    My dad was a marine and was at mateo for 10 years. He fought in Operation Iraqi Freedom and lost alot of buddies. While we were watching this he said hes pretty sure he knew Nick. And he use to walk up to the crosses all the time to say hey to his brothers. He started tearing up when he saw them crosses and ive only seen him cry but a few times in my 14 years of living, just shows how hard of a subject this is. Much love my man God bless and thank you for your service.

Whenever you make the hike next look to the far right of the main cross to find his headstone (Menachem Mendel Goldbloom) and give him a Lil Sumpin Ale if your feeling generous :)

Civilians think they understand...but I don't think they ever truly will. Thanks for your dedication and service, Marine.

      @akaoreoo9604, the best advice I can give you as a new enlistee is to be yourself. Don’t try to be like anyone else, but transform yourself through strengthening of your mind and body. Never settle for the status quo, but don’t hold yourself higher than the brother on your flank. Respect everyone, but respect yourself more than anyone. Seek the one true king with all your heart and mind and soul.
      Do all these things and greatness will cover you and protect you.

      Good luck I've been out for 2 years. My best advice is to run as much as you can until you go. The first month will be the hardest adjusting. The second month you'll know the routine. Your 3rd and last month you'll be conditioned. In your last month try and get the DI to laugh or crack a smile. You'll understand when you're there lol. Lastly if you can get your wisdom teeth out before you go otherwise you'll regret not doing it in advance.

Great times, a lot of pain, humped all those hills when they had real names not numbers. I was there before the 7th was moved to 29 Palms.
    I had a lot of friends in 2/5 back in the day as well. Good drinking buddies.
    Looks like San Clemente’s hasn’t changed with the surfer crowd!
    Sadly, all the memorials are new! Pendleton will always have a part of my soul!

    Camp San Mateo, ani’t the same from 1977-‘80. There used to be a rifle range N.E. Of the Post Office, which you road by. I made a lengthier comment, a minute ago, about “1stSgt’s Hill” we called it Hill 7. At 65 this olé Marine still rides, humps (backpack hikes, for the CivDiv.) and shoots (not as offed as I should). I do live in Davey Crockett country, and am a distant descent of Him.

    One of the best video's I've seen as a former Devil Dog 2/4 (00-04) it's been a long time since I've seen the top of 1st Sgt Hill. Motivates me to make that trip myself I've been avoiding for almost 20 yrs. Semper Fi. Yutttttt

    the first video of you that popped up in my recommendations was the last time you went on base with your 636, and i was starting to get back into bikes, slowly buying gear and saving for the licence and the bike. Now this video uploads, and i am almost done with the licence, getting the bike in less than a month. Been loving your content since i discovered it, and still enjoying it to this day. Thanks a lot, keep up the good vibes !

Thanks for not only posting sick riding videos, but also always adding in some valuable info. I just started riding last year. I’m planning on doing some vlogging and I’m definitely going to get some inspiration from your page!! Thanks for everything you do brother 🙏🙏

    Maybe I'm getting older or maybe because I'm an army veteran (2007-2018), I always get choked up when I watch these videos. I was stationed near DC and had to go to Walter Reed for specialty appointments with my wife but she hated going there because there would be so many kids 18-20 yrs old missing an arm or a leg. I got out few years ago and work in DC but I still can't bring myself to visit the Arlington National Cemetery. Watching this brought back memories of my 3 friends that died in combat.

    We earned out life-long title but it comes with a life-long commitment. May we always speak the names of our fallen Brothers.

My home is under one of the busiest training routes for the MC and AF. Every time an F18, Harrier V22, F15 or 53echo flies low over my home makes me grin ear to ear.

    I took my then girlfriend, now wife back to the MCAGCC-MAGTFTC a couple years after I EAS’d. I was as giddy as a school girl, and she acted interested, but I could tell it really didn’t mean much to her. You had to have lived the life to truly comprehend the going-back experience.
    I haven’t been back since, but just recently, I got to shake the hand of my last Company 1st Sergeant in 3/4, WPNS CO, who went on to become the 17th Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps, Michael Barrett, at a Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation gala. It was an incredibly humbling and soul fulfilling experience.

    @brian636 thank you man for doing this! It helps me every single year because my dad was 3rd marine air wing in Vietnam and he passed when I was 19 and that was my best friend on the planet. I never grew up with a mother around so I’ve been alone per say since his death and it’s been hard and I look forward to this video every year that you do it because I lost him and a few other buddies out of the 5th as well!
    Keep doing what your doing man much love, and thank you for your service to our country brother!!!

    It's always heartwarming to me to see fellow Marine Veterans paying respect to our fallen brethren and really just re-visiting the active duty Marines on base does wonders for their morale even if they don't know you. The young Marines need to know that it doesn't end when you take off the uniform for the last time. We were all insulated in our little bubbles when we served regardless of MOS. I know I've lost more than a few brothers/sisters along the way. Thank you for sharing the video with us. It gave that me that warm feeling. I take my family to visit and RV trailer camp at Camp Pendleton every year. MSgt, USMC(Ret.) '95-'15
