the punishment but loves the job more!

I witnessed this first hand and have to say it was unreal...the wounds on these guys bodies during this training are brutal to see..hats off to anyone who even attempts this..
I was stationed on the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk from '93-'98, when she was docked at North Island. I still remember seeing a buds class giving it hell when we would go to Imperial Beach. I always said a little prayer for the guys out there trying to become something more than themselves. Just like he said, everywhere they were going, they were running. It's amazing what these men have to go through, but then again, the ones that make it through the entire training, are the true definition of BADASS!!!
Funny I went through Sea Indoctrination School right before going aboard the USS Kittyhawk as a young Marine and we got to use that area for some of our training. Part was water survival and we got to use the rubber boats and other gear. That was in 1976
I know a guy on the teams. Very smart guy, very "normal" guy. Family man and just a great human. Crazy to hear what he went through to earn that Trident.
Enjoying these videos, dudes could go on for hours sharing stories and talking about this it’s a calming soothing thing to just sit in the back yard and listen in
I went through AF basic in ‘78. 12 pushups, 12 jumping jacks, 12 of everything and a quarter to mile and a half run. 20 rounds through an M16 (original M16) that jammed every 4-5 rounds. And it rained the day before the obstacle course and filled it with water and mud so they cancelled it. It was a breeze. Turns out you don’t need to be a medieval warrior to work on missiles. 😎
Went through AF basic in 81. Prior to going my cousin had went and washed out, said the physical fitness was brutal. So I got in incredible shape. Never so disappointed in my life, got my ass chewed out during first set of push-ups. I was doing 300 a day. Gained 20 lbs, friggen ridiculous.

Chadd how many people Excel at the training and get through it and are not brainwashed. Thank you for having to balls to speak against the military industry complex and our corrupt government. Thank you.
I was in class 99. I retired as a BMCS / SEAL / 5326. Day five of Hell Week I was transported to Balboa Hospital with a 104+ fever. Toxix infection. Given a choice...start day one / week one with c\Class 100, or go ride a ship. I shaved my head and started all over again, Class 100...120 start, 9 originals walk away. Instructor for classes 130 - 160, Weaps and Expl Phase, was Third Phase back then. BUD/S Training iS NO FKG JOK. If, in unlikely event you graduate SEAL Training, there is another year long Special Qual Training you MUST PASS, otherwise...adios. It all just gets louder, colder, dirtier, heavier...did I say louder...oh yeah, deeper darker that comes with its own critters...the Tigers seems to have a special affinity for me, I have no idea why....hehehe.
Hey brother @jessecarlock7567, It's Rambro! Class 106 and 3rd Phase instructor with you. I saw brick walls on that around the world paddle, FKG brutal! Just because you finished the first two phases doesn't mean the pain stops. Welcome to San Clemente island where no one can hear you scream. I like the videos Chadd puts out, solid teammate and funny as hell.
Wow. Hard to imagine not only going through that but successfully accomplishing that entire program. Congratulations on those huge accomplishments and thank you for your valuable service!
Hearing how hard this was is brutal because if I'm honest with myself, I don't think I'd make it, and I'm only saying "I don't think" to leave room for God's intervention. Hats off to you brother. I wish you all the best. Also, I just found your channel and I apologize if you've already addressed it, but I'd like to know a little more about what you actually used to keep going psychologically. Is there something you said to yourself when it got beyond-the-pale tough?
It’s so amazing to hear these stories about buds. I try to think that I could have the will power to push through buds when I was younger. Then I hear these stories and really question if I could do it. I feel that I wouldn’t be able to do it after hearing this and I would feel like a complete loser. I feel bad for the ones that didn’t make it. It has to be very hard to go through life knowing you failed at buds especially if it was your dream to be a seal.
First day in indoc, jogged up to my class in a fresh clean pickle suit with extra starch on my cap, on the beach as they were just wrapping up abs. Formed up for a run down to the fence and back past the cays and to the Hotel Del. About half way back, being ill-prepared for boots in soft sand, nerves of being so new and a big lunch, I fell back, went to my knees and lost that lunch. An instructor kicked me in the butt and told me to get my @$$ moving. Throwing up is not a good enough reason to stop running. I remember this so vividly 30 years later because it was the first moment I started the process of realizing what I had gotten myself into.... Thanks for the walk down memory lane...
I am amazed by this and by your service thank you for your sacrifices. I am possibly more amazed with your finding Jesus. I Found Jesus in Baghdad, on patrol we observed outgoing hostile indirect fires - I reached into my bag to grab the SOI in order to get the BCT for the area we were in , I pulled a page out of a prayer book - I didn't exactly have the time to read what I grabbed what page I tore out - Later when we got back to the FOB and it was Luke 12:25-31 "Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life[a]? 26 Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest? ... " I had always been a believer, this broke me down. Thank you for all you have done and all you continue to do.
Another awesome video man!!! When you mentioned you could sit for 2 hours and talk about your bud/s stories my first reactions was thinking how great that would be. Thanks for making these badass videos for us.
I knew this was the toughest training in the world but I always assumed it was somewhat safe like they weren’t actually going to let you die. I guess I was wrong.
My father was in the Navy during Vietnam. During basic training, when they were doing exercizes in the pool, people drowned, so no, don't assume that you won't die.
I love that it's such a ridiculously grueling and difficult thing to do and it's called "basic" underwater demolition training. Doesn't sound like there is anything basic about it lol
"Everywhere you went, you ran with this fickin boat!" LOL.... We civilians can't even comprehend what you guys went through for our country.... and this is just the training before you even see combat! THANK YOU!
Knew a guy that got severely injured running with the boat. Guess another guy slipped and the boat slammed him in the head so hard that he broke a vertebrae. He got rolled until he was healed but couldn’t recover and dropped with a life long injury. The boat running is no joke.
The water off the Hotel Del is always cold. Beautiful views of Point Loma, IB south and Channel Islands. I swam without a wet suit many times only got somewhat comfortable in Aug July. I was stationed at NAS Coronado and honestly loved the beach there. You could walk down past the hotel south and at chain link fence barely make out BUDs on the beach training. Every now and then their swim exercises would bring them closer up and was cool to see them getting ripped out of the water by zodiac craft.
My 36 year government military/law enforcement career seems like a nap compared to that. God bless you and all the men who have and will endure such a sacrifice. It’s like I always told my children when I was raising them…that which is worth obtaining is difficult.
Man! We have almost an identical pack, aside from I carry 2 sawyer squeeze filters. The thread count matches smart water bottles. I bring a 30⁰top quilt from UGQ for sleep. And a gore tex shake dry rain jacket. It cost me $300, but it only weighs 4oz. Oh... and I bring yellow heet fuel additive and a titanium cat can stove.
Thanks for doing the best you could to describe what you admit is indescribable. Two things I hate, being cold and being wet. Glad I got to do BCT in the summer (U.S. Army 1972-74). Thank you for your service.
There’s a part of this training that needs to be discussed. You can have an iron will and never want to quit, but you also need the genetics. You have to have the physical and psychological make-up to withstand being pushed to those limits. This is where many fall short. They’re not “losers” or “quitters” per say and shouldn’t carry that stigma through the rest of their life. There’s a difference between wanting and being…living wisely means knowing what path to choose based on the “equipment” you’ve been issued.
Every guy there is genetically capable, it's a matter of who has the willpower to suffer and not quit, that's not genetic. The difference between a guy who wants to quit badly and continues to put one foot in front of the other, vs a guy who wants to quit badly and quits, is mindset. Every seal who talks about who makes it and who doesn't says the same thing, it's about willpower, those in selection don't need to have the best this or the best that. As long as one has the mindset and are willing to suffer, one can make it. Aside from being kicked after repeated severe injuries. Never once has a navy seal said it's a matter of genetics, they have the complete opposite takes.
I regret that I didn't join the military, I believe that my life would have been very different. I just trying to get and stay outta the gutter. Amen brother.
I think an important part that you're leaving out is the condition you were in prior to starting buds. I understand mind over matter but you can't get a overweight out of shape dude to run a marathon strictly by will power. There are limits to everyone's capabilities. You make it sound like mental toughness is the key when I think a more accurate assessment is that the SF teams are highly unique both physically and mentally. That's the part that's so impressive to me. You're all Basically Olympic caliber guys with incredible fortitude.
Good point. The screen process is not easy at all. Swim, Run, etc. If you can meet the minimums, you have the ability to make it. BUD/S starts off slowly, during pre-training. By the end of 1st phase, you are doing hundreds a push ups a day. And hundreds of flutter kicks. The one thing they cannot gauge on an applicant, is determination. To not quit when you are really cold and wet, tired and exhausted.
I was a marine attending RIP school at Coronado decades ago. The guys across from us were awake one morning at 0200 screaming and running around outside with telephone poles lol. Our Navy instructor told us they were just starting hell week.
My wife didn't sleep for 5 days one time and she started hallucinating this girl was making whole meals for people that wasn't there it scared the crap out of me and my young son he was about seven at the time I literally had to take her to the hospital and they finally gave her medicine and they said this is what happens when people don't sleep they hallucinate but this is just because my wife was sick mentally she has passed on now she was 42 when I woke up found her deceased but just a simple fact that you made it through the Seal team says something about you not a lot of people can say they are a seal so you always have my respect and thank you for your service
I went through Ranger School and sleep and food deprivation is the name of the game there too but not anything like the seal training. I do however remember going on 2 or less hours of sleep and maybe an MRE that never tasted so fucking good 👍
I've read several books written by team members and untill you mentioned I've not thought about actual one on one pissed off knuckle and skull bouts nor remember reading of any. I'm not surprised to hear it now though. Van fights excluded.
Cheers...how awesome is that! I must of rewinded this vid fifty times...wait what...cuz I've never heard of anything like this. Very interesting...congratulations!🤙
I used to go to church with this young guy who was a Seal. That summer the Olympics were in Los Angeles (just a few years back). This Seal says, I'm going to go see the summer Olympics and I'm going to ride my bicycle there. We lived in Rhode Island!
Good morning Chadd, Michael Brearley here , let me tell a tale , back when I was a United States Naval Sea Cadet Corpse, I got my Two week duty order for united States Naval Underwater Special warfare Group 2 training at U.S. Naval Amphibious Base ,Coronado, California. My Naval Sea Cadet Contingency completed all the course evolution,s that was talked about , ibs coastal reconnaissance,(patrol,) and beach landing I I am just about able too hear ya on the weight of the ibs, especially when I am 168 lbs surf wet and 5"10 and 16yo. It was a rush , a total team rush , what a day and ibs crew insertion and water pick up with the rubber band looped around the shepherd,s crook of the arm sure made anchors aweigh sound with all crew recovered , that is a able seaman memory that guides me through my life , makin sure all creen are safe and ashore, the 21 course obstacle course was a hoot , me and my teammate (Lawrence Baker,) made the course in 10.minutes 27 seconds for me and 10 minutes 47 seconds for Larry, Larry became a Scientist that worked Seattle Cancer Research in Seattle, hoo ra, .I can remember the buds, instructors taught us too survive for Life , God Blessed Us with those strong and Brave Men of the Sea , that is for sure ,, we trained in the war room on the shore side of the road , after we meet and greet, and give our pat on the cap ,seal/froan when we past those steel doors and into our time with the teams, remember it was just two weeks training ,so we touched on all the course training, thank you for all your time Mr. Wright, Always able Michael Brearley U.S.N.S.C.C Airman 1978-1982 One of our Guardian,s of our Seven Seas
@10:30 - A nautical mile is 1.15 miles; therefore 4 nautical miles is 4.6 regular miles. If you run this in 32 minutes you are basically running a 7 minute per regular mile pace.
Digging the hat. I love Western hats or Western fedora styles. American Hat Makers makes some awesome lids. Outstanding customer service too! I rock the white Barcelona Sun Hat frequently. Anyway, I always wonder what my fathers training was to be a Green Beret with 3rd Special Forces Group in Vietnam 1968-70. He saw some nasty stuff and recieved the Bronze Star with 'V' Device, two Air Medals and two Army Commendation Medals for it. Obviously he could throw some weight because his arms were massive.

@@jessee7334 You must have quit.
Wow. Hard to imagine not only going through that but successfully accomplishing that entire program. Congratulations on those huge accomplishments and thank you for your valuable service!
Thanks!
Hearing how hard this was is brutal because if I'm honest with myself, I don't think I'd make it, and I'm only saying "I don't think" to leave room for God's intervention. Hats off to you brother. I wish you all the best. Also, I just found your channel and I apologize if you've already addressed it, but I'd like to know a little more about what you actually used to keep going psychologically. Is there something you said to yourself when it got beyond-the-pale tough?
I’m thankful for your channel it keeps me from watching all the trash on social media
Love hearing this because you describe it like I never heard it before. Makes me get excited knowing about the unknown journey I will begin. Thank you
Thank you for your service sir, and protecting our country.
It’s so amazing to hear these stories about buds. I try to think that I could have the will power to push through buds when I was younger. Then I hear these stories and really question if I could do it. I feel that I wouldn’t be able to do it after hearing this and I would feel like a complete loser. I feel bad for the ones that didn’t make it. It has to be very hard to go through life knowing you failed at buds especially if it was your dream to be a seal.
Thank you for sharing your experience in becoming a Navy Seal! I cannot fathom what you went through. Thank you for your service!
First day in indoc, jogged up to my class in a fresh clean pickle suit with extra starch on my cap, on the beach as they were just wrapping up abs. Formed up for a run down to the fence and back past the cays and to the Hotel Del. About half way back, being ill-prepared for boots in soft sand, nerves of being so new and a big lunch, I fell back, went to my knees and lost that lunch. An instructor kicked me in the butt and told me to get my @$$ moving. Throwing up is not a good enough reason to stop running. I remember this so vividly 30 years later because it was the first moment I started the process of realizing what I had gotten myself into.... Thanks for the walk down memory lane...
I am amazed by this and by your service thank you for your sacrifices. I am possibly more amazed with your finding Jesus. I Found Jesus in Baghdad, on patrol we observed outgoing hostile indirect fires - I reached into my bag to grab the SOI in order to get the BCT for the area we were in , I pulled a page out of a prayer book - I didn't exactly have the time to read what I grabbed what page I tore out - Later when we got back to the FOB and it was Luke 12:25-31 "Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life[a]? 26 Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest? ... " I had always been a believer, this broke me down. Thank you for all you have done and all you continue to do.
Another awesome video man!!! When you mentioned you could sit for 2 hours and talk about your bud/s stories my first reactions was thinking how great that would be. Thanks for making these badass videos for us.
Your stories are so captivating, you really have to be a warrior to do what you have accomplished in life!
I knew this was the toughest training in the world but I always assumed it was somewhat safe like they weren’t actually going to let you die. I guess I was wrong.
😂
They don't let you die. Sometimes you simply die from exhaustion.

My father was in the Navy during Vietnam. During basic training, when they were doing exercizes in the pool, people drowned, so no, don't assume that you won't die.
I love that it's such a ridiculously grueling and difficult thing to do and it's called "basic" underwater demolition training. Doesn't sound like there is anything basic about it lol
I can’t imagine how you could stay awake for a week doing that. The mental toughness it must take.
Thank you for sharing, thank you for your service
Sounds like my south african basic infantry training in 1986 we did all that minus the water stuff but well done bro much respect from the old man
Was a Corpsman, not a Seal, a statement well known to be said by Seals," The only easy day was yesterday! " Thank you for sharing!
Pumped to be going in a few months, love the channel
All the best ⚡⚡
Ayy best of luck mate!
Big tip: Keep your world small - make it to your next meal.
Did you make it?
Did you make it?
That’s awesome!!! Also just saw chadd at our wildgame dinner at church! Was a great speaker with a great message.
I am training for special operations, thank you for this video it really helps.
"Everywhere you went, you ran with this fickin boat!" LOL.... We civilians can't even comprehend what you guys went through for our country.... and this is just the training before you even see combat! THANK YOU!
Knew a guy that got severely injured running with the boat. Guess another guy slipped and the boat slammed him in the head so hard that he broke a vertebrae. He got rolled until he was healed but couldn’t recover and dropped with a life long injury. The boat running is no joke.
The water off the Hotel Del is always cold. Beautiful views of Point Loma, IB south and Channel Islands. I swam without a wet suit many times only got somewhat comfortable in Aug July. I was stationed at NAS Coronado and honestly loved the beach there. You could walk down past the hotel south and at chain link fence barely make out BUDs on the beach training. Every now and then their swim exercises would bring them closer up and was cool to see them getting ripped out of the water by zodiac craft.
Brother mad respect. Been watchin your channel and that helmet shot with a dip in says it all.
My 36 year government military/law enforcement career seems like a nap compared to that. God bless you and all the men who have and will endure such a sacrifice. It’s like I always told my children when I was raising them…that which is worth obtaining is difficult.
Thank you for your service sir and I'm pretty glad I came across your channel
Buds class 176, I have one of those certificates lol
175
Me too.
New subscriber here, thank you so much for your service! You guys are truly some of the most bravest men in our country and it's extremely admirable.
Man! We have almost an identical pack, aside from I carry 2 sawyer squeeze filters. The thread count matches smart water bottles. I bring a 30⁰top quilt from UGQ for sleep. And a gore tex shake dry rain jacket. It cost me $300, but it only weighs 4oz. Oh... and I bring yellow heet fuel additive and a titanium cat can stove.
There's a lesson here-Dave Castro, Jocko, Andy Stumpf, Leif Babin, Chadd, all "gray" men, middle of the pack guys and yet made stellar SEALs.
Thanks for doing the best you could to describe what you admit is indescribable. Two things I hate, being cold and being wet. Glad I got to do BCT in the summer (U.S. Army 1972-74). Thank you for your service.
Thank you for past and present service 🙏❤️ God bless
There’s a part of this training that needs to be discussed. You can have an iron will and never want to quit, but you also need the genetics. You have to have the physical and psychological make-up to withstand being pushed to those limits. This is where many fall short. They’re not “losers” or “quitters” per say and shouldn’t carry that stigma through the rest of their life. There’s a difference between wanting and being…living wisely means knowing what path to choose based on the “equipment” you’ve been issued.
You couldn't be more wrong. Even instructors can't predict who will graduate when looking at their initial behavior and physical type.
The key word is "selection."
Every guy there is genetically capable, it's a matter of who has the willpower to suffer and not quit, that's not genetic. The difference between a guy who wants to quit badly and continues to put one foot in front of the other, vs a guy who wants to quit badly and quits, is mindset. Every seal who talks about who makes it and who doesn't says the same thing, it's about willpower, those in selection don't need to have the best this or the best that. As long as one has the mindset and are willing to suffer, one can make it. Aside from being kicked after repeated severe injuries.
Never once has a navy seal said it's a matter of genetics, they have the complete opposite takes.
I regret that I didn't join the military, I believe that my life would have been very different. I just trying to get and stay outta the gutter. Amen brother.
❤
Thank you for your service and sharing your stories .Much respect for you sir.
My hat's off to you, mate.
From an old blue water sailor.
God almighty this was fascinating. So much respect. I felt privileged just having a chance to LOOK AT that certificate.
This was a fantastic account of your experience. I cant imagine going through that. And kudos for making it funny. Thats a great way to remember it!
I think an important part that you're leaving out is the condition you were in prior to starting buds.
I understand mind over matter but you can't get a overweight out of shape dude to run a marathon strictly by will power. There are limits to everyone's capabilities.
You make it sound like mental toughness is the key when I think a more accurate assessment is that the SF teams are highly unique both physically and mentally.
That's the part that's so impressive to me. You're all Basically Olympic caliber guys with incredible fortitude.
Good point. The screen process is not easy at all. Swim, Run, etc. If you can meet the minimums, you have the ability to make it. BUD/S starts off slowly, during pre-training. By the end of 1st phase, you are doing hundreds a push ups a day. And hundreds of flutter kicks. The one thing they cannot gauge on an applicant, is determination. To not quit when you are really cold and wet, tired and exhausted.
I was a marine attending RIP school at Coronado decades ago. The guys across from us were awake one morning at 0200 screaming and running around outside with telephone poles lol. Our Navy instructor told us they were just starting hell week.
Amphib Base Coronado NCO Club Gator Gardens best in So Cal -----> Thank you for your Blood , Sweat & Tears.
you are awesome sir. cheers from austin,tx!!
My wife didn't sleep for 5 days one time and she started hallucinating this girl was making whole meals for people that wasn't there it scared the crap out of me and my young son he was about seven at the time I literally had to take her to the hospital and they finally gave her medicine and they said this is what happens when people don't sleep they hallucinate but this is just because my wife was sick mentally she has passed on now she was 42 when I woke up found her deceased but just a simple fact that you made it through the Seal team says something about you not a lot of people can say they are a seal so you always have my respect and thank you for your service
the boat rubbing your head is funny , 23 years infantry for me , got a bunch of wear spots , lol
I was a recruit at Parris Island in 1980. That was my plan, to stay middle of the pack. Of course with a last name like mine, it didn’t work.
I never ran with a boat on my head but still bald 😂🤷♂️ thanks for sharing your experience with us. 👏
WOW! 😳 Thank God for guys like you and your service to our country!
You guys are maniacs. Much respect!
Training never stops and only gets harder - 'the only easy day was yesterday.' Bud/s 162...
You're one funny dude. Water snorting out my nose funny. Well done.
I love how your certificates are in a binder and not on a wall
I'm from San Diego. I used to go down to silver strand and try to watch them train.
I went through Ranger School and sleep and food deprivation is the name of the game there too but not anything like the seal training. I do however remember going on 2 or less hours of sleep and maybe an MRE that never tasted so fucking good 👍
Well said brother, much respect 🙏
I've read several books written by team members and untill you mentioned I've not thought about actual one on one pissed off knuckle and skull bouts nor remember reading of any. I'm not surprised to hear it now though. Van fights excluded.
Cheers...how awesome is that! I must of rewinded this vid fifty times...wait what...cuz I've never heard of anything like this. Very interesting...congratulations!🤙
I used to go to church with this young guy who was a Seal. That summer the Olympics were in Los Angeles (just a few years back). This Seal says, I'm going to go see the summer Olympics and I'm going to ride my bicycle there. We lived in Rhode Island!
6:42 😂 awesome indeed! Must have been great
More stories please! They are really interesting, i read and heared a lot about BUD/s.
Great stories Chadd! Thanks for enduring and continuing on.
Good morning Chadd, Michael Brearley here , let me tell a tale , back when I was a United States Naval Sea Cadet Corpse, I got my Two week duty order for united States Naval Underwater Special warfare Group 2 training at U.S. Naval Amphibious Base ,Coronado, California. My Naval Sea Cadet Contingency completed all the course evolution,s that was talked about , ibs coastal reconnaissance,(patrol,) and beach landing I I am just about able too hear ya on the weight of the ibs, especially when I am 168 lbs surf wet and 5"10 and 16yo. It was a rush , a total team rush , what a day and ibs crew insertion and water pick up with the rubber band looped around the shepherd,s crook of the arm sure made anchors aweigh sound with all crew recovered , that is a able seaman memory that guides me through my life , makin sure all creen are safe and ashore, the 21 course obstacle course was a hoot , me and my teammate (Lawrence Baker,) made the course in 10.minutes 27 seconds for me and 10 minutes 47 seconds for Larry, Larry became a Scientist that worked Seattle Cancer Research in Seattle, hoo ra, .I can remember the buds, instructors taught us too survive for Life , God Blessed Us with those strong and Brave Men of the Sea , that is for sure ,, we trained in the war room on the shore side of the road , after we meet and greet, and give our pat on the cap ,seal/froan when we past those steel doors and into our time with the teams, remember it was just two weeks training ,so we touched on all the course training, thank you for all your time Mr. Wright, Always able

ROFLMAO!
That picture is worth more than a thousand words buddy.
@10:30 - A nautical mile is 1.15 miles; therefore 4 nautical miles is 4.6 regular miles. If you run this in 32 minutes you are basically running a 7 minute per regular mile pace.
Nice area there at Coronado, Wm. S. Bucklew NSW but "they' sure ruin any idea's of vacationing...lol.
2005, class 253. Have mine on the wall. Once I even won Mr. O-course t-shirt! That was a great time! Actually, the best time in my life!
I would pay a large some of money to see that BUD's fight. Great video!
Digging the hat. I love Western hats or Western fedora styles. American Hat Makers makes some awesome lids. Outstanding customer service too! I rock the white Barcelona Sun Hat frequently. Anyway, I always wonder what my fathers training was to be a Green Beret with 3rd Special Forces Group in Vietnam 1968-70. He saw some nasty stuff and recieved the Bronze Star with 'V' Device, two Air Medals and two Army Commendation Medals for it. Obviously he could throw some weight because his arms were massive.
That’s why he lives in the south. Doesn’t get cold during winter. Winter is my favorite season by the way.
The I love me binder, classic 👍
