Anyone else noticed every response he has to an accusation is some crazy story, never just a simple "You're wrong here's why answer it's some crazy thing that's only happened to him very strange 🤔
As you should. That's a moment I'm sure you will never ever forget. For tim to claim he doesn't remember the teammates and friends who died, its just bullshit
I remember their faces, their names, their gait (how they walk), what units they came from for the more experienced guys, our conversations, intimate things shared about family, personal life, marriages, all the things dudes talk about when living together 24/7, month-after-month. No way could I forget their names.
I don't get why he didn't just come out and say he embellished because it's a book and meant to be entertainment. Nobody would care. Doubling down on silly lies is just dumb
@@bboness713 Why wouldn’t people care? Watch the other episodes about him, Antihero and Valhalla. Clearly, people who value integrity would care. He lied, even using his KIA teammate as a "witness" for much of his exaggerated Jason Bourne-style claims. And why? Because his buddy isn’t here to refute him. This goes far beyond simple embellishment-it’s a betrayal of trust and respect.
How could he just “forget” his brothers that died? I was an army medic… it’s been 13 years and I still remember their names, their faces, the last time I saw them alive… saying he forgot them is so cruel.
Exactly. Lost dad 5 years ago, but he could tell you names and details of everyone he knew that was lost in 4 tours of Vietnam. Enough so that I remember most of them myself.
Same. Medic. Lost five good friends. I've lost more since, between car wrecks, addiction, and suicide. I remember every name, every face. Dude is such a fucking liar.
I believe it's possible that he's trying to say the truth and he has CTE, but then there is the gigantic incongruence of him writing full of stories and tiny details that he perfectly remembers
Exactly, the whole SF, teams bros glorifying war is gross. People come back fucked yo and many don’t come back from it. I met a Marine gulf war 1 vet in Joshua Tree Ca, we were drinking shooting the breeze sharing deployment stories from my time in 2003. He stared straight into the fire pit that night and said “I just never came back”. That shit hit me hard as a fellow Marine Vet. Because I could relate to his experience.
Bingo, Tim's words show that has EXTREMELY low emotional intelligence, and potentially a high level of narcissism. Which is weird, because I though the Q Course filtered out candidates with these character traits.
It's absolutely hilarious to see people defending Tim in the comment section. You people are sheep who will believe absolutely anything. This is a guy who flew halfway across the world to the Ukraine to get in a ditch and throw dirt on himself to pretend like he was on the front lines. Ukrainians were laughing at him and asked him what he was doing there, while he was sitting here taking a selfie for Instagram acting like he was in the trenches. The guy is an absolute clown If you defend him you are a sheep and a clown just like him.
At any given time, most people on earth are complete lazy fools and will believe whatever they are told. Narcists sociopaths like Tim will take advantage of this and get rewarded for lying even though he has been caught lying.
U notice he called 2 tours trips? And talking about graduating that course twice. He said he considered that a great thing. Not honor. He knows he is full of shit
Dude I’m literally a 173rd infantry airborne veteran. Never saw combat never done anything crazy. I’m still proud of my service. Just be proud of your accomplishments and achievements. No reason to embellish shit and play victim to straight lies. Honestly lost respect for Tim after all this shit. Own up to your god damn mistakes and move on dude.
My words to tim Listen, Tim, you messed up-plain and simple. No excuses, no dodging. Own it like a man. Stand up, admit where you fell short, and move forward with purpose. It’s not about getting caught; it’s about how you face it and fix it. Integrity isn’t optional-it’s the foundation of who you are. Handle it with strength and decisiveness, or the situation will handle you. The choice is yours.

TK is 1 of those rare "veterans" with the "people" skills or behavior points. Intel agencies, SOF units seek out people like him because they can be used to gather data, persuade others, be effective. Sales and showmanship.
Without minimizing their service - I’ve never entirely bought into the veracity of the Jocko W, Marcus C or Chris K……….it’s sad, because their actual service was more than enough without embellishments or in some instances outright lies……
Many of us knew out of the gate something stank with The Lone Survivor story, then got immediate word that it was BS from within the SOF & Recon community. I knew it was BS before I listened to Luttrell for 2hrs talk about it at a speaking event. Now Luttrell finally admits the Navy propped him up as a recruiting effort to promote a ghost-written book by a British military fiction writer named Patrick Robinson.
What did Jocko lie about? I listened to quite a few of his podcasts and read his books. I never had the impression that he pumped himself up with over the top war stories. Chris K and Tim Kennedy have both said a lot of over the top, Hollywood movie type stories. On the other hand, I think of all of the stories I've heard about from WWII that were done by guys who went through basic training and then went to war.
@@keats182not so much what he lied about iirc, it's more so about his awful record as a Seal commander, putting his men in unnecessary danger, alleged war crimes. As for Capone, I'm not super familiar with him, but DJ Shipley and some other guys speak about him like a demigod
The fact he thinks he had to make this shity plea for truth says more than most will realize.. dudes been seriously called out for pumping his narcissistic ego and been caught with his hand in the ego cooky jar😂😂😂
The whole “that is what I remember” line gave me such strong second hand embarrassment I wanted to crawl into a hole. God damn that was REALLY fuckin bad Tim
@@DanDan-cl7emhe’s joking. A few episodes ago, the crew at unsubscribe had a viewer that gave Brandon his Purple Heart to make him uncomfortable because he never served and all his friends are veterans😂
See, See my pic of my award!!! Believe me…Believe me. When Its just sad and pathetic is the only words that come to mind. Such a small little man. Great job to you Jay and all the other SF professionals for bringing this absolute Fraud into the light and for mentoring the next generation of warfighters. MTTGA- Make the Truth Great Again
I'm so glad soo many of us are calling it out. Lost alm9st 30 claa mates and friend's in gwot also ln last 5 years. 105 ppl who made my life easy are gone. My w8fe and kids are the only reason I even want to be here.
This hurts as a civilian because I’ve watched Tim for like 20 years now through the ufc and always had the highest respect for him being a SF guy on top of that. I’ll never understand why he’s doing this.
Because if he does guys like you will "watch him for like 20 years", buy his stuff, up his view counts and get him sponsor deals. LoL the why is LITERALLY you my guy.
Jay's resume is more impressive to me. Brent's resume is more impressive to me. And never once have any alarm bells gone off when listening to either talk. TK however, almost everything he says sets off alarms to me.
I am disappointed. When people thank someone I know for their service, he answers, “I haven’t done anything”, even though jumping out of planes is dangerous. The person I am talking about is an Eagle Scout, so being honest means something special.
I was a Navy Corpsman from 1990-1999. I never saw combat nor was I in Special Forces. I never lost anyone I knew personally but lost a few to accidents and I remember their names. I got to go to a lot of different countries and see and do a lot of cool things. I’m still friends with a bunch of my shipmates and Marines. One thing that puts me off about him is his stance on 2A and civilians. I give him credit for going through Ranger and Special Forces but why do you have to embellish things?
I served in the 37th infantry division of the Ohio National Guard from 2001-2013 . We got deployed in 2011 to assist the army in Afghanistan. I didn’t lose anyone from my unit but lost guys that we were assisting I remember every name. Totally agree that’s not something a soldier forgets. Thank you for your service
After watching the Anti Hero podcast it is pretty clear Tim Kennedy is in the wrong. Deny, Deny, Deny, make counter accusations and admit to nothing. Tim Kennedy should come clean and apologize and move on. Watch the complete Anti Hero, THE Valhalla podcast and it is impossible not to come away thinking Tim Kennedy is in the wrong.
since 2018 ive worked with some of the largest social media creators as a video editor, content strategist, and channel manager. Tims response is PR 101, A) Discredit the accusers B) Play victim C) Spend the most time speaking on the least important topics (IE: Failing sniper school on purpose vs stolen valor), this is important because he’s hoping his fans don’t watch the whole AH podcast ep D) Mention your not going to speak about this again… also notice how in a 12 minute video he didn’t really disprove anything AH Pod spoke on?!… dudes guilty
there’s a lot more to the PR angle i could break down in depth, but this a yt comment section lol… just watch the video and try to notice how PR driven this is, and you’ll see it … but this why I always say, PR damage control is the worst damage control, if you fk up and admit to it, people RESPECT that, but lying, no.
I have told people there are 2 types. The quiet professionals and the pre Madonnas. One you may not even know they served, the other will sell himself like a used car salesman. From the USCCA commercials to his stuff, everything is about what he’s done and his accomplishments while in.
Combat Tim just lied on this one. He said he got honor graduate but he got the “combat tomahawk” award. Which is kindof like a participation trophy. Honor grad means you were in the top 1% of the class. More than one person can get it. But it’s based on performance, test score etc.
@@wango556Every military school I attended issued a certificate signed by the Commandant for Honor Grads. They made a big deal about it, and often gave out physical awards as well with some type of token or plaque. This was done in the presence of the entire class and Cadre, at the end of the graduation ceremony.
I didn’t serve. Lots of family that did, but I never pulled the trigger. That said, I like Tim and dislike Tim at the same time. He’s objectively very inspiring in many ways.. but in many other ways, he’s utterly terrible. He comes across as a hardcore grifter, and the saddest part is that he doesn’t need to be one, because the honest version of his story is interesting enough on its own.
Funny he doesn't remember mates that died yet he sure remembers the names of the teammates he beat up in the order that he beat them up when the team had to straighten him out.
Agreed - it’s all pretty pathetic, and not just Tim… all this cat and mouse bullshit over video and keyboard… at the end of the day, all these dudes are on TH-cam hoping people will follow them so they can make money, and I’m not knocking that, but making videos shitting on other people under the guise of “it’s the right thing to do…”, I don’t know, it comes off as super lame to me.
If I can remember every single 3rd-2nd and 1st place pee wee soccer plastic award I have got, you can remember if you were an honor grad in Ranger School, Tim.
My Grandfather was a WW2 vet. He recalled names of fallen comrades from 70-80 years ago!!! My father is a Vietnam vet he recalls fallen comrades from 50 years ago!
He's a very likeable person, but I know a con man who was extremely likeable and loved who stole a lot from people and including from me. I'm not saying Tim is doing the same thing, or he is a thief. However, he is showing signs of anti social personality. He's in control and he is trying to cover it up. Liars dig their own fate.
Likeable? I understand this is subjective, and there are a lot of people, including myself, who never perceived him as likable. I cant like narcissistic, immature egomaniacs.
" Guys, i screwed up. I co-signed a book that i knew had lies in it, and I shouldn't have .

" That would be the best and only way to get out of this with some honor . He just kicked the hornets nest trying to defend this.
Really appreciate all the work you specifically have done bringing things like this to light (just found your podcast this year). I know it's not your main mission with the channel, but thanks. I used to follow Tim a lot, got him to autograph the book presale, then one day his daily posts just seemed annoying so I unfollowed up before I even got to read the book. Like yall have said, what he's accomplished in life alone is amazing, but the need to go over the top has ruined it all. Thanks again!

The DD214 you get upon EAS is only as good as your S1 shop clerks. Mine's missing many awards and Ops. I had to make contact with the Board of Naval Corrections to get my EAS date corrected. That was worse than having a triple root canal. The awards I'm missing isn't a huge deal. It's history. It was the greatest honor and privilege of my life to serve as a Marine grunt for 16+ years.
NO ONE would forget to hit up the S1 to make sure they got a purple heart or valor award added to the ERB. Purple hearts were hard to come by at that point.
@@8551-w5v and some people don't pay attention to the DD214 - and then, like you said, it's a hassle that is questionable to deal with. The most important part is the "honorable service discharge."
You can’t get those awards on your dd214 unless you have the signed orders that come with it if you lose those they can’t put them on your erb or dd214 I learned the hard way
Tim, when are you going to tell us about that time in Argentina when you were surrounded by 100 Nazis and you vanquished them one by one with your Samurai sword?
Thanks so much Jay for laying it out plain and simple. I had no clue about the Antihero podcast until I watched you Nate, Jake, and don't hate me but sorry I haven't committed the other names to memory. I watched Antihero, then TK responded and his is obviously in explain and defend mode. Rock on Sir, thanks for keeping it real!
Thanks for saying all of this. I thought the whole time between his body language, articulation and tone, eye contact, and the setting, it was full of deception.

@Beetlejuice67668 how do we even know that's true? On the Valhalla podcast they were saying they had guys that were in the book and served with kennedy that are willing to come on the record about him lying.
@@eriklambert3809 but if it's many vs one, there's good chance it's the one that's lying. If tim can get a group from the 200 strong vehicle convoy he said got attacked to verify his story then he can have a case. If a group from the convoy all say he's lying then he's probably lying. Him saying his FOB was overrun by Iranians of all things. Well, that would just be in the news. Iran trying to over run a US base is unheard of. There should also be people from that FOB that was attacked that would be able to corroborate this story which somehow missed media attention as well.
Being a distinguished grad in any military school is something you hang your hat on, talk shit and boast about your entire career. You would know and remember if that was the case. Definitely not a book writing oversight.

I did not get a detailed DD214 when I got out of the Army Reserve and National Guard. All I got were memos saying Honorable Discharge....just saying...
Along with over 40yrs of law enforcement, medic, and contractor in several countries I spent nearly 10 years as full time Advanced EMT with a 911 ambulance service. I could take off as much as I needed for goin out of the country and while i can't remember everyone we saved I can remember everyone we couldn't. If not names, may have never known the names, but the faces and circumstances. I remember every law enforcement officer we lost locally we lost. Most of those in 3 states. No one in the area where we lives knows what I do or what I have done over the years or where I've been. I have never tried to promote what I have done and never will. In fact I will die as anonymously as I have lived. I've actually been seen by thousands, possibly millions, of folks who never knew who I was. Wasn't out there to be a "star". Kennedy is the most self promoting soldier or other public servant I have ever seen and while nothing actually wrong with that why the embellishments or outright lies? His record should have stood for itself. Ultimately I will never visit ANY site or channel involving his name. Phukim.
Can’t get over the book detailing battlefield injuries yet DD214 details no Purple Hearts yet nine awarded. While I’m no veteran my dad has Purple Hearts and a silver star from Vietnam and a 30 year army career ending in 1995.
RAMBO , John Timmy Rambo i think it was 100 grenades and one RPG. Thank GOD for Green Beret Chronicles always keeping shit real BRAVO ZULU Jay keep up your good work.
I have a school, MCIWS (Marine Corps Instructor of Water Survival) that was not on my DD214 when I got out. Waaaaaay different than a Purple Heart. I’m saying, it could have happened to Tim but like you said, a Purple Heart is huge and if I was Tim, I’d be asking why my Purple Heart wasn’t on my DD214.

Now Luttrell finally admits the Navy propped him up as a recruiting effort to promote a ghost-written book by a British military fiction writer named Patrick Robinson.
What did Jocko lie about? I listened to quite a few of his podcasts and read his books. I never had the impression that he pumped himself up with over the top war stories. Chris K and Tim Kennedy have both said a lot of over the top, Hollywood movie type stories.
On the other hand, I think of all of the stories I've heard about from WWII that were done by guys who went through basic training and then went to war.
@@keats182not so much what he lied about iirc, it's more so about his awful record as a Seal commander, putting his men in unnecessary danger, alleged war crimes.
As for Capone, I'm not super familiar with him, but DJ Shipley and some other guys speak about him like a demigod
Was caught lying time to double down. This is like sociopathic.
The fact he thinks he had to make this shity plea for truth says more than most will realize.. dudes been seriously called out for pumping his narcissistic ego and been caught with his hand in the ego cooky jar😂😂😂
The whole “that is what I remember” line gave me such strong second hand embarrassment I wanted to crawl into a hole. God damn that was REALLY fuckin bad Tim
Yep, he’s done. This whole thing just discredits TK.
Yep
I was all up in his comments telling him it would NOT be long before he got replied to by all yall. You did not disappoint
Brandon Herrera is more decorated than Tim Kennedy 😂
Wuts Herreras service record?
He lived in Fayetteville NC for a good portion of his life 😅....that counts
@@DanDan-cl7emhe’s joking. A few episodes ago, the crew at unsubscribe had a viewer that gave Brandon his Purple Heart to make him uncomfortable because he never served and all his friends are veterans😂
FPS russia has more real accolades than TK.
See, See my pic of my award!!! Believe me…Believe me. When Its just sad and pathetic is the only words that come to mind. Such a small little man. Great job to you Jay and all the other SF professionals for bringing this absolute Fraud into the light and for mentoring the next generation of warfighters. MTTGA- Make the Truth Great Again
Man.... watching him was some serious second hand embarrassment
I'm so glad soo many of us are calling it out. Lost alm9st 30 claa mates and friend's in gwot also ln last 5 years. 105 ppl who made my life easy are gone. My w8fe and kids are the only reason I even want to be here.
I don't know you and I've never met you that I know of I want you to be here and still work for you to do.
I’m glad you’re here. A lot of us are.
One foot in front of the other man.
🤙🏼
This hurts as a civilian because I’ve watched Tim for like 20 years now through the ufc and always had the highest respect for him being a SF guy on top of that. I’ll never understand why he’s doing this.
Because if he does guys like you will "watch him for like 20 years", buy his stuff, up his view counts and get him sponsor deals.
LoL the why is LITERALLY you my guy.
@@benjaminlanzotti1374😂😂😂 right
Some of his “rebuttals “ if you wanna call them that literally proved your point to his manipulation and dishonesty
Remember regardless if TK is lying or not he is against civilians having 2A rights!
Maybe true, but civilians having 2A rights is not up to him it is a right given by God, not government
@@2AallDay-11100% agree!
He’s been lubed up by the real powers that be……industry plant
Jay's resume is more impressive to me. Brent's resume is more impressive to me. And never once have any alarm bells gone off when listening to either talk. TK however, almost everything he says sets off alarms to me.
I am disappointed. When people thank someone I know for their service, he answers, “I haven’t done anything”, even though jumping out of planes is dangerous. The person I am talking about is an Eagle Scout, so being honest means something special.
I was a Navy Corpsman from 1990-1999. I never saw combat nor was I in Special Forces. I never lost anyone I knew personally but lost a few to accidents and I remember their names. I got to go to a lot of different countries and see and do a lot of cool things. I’m still friends with a bunch of my shipmates and Marines. One thing that puts me off about him is his stance on 2A and civilians. I give him credit for going through Ranger and Special Forces but why do you have to embellish things?
I served in the 37th infantry division of the Ohio National Guard from 2001-2013 . We got deployed in 2011 to assist the army in Afghanistan. I didn’t lose anyone from my unit but lost guys that we were assisting I remember every name. Totally agree that’s not something a soldier forgets. Thank you for your service
Not surprising that the Generals wanted to be a part of his photo-op re-enlistment ceremony over in Normandy. Birds of a feather…..
After watching the Anti Hero podcast it is pretty clear Tim Kennedy is in the wrong. Deny, Deny, Deny, make counter accusations and admit to nothing. Tim Kennedy should come clean and apologize and move on. Watch the complete Anti Hero, THE Valhalla podcast and it is impossible not to come away thinking Tim Kennedy is in the wrong.
Tim's version of what happened is different than what truly happened because he's gaslighting.
Thank you. You guys are doing Gods work. All lies will be exposed.
I think he’s saying he got injured but just didn’t tell anyone cuz he was so tough
since 2018 ive worked with some of the largest social media creators as a video editor, content strategist, and channel manager. Tims response is PR 101, A) Discredit the accusers B) Play victim C) Spend the most time speaking on the least important topics (IE: Failing sniper school on purpose vs stolen valor), this is important because he’s hoping his fans don’t watch the whole AH podcast ep D) Mention your not going to speak about this again… also notice how in a 12 minute video he didn’t really disprove anything AH Pod spoke on?!… dudes guilty
there’s a lot more to the PR angle i could break down in depth, but this a yt comment section lol… just watch the video and try to notice how PR driven this is, and you’ll see it … but this why I always say, PR damage control is the worst damage control, if you fk up and admit to it, people RESPECT that, but lying, no.
You forgot to add in the last part to cuss violently and intimidate
I have told people there are 2 types. The quiet professionals and the pre Madonnas. One you may not even know they served, the other will sell himself like a used car salesman. From the USCCA commercials to his stuff, everything is about what he’s done and his accomplishments while in.

He forgot which award he got???? What a load of bollocks. There’s certain things you never forget
BS! Thats why you have your DD-214🤷🏻♂️ telling someone you forgot is 🤦🏻♂️.
@@ReturnToNothingness32147awards like honor grad are not on your 214.
Combat Tim just lied on this one. He said he got honor graduate but he got the “combat tomahawk” award. Which is kindof like a participation trophy. Honor grad means you were in the top 1% of the class. More than one person can get it. But it’s based on performance, test score etc.
@@wango556Every military school I attended issued a certificate signed by the Commandant for Honor Grads. They made a big deal about it, and often gave out physical awards as well with some type of token or plaque.
This was done in the presence of the entire class and Cadre, at the end of the graduation ceremony.
I didn’t serve. Lots of family that did, but I never pulled the trigger. That said, I like Tim and dislike Tim at the same time. He’s objectively very inspiring in many ways.. but in many other ways, he’s utterly terrible. He comes across as a hardcore grifter, and the saddest part is that he doesn’t need to be one, because the honest version of his story is interesting enough on its own.
Funny he doesn't remember mates that died yet he sure remembers the names of the teammates he beat up in the order that he beat them up when the team had to straighten him out.
I’m used to Navy SEALs airing out their drama in public, but watching SF dudes do this is super unusual.
They slipped up and let this clown go and now they regiment knows, his ass is grass!!!
Agreed - it’s all pretty pathetic, and not just Tim… all this cat and mouse bullshit over video and keyboard… at the end of the day, all these dudes are on TH-cam hoping people will follow them so they can make money, and I’m not knocking that, but making videos shitting on other people under the guise of “it’s the right thing to do…”, I don’t know, it comes off as super lame to me.
Sounds like neither of you have ever been apart of something that’s bigger than you.
@@Sandman27-88 you may be right… can you explain?
@@Sandman27-88 I don’t even know what that’s supposed to mean
We need the truth to come out on this guy, and anyone else lying about their service record for monetary gain.
If I can remember every single 3rd-2nd and 1st place pee wee soccer plastic award I have got, you can remember if you were an honor grad in Ranger School, Tim.
My Grandfather was a WW2 vet. He recalled names of fallen comrades from 70-80 years ago!!! My father is a Vietnam vet he recalls fallen comrades from 50 years ago!
He's just mad that someone held him accountable!
Exactly!!!

“19 year olds shouldn’t own AR15’s” - Tim Kennedy
I joined did 12 years and not profiting from it
He was trying so hard to get the tears going when he was lying about having a funeral every weekend. Guess he needs more acting school.
Kennedy’s grift is coming to an end.
These Bro Vet types & spot light rangers 🔦 are slowly starting to get critical review. Everyone is a hero in their own story. 📚 ....
He's a very likeable person, but I know a con man who was extremely likeable and loved who stole a lot from people and including from me. I'm not saying Tim is doing the same thing, or he is a thief. However, he is showing signs of anti social personality. He's in control and he is trying to cover it up. Liars dig their own fate.
Likeable? I understand this is subjective, and there are a lot of people, including myself, who never perceived him as likable. I cant like narcissistic, immature egomaniacs.
Your title explains this perfectly. I’m a retired cop and looked for exactly this.
Tim is lying, he can't even look at the camera, I seen him on another podcast with John Lovell and he did the same, it's all about him .
" Guys, i screwed up. I co-signed a book that i knew had lies in it, and I shouldn't have . Theres nothing I can do about the past, but moving forward, all proceeds of the book will go to my lost teammates ( name them all by full name ) im sorry. " That would be the best and only way to get out of this with some honor . He just kicked the hornets nest trying to defend this.
Tim has been corrupted by the money and fame. He will never give that up no matter what
Brother, thank you SO MUCH for coming out with this!!!
No more Quiet Professionals any more 😢
"Big Respect" to you and your channel Jay. ACCOUNTABILITY is indeed very important like one's namesake.
Every TH-cam veteran is the ultimate warrior and best operator to ever do it, we get it…
Main Character syndrome... 🗣
Really appreciate all the work you specifically have done bringing things like this to light (just found your podcast this year). I know it's not your main mission with the channel, but thanks. I used to follow Tim a lot, got him to autograph the book presale, then one day his daily posts just seemed annoying so I unfollowed up before I even got to read the book.
Like yall have said, what he's accomplished in life alone is amazing, but the need to go over the top has ruined it all. Thanks again!
My wife a APRN, Flight Nurse, ER Nurse, and Clinical Psychologist wactched Combat Timmies Video. Her first comment, playing victim, narcissism and sociopathic tendencies. Then she said he needed a forehead reduction lol. 😂😂
I’d say he’s got some PTSD and possibly a TBI. He has some of the symptoms.

Wow didn’t know nurses were experts in that

Have a great day GBC. Always appreciate your sage council and views.
Bro same I know the name of every single patient/team mate I have lost. I know because I find myself thinking of them more than I care to admit.
The DD214 you get upon EAS is only as good as your S1 shop clerks. Mine's missing many awards and Ops. I had to make contact with the Board of Naval Corrections to get my EAS date corrected. That was worse than having a triple root canal. The awards I'm missing isn't a huge deal. It's history. It was the greatest honor and privilege of my life to serve as a Marine grunt for 16+ years.
This is also true
You know damn well if anyone is awarded combat valor awards, will make sure they are on the DD214 before they sign.
NO ONE would forget to hit up the S1 to make sure they got a purple heart or valor award added to the ERB. Purple hearts were hard to come by at that point.
@@8551-w5v and some people don't pay attention to the DD214 - and then, like you said, it's a hassle that is questionable to deal with. The most important part is the "honorable service discharge."
You can’t get those awards on your dd214 unless you have the signed orders that come with it if you lose those they can’t put them on your erb or dd214 I learned the hard way
He breaks direct eye contact at most important moments 😂😂
Tim, when are you going to tell us about that time in Argentina when you were surrounded by 100 Nazis and you vanquished them one by one with your Samurai sword?
Thanks so much Jay for laying it out plain and simple. I had no clue about the Antihero podcast until I watched you Nate, Jake, and don't hate me but sorry I haven't committed the other names to memory. I watched Antihero, then TK responded and his is obviously in explain and defend mode. Rock on Sir, thanks for keeping it real!
Thanks for saying all of this. I thought the whole time between his body language, articulation and tone, eye contact, and the setting, it was full of deception.
More veterans like this…
The President clasps the medal around my neck. Applause fills the room. But I know it’s not for me alone. I look at my mom and dad. I look at Brennan’s parents and I look at Mendoza’s. And I try to communicate to Brennan and Mendoza wordlessly: This is for you . . . and for everyone who has fought and died. For everyone who has made the ultimate sacrifice. I am not a hero. I’m just a soldier.
-Salvatore A. Giunta, from Living with Honor
Sounds like a Politician in the making
apparently he went to sfartaetc 3 times : was blue barrelled in the company one , failed the shoot stress the second time , and passed the 3rd time
TK joined the military in 2004....how was he in combat in 2003? time stamp 16:05 of him speaking in your video is him embellishing
Looks like someone might be panicking about getting his tab pulled or PNG'ed at National Guard. That would be a brand disaster.
He won’t get it pulled he already said people he work with told Brent they wouldn’t talk with him
I doubt he'll get PNG'd.. he's too much of a propaganda tool for the military machine.
@Beetlejuice67668 how do we even know that's true? On the Valhalla podcast they were saying they had guys that were in the book and served with kennedy that are willing to come on the record about him lying.
@@Aaron-ej9qlbut that will be a he said she said thing. They will toss it up to remembering things differently
@@eriklambert3809 but if it's many vs one, there's good chance it's the one that's lying. If tim can get a group from the 200 strong vehicle convoy he said got attacked to verify his story then he can have a case. If a group from the convoy all say he's lying then he's probably lying. Him saying his FOB was overrun by Iranians of all things. Well, that would just be in the news. Iran trying to over run a US base is unheard of. There should also be people from that FOB that was attacked that would be able to corroborate this story which somehow missed media attention as well.
Was waiting for the response and am surprised at the lqck of accountability
Being a distinguished grad in any military school is something you hang your hat on, talk shit and boast about your entire career. You would know and remember if that was the case. Definitely not a book writing oversight.
Listen to it audio only, no video. Just the voice pattern is a concern.
Keep up the good work GBC.
I have respect for Tim and his service.
well check his podcast with Chris Williamson, where he claimed the 50. could rip off someone's arm just passing by 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 he is living in movie of his own production 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
you might be mistaking him with Nick Irving
Yup
It's sad. You all are such heroes; there's no need to exaggerate, let alone lie. We'll never forget!
Tim lies like a politician
See TK's "police training" videos. 🚔 Wierd. If I were a PD chief or sheriff, I would not pay TK to do any speech 🗣 training.
@@DavidLLambertmobileno shit. Talk about training cops to treat American citizens like enemy soldiers! I couldn't believe that shit came out of his mouth. With that and his 2a stance, I lost any respect I ever had for him.
great video brother
Tim was in a secret unit above delta. He exclusively trained in the art of deception and b.s
I'm confused by how your apparently "down range" 🏜 in a combat zone with NO orders, team, command? Working for who exactly? 🤔 It's like the crazy but TRUE story of the wierd US guy who went to Afghanistan alone. 🇦🇫
I did not get a detailed DD214 when I got out of the Army Reserve and National Guard. All I got were memos saying Honorable Discharge....just saying...

Along with over 40yrs of law enforcement, medic, and contractor in several countries I spent nearly 10 years as full time Advanced EMT with a 911 ambulance service. I could take off as much as I needed for goin out of the country and while i can't remember everyone we saved I can remember everyone we couldn't. If not names, may have never known the names, but the faces and circumstances. I remember every law enforcement officer we lost locally we lost. Most of those in 3 states. No one in the area where we lives knows what I do or what I have done over the years or where I've been. I have never tried to promote what I have done and never will. In fact I will die as anonymously as I have lived. I've actually been seen by thousands, possibly millions, of folks who never knew who I was. Wasn't out there to be a "star".
Kennedy is the most self promoting soldier or other public servant I have ever seen and while nothing actually wrong with that why the embellishments or outright lies? His record should have stood for itself.
Ultimately I will never visit ANY site or channel involving his name.
Phukim.
Can’t get over the book detailing battlefield injuries yet DD214 details no Purple Hearts yet nine awarded. While I’m no veteran my dad has Purple Hearts and a silver star from Vietnam and a 30 year army career ending in 1995.
Sorry typo none awarded
RAMBO , John Timmy Rambo i think it was 100 grenades and one RPG. Thank GOD for Green Beret Chronicles always keeping shit real BRAVO ZULU Jay keep up your good work.
John "Shreck" McPhee has the best story about Tim Kennedy, he told it to Shawn Ryan.
I have a school, MCIWS (Marine Corps Instructor of Water Survival) that was not on my DD214 when I got out. Waaaaaay different than a Purple Heart. I’m saying, it could have happened to Tim but like you said, a Purple Heart is huge and if I was Tim, I’d be asking why my Purple Heart wasn’t on my DD214.
Glad to see everyone calling out these liars. I'm here for it.
Thanks
