@@brandonhall5615 As one who is a veteran of the Marine Corps I can assure you that we are taught about Dan Daly and Schmedly P. Butler. They are 2 of the most famous Marines to have ever worn the uniform.
I had a friend in Mississippi and when I told him I was a Marine Vet he got a look on his face and said "Marines are trained killers " and he was right. Semper Fi to all my Marine Sisters and Brothers .
In the 28 years since I was in the Marine corps, Ive noticed that many people are literally taken aback- giving you a puzzled, startled reaction like theyre not sure what to think about someone crazy enough to be a Marine. More often than not, its been followed up with some sort of respectful comment. Thanks for serving, I really respect those that serve..... something appreciative. Ive also had a few people say what your friend said to you....Marines are trained killers. Whether we are or not, Ive never though of myself as a "trained killer", but a Marine. Siemper Fi
"Most Gangster Politician Of All Time" - that video was about 23,000% more informative about the abolition of slavery than anything I'd ever learned in school. And extremely entertaining as well. Definitely more than worth a watch. 👍
In response to the thought at the end, "why don't they teach this in school" is because the governmental bureaucracy doesnt want citizens to think like that or be inspired by that anymore. They want docile citizens who go along with what big daddy gov tells them.
The Fat Electrician's video about Cassius Clay is his best one. It's honestly sad that I wasn't taught about Cassius Clay in school because the man was a badass that was absolutely pivotal in American history. The country would definitely be different today without Cassius Clay.
You must be a young pup. Those of us that lived through the times of Cassius Clay think more of him as a traitor, fleeing from the country, in time of war, that provided him with the opportunity to excel as a boxer. I never had any respect for him. Yes, he was a good boxer, but he should never have been allowed back in the U.S. for his blatant cowardice.
If others are not shouting from the rooftops that you need to watch the Fat Electrician episode "The Most Gangster Politician Ever - Cassius Marcellus Clay" I don't know what is up... next best episode is "Winter Soldier OD's on METH, Becomes Unkillable - Aimo Koivunen"
They dont teach you about this crap because they dont want us united and free. I love the fact that young people are waking up. From an old Marine, thank you and SEMPER FI
The physics of getting shot with an arrow is wild; While if may fly 10 times slower than a bullet, it's usually 200 times heavier. the impact is crazy!
The one about Cassius Clay (not the boxer, the politician the boxer was named for) is my favorite of his. I learned so much about a guy who doesn't get enough credit for ending slavery.
You are right about taking an arrow out. If it went all the way through, you would brake the arrowhead off and pull the shaft out. If it didn’t go through, you would have to push it through, then break the head off. Arrow wounds were no joke. If the arrow didn’t kill you, the infection afterwards would.
For 12 weeks in early 1977, 18 year old me, heard of the exploits of Sergeant Major Daly, General Smedley Butler (the 2 time recipient), General Lewis "Chesty" Puller, General Archibald Henderson and so many others at Parris Island. Seems like yesterday.
Marine corps history was my favorite part of boot camp, the rest was weapons and tactics training. Well and being dug constantly in between exercising non stop. Looking back it was good times. Semper Fi
The Starship Troopers book does directly quote that line an attributes it. I don't recall that it calls Dan Daly by name, but it does point out the real origin.
only watched 2 videos so far from you (both Fat Electrician videos, he is a great guy) my first thought was "Holy Shoes" lol but enjoyed your reaction. Now i see this one and see the Atlanta Braves hat on. That right there solidified my sub to you. My cousin played for the Braves in the 90's with 1 ring with them then another with the Marlins before he retired. Looking forward to seeing more of your other videos, really enjoying it.
if hollywood make movies about this people, the crazy military people . i think itll hit ... the craziness of the people during the greatest generation ..
That would probably be covered in an AP US History class, it was in mine. WW2 had some really crazy stories. My grandfather served in the navy on the Alabama.
They only touch on history in school. It's up to the students to go in depth. I love history and know most of these stories. The most important thing when reading history is which perspective the writer is coming from. For example George Washington was a commissioned officer in the British Army when he led the fight for Independence. If the rebels lost he would have been hung as a traitor but he won so he lives on as a freedom fighter and the father of our country
Bows and arrows. There are many types of arrowheads, and treatment was usually based on type. Medieval sheaf points where usually pulled after widening the wound and inserting the quills of goose feathers, as they would usually cause more damage going through. Bodken tips were usually pushed through. The type of tip was usually a calculative decision based on a number of factors such as armor, target, distance, funding, and rules of engagement. There are so many nuances when talking archery. This is just speaking VERY broadly.
Actually Dan Daly was recommended for 2 MOH at Bellow Wood. 1st was the saving of the ammo dump and the 2nd was for the machine gun and POW's + the charge as they where on the same day. Dan Daly was given 2 MOH and had 2 turned down!!!!! LOL
A little aside. The real reason for the devil dog nickname is because during a battle the marines had to crawl uphill, on all fours, through gas attacks and a lot of them were foaming at the mouth from the gas and the enemy forces said they looked like devil dogs.
im a navy veteren 97-05 i was whats called gator navy. we where amphibous assault ships carring marines and their gear. i was air wing working on helicopters adn we had the marine equivelant working with us. learned about Dan Daly from this seargent i worked with. guy was real knowledgeble about the marine corps history. was so cool to see this video picking up tracktion. dude was the "main character" during his lifetime. i remember i heard the stories of thsi guy im like some of this is bs right? but i never questioned but later learned no this dude is the real deal its in the books its documented. im was like wow. then i found out about Jake McNiece. Gotta check him hout dude had a movie series spawned because of him.
Anthony coming today!! As well as
I’m glad you guys started the Fat Electricians content. Love your content and his as well. Keep up the great work.
She would absolutely love Fat Electrician's "The Limping Lady - Deadliest Spy of WW2".
"The Most Gangster Politician of All Time - Cassius Marcellus Clay" is the best video he put out. IMO
Facts!! Everyone needs to watch that!
Tied with Samuel Whittemore for me. Both great.
Second this suggestion
Yes!!! Nick actually named his son after him too 🤙🏻
I third this motion
To this day, every Marine recruit is taught about Dan Daly in Basic Training.
When someone is awarded the Medal twice it is well deserved.
I hope they are also taught about Smedley Butler.

Love that you guys are doing the fat electrician I have watched the story about Dan Daly on like five different reactors plus his own so kudo!
Everytime i see new people watch a Fat Electrician video, i watch the video again.
Keep these coming! I love his sorry telling. “World War Tree” is a good one, also “Virginia Hall” one

He was referring to a bo staff, not a bow. Think Donatello's weapon on Ninja Turtles.
Donatello is the reason I know what a bo is lol.
Statistically one of them had a bow, Asian cultures typically highly prized archery skill.

More of the Fat Electrician please. The videos you guys have done are awesome
Everything this dude puts out is fantastic. Hope you guys watch more from him.

Dan Daly, Chesty Puller, and Smedly Butler are the holy trinity of USMC heroes. Oh, and cant forget Basilone.
Look any US Marine in the eye and mention "Dan Daly." Pay attention to what's going on in that head when the "On" button is lit.
Great posting. I really enjoyed it
Sweet, loving these!!
When I was in Marine boot camp in 96we all learned about him during our training. He definitely was a bad ass
The bow in martial arts is a six foot staf. Sometimes a four foot staf.
Representing Iowa well. He does amazing historic videos. 🔥👌🇺🇸🙏
There are more heroic stories that this guy tells than you can imagine. And he’s funny as hell to boot!!!
I agree with the below comment. Most Gangster politician. Cassius Clay. Very important in anti-slavery and the Civil War.
My man doesn't laugh, he GUFFAWS, I love it!
Love the military reactions!
One of the most Gangsta US Marines imo was Smedley D. Butler .. he stopped a coup in the USA.. called .. The Business Plot.
Love your content ran through what you have available it’s fire
ANY TFE is awesome entertainment AND KNOWLEDGE wrapped into one.
Do the Cassius Clay video from the Fat Electrician. You’ll kill it with that video.

Yoooooo keep these coming. His videos are awesome
thank you❤
as an atlanta fan, that Braves hat is freaking sharp dude.
6:39 They had bow staffs which are just really strong sticks they train with
The character in starship troopers that was the teacher/ then platoon leader was based on Dan Daily.
I have a friend that was in the Marine corp., his father was a marine and his two sisters joined the Marines.

subd. love watching people react to the fat electrician. keep going lots of good stuff.
I love the Braves baseball hat 🤌, even though I'm on West Coast 😁
Daly is a legend.
The Germans at Bellow Wood came to call the opponent they encountered Devil Dogs, a nickname Marines adapted with pride for decades.
Joe medicine crow, sergeant reckless & cassius clay are all amazingly informative and entertaining, to name a few more
7:08 500 years ago, specialized tools were used by surgeons to 'collapse' arrowheads, allowing for their removal, and the cleaning of the wound.
Also make sure you check out the very end of his videos he puts in little quips after credits
You guys need to watch The Real Life Rambo -- Roy Benavidez by the fat electrician
Marine corps history was my favorite part of boot camp, the rest was weapons and tactics training. Well and being dug constantly in between exercising non stop. Looking back it was good times.

that man was put on that wall because of his skills as a sharpshooter
He said bow staff, which is a long pole, aka Donatello's weapon in TMNT.
The Starship Troopers book does directly quote that line an attributes it. I don't recall that it calls Dan Daly by name, but it does point out the real origin.
Bruh confused Bow and Arrow with a Bo Staff.....😂
please do more of his videos

NEVER underestimate Marines! Dan Daily is our almost god
The Society of the Righteous and Harmonious Fist sounds like every villainous group in every martial arts movie.
Pls more Fat Electrician 🙏 Funny reaction as always
Bows and arrows are definitely an option but he meant Bo, it's like a quarterstaff or simply put, a big stick.
November 11th - Veterans day and Dan Daly's Birthday. November 10th - US Marine Corps birthday.
Love the fat electrician videos such a good story teller and has the little jokes too lots of good videos to choose from on his channel
She knows what to do with an arrow wound. If it's in, you break it and pull both directions.
This guy tells stories like no other , he makes history fun. Glad you you guys dig it...
Thanks!
A Bo (AKA Bo Staff) is a wooden stick normally made from a harden wood.
I’ll watch every one of these you do man. Good work
if hollywood make movies about this people, the crazy military people .

The movie "Fury" is based on the REAL "War Daddy", Lafayette G. Pool.
The Fat Electrician also has “The Last War Chief” which is great.

I think a Bo in this context is just a large wooden stick and not a bow and arrow
Just think if we would have had a high school history teacher like Nick.

Nope, the Marines say they’ll never lower their standards but they do ever since they started recruiting females into combat arms jobs.

You rarely die quickly from an arrow...
Honestly any video from TFE is amazing. His longer forms are my favorites but even the short tiktok videos are still hilarious.

The Bo is a staff, not a bow as you are thinking. Close quarters type of weapon.
Ima need to know where you found that Braves hat. I've got every style Braves hat you can think of but never seen that one.
Ike served in the Army at the same time as him in France. So there is no doubt he knew him or otherwise heard of him.
