      For Corpsmen and Medics this is the hardest pill to swallow. Sometimes you do everything right, you've got a patent airway, you've got the bleeding under control or stopped, you get the IV started (no problem), you've treated for shock you've called for a medevac and they still die. After that, a LOT of guys (Corpsmen/Medics) beat themselves up and wrack their brains thinking, "what didn't I do?". And after all the self reflection most times the answer is...."nothing......I did nothing wrong....I did everything right, and everything I could".

      my grandpa was a SEAL in Vietnam. He only told me one story when we were drunk. Him and 3 other people were being extracted by swcc so they had to jump in a river to get to the boat and my grandfather was suppose to be the first one on the boat, but he had to fix his rifle to his back so his bestfriend went up first and right when he stood up his head blew up from a sniper right in front of my grandfather.

    “I’ll tell ya, I talked to a lot of guys in your platoon from Ramadi. They’d follow you to hell and back if they had to. They loved you.” May be the highest level of praise, to hear from someone that you idolize that the people you lead into combat had such a high level of praise for you.

    Rodger the Dodger is badass!!
    One of my friends in college ben, his grandfather is a Vietnam Medal of Honor Recipient - Navy Seal & Nebraska's 35th U.S Senator Bob Kerry, Gaduated (BUD'S) class 42 in December 1967 served with Rodger Hayden in Vietnam when I had the GREAT HONOR to meet Bob, he chatted & talked with me and his grandson for hours about vietnam and he talked alot about a guy named Rodger, he talked about him like he was some sort of a superhero! He said he was one of the best soilders he ever served with and knew, which is an extremely impressive thing to have said about you by a Vietnam Medal of Honor recipient!!!
    He also said I sure am glad he was on our side! Lol he said he use to call him Rodger the Dodger, because he was always dodging them bullets lol
    I'm so stupid that I didn't realize until halfway into this podcast when Rodger talked about serving with buds class 40,41 & parts of 42 & 43 is when I realized that this was the rodger that my friends grandfather had been talking about all those years ago when he sat and told us all those stories.

      @@Memento--Mori Yeah.... Except for the fact that now you fight wars because you've spent the last 100 years pissing in everyone else's cornflakes and starting wars where there need not be any, and you guys are usually the ones to fire the first shots, which is not a virtuous action to say the least. The only enemies you guys have are the enemies that you manufactured yourself by pissing people off the world-over.
      To add... America hasn't won a war in literally over 60 years. You guys are great at starting wars these days, it seems, but you are really bad at winning them. As you said, you guys have been fighting wars since your inception. You'd think you guys would have learned how to actually win a war, given all the "practice" you've had at it. As a nation, America needs to tread real fucking soft at this point, or else they're gonna find themselves in a real shit-fight that they no longer possess the capability to win, and they will lose *badly*.
      I know not when, where or how the third World War will happen, but one thing I do know is that we (meaning members of NATO) will not come out on the winning side of it, if there even is a winning side at that point. Mutually-Assured-Destruction is still in the play-books at this point, keep in mind. In a true Peer-Force war, which America has not experienced since Korea, If things are going bad enough in "conventional operations" for one side or the other, with a war that big going on, it's almost inevitable that the "losing" side will go Nuclear. It's the logic of "if we go down, all of you go down too. All the way down."
      So I must say.... Stop poking the bear you fools! You will not come out on the winning side if this new Cold War goes hot.

I've heard black dudes and white dudes talk crap back in forth and just think it's funny how the old dude says "o no you won't" and he wasn't kidding hahaha. I know guys that I worked with in a pack house that were just like him. Respect get respect.
