- This week’s Urban Valor episode features Marine combat veteran, Jose Gasca. Jose grew up in the gang projects of Los Angeles during the early 80’s. He was inspired by his older brother to join the Marines and was a member of the Fleet Anti-Terrorism Security Team for his first assignment.
Jose then got attached to 2/2 Fox Co. and went with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Ops Capable) during the invasion of Iraq. Since getting out of the Marines, Jose founded Fighting Hole Jiu Jitsu, a nonprofit organization allowing veterans to train jiu Jitsu for free to assist the mental health epidemic within the veteran community.
Jose also shares about veteran mental health and the challenges faced by combat veterans as he discusses Fighting Hole Jiu Jitsu.
We're incredibly thankful for the opportunity to sit down with Marine Combat Veteran Jose Gasca as he shares his incredible stories as well as the good he's doing for veterans today!

Came for wicked combat story, stayed for heartfelt conversation.
YES! That’s what we love to hear. Thanks Dax!
2/2 Fox bro! Served with Gasca in same platoon and squad! Good to see he’s doing well! RIP Speer! 🇺🇸
Semper Fi brother! 2/2 Golf here 🤘🏻
Hell yeah bro 2/2 Golf here as well. R. I.P Speers. I remember that day. Not long after we got there.
@@UrbanValorTVYeah man. Gut. It's Onofer. Hit me up bro. I'm on LinkedIn
@@jordanonofer3886 Speers. That sound familiar. Was he a redhead with freckles?
Did anyone serve with native guys from east coast Canada? Bernardphillips n Francis/ gould?
It’s sad that there are so many ridiculous TH-cam channels out there that have millions of subscribers yet one as real as this doesn’t have much. I know that’s not what it’s about but it just trips me out. Keep up the great content. We need this. 👊🏼🙏
Thank you! TH-cam channels take a while to build honestly before the algorithm shows you "love", as long we we keep getting support and love from people like you, we will inevitably get there! Appreciate it!
Spread the word to your friends and family.
This is an immediate download for sure.
Gasca is the Man!
@@knockonolan Much love Knocko, thank you!
We lucky few get to enjoy some of the best stories on the internet. It is crazy a couple of weirdos can say “ island boys” and have millions of subscribers. The sheeple are plentiful. Lucky for them we sheepdogs will protect them. It’s becoming clear we need to let the herd thin a bit next time they need protection. We know the sheeple love the Shepard as they walk into the slaughter in the end.
Fuck bro you made me cry talking about your pops. I miss my dad every day.
🙏
Same here man
Also
So many good stories, my son is a Marine at Lejeune, im prior service army. The story about his Dad in his last moments was incredibly touching. We also need to pass along that there aint nothing wrong with shedding tears, its called being human. Much love!
Army brother, I completely agree. Being human is perfectly normal. I had a family loss during my second deployment and I also let out my tears and am completely a man about it.
Take care brother
Thats my cousin! Grew up in the same hood as well . Being a few years younger and not having an older brother he was someone I definitely looked up to. Proud of you brotha. Thanks for being there Jose. Great interview. Siempre fi motivators! 👊🏼🇺🇸.

I was on this Meu, attached with HMM263, Uss Nassau. Semper Fi 🇺🇸
This channel gives me hope, I'm just another grunt that's been through some shit, but I feel understood here.
Thank you so much D Rock. We def understand and appreciate you brother!
@@UrbanValorTV appreciate you and your channel and what you do. From one vet to another being able to have a safe space where we can come and share experiences on a safe platform is a God send.
@ UrbanValorTV let's get him on and hear the story!
My first duty station was FAST 88-92, and deployed with 2/8 in the 24 MEU in 96.
This dude loves his Daddy... Im blessed too still have my father.. semper Fi
What a great man Jose is! I'm a 41 year old mother of 3. I was almost 19 on 9/11. I want to turn back the clock, join the military, & go kick ass & party with all of you vets from my generation. Thank you all for your service. I love you. You give me hope in the current insanity. 🇺🇸 ❤
Thank you for your service Marine. You definitely opened up your heart on this interview. Semper Fi
Great Story! Well done!
Thanks brother!
Good interview! Both of us are from the same neighborhood/City and used the military to move on from there.
Oh that's what's up!
Semper fi brother.
Semper Fi 🇺🇸
Semper Fi, it was great to see you open up about combat, Marine Corps in general. But also about your father. Please take care of yourself. Much love and respect.
Keep doing these interviews! The channel WILL grow beautifully
Thank you, George 🙏
This is awesome God bless you man and all the brave folks in uniform 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸AMERICA FOR EVER 🤘🤘🤘
Thank you, Felipe! 🤘🏻🇺🇸
Tremendous interview! Semper Fi brothers!
Semper Fi! 🇺🇸
Another eye opening experience, thank you fellas
Amazing stories! Thanks for your service.
Semper Fi bro 👊🏻 Thank you for sharing
Semper Fi 👊🏻🇺🇸
So happy I found this channel. Such a humbling story, thanks for sharing this.
Thank you!
Thanks Jose, brother, you gave a powerful story. My condolences to the memory of your father. Growing up in challenging environments, such as neighborhoods, i am very familiar with this. I grew in one in Chicago. Regarding absentee father, i also did not have a full time father. I strongly believe all challenging experiences should be viewed as learning lessons. Instead of using the wrong emotions, like the destructive ones, we learn not to. Be a good father to your son, be kind to your wife or girlfriend, family, friends..Life in the Marines is not an easy climb. When I out, I dealt with major economic challenges. Luckily, they are in the past. Be strong brother.
Appreciate your words brother.
I can’t one day I’m going to be telling my story 🇺🇸
We'd love and be honored to hear it!
I love how at the beginning of the conversation, it’s sort of tense, and y’all are feeling each other out, and by 4-5 minutes in, y’all are jiving like old friends ❤
Powerful! My Gaffer (Grand Father) was USMC during WW2 in the Pacific. He made it back home. I didn’t serve but our family has the utmost respect for military and veterans. 15+ years of IT staffing and what warms my heart is helping Vets transition from the service.
Small world; back in the day, I was with Echo 2/2 ('85-'88) re-enlisted and spent two years with MSFCO, Keflavik ('88-'90) as a Cadre instructor. Semper Fi, brother,
On ones like these take some breaks give them time to recompose. And let them know it’s good to be talking about these things.
I personally think it doesn’t matter if it’s 4 against 2, 2 against 2 or 3 against 2.. street fights aren’t worth it. Now that I’m older I see it that way now. Too many ppl dying over a dumb bar fight , fight over a b!tch , etc. ITS NOT WORTH IT.
Mike Ritland was apart of the seal team that was deployed with him in Bahrain, and then to USS Cole.
Great testimony. 👍👍👍
Great channel great guys and ladies. Much ❤️. I been I the AF 22 years, it's cool to hear u guys perspective from the ground. So much sacrifice from you all. Respect.
I think this is a guy I could sit down and have a beer with. His story hit pretty close to home. Good luck with the rest of your journey.
Just found this channel. Great content. I miss being around Marines. Semper Fi brothers.
Semper Fi brother 🇺🇸
I listen to this everyday on my 2hr rides to work check out combat veterans podcast and Billing gazzet podcast
One word.-solid..
God bless you bro thank you
God bless you ma’am. I wish you peace and happiness. Thanks for sharing your story.
Deeply grateful for and to you
Thanks for sharing your experience
Bro I absolutely love this channel. Right next to the Shawn Ryan Show in quality no doubt. I wish a lot more people were aware about it though
Thank you for your Service Sir. Wow... 7 friends lost, those are insane statistics. There should be some sort of mandatory training/assistance as part of a soldiers career after combat service.
Dude looks like a Mexican Bruce Willis lol
LOL
Classic hilarious
I want an interviewer interviewed
Hard dude
I was in Iceland 89, Semper Fi
I think these guys really need to write books on their service. When I was a kid I would read a lot of personal stories about Vietnam. Some WW2 but not much. Those guys really didn't write a lot of personal accounts books
The stories they don't want us to hear
🇺🇸🤘
Appreciate the support Joshua!
Do navy soldiers have weapons on the boat like what weapons do navy personel arm them selves with to hold security I know there is seals on the ships most of the time but non seals what's there perfered weapon
Sounds like typical yanks that cant hold there liquer again. I was at Bahrain I loved it and the base was amazing. We had a few drinks and started singing. The yanks didnt like it and ran off. Marine security came in armed and told us to leave. 😂 weird bunch
Why marines always gotta lie..just say department of the navy hahaha
Army all the way! Love all my bros!
For the Yemen thing
