At a range once. Shooting competition. Maybe 50 guys shooting at once. A massive elk walks out of the woods off to the side of the targets and just chills out. I couldn’t believe it with all the shooting that was going on.
The ODA ( Operational Detachment - Alpha) versus the Antelope Episode was hilarious 😆, however, if You ever get the chance, I Myself wish to see a future - either Short - Range Immediate or Long - Range Distant ---- episode where You discuss Your Operations with either the Conventional Fleet Marine Force( FMF) , Force Reconnaissance Company in the Reconnaissance Battalion ,or , Marine Raiders of MARSOC. The Raison d'Etre for the request, is that, My Brother was an 0311/ 0321( Infantry Rifleman and Reconnaissance Marine) on Ona Point, Camp Schwab, 3d Reconnaissance Battalion, 3d Marine Division, Okinawa, Japan. He and His Unit often trained with 1st SFGA on Torii Station, where Celers, Silens et Mortalis meets De Oppresso Liber.
My first gunnery while in 2CR I accidentally smoked 3 deer at night qual with the 30mil Stryker, they werent moving and if you know what a vehicle target under thermals looks like it was identical. Even the tower thought it was a target so nothing happened to me
LOL... I enjoyed your story. Glad you got through it. Thanks for serving.
So ridiculous the amount of bureaucracy, time and money spent to get your ODA in trouble.

Sounds like some officers didn't have anything better to do. I've got a story I bet you'd appreciate that I'll share privately someday.
This story both sound like a really bad fever dream and an episode of Tropic Thunder 🤣

Can you do a video about your favorite US SOF you liked and did not like working with
Reminds me of A-team when BA Barracuss and others got arraigned in front of a court.
Can you do video about the Mountaineer Team ? ? ?
Sounds like something Beapuere would do…
Maybe revamp the psyceval process for military service?
Can you do a video about PT test and training AFTER you became a GB ? ?
