I hate to say Black Hawk Down is my favorite film because I know it’s not entertainment, but it is. I appreciate and admire every service member involved. Thank you.
Yh let’s say thank you for an event/ film that killed nearly over 300+ innocent Somalis did you know this?? U want facts! Those same choppers targeted a building full of Somali kids, women, men, and said it was an accident, the audacity, to say the Somali general was supposedly in there, and they wonder why soo many Somalis joined in smh, you can’t hide the truth, there is a reason why ppl want Somalia in chaos too 5 oil reserves in the world not even counting onshore, we literally own a ocean the Indian Ocean in the Most strategic area, lithium, etc, and everyone knows this, all I say is look at Somalia before the 1977 Ogaden civil war in which we fought for our land, HALF of EThopia belongs to Somalia it’s called the Ogaden Region historically inhabited by Somalis, part of Greater Somalia, largest single ethnic group to inhabit the largest landmass in Africa, hence why we went to war and got back 85% of OUR territory in a Month until EThopia begged the world for help and it was the whole world against Greater 🇸🇴 bc of our Potential when we were united look into history more clearer and smarter pls, nobody gonna cry abt 10 American lives compared to 300+ Somali lives GTFOH 🇸🇴
Went to high school and played football with Col. Lechner and he was always a stand up guy. Massive respect for your service JIm. Gotta hand it to you for having the foresight and drive that you did at such a young age.
What about the 300+ Somalis who died in a building that day who were Mistakenly targeted As the Americans thought the Somali general was in there but he wasn’t, more than 300+ Somali kids, women, men died and y’all wanna cry abt 10 lives GTFOH, they had ulterior motives as to why they were there in the first place, Somalia is RICH in Resources
Jocko should 100% start doing Audio Books for people. There's something incredible about how he reads people's books. This one was great. The Best 1 that was hands down Extra Extra incredible was RKF Jr.'s, that was such a Powerful Read. Talking about JFK's funeral is was Powerful.
Jocko I’m a Naval vet I would like to comment on Walter Reed hospital. The reason it is such a great medical facility is due to a radio Dj named Don Imus had visited there probably about 2003. And he noticed how decrepit it was and due to the Clinton years of low priority funding all military facilities. Don Imus,over national radio would campaign to fund the hospital. So the government listened.
@@theobvious1958those guys in Sandles have fought their whole lives for multiple generations since the Russians. What good is AirPower when we can’t use it because of civilians and politicians. We could’ve taken both countries in a week with no rules of engagement like we did the first time
First off this is so awesome we need more black hawk down content!! Second i just finished Leadership Strategy and Tactics and it was an amazing read for somebody who couldnt get in the army due to a disease but wanted to learn more about leadership!
They said this whole battle is on video I don't remember seeing anything besides some video from the air of one of the Blackhawks going down. Does anybody have a link to the original footage??
this is nuts, i remember this back in the day, thank you jocko for making light of this situation (yes i've only heard the first ten minutes lol, i'll give a better detail later on)
@@Orangecountybowhunter Shawn Ryan's interview with Tom Satterly gives a little more detail. Tom opens up a little more because that was the last interview he was ever going to do about that battle.
I worked with a guy who was on the ground in that battle. I forget his name, its been 22 years since I saw him, but he had transitioned to Apache pilot by time I met him. I was a crew chief.
Great episode thank you for your service cliff is my cousin my name is Pete Wolcott. I can’t imagine going through all of the things y’all do I’m proud of you all for everything y’all do for our country just wish it would have went down differently. Again thank you @james-lechner
i am still catching up the old episodes, on episode 245, Echo was holding the line on adding effects to the youtube podcast. I can respect that but it would be nice to have sound effects where appropriate and perhaps an explosion cgi occasionally. As I progress to catch up, I would be pleasantly surprised if there are episodes with CGI/effects. Just saying.
I just listened to the preview of his audiobook and it told me nothing about the book. It just told me about the troubles of trying to write a book. I don’t know debating on buying it. Haven’t listened to the podcast yet.
My childhood town was Lisbon, Maine. I met Thomas Field's father several times and drove on the Thomas Field Memorial Highway just about every day. Our community still feels the waves from this unfortunate event.
Thanks Jocko for covering these stories. 🫡 chesty puller father and son episodes And into the fire beyond the call of duty book reads and now this episode brought tears to my eyes. Much love and respect
Col James seems a great guest. Why it became a poor book read and stories of the interviewer trying to sound "hard" is crazy. Col James has an amazing insight, if he'd been allowed to talk and; the reason for tuning in!
TH-cam keeps automatically randomly playing this channels videos I wake up and a video from this channel is playing its been goin on for a week it’s real annoying.. How do I get it to stop?
The reason military is struggling to build a great unit it’s because it lost it way now people go into the military for a hellcat or to help Israel so this military will only go down from now on reaching its best in the late 1900s since 2000s we been on the decline
This is why you will never build servicemen and will keep harbouring baby killers it’s to late for America military we need new people on that leadership
I can't stay for the whole episode. Because my brain is on the children and figuring out how to raise awareness about my ideas of how we can prevent sexual assault, or at least try
Sorry but is that really being a hero by giving the rope to other people then drowning yourself? Or is it being stupid? Sorry but unless thr person you were handing the rope to was a young child, then why save them if they are as capable as you r? Sounds stupid to me.
Fun facts, women or kids with an ak, running ammo, or acting as spotters are all acts that make you a combatant. Age and gender isn't a factor with bullets, grenades, rpgs. Its sad but go peddle your lies elsewhere.
I know you're not in charge of all service. Members, and you're just a service member yourself. However, I'm talking specifically about policemen, but I know a lot of people that work on the police force or at police departments have background in military. So what I'm wondering is, why are there like hundreds of thousands of victims of abuse? From people such as P diddy and when I say hundreds and thousands, I mean, like the cartel victims of trafficking too, how come nobody feels empowered or safe to say anything Ali Carter talks about how she wanted to say something when she was 14 or she tried she put up a video and then she took it right back down. Now that touched me because I've done that I had schizophrenia, I thought people were following me and whatever, and so I understood her and it made me think, why isn't anybody talking about draining the police department swamp, and if a lot of these police officers that are selling out? Are starting their careers in the military? Then some moral re-education needs to be happening there in the military and I know you train seals and stuff, so maybe you know, one ear turns into 10 ears, so if you tell 10 people maybe dolto 10 more people that will tell 20 people, and maybe they'll think, and I don't know. Something has to change with the police department with the service. Members with the people that we go to to be like, help me. Somebody's trying to hurt me, save me, but instead, it's like we have nowhere to go and I don't know who else to tell I i told chuck grassley, i'm going to tell, I don't know who else to tell
Does everyone really need to tell their story, if you cant keep up the energy and sell it why sell it. No excitement same monotone voice no laughing, no good childhood stories (my favorite) just the same story but dull
Jocko should do the audible for all military memoirs. The way he reads these, and especially John Stryker Meyers stuff is just incredible
I hate to say Black Hawk Down is my favorite film because I know it’s not entertainment, but it is.
I appreciate and admire every service member involved.

1. Leadership.
2. Brotherhood.
3. Survive.
4. Die.
