  • In October 2019, Delta Force and the 75th Ranger Regiment, with support from the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, conducted a mission in North-Western Syria in search of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. For the first time on TH-cam we detail the build-up, execution and aftermath of the mission that brought the worlds number terror leader to justice.
    This video is dedicated to the memory of Kayla Mueller.

    Hi everyone,
    Please be aware that at 6:32, the time I mentioned should have been 24:00, not 23:00. Trump arrived in the Situation room at approximately 17:00 (Eastern Standard Time) on the 26 October 2019. This would have been 24:00 (Eastern European Time) on the 26 October in Syria and 01:00 (Arabian Standard Time) on the 27 October in Iraq. Task Force 8-14 got into the air just after 24:00 Syrian time, not 23:00 as I state in the video.
    Also, to clarify the photo of Trump in the Situation room; despite scepticism over whether it was taken before, during or after the operation, the photo has been confirmed to have been taken at 17:06 (Eastern Standard Time) on the 26 October. Using the times I mentioned above, you can see Task Force 8-14 would've been taking off at approximately that time, confirming that Trump and the other officials were indeed in the room at the time of the operation.
    Thanks for your continued support over the past few weeks; we’re close to reaching 40,000 subscribers on the Channel which is amazing!
    I hope you enjoy this video and, if you did, please be sure to like, share and leave a comment and if you’re new to the Channel be sure to subscribe for future videos!

      The 75th Rangers conduct a lot of raids and have established a reputation amongst both civilians and within the military, but during these kind of missions, the Rangers are typically utilized in a security role in support of CAG, DEVGRU, GB, etc.
      From my understanding, Rangers typically have very kinetic deployments, and conduct frequent independent raids on mid level targets, as Rangers are easier to produce, whereas most other operators such as CAG or Green Berets take much longer and are more expensive to produce, so the missions in which they are utilized are more specific but less frequent.
      At the end of the day, all of the United States SOF operators are very good at what they do, and will never get the credit or acknowledgment that they deserve, but I like to think quiet professionalism kind of speaks for itself.

But not a lot of people serve in that type of job description, but let me just say that I PERSONALLY KNOW FOR A FACT, THAT MANY Military Trained working Dogs, HAVE SAVED THE LIVES OF SO MANY OF OUR MEN, MYSELF INCLUDED, and you won’t hear about them most of the time!! (I wasn’t even close to being his handler, but I didn’t have to be) BUT sometimes you will hear a story or a plea for Help, about a Veteran trying to get his “Working Dog” back when the K9 is basically “retired”, and if you ever do, I would beg that whoever is reading this to PLEASE do whatever you can to help Not Only that Human Veteran, BUT HIS K9 Veteran as well..... That bond is STRONGER THAN ANY WORDS CAN DESCRIBE!!! Just saying..... Look up Veterans getting reunited with they’re 4 legged military partners, and if those reunions don’t stir some feelings up inside of you, then I kinda feel sorry for your loved ones, because that bond between them is sometimes a LOT Stronger than Human bonds...

      Winston Delta and SAS can be compared as they’re tier 1. Rangers are tier 2 yet they have more kills since the start of the GWOT so by default they probably have more kills than any other country that’s taken part in the war. Yes Delta was created by an American who joined the SAS when it started and a lot of the ideas that were used to make delta were the same ones used to make the SAS. I’m not sure what you British guys know that nobody else knows about the SAS apart from they’ve been around longer than Delta which is the only thing I ever hear from SAS fanboys. Delta has been just as active since it’s creation, especially in the last 20-25 years fighting in the Middle East and Northern Africa they’ve 10000% done more combat operations than the SAS. Whether it’s hostage, raids, night raids, HVTs, Intel, full on man hunt, you name it they’ve undoubtedly passed up the SAS long ago and are far ahead. As for training they are for sure drastically different in aspects such as the SAS are also used as a federal counter terrorism unit as where we have FBI SWAT and HRT to rely on. Now that you know a bit of facts know this is more important, in a time of terrible war we’ll be killing, bleeding, and dying for one another and thats truly all that matters.

      The SEALs O’Neil and Bissonate got a lot shit for talking about Neptune Spear to the fact that they were forced into retirement and were put on the “Rock of Shame” at the Dam Neck base barring them from reunions. Yeah it was embarrassing for both DEVGRU & NAVSPEC. There was a lot of cracking down on those who were flapping their gums and many former seals came out saying how embarrassed they were. Here’s to them to going back to be “Silent Professionals” as they were before.

      "Most Delta Force operators are selected from the United States Army Special Operations Command's elite Special Forces Groups and the 75th Ranger Regiment, as well as from other special operations units." If they need support, makes sense they'd involve the Rangers and from what is semi-public, it seems it is not uncommon and this also pertains to other spec-ops teams with SEAL Team 6 recruiting SEALs and it seems they always have air support and the like on command should they need those resources.

      I could see it adapted into film, but moreso later on down the line as Hollywood is currently too left-leaning. Enough is declassified they could do something, but may as well do it right when and if an operator is able to work with the director/screen-writer. Black Hawk Down may not be surpassed for a non-fiction SFOD-D telling, but they could probably cobble something reasonable together for a feature length telling (though, it won't be a direct recounting I'm sure).
