I pray that someone finances a movie about the true stories of SOG while these warriors are still walking among us mortals.
Same here
Why make a movie? Their stories deserve a TV series in my opinion. Just too many hairy tales to compress into a 2-hour plus theatrical release.
@@Archblood came to say exactly this. Need a minimum, 10 season series, of all the different operations and viewpoints of the missions from all the different vantage points of every soldier and pilots involved!!! With the right producers, director, & actors, it could really be something special!!!
@@Archblood it would only work it that network didn't put the d!ck on it with excessive PC bullshit.
@@SGobuck I mean, on streaming not possible? Netflix? HBO? I remembered a time there was Tour of Duty in the 80s. Would love to see a Viet War series again.
This is going to be one of the most epic podcast series to date
Roger that!!
For sure.... for his NEXT act, i want a sit down with former Spetsnaz. Preferably one who spent some time in Afghanistan and/or Chechnya.
@@frankcastle1183 we gonna get some more of you?
@@ianmedford4855 Rhodesia!
@@Ted-Stryker oh man.... that didnt even cross my mind.
Fucking hell that would be fantastic. Never gonna happen though. If Jocko talks to one of those cats, he's the new Grand Wizard or High Dragon or whatever those retards call themselves. 2021 is gay.
As a kid in middle school, high school, I read books about MACV-SOG, the Green Berets, Delta, Navy Seals, etc. I did not go down that path, instead I joined the Air Force as a Loadmaster on C-17s. I flew all over the world, I loved it. When I got out I went into Law Enforcement with a desire to help people, make a difference in my small area of the world. I draw upon the lessons I’ve read about from these Titans and try to employ their lessons learned in my daily routine and duties. I’ve found it’s kept me alive, I’m able to teach younger, inexperienced LEOs how to conduct themselves. Thank you Brothers who served all those many years ago and shared your stories with us future generations. Your Sacrifices were not in vain. Keep telling your stories! We are listening and waiting for more hard won wisdom! Thank you!
This podcast series is something everyone should listen to. Amazingly brave men with missions to match.
No questioning the men of SOGs heroism. They did a fantastic job of upholding the honor of all those who came before them. Let us so live.
The only person that would get a scratch and get a purple heart was JOHN KERRY!
Semper fi sarge 🇺🇸👍
oh hey fancy seeing you here lol. Fantastic podcast. Really learned a lot from these guys.
I just got John's book "Across The Fence" in the mail today! Some of the stories about what he and his team got up to are just mind-blowing. Worth picking up if you're at all interested in war/history.
This will be an important piece of historical reference. Not enough is said about MACVSOG let alone Vietnam.
Im guessing that's because most of it has been classified until now.
One of my Special Forces medic classmates lost his life on a MACV-SOG mission in May-1969. RIP Howard "Howie" Hill.
R.I.P.🙏
I'd like to Thank him for his service
When ever I feel like my life is hard , I listen to SOG stories.
same brother. Really puts things in perspective. But also makes you want to do more.
Listening to these stories makes me realize I have never had a bad day.
“50 years later we’re allowed to talk about it” this alone is mind blowing
Could you imagine? I mean the guys in '72 couldn't even tell anyone until 1992.
Not really mind blowing, SOG was a classified unit and so was their operations. Till this day the US still don't recognize the Montagnard and Hmong as allies whom greatly contributed.
@@UnfiItered They don’t recognize them as allies because then they’d have to take responsibility for fucking them and leaving them to die.
This was a Certified "SOGCast" Classic
Homie do you just watch every single youtuber i do? I see you commenting on luke half of my favorite youtubers.
Hell yea
Cobra Tate & his aikido vortex.
I knew something like this would happen, John Stryker Meyer tilt is a god damn hero a damn national treasure . These pod casts needs to be in the library of Congress !
It should be law
I watched Jockos podcasts with “tilt” and all the “across the fence” guys multiple times. Fantastic and frightening. Thank you gentlemen for sharing your experiences.
I think this podcast With Jocko's help is Fan Fuckingtastic
Read Tilt's books ....they are fantastic
I'm in my 40s and I'm sitting here listing to this wide eyed like I'm listening to my Dad and Uncles talk about Vietnam! SO BAD ASS, THANKS GUYS!!!
Ppl probably walk by Mr. Sternberg every day thinking “what a nice little man”, never realizing what a BADASS he is. Real hero’s walk among us and we are oblivious.🤙
The mark of a great warrior.
Really glad to have these stories recorded before they are lost forever.
I will never truly understand what these SOG savages went through. Incredible men.
There's more of these available. Tilt is a goddamn legend and gentleman. The preservation of these stories cannot be overvalued. Thank you so much for your days as a warrior and your continued work in passing on the history that we would otherwise lose entirely.
He’s appeared on Tactical Rifleman,Team House, Jocko, many others. Once with Black Rifle Coffee scumbag Evan. Not Tilt’s fault he turned out to be a woke sellout.
5 foot 4 and 112 pounds ? From where I'm sitting he seems 10 feet tall and bullet proof 😲 i look forward to hearing more about these superhuman superhero SOG Casts 👍🙏♥️ bless you fine gentleman
If he was any taller or bigger surely he would caught a bullet while serving lol
The man’s kit was probably 75% of his body weight! Amazing
It’s not the size of the dog in the fight…
Knowing the odds of meeting the NVA and knowing how out numbered you would be, it’s hard to imagine you would volunteer for such missions. You must have had balls of steel or a disregard for your own life, unbelievable.
Can’t wait to hear more accounts of SOG!
This is going to be a great series, the actions of SOG from the men who lived It. ust doesn’t get any better.
I Sgt. Johnny R. Huff Sr. 1968 was in Cambodia I was in on several operations ,it was amazing to see this pod cast when I volunteered I had sign a paper to never reveal these things it was top secret, I was only 17 yrs old ,I joined Army at 16 yrs old ,I trained at ft Benning Ga. ,I'm just now writing my own story .and much has been not told of the truth of our battles. God bless these men. SOG was made up of many volunteers Green beets And Regular Army all Volunteers, there were even some Marines ,much has never been told.
A good friend of mine who was in the Electric Strawberry in Nam just passed away several months back.
For what it's worth, welcome home John.
Thank you for your service.
It my be late but, Welcome home Sgt thank you for your service
Can't wait for this series Brothers.
PLEASE DISCUSS THE MONTAGNARDS.
These stories are incredible to hear, thank you guys so much for sharing them with the new generations.
More episodes are already available on Spotify.
I could watch a million SOGCasts. These videos will live on forever, thank you.
This shit is solid gold. Thank you for serving and giving us a view of what it was like at the time
So glad that you are doing this SOGCAST Tilt, it’s way past time that the exploits of SOG were made public. Y’all laid THE groundwork for future generations and left a Footprint that can never be filled. Drive On!
Tilt is the perfect host for this series of podcasts. Every guest he has is going to be someone he totally understands. The heroism of these men is off the chain.
Tilt, proud to say, while in Iraq, I was on a mission that was the modern day 2006 equivalent of ELDEST SON. I being well versed on much of what had been written about SOG was the only one that was aware of the historical significance of what we were doing. Was very exciting.. However, the difference was we only inserted 1 ODA verified. The other was either ODA in disguise( I think he was an iraqi) only 2 were inserted and only one was armed.. We sold SA missiles back to the bad guys, tracked movement and they would detonate when fired.. Lol.. Thanks for paving the way for snake eaters to continue the legacy.
Haha sold the enemy sabotaged ammo. Eldest son mission’s are some of my favorite war stories to hear.
Good for you guys, screw those assholes and there” religious” agenda.
I’m happy to hear the US military still has a few balls left, to do what’s ness. to defeat and eradicate the enemy.
@@5-8bobtherapper55 I wish you could of been there. The overwhelming humor, joy and indescribable excitement in knowing this historical nod to eldest son missions are a fulfilling moment in my Army career... I'll never forget the ODA with his big red beard telling us over I.C.S. what we were doing. It
was a thankful change of pace, as being almost done with a two week rotation of battle field circulation mission(I needed a change) The jaburi tribe was a bunch of smugglers in the north that would literally smuggle anything from cigarettes to SA-16 shoulder fired missiles. Although it was an uneventful mission as far as no contact. It was a successful mission in that we were able to insert 2 operators undetected, they succeeded in their tasking and a.successful exfil followed by Intel as far as tracking to warehouse facilities and bad guy where about.. Lol.. honestly speaking, missions with ODA and Rangers were some of the most fun, dangerous, prideful, memorable moments aside from birth of children I have ever had.
Gray hair and all, Tilt is a bad dude still in 2021! Tremendous respect for this channel/podcast/guests.
Thanks for sponsoring the "sogcast" Jocko! Hearing these Vietnam vets on Jockos podcast has been my favorite(along with the book reviews). These stories need to be heard. The SOG guys were quite possibly the most hardcore cats out there. Gonna love this channel!
To me, having grown up during the Vietnam era and watching it as it happened on the news, these stories fill out a place in history that fascinates me. Can't really think of any other situation that spawned these kinds of missions, these guys define the word warrior. I'm just glad I got the chance to hear them.
Fuck yeah, nice one guys, I've watched all of the podcasts featuring John, what a great and genuine man, thank you for your service all the way from Scotland, this series should be excellent, I've always been interested in vietnam and combat in such a place. I hope everyone's well, do take care 🙂
I always wanted more SOG stories specifically my man Tilt, the fact it’s a new series is fuc#!ng awesome. Keep em coming sirs
I just read Tilt’s chapter entitled “Custer’s Last Stand” from his book “On the Ground.” I almost pissed myself laughing. In the midst of their daily terrifying missions, these incredible solders remain human beings back at base - with hysterical results. A truly great tale, Sir!🤣🤣🤣
Doubled his weight at 115lb with explosives, ammo, weapons, and comm. Equip. Still slaying NVA & carrying a mate onto a Helo....is he human?
This old bastard, and I say that with the highest level of respect, is as tough as friggin nails! That war was friggin insane! Thank you for this interview. I look forward to more!!
Awesome heard all of these on audio ... But cannot get enough of them!!! Thanks J. S. M. Thanks Jocko. Thanks to all those who served and paid the ultimate price
Hope John gets his story he talks about in 3rd group that he can't talk about, so it doesn't get lost or forever lost!!! Truly awesome podcast!!!!
Hell yeah. Appreciate all you SOG guys. All time legends!
Thank u Jocko... Awesome job Tilt!
Someone needs to make their stories into a TV series... and not let Hollywood fuck it up... just tell the stories as they really happened...
Hollywood would change it into all women and at the beginning put "Based on a true story".
I'm watch every single one of these at least three times!! Thank you for telling these men's stories. God bless America 🇺🇸
I read John Plaster book on SOG several years ago and loved it. Would like to read more of the same type books. Also had the fortunate pleasure of knowing a former Green Beret who was not a SOG member but did work with and train the “Yards”South Vietnamese and listened intently on the life he had during that experience. Unfortunately he is no longer with us.
And to think that these guys returned home to be looked down at... Shamed and not welcomed home after all they went through. Seems crazy to know that they were truly heroes.
This makes me happy, your stories, and fellow veterans stories are inspiring and at times overwhelming, you sir are the definition of a badass
I don’t think I’ve ever been more proud to be a god damn red blooded American. These gentleman deserve more than we could ever repay them with, and they are so god damn tough they’d do it all over again if they could. I wish there was more we do for you gentleman, cheers and best wishes to you heroes, I’ll listen to every podcast you ever produce.
The real tough guys were the bafe footedill equipped Viet Cong soldiers. Who lived in tunnels of dirt
My hat is off to Jocko for giving these American HEROES the opportunity to recount their missions and sacrifices. There are so many of us American patriots who idolize warriors like these men and it is so awesome to hear their stories. Big thanks to ALL who served, from myself and my family. God bless America and God Bless MACV-SOG!
Thanks for making this series, just can't get enough of this stuff. Hope for another series including Lynne Black if possible.
"You and Mike went over together?" "Yeah" "And Vietnam survived that?" hahahah my favorite little quip of the episode.
So glad I discovered these men of SOG. American Exceptionalism personified. Thank you "Tilt", Jocko Willink, and all the men of SOG. Your stories and spirit will live forever.
this was a great podcast!! YOU GUYS ARE AMERICAN LEGENDS !!!!
Holy. Fucking. Shit.
I was already having a really good day too. The Lord smiles upon us.
Yes he does.
It’s great that this is all being recorded for history. Greetings from across the pond in England 🇬🇧👍🇺🇸
I think what helps make these stories more "real" than the ww2 stories you hear about is that its basically the birth of all the Special Ops groups and teams people love to learn about now
Incredible! Awesome stuff! RIP to ST Idaho members, now they will never be forgotten!
We need more SOGCAST these stories need to be heard, and these solders need to thanked and remembered.
First time I ever saw John look nervous was the beginning of this podcast lol. I loved everything about this and thank God for men like them. You're the very best. You all (and US) remain in my prayers.
I'd like to recommend adding all the previous SOG episodes to the SOGCast playlist so there's a convenient resource to find all these amazing discussions. Thanks for preserving these astonishing stories for generations to come!
I am in! Every cast. I’ll be there listening.
I can’t wait for further podcast, I love history
As the gold star son of a Vietnam War Marine; I have a great affinity for veterans like Tilt Meyer... THANK YOU JOCKO for supporting this endeavor! (Semper Fi)
Thank you for your dad’s service!
You gentlemen are true heroes and thank you for letting me stand on your shoulders during my time serving.
Indeed, I was a kid when these guys came home from that nightmare and I saw how they got treated when they got back and throughout the 70's, even though I was only a kid I still felt like I should do my part to make up for how they were treated, and the only thing that I was capable of doing was to enlist in the military as a way to show them that some of us still believed in our country and that what they'd gone through wasn't in vain, it'll never cease to amaze me that a little kid could see that how they were treated was wrong but somehow that point slipped past the grown-up's of the time.
They were the men who inspired me to enlist and then they were the men who trained me after I did, as with most of the troops I was in with the Vietnam vets were 100% rock star to us, and it's like I've told several of them, "You wouldn't have had to worry about any of us turning tail and running when a fight broke out, because the thought of letting you guy's down was far more horrifying than the thought of getting killed".
Tilt, you’re doing a great job hosting this! We all appreciate your time rounding up the men and telling us your stories
“Emptied the magazine from my car-15 and flipped him off” extreme badassery and courage under fire right there.
Big thank you sir. Also thanks to Jocko who introduced us to you and your fantastic books. I've read a few and enjoyed your interviews with Jocko.
Thank you for your service then and today. Carry On!!!
Absolutely amazing! Tilt is a legend and so are his stories
Can't wait to hear more of these stories. Thank you for your service!
I’m glad we are able to record videos for the future generations! Think about all the amazing stories lost to time!
Just wanted to say thank you to both of you, ya'll have been an inspiration to all of us that have came after you.
Thank you both from the bottom of my heart for for your service and dedication to this great nation…absolutely amazing job!!! Cant wait for the next!
Ive been listening to Jocko since day 1 and this is truly glorious to see! He even reads with a good deliberate pace, Jocko you did well teachin him your ways.
I've always admired MAC V SOG since I was a kid, I had family who served in Nam, I'm damn proud to call these men and everyone else who served past, present, and further military personnel my Brothers and Sisters in Arms 4 Life.
I clicked on this so fast. Funny I was just listening to another episode with Tilt and Jocko said "we gotta get the SOGcast going.." ... Tilt said "We will do it" and here we are. Thank you Jocko, Tilt, Echo, and all the legendary Vietnam vets!! Absolute units
This is so good. Appreciate how these guys are willing to share their experiences after all these years. Keep it coming, We’re all like kids sitting around listening to grandpa
I'm extremely excited to hear these amazing stories of bravery and sacrifice. Thank you for your service!
Thank you Jocko, it's always great day to hear Tilt.
My Dad and I love these seastories you tell; thank you for these the episodes you've done and will do.
I'm so happy this showed up on my recommended video's. I listened to all the Jocko podcasts and audiobooks about SOG and am blown away by the courage and sacrifice of unit. Thank you for continuing to share these stories. It's a true inspiration to know the unbelievable odds these teams were against and an important history to preserve. Thankyou Sir.
Much gratitude for your service to our country. I appreciate y’all sharing your valuable experiences and stories.
Thank you jocko for giving these guys a platform and especially thank you Tilt for recording the history of these incredible men including yourself. True American heros.
Its always interesting to hear you and your fellow teams stories sir! Thank you for everything you've done.
Thank god they finally added a video version of this. I've been waiting for this
HELL YEAH!! This is exactly what we needed! Thank you Jocko, Thank you Tilt!
Hats off to all of these men. Thank you all for your service.
So stoked you guys are giving The SOG operations their due attention. I try to read as much as I can on the Vietnam War and nothing challenged everything I imagined or thought I understood about the courage and ferocity of the troops who fought there than what you guys did. Thank you × infinity.
LETS GO! I'm excited about this series. Loving it so far!
Hell ya, great podcast couldn't be more thrilled and awestruck to listen to these warriors stories. Have a blessed day.
Ive listened to all of these that have been released thus far. But is so awesome to put a face to the voices. Thanks Tilt.
The descriptions these soldiers give paint the picture and this is so historical .thank you gentlemen.
I’ve been waiting all my life for this Podcast! Let’s get these stories out before they are lost forever.
I have so much love for you all. Thank you so much for the podcast.
Awesome interview, the fact that you guys are still here I would call divine intervention. Kudos to both of you and Joko for making this podcast possible.
I'm so happy these HEROS are doing a podcast !!!! Thank you for telling us your stories .
This is friggin EPIC. This is why I have always supported Jocko and all his endeavours: The man is humble enough to step out of the way for this amazing generation of warriors and let them tell THEIR OWN stories! Very Excited! Let's get it poppin! 👍
Damn this is gonna be good the stories you guys have are some of the wildest I’ve ever had the honor to listen too
You brothers are my Heros Love you and Thank you from the bottom of my Heart for your sacrifices you made for all of us and your Country .Thank you brother Jocko for ur channel and bring thier story to the fore front for your sacrifices and service as well this Country! owes you guys the highest honor and Gratitde Salute #GodzWarriorz🛡️⚔️🇺🇲🦅
Amazing. I am just glad these men are still alive, and well, and getting to share their stories, insane stories that would never have been known otherwise , God definetely was watching over them , God bless these men who sacrificed so much for US and our nation.
Hell yea! I'm ready for 1000 episodes!
This is brilliant team, we need to hear more from our veterans, well done to all, I can't wait to hear about our history.
I love hearing about these older stories!!
YES!! Finally SOGCast is here in video. I've listened to all the episodes on Spotify as soon as they hit and couldn't wait for the video-uploads
*“Everything that happens is either endurable or not. If it’s endurable, then endure it. Stop complaining." - Marcus Aurelius*
Great to see this pop up, will be good to listen to on my walk.
If I may, I suspect one of your microphones might be backwards. There's a little bit of a phasey "drain pipe" effect on Tilt's voice, which you get if you have two copies of the same audio with a short time delay, such as two mics at different distances hearing the same thing. George's mic also sounds duller, which happens when you speak into the wrong side. What I think is happening is that both mics are pointed at Tilt. It's totally listenable as is, just trying to help.
The SOG stories are the most amazing I have ever heard. Thank you for your service.
This is awesome! Greatly appreciate the opportunity to hear about these missions from those who were there!
Oh hell ya
