Lori Piestewa was a native Arizonan of Hopi Native American and Mexican American descent. After her passing Lori was awarded the Purple Heart and Prisoner of War Medal. The U.S. Army posthumously promoted her from private first class to specialist. The State of Arizona also honored Lori by renaming one of the mountains surrounding Phoenix Piestewa Peak. More is reported about Jessica, and rightfully so, but I also think it's important to remember Lori. RIP.
I wrote a letter and sent it to Lori’s parents after this happened - I tried to convey how much we as a country and as a people - appreciated her bravery and commitment and her sacrifice 🩷
@@Bear230grain one died before anyone knew where they were and one was saved in a massive operation. that's why one is a bigger story and one isn't. had jessica died before they were located and Lori rescued it'd be the same big story. stfu with that bullshit
I was a Medic in the North Carolina Army National Guard from 1981 to 1987. I joined on my 17th Birthday and My Mom had to sign giving me permission to join. When I was at Basic Training in 1982 at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri it was pointed out there was a Trainee Discharge program for those who could not pass Basic Training. One Soldier in my company wanted out and he could not pass Basic Training, so they discharged him.
In 1975 took my basic and AIT training at Fort Leonard Wood. I remember the Drill Sargeant told us we could quit during basic and a couple of guys did. They were still working in the laundry when we graduated. Their discharge paperwork was not a high priority.
Thats where my cousin (a Marine) was KIA in March 2003 in the battle of Nasiriyah. RIP lcpl Donald J Cline. He was awarded the silver star. Its the US 2nd highest award. The medal of honor is the first.
Jessica’s rescue was early in the invasion, while the rescue of two of her unit members was near the end of major combat operations. I remember the rescue of the two near the end, and knowing about the unit being hit with personnel missing. (I was active duty in the Marine Corps at the time attached to RCT-5.) I kind of heard about Jessica’s rescue, but was rather busy at that time.
Yall see the one about how dangerous US bases can be (obviously not most tho)? Love our military but it shines a light on some stuff that’s.. interesting. I think I saw it on another channel too… can’t remember which. 🤓🍻
Every time I see that video of bush literally finding out is so haunting to me, because I remember seeing that the first time she just thinking that was a face of a man who found out America is gong to have to really start rolling some heads. Crazy moment
You should read the official report. Unfortunately it was a leadership screw up. Convoy got lost more than once and kept going back through An Nasiriya trying to find MSR Jackson. 3rd time after turning around coming back through they got hit.
I went through basic training at Fort Benning back in 2001 to be an Infantryman (front line combat troops) same time as her, and we never had an opportunity to opt out or leave. Granted one could fail their final PT test multiple times and one would get kicked out then, its not some they advertise though.
For us in the US it's Basic then Advance Individual Training (AIT). Once you graduate AIT you're automatically sent to your duty location. Once with your unit there are very, very few ways for you to dodge a deployment. Usually get promoted out of the Unit or for females get pregnant.
they didn't not show the inside because of other patients...patient confidentiality isn't a thing in war, especially a foreign country. they didn't show the inside operation because it would very clearly give away how they operate, and enemies would use that for their counter operations/planning and defense.
As an Army veteran, this should have never happened, Bush lied, and people died. A soldier does what a soldiers told, to the utmost of the ability. And to Lori Piestewa, rest in peace. Hooah!
Grace period or not. There wasn't many American military members that would have opted out immediately after 9/11. We watched 3000 people die for no reason and avenging them wasn't was not even a question. Many joined immediately after.
From WV and most military I know have mixed feelings on her story. She made no effort to fight. It is a story of those that got her but I knew a few that had only bad words for her.
Congrats OB Dave! Good job Sugar Momma! Check out Andy Stumpf retired Navy Seal who helped rescue and interviewed Jessica Lynch on his podcast *Cleared Hot* ("we're danger close now.... you're cleared hot!") Good listen. He was also on Joe Rogan's show when he discussed this rescue also. Jessica continutes to have surgeries on her legs to this day. Very positive woman. Another good podcast Andy has is with retired Secret Service Agent Evy Poumpouras (the Towers fell down on her on 9-11). Enjoy.
What’s with the music? Can hardly hear the narrator. It dramatic enough on its own without the dramatic music. It’s not a movie where there’s loud music and you can’t hear the people talk.
so if you remember it, that means you weren't there, so chances are you don't know shit from shine ola. and calling USAF PJ's, Navy Seals and Delta Operators liars. Wake up Alice you're dreaming and stick to playing guitar, something you're good at.
You really need to do "The Rescue of Jessica Buchanan" - the 60 minutes TV interview one.

When a Soldier dies honorably while enlisted they are always promoted to the next rank.

I do appreciate that even though this was about rescuing Jessica, that they still honored the others who were casualties.
She did a podcast on 'Cleared Hot Podcast' with Andy Stumpf -He was one of the SEALs that was present during her extraction.
I just wanna say the PJ were the real heroes they tended to her and any medical issues. USAF PJ ❤

Thank you, for your service. 🇺🇸
mommy and daddy are fighting🥺😭
Dave has a sugar momma while he takes courses 🙂
I am a West Virginia and I can still remember the day we saw on the news that Jessica had been rescued the entire state celebrated her freedom
My buddy was part of her physical therapy team in West Virginia when she returned home for further treatment.
Thank you 😢
In the US, once you are sworn into the military you are committed.

Dave has sparked up many times and for many years 😂❤😂

Here's one grown ass crying man.
Damn Dave you just keep digging your own grave.🤣 Your on screen banter is hilarious.
About time PJ's get some respect in these rescue missions.
Gingers do have a soul!
Theres a video on here of her telling about her rescue in her own words. Its really good.

Cry more. Stop standing on your vet status as you don't speak for all of us
@@adamyoung9132 I'm not standing on my Vet status, It's my effing opinion, and I'm expressing it. Deal with it.
At the time I lived like 30 miles from where she was from. really big news in West Virginia.
Why is it always a Jessica?
Dang this one is scary as crap.
My ex took half of my pension. The b...h.
Sorry! 🔥😡
Saving Private Ryan is great but Apocalypse Now will always be the best war movie

Four different special forces teams to rescue a captured fuel truck driver?
because the intel they had was that they're were a ton of iraqi soldiers there, which turned out to not be accurate
@@blakett88 1 element of US special forces would do the job just fine
@@nickthompson6710 apparently the Pentagon disagrees with you since they sent in more than one
@@blakett88 ya got me there, SSGT Nick T called the Pentagon... mabey we just 2 special forces teams?
Band of Brothers is the best war movie. Although some might not consider it a film.
Generation Kill blew it away. Please educate yourself.
considering it's a miniseries, most would not consider it a film....
