I knew a guy that was blown up by I.E.D in Iraq. Lost one arm, both legs up to his hip, one of his hands and a lot of skin graphs. He always wore a shirt that said “I had a blast in Iraq”
Veterans like this should never have to worry about medical, housing, food or anything they need to make it day to day. Bless our veterans and soldiers.
Hey! They are ppl w a job, a job they CHOSE! These guys aren't draftees! If you want to pay soldiers forever, why not also midnight shift convenience store workers who DO NOT have a troop and mega weapons to defend themselves but are high risk targets for maiming and being killed? Get a clue. You are being schmoozed. Just another group looking for special dispensation. Not saying they shouldn't be thanked for their work but so should everyone else. As far as I know, the only threat to the American ppl are the American ppl themselves. That doesn't make soldiers anybody special.
@@WHBJr disability pay is tax free. Most states also waive property taxes. Us veterans are pretty well taken care of with that kind of stuff. It's the shit pay you are forced to live off of coupled with mediocre medical treatment that needs improvement.
The only fact is that wars are a tool To make money at the expense of peoples lives, specifically the ones innocently enough to convince it is for freedom. Instead of glorifying it maybe teaching kids why they shouldn't join is better.. I'd put money on that education rather than money to take care of damaged goods.

@@mccalltrader Same. Well sort of I was a photographer so to say I was in combat is a loose term. I was left behind to let the experts do their job while I documented. Those guys that have been in the shit day after day after day six to eight months every year…. No I can’t wrap my head around how difficult that would be
The thing that ticks me off about all of this is that they had to start a foundation to help vets like this - the government doesn't take care of us vets the way they should. Politicians should be forced to use the VA for all their medical needs and get the same pay as military enlisted, and then once out of office get nothing...
They don't need to get paid at all! They do favors for the large corporations and big tech, then get cushy board member jobs with insane pay after they leave office!
I agree. My stepdad was a marine in 2 years he had over 30 colonoscopies at Heinz va hospital by chicago. After 2 years of weekly trips 100 miles each way they had him in a wheelchair and as the elevator doors were closing the doctor stuck his hand in and the doors opened and the VA Dr said "Mr Danko, I'm sorry to tell you this but you have stage 4 colon cancer and need to make arrangements because you have less than a year to live." Then the VA doctor walked away. 2 years and over 30 colonoscopies and they didn't find it? Bull. My grandmother's oncologist said it was impossible to have that many colonoscopies and not catch it.
It takes a huge set of balls to so casually state that you no longer have any. That injury doesn’t change the fact that though I have a healthy set, he’s more of a man than I’ll ever be. Thank you for your sacrifice sir!
Like the green beret said in large doses its almost like ur in a dream induced state and u cant even feel ur body so its a perfect painkiller, especially if they dont know if ur allergic to any other drugs
I was ruined, not far into this. I wept, being wheelchair bound myself. I'm in a chair by all fault of my own, the tears were not for me, it was for the way this hero was able to relate his story. We love you for your ability to create the space for these men to share. Thanks Joe,
I’m late to your comment but I got shot 5 times in my right leg (once in the fem artery) in 2021. I was wheelchair bound for 5 months. I almost had to be amputated because of constant infection. Still suffer from bad nerve pain (maybe from metal rod). God bless you and yours stay strong ❤
Combat medic here...3 tours...also medically retired from combat injuries... I was 3rd Infantry Division and my first tour was the invasion of Iraq in 2003...respect to Justin, my fellow veteran and medic
People like Justin are my favorite kind of people. He’s the kind of guy whose “been through hell and walks out of the flames carrying buckets of water for those still consumed by the fire”
I respectfully disagree sir the amount of people thar care FAR outweigh those who don't care. Hope everything these guys touch turns to gold, God bless.
@brianthompson1838 I also respectfully disagree with your opinion. And my proof is all over the media. Where I live, I am completely and openly disrespected for being military be younger women and men to the point I don't even advertise that I'm ex military anymore. It's completely sad. I really wish I shared your hopes but I just don't anymore
My father, Jack, was a medic in WW2. He was in a Signal Corp outfit and landed on the 2nd day at Omaha Beach and was also at the Battle of the Bulge. He saw a lot of misery and I didn't hear him complain. He was awarded two Bronze Stars and I never knew this until after his death. He was a good man and I miss him.
So many veterans won’t speak of the experiences they went through in battle, not because they don’t want to or because they’re humble about it but because it’s just too painful to relive. Many of them had PTSD but didn’t even know because it was just called shellshock and remained misunderstood. Rehashing the events and speaking out about them would probably be too much to go through. That’s not to say they never think about the things that happened to them or the friends they lost, but voicing it is another level. I have the greatest respect for all veterans no matter how good or bad their time was, but I have the most respect for the ones who can talk about things because it takes so much bravery to go through it and bring it up again.
Grandpa j didnt ever talk about his service. I didn't even know what the curio case full of medals and stars was until they gave him the 21 gun sendoff. He wanted, more than anything, to fly, but his balls must have been to big and his medic bag too heavy. Miss you papa j. Hope you're soaring up there.
OMG, Justin Lascek was my roomate in college at GA Southern University. No Joke. We bonded over guitar hero, football and love of country music. He was an outstanding friend and excellent student. I graduated a year before and lost touch; had no earthly idea that he had served in the military and then wounded. I have tears in my eyes that I personally know this fellow and can attest to his good nature. I am so proud to call you a friend and fellow American. You, like all of our veterans who've served are literally the heart and soul of America and a hero. God Bless you Justin. My Bandito Brother! Take care on your journey. Your sacrifice will never be forgotten So weird I found this on JRE, but life is like that sometimes.
It goes to show you that there is a hero in all of us if you can find it. I'm a Viet Nam era vet, served in 82nd airborne at Ft Bragg, sometimes trained with or against these guys, BADASS mother fuckers.
Such a humbling man. Notice how when he describes his severe pain and injuries, he’ll lead in to saying “but others have it worst” or puts his focus and care into others as opposed to him self and his pains. We need more men, and women, like this in the world. Thank you for your service, brother.
Lots of my fellow brothers are exactly the same way. It's about your brother infront and behind you. I've been out 13 years and I still love them and have a connection that can't be duplicated. To me This guy is hero but you'll never hear him say that about himself.
Honestly!! Currently in the Army. I’m pog as hell not gonna lie. Seeing what infantry guys do impress me. But hearing about these SF guys and training with them. Like they’re a different fucking breed.
THERE'S NOTHING GOOD ABOUT HIRED MERCENARIES WHO KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE THROUGHOUT THE PLANET. IN FACT THAT'S PROBABLY THE WORST KIND OF PERSON THAT COULD EXIST.
My Best Life you obviously have no idea how the world works and live in a fantasy good men that are capable of evil things and hates doing them but will for the people who can’t is the only route to peace he’s a hero anyone who serves for there fellow countrymen is a hero if it wasn’t for people like them there would be a lot more chaos and a lot more terrorist organizations it’s human nature to want more then you need
My son was an amputee. He passed away last year destroying my world. He was my everything. He was the best son in the world. His insulin pump he got 2 days prior killed him in his sleep. It's heartbreaking.
People like this over there going through pure hell & we over here arguing about each other’s political views. Thank you to everyone who served this country.
scoldingwhisper exactly. Not to take a thing away from this guy and his experiences, but those of us having political arguments back here may be doing so because we’re fucking tired of seeing people of this sort of moral fortitude and character dying for someone else’s idea of sound economics and politics. Maybe we’re tired of being a country that stands for inflicting wounds like this (on our own and on those in the countries we fight), while our politicians and Wall Street execs laugh their way to the banks. Maybe we sit in utter disbelieve that can spend trillions to send young men like this to an early grave, but we can’t help them after? Shit, we can’t even help our own here! Some of the political squabbles here might help to prevent guys like this from getting their balls blown off or dying. You know, if the right people prevail.
Alex Baum Well fucking said, I couldn’t say it better if I tried my best. You’re probably gonna get hella unreasonable hate for it, but fuck it. Dying for politicians and rich people - fuck all that shit.
That's your perception, they aren't really fighting any real threat.. Americans have a point of view like these soldiers are defending your freedom lol. They aren't defending shit. They fight because some politicians have interests.. They die for nothing, but your public is fed all that bullshit and you guys think your soldiers are some heroes.. When your home is invaded then you fight and go to war. American politics isnt defending your freedom lol. Anyone can see that but an American. I mean no offense, these are facts. People who get hurt half a world away, it's their own fault. They are volunteers, for what? Cause they also believe they are defendinf American freedom lol. Iraq, Afghanistan would be better off without Americans as they have been for 3000 years and you would stikl sleep peaceful at night, cause Noone really gives a shit about killing you. The reason they will go out of their way to kill you at your own country, is because you invited theirs. That's about it.
As a South African vet (Angola mid 80’s Armoured reconnaissance & some conventional stuff against Angolans, Cubans, some Russkies) and now a Stage 4 cancer fighter - this man resonated so much. His trauma worse than mine but the pain & mental phases I’ve spent some time in and know what he’s talking about. What an example. No self pity. Thinks of others. Respect. 👊

I have had testicular nerve pain for 4 years now. I would always ask “why me?” Or “I have the worst life ever” to the point I saw no point to moving on in life.

What an inspiration and God bless him for doing a great service for this world
@@ChasMusician I don't know. Definitely ask your doctor about the pain. My brother said his primary doctor told him after the fact about 1 in 3 guys having pain after a vasectomy. If you want to go do it yourself, research trt and try it for a month. Your body will recover no problem after four shots if you don't see an improvement. Don't take my advice though. Just research it.
Kicking Methadone and Gabapentin sounds like a battle in itself - an then dealing with the PTSD and adapting to life as an amputee. The bloke is a legend. We salute you, sir.
Opioids are absolutely fucking brutal to kick. That in its self will cause serious depression, and I could even imagine losing your legs, balls, friends, getting divorced, and then the drug addiction. Fuck me this man is a beast!! He is inspiring to say the least
Dude methadone is the daddy of opioids! I was on for almost 10 years, kicking can make you suicidal for real. I thought I had reasons to stay on it, never mind, this guy is a beast. He describes the withdrawals perfectly.
Uncle Dutchy brother all these opioids to get off opioids are twice as bad. I was give a Butrans patch for 2 years, to help with pain. Come to find out it was a suboxone patch. For over 2 weeks I was shaking, and 2 years later I haven’t fully recovered. At this point I don’t think I will ever recover
The worst thing I found kicking opioids, was sobriety. My brain was like "Jesus Christ, normality sucks. Let's get high again." The longer you kick, the better it gets. Also, you're really supposed to ween yourself when In a methadone program (in my country, anyway). They taper you down so the withdrawal isn't as harsh, albeit over a longer time. Of course, half of the people on the done just end up scoring H or whatever anyway, and use the done as just another source. It's pretty screwed up. Neurologically speaking it takes ages for the brain to "repair". As for Ketamine, gotta be better for your health than PCP. Also dissociatives are great when you have a serious pain injury. Used it for a broken ankle. Also, less habit forming. Unless you really want to screw up your nueroreceptors
4:32 “there are guys worse than me so I’m just grateful to have what I have”. This guy is too great of a man for this world and a prime example of what all humans should strive to be in the heart…bless your soul.
@@TheLouisianan That's the craziest thing - I used to follow that blog so closely like in the early 2010s and randomly searched Justin to see what he'd been up to and discover this is what happened. Unbelievable.
I was shot 5 times in my right leg (once in the fem artery) in 2021. My leg was cut from the ankle to groin due to surgery to prevent further infection. I too was on ketamine (and other meds) but the way he describes it is spot on. I was out of mind and reality felt surreal. I asked my gf a few times was I still even alive. I was very hysterical and my vision was indescribable. Props to him he’s very strong ❤
As a former combat soldier I really appreciate You having vets on to tell the story of what war really… We’re all eager to get in the fight till you see your first brother die & you can’t explain that feeling… Really appreciateJoe doing these shows your the best brother!!!
It’s amazing how people like him can maintain a positive outlook on life after experiencing that kind of trauma. Ive felt like giving up after going through far less.
Nothing is more impressive and rewarding than to visit a VA hospital and sit with a veteran just to have a chat. I spent every day for 7 years visiting my sweetheart at the Long Beach VA. He was in the Spinal Cord section of the hospital. I’d see a vet sitting alone and shoot them a little smile. They would light up and before long we’d become friends. Everyone in the vicinity of a VA hospital should give it a try. Be a friend and an encourager. Show your love and gratitude.
I was smashed up in a car crash, i'll take my eleven back surgeries plus other stuff to what he has gone through. The mental strength is simply amazing, then throw in his empathy for his fellow soldiers, i tip my hat to him, what a wonderful person !
Yea, it immediately puts your "bad" days into perspective. It's unimaginable what this guy has endured and how he can still keep a positive attitude. I would not be able to do it.
I just recently had a spinal fusion the other day, and here I am thinking I’m in pain. Boy oh boy am I wrong. Can’t imagine what pain this man must have felt. God bless him.
@Qasim Fiaz isn't special at all? Lol what a douche thing to say, you serve your country and put your life in danger? Or you just sit at home and type shit like this for fun, have some respect
I worked with a guy that after we retired and he died of a heart attack I found out that during Vietnam he was a green beret and actually taught hand to hand combat. He never let me know , he did have some issues about his past , he had a shrink and I noticed his wife was a little nervous talking about things ,God bless these guys.
My great grandpa was at pearl harbour and survived and he got took out by a heart attack after the war i cant remember what year it was but im pretty sure my oldest uncle was just a baby he was dead way before i was born i love all the vets the same but its world war two and in Vietnam that always get me choked up they always gives me choked up now world war II gives me choked up for the obvious reasons and Vietnam just gets me choked up because people treated our Vietnam vets wrong really wrong
But i have respect for all our veterans an i thank them all for when we became a country when we had the civil war an every war after that everyone thats fought for this country i thank an i am grateful
Man thank you for your service brother I'm sorry about your injuries my son lost his feet to an IED in Afghanistan I understand thank you for spending your time tell us how it is
A man who had his clankers blown off has an even bigger set of clankers than 90% of the people I know. Nothing but respect and I hope his life works out for him man. Dudes so articulate and just dope sounding. I'd have a beer with him if he could put up with me long enough.
This is a truly incredible human being. The fact that whenever his injuries are brought up, he handles it with class and respect. He bring up his fallen soldiers or those who are more injured than him, as to say he’s lucky! That is an amazing outlook on life and applaud this man with my heart and soul. This is what a true warrior looks like
My father was a WWll vet served three years in Europe.he went over he was barely 19.I have three buddies that served in Vietnam.we are all 70 years plus now.the stories are horrendous of what they went thru and the things they saw.I have pictures from dad.how they had the mind to record this is another story.When he came home he couldn’t stand being there.he took off into rural British Columbia ,Canada.The toll that they paid mentally is incredible.in those days they didn’t have ptsd treatment or the drugs for pain that they have now.the government that they offered their lives for largely puts them out to pasture so to speak.They are tossed aside like yesterdays garbage.absolutely shocking what these brave and courageous men and women have to endure in war…….and in peace at home.
I’m sorry that happened to your family sir, know that the generations taking the torch are trying to end indiscriminate wars to prevent our vets from experiencing this again.

@Telios Abraxas I'm not a real Sufi? How'd you come to that conclusion? I'm assuming it's because your view of Sufi islam is basically a super hippie, modernist, non literalist, liberal & "spiritual" kind of islam? Lol yeah well it's TRUE I'm not any of those things (except spiritual) but you shouldn't make judgements about ALL sufis based on what a few popular western sufi preachers say lol. The kind of sufism popular in the western countries aren't the most influential ones in the muslim world Its a methodology within Islam which has been around for over a thousand years & the overwhelming majority of Sufis are very religious, conservative, believe in islamic rules, laws, etc. & there are plenty of Sufi Jihadi groups..
i actually worked on this guy back when i was stationed In germany. I was a surgical tech at the time, when he rolled back into the OR suite at the time we had to restart his heart. and we are the ones who amputated his right foot. i had to hold his left knee cap up with my body for a couple hours haha covered in blood. overall we worked on him for 2 days 8 hours each! good guy
I hope you know how appreciated, respected and admired you are. You are a hero and I hope when you look back it's with pride and not through the trauma lenses you had when living that hell.... From the bottom of my heart 💜 Thank You for your service.
Fortunately you can't really see that on camera either. I lost one in fifth grade. Docs thought it was cancer. I don't think about it at 52, but losing both at any age? ..... I agree .... DAMN!!!!
Wow I’m sitting here complaining about having to run around at work being real busy. Sounds like I need to stop and be grateful and thankful and Thank God that I have my health and the ability to do it. Hats off to this guy!!! He’s awesome!!!
Man, tell me about it. I failed my cdl drive test yesterday and was mad and bummed out until I came upon this and heard Justin story. I have no right to complain or be angry, especially when you have heroes like Justin, who sacrificed everything literally. Thank you again just for your service 🙏 ❤️.
Cousin landed on Omaha Beach, took a bullet in the arm went on fighting the in battle of the buldge. Jeep he was in hit a land mine, he woke up and could hear Germans talking. He waited awhile then crawled 7 miles to Amercan line. Was in the hospital for 1.5 years and married the nurse who cared for him. Died at 94 a few years ago, a good man.
Thank you! Over 400 cars at his funeral in a town of 1200. Had a 350 acre ranch bordering the strawberry wilderness area and shot monster elk off his deck. He was a good man and lived the good life.
I needed to watch this to help put in perspective how small my problems are in comparison. My heart goes out to all these people that have gone through this. I cried so hard. Thank you this helped pulled me out of depression that im fighting.
Perspective is important in both ways. In comparison to someone else your situation can look worse or better. However, it is good to look at your situation based on your own life. A self driven perspective helps you realize that compared to what you have lived through is why "this" is hard or easy compared to your experience. Going from rich to poor is felt more than starting poor and not progressing. The rich to poor commits suicide. The poor to poor smiles
Hey brother Justin - We fkn love you man - former Doc over here and it's good to hear you speak truth on substances like these - the rest of us don't have the standing/platform that you have - please talk about all of the medications that you can and hopefully that can advance some conversations forward and we can get society passed the stigmas...They've got me on adderol and Buprenorphine and Gabbapentin...a bunch of side effects with those - I hope that you are ok on your meds...Hang in there and stay safe my brother :)

@@controllertakes0skill278 "because you didn't suffer as badly as someone else, you didn't really suffer" using this logic, nobody at all can suffer except for the single person who is in the worst situation/is suffering the most in the entire world. fuck outta here with that garbage, people can experience bad things without that bad thing necessarily being as objectively bad as someone being tortured by a cartel or injured in combat. fuck off.
tay long dude you don’t gotta play the pain olympics lol I hate when ppl do this. Just cuz somebody went thru something “worse” doesn’t invalidate your own experience. Shit isn’t a competition. And what’s more, end of the day dude signed up for that shit. What happened to him is terrible but he wasn’t forced to go fight he did it by choice. Just cuz he chose to put himself there and experience all that terrible shit doesn’t automatically make your own personal dealings irrelevant
I cannot fathom how fucking insane that would be! And to be able in such (i use this word loosely) calm state after having your legs blown and being able to be like "right cut here, stitch there". Reminds me somewhat of the doctor in the artic who had remove his appendix himself with just a mirror.
its crazy how the love of his life left him and a man died right infront of him and he describes it as a rough day it’s puts in perspective how much they go through and how we could never handle that
He then went on to describe the time as "it was a pretty shitty year" just so matter of factly and so mildly. He is truly one of the good guys. I am a veteran and used to work for the VA and have been around a hell of a lot of veterans and there are typically two kinds. You've got the whiny, entitled sonsofbitches who think that the world owes them everything for serving a lousy 4 year hitch and never hearing a shot fired in anger and probably didn't even leave the States or if they did it was to a decent allied country and they pushed a broom or some shit like that all day. Then you've got the guys like Justin who not only see combat but experience and suffer through all kinds of hell and sum it up with just "it was a pretty shitty year." God bless him. That's a real man and a real American hero right there but I bet you my last dollar that he would deny that.
It truly puts everything in perspective. Most people are trying to figure put how to claim victimhood status for attention. And then there's this mam. Who's a true victim on so many levels and he sweeps it away suffering away like it's crumbs. Then in hard core heroic fashion, all he want to do is help the families of his fallen Brothers. He is a real man and an extreme hero. I thank him for be an incredible inspiration!
@@guygrimmett1764 You're right. Hearing this man's story I was immediately reminded of the kind of narcissitic, self-congratulatory circlejerking I now so often see amongst groups of Gen Zs and younger Millennials all telling each other how stunning and brave they are for doing absolutely f*ck all. I have a good friend who's former SBS and suffers with PTSD quite badly. He's hardly talked about what he experienced although the few things he's hinted at tell me enough. One of the rare times I've really seen him get angry was when we were at a party and some whiny woke soyboy who's never even been in cubs let alone the military started telling everyone how he had PTSD because he was once beaten up for being left-wing (which I highly doubt even happened judging by how unheard of that is plus his refusal to give any details of his story). There are now tens of millions of whining crying victims who are a victim of nothing but their own delusions, yet they get far more attention and benefits than guys like this green beret who actually deserve to never have to worry about anything again for the rest of their lives.

@@bluecord85 maybe if you didn't join the military you wouldn't have had to deal with all of the trauma....just sayin. Most of these military guys this man included said 'they like combat'. Combat in war means killing people, so they like killing people but don't like the trauma that come with it and now I have to feel sorry for a guy that got his balls blown off by his own decision to go kill people on the other side of the planet ? Play stupid games win stupid prizes, am I missing something here ?
This guy has a true warriors ethos. He’s been thru unimaginable hell and is undoubtedly still conquering demons like depression and pain but he has chosen to continue to be a warrior in new and different ways for different kinds of battles. The best thing a soldier who is fighting PTSD can do is to find that new thing to fight for or fight against. Loss of purpose is what kills soldiers after the war. Life is meant to be lived with purpose so find it and keep living brothers (and sisters).

"almost died pretty hard" the way he said that so nonchalantly was mad savage Edit thanks for all the likes folks never gotten more than fifty or sixty!! so I feel like a cool dude reaching over 800!! And to the people in the comments yeah whatever well 800 people liked the comment or agreed with it!! So Stay savage, folks!!
This guy is an inspiration as an amputee myself. Met a lot of military amputees at the hospital I was at. I lost mine on a motorcycle ripped my foot off was caught by the chain and my foot was taken into the wheel it was only hanging by a tendon. Opened forehead, my skin on my arms was scraped off. Was resuscitated on site went into the ER spent one hour without anesthesia cause of the blood loss and the surgeons had to act quick if they wanted to save my foot. So I screamed and fainted multiple times till I couldn’t take it no more and told them to cut it off. Went the hard way on becoming an amputee and the military amputees there helped me cope with the pain
@@KmvS86 well technically no 🤣 they couldn’t send blood down my foot and the surgeon said he couldn’t save it at the same time I told him just cut it off. I mean really there wasn’t much to cut off was only hanging by a piece of skin. My surgeon after saying sorry he was still trying but told just take it off pain was unbearable
Ironically, to so plainly state "I don't have any testicles either" takes more balls than most men have, these days. Hate that the man has suffered, but he's proven his mettle.

I knew a guy that was blown up by I.E.D in Iraq. Lost one arm, both legs up to his hip, one of his hands and a lot of skin graphs. He always wore a shirt that said “I had a blast in Iraq”

Hey! They are ppl w a job, a job they CHOSE! These guys aren't draftees!
If you want to pay soldiers forever, why not also midnight shift convenience store workers who DO NOT have a troop and mega weapons to defend themselves but are high risk targets for maiming and being killed?
Get a clue. You are being schmoozed. Just another group looking for special dispensation. Not saying they shouldn't be thanked for their work but so should everyone else.

Whether you agree or disagree with the reasoning behind war. Any soldier should be taken care of after the fact.
The only fact is that wars are a tool To make money at the expense of peoples lives, specifically the ones innocently enough to convince it is for freedom. Instead of glorifying it maybe teaching kids why they shouldn't join is better.. I'd put money on that education rather than money to take care of damaged goods.

Mother lovin is a given. Are you trying to tell me that just bc a hero was a hero that that takes presidence over other (shit)
The thing that ticks me off about all of this is that they had to start a foundation to help vets like this - the government doesn't take care of us vets the way they should. Politicians should be forced to use the VA for all their medical needs and get the same pay as military enlisted, and then once out of office get nothing...
They don't need to get paid at all! They do favors for the large corporations and big tech, then get cushy board member jobs with insane pay after they leave office!
It’s so much worse than people know.
I agree. My stepdad was a marine in 2 years he had over 30 colonoscopies at Heinz va hospital by chicago. After 2 years of weekly trips 100 miles each way they had him in a wheelchair and as the elevator doors were closing the doctor stuck his hand in and the doors opened and the VA Dr said "Mr Danko, I'm sorry to tell you this but you have stage 4 colon cancer and need to make arrangements because you have less than a year to live." Then the VA doctor walked away. 2 years and over 30 colonoscopies and they didn't find it? Bull. My grandmother's oncologist said it was impossible to have that many colonoscopies and not catch it.

My father, Jack, was a medic in WW2. He was in a Signal Corp outfit and landed on the 2nd day at Omaha Beach and was also at the Battle of the Bulge. He saw a lot of misery and I didn't hear him complain. He was awarded two Bronze Stars and I never knew this until after his death. He was a good man and I miss him.
I bet his grandchildren love to hear stories about their amazibg grandpa. 💯❤️
It’s too bad you never knew this until after his death. Maybe the two of you could’ve bonded over it
So many veterans won’t speak of the experiences they went through in battle, not because they don’t want to or because they’re humble about it but because it’s just too painful to relive. Many of them had PTSD but didn’t even know because it was just called shellshock and remained misunderstood. Rehashing the events and speaking out about them would probably be too much to go through. That’s not to say they never think about the things that happened to them or the friends they lost, but voicing it is another level.
I have the greatest respect for all veterans no matter how good or bad their time was, but I have the most respect for the ones who can talk about things because it takes so much bravery to go through it and bring it up again.
Grandpa j didnt ever talk about his service. I didn't even know what the curio case full of medals and stars was until they gave him the 21 gun sendoff. He wanted, more than anything, to fly, but his balls must have been to big and his medic bag too heavy. Miss you papa j. Hope you're soaring up there.
Blessings & Prayers!!! :)
OMG, Justin Lascek was my roomate in college at GA Southern University. No Joke. We bonded over guitar hero, football and love of country music.

scoldingwhisper exactly. Not to take a thing away from this guy and his experiences, but those of us having political arguments back here may be doing so because we’re fucking tired of seeing people of this sort of moral fortitude and character dying for someone else’s idea of sound economics and politics. Maybe we’re tired of being a country that stands for inflicting wounds like this (on our own and on those in the countries we fight), while our politicians and Wall Street execs laugh their way to the banks. Maybe we sit in utter disbelieve that can spend trillions to send young men like this to an early grave, but we can’t help them after? Shit, we can’t even help our own here!
Some of the political squabbles here might help to prevent guys like this from getting their balls blown off or dying. You know, if the right people prevail.
Alex Baum Well fucking said, I couldn’t say it better if I tried my best. You’re probably gonna get hella unreasonable hate for it, but fuck it. Dying for politicians and rich people - fuck all that shit.
That's your perception, they aren't really fighting any real threat.. Americans have a point of view like these soldiers are defending your freedom lol. They aren't defending shit. They fight because some politicians have interests.. They die for nothing, but your public is fed all that bullshit and you guys think your soldiers are some heroes.. When your home is invaded then you fight and go to war. American politics isnt defending your freedom lol. Anyone can see that but an American. I mean no offense, these are facts. People who get hurt half a world away, it's their own fault. They are volunteers, for what? Cause they also believe they are defendinf American freedom lol. Iraq, Afghanistan would be better off without Americans as they have been for 3000 years and you would stikl sleep peaceful at night, cause Noone really gives a shit about killing you. The reason they will go out of their way to kill you at your own country, is because you invited theirs. That's about it.

Opioids are absolutely fucking brutal to kick. That in its self will cause serious depression, and I could even imagine losing your legs, balls, friends, getting divorced, and then the drug addiction. Fuck me this man is a beast!! He is inspiring to say the least
Dude methadone is the daddy of opioids! I was on for almost 10 years, kicking can make you suicidal for real. I thought I had reasons to stay on it, never mind, this guy is a beast. He describes the withdrawals perfectly.
Uncle Dutchy brother all these opioids to get off opioids are twice as bad. I was give a Butrans patch for 2 years, to help with pain. Come to find out it was a suboxone patch. For over 2 weeks I was shaking, and 2 years later I haven’t fully recovered. At this point I don’t think I will ever recover
The worst thing I found kicking opioids, was sobriety. My brain was like "Jesus Christ, normality sucks. Let's get high again."
The longer you kick, the better it gets. Also, you're really supposed to ween yourself when In a methadone program (in my country, anyway). They taper you down so the withdrawal isn't as harsh, albeit over a longer time.
Of course, half of the people on the done just end up scoring H or whatever anyway, and use the done as just another source.
It's pretty screwed up. Neurologically speaking it takes ages for the brain to "repair".

As a former combat soldier I really appreciate You having vets on to tell the story of what war really… We’re all eager to get in the fight till you see your first brother die & you can’t explain that feeling… Really appreciateJoe doing these shows your the best brother!!!
It’s amazing how people like him can maintain a positive outlook on life after experiencing that kind of trauma. Ive felt like giving up after going through far less.

Nothing is more impressive and rewarding than to visit a VA hospital and sit with a veteran just to have a chat.
I spent every day for 7 years visiting my sweetheart at the Long Beach VA. He was in the Spinal Cord section of the hospital.
I’d see a vet sitting alone and shoot them a little smile. They would light up and before long we’d become friends.
Everyone in the vicinity of a VA hospital should give it a try. Be a friend and an encourager. Show your love and gratitude.
I was smashed up in a car crash, i'll take my eleven back surgeries plus other stuff to what he has gone through. The mental strength is simply amazing, then throw in his empathy for his fellow soldiers, i tip my hat to him, what a wonderful person !
Yea, it immediately puts your "bad" days into perspective. It's unimaginable what this guy has endured and how he can still keep a positive attitude. I would not be able to do it.
Neurolicious I know right,I lost internet connection for like 25 seconds and I thought to myself,what’s the point in living
Sorry to hear about your constant pain brother
@Neurolicious bro i have 2 cats and id cry my whole soul if id lost them. Sucks that we have to send people like him to war only for some oil. Insane
I just recently had a spinal fusion the other day, and here I am thinking I’m in pain. Boy oh boy am I wrong. Can’t imagine what pain this man must have felt. God bless him.

I worked with a guy that after we retired and he died of a heart attack I found out that during Vietnam he was a green beret and actually taught hand to hand combat. He never let me know , he did have some issues about his past , he had a shrink and I noticed his wife was a little nervous talking about things ,God bless these guys.

gotta say.....anything to let anyone talk
Methadone is oil based and gets into a persons bones, most difficult to get off… period.
My great grandpa was at pearl harbour and survived and he got took out by a heart attack after the war i cant remember what year it was but im pretty sure my oldest uncle was just a baby he was dead way before i was born i love all the vets the same but its world war two and in Vietnam that always get me choked up they always gives me choked up now world war II gives me choked up for the obvious reasons and Vietnam just gets me choked up because people treated our Vietnam vets wrong really wrong
But i have respect for all our veterans an i thank them all for when we became a country when we had the civil war an every war after that everyone thats fought for this country i thank an i am grateful

This is a truly incredible human being. The fact that whenever his injuries are brought up, he handles it with class and respect.

My father was a WWll vet served three years in Europe.he went over he was barely 19.I have three buddies that served in Vietnam.we are all 70 years plus now.the stories are horrendous of what they went thru and the things they saw.I have pictures from dad.how they had the mind to record this is another story.When he came home he couldn’t stand being there.he took off into rural British Columbia ,Canada.The toll that they paid mentally is incredible.in those days they didn’t have ptsd treatment or the drugs for pain that they have now.the government that they offered their lives for largely puts them out to pasture so to speak.They are tossed aside like yesterdays garbage.absolutely shocking what these brave and courageous men and women have to endure in war…….and in peace at home.
I’m sorry that happened to your family sir, know that the generations taking the torch are trying to end indiscriminate wars to prevent our vets from experiencing this again.

Are you any relation to Yukon Cornelius?
Perspective is important in both ways. In comparison to someone else your situation can look worse or better. However, it is good to look at your situation based on your own life. A self driven perspective helps you realize that compared to what you have lived through is why "this" is hard or easy compared to your experience. Going from rich to poor is felt more than starting poor and not progressing. The rich to poor commits suicide. The poor to poor smiles

Lost it when he said he was explaining to his squad how to patch up his legs after they were blown off. You are a true hero my man.
I cannot fathom how fucking insane that would be! And to be able in such (i use this word loosely) calm state after having your legs blown and being able to be like "right cut here, stitch there".
Reminds me somewhat of the doctor in the artic who had remove his appendix himself with just a mirror.
Green Baret: I got my legs and balls blown off.
Joe: So how 'bout them drugs?
Man, I don't even know how I would reply to that. I'd probaly talk about the drugs too.
What do people expect? So tell us about yer balls.
He signed up knowing he could get his shit blown off. Who talks about their day job?
@@BigDaddyTCG everybody talks about their job
And that's The Truth
its crazy how the love of his life left him and a man died right infront of him and he describes it as a rough day it’s puts in perspective how much they go through and how we could never handle that
He then went on to describe the time as "it was a pretty shitty year" just so matter of factly and so mildly. He is truly one of the good guys. I am a veteran and used to work for the VA and have been around a hell of a lot of veterans and there are typically two kinds. You've got the whiny, entitled sonsofbitches who think that the world owes them everything for serving a lousy 4 year hitch and never hearing a shot fired in anger and probably didn't even leave the States or if they did it was to a decent allied country and they pushed a broom or some shit like that all day. Then you've got the guys like Justin who not only see combat but experience and suffer through all kinds of hell and sum it up with just "it was a pretty shitty year." God bless him. That's a real man and a real American hero right there but I bet you my last dollar that he would deny that.
It truly puts everything in perspective. Most people are trying to figure put how to claim victimhood status for attention. And then there's this mam. Who's a true victim on so many levels and he sweeps it away suffering away like it's crumbs. Then in hard core heroic fashion, all he want to do is help the families of his fallen Brothers. He is a real man and an extreme hero.
I thank him for be an incredible inspiration!
@@guygrimmett1764 You're right. Hearing this man's story I was immediately reminded of the kind of narcissitic, self-congratulatory circlejerking I now so often see amongst groups of Gen Zs and younger Millennials all telling each other how stunning and brave they are for doing absolutely f*ck all.
I have a good friend who's former SBS and suffers with PTSD quite badly. He's hardly talked about what he experienced although the few things he's hinted at tell me enough. One of the rare times I've really seen him get angry was when we were at a party and some whiny woke soyboy who's never even been in cubs let alone the military started telling everyone how he had PTSD because he was once beaten up for being left-wing (which I highly doubt even happened judging by how unheard of that is plus his refusal to give any details of his story).
There are now tens of millions of whining crying victims who are a victim of nothing but their own delusions, yet they get far more attention and benefits than guys like this green beret who actually deserve to never have to worry about anything again for the rest of their lives.
@@bergeracvandamme what do they get or claim, there doing wat evey generation does thinking there taking over and what they say is the way it is and to me all this woke stuff is just the finished product thats almost ready and has been chipped and chopped over the years, take this, I'm 36 I never grew up hating people for sexuality or colour creed ect, but that was down to my mum and step dad, I'm sure kids at my school knew they were gay, but there was no way my school could as a whole handled that kind of stigma, they dident handle bullying in general very well, but wat I've been slowly noticing is the popular sporty guy can't beat up the gay/camp guy wen the girl who he fancies is best friends with the gay guy I remember early 2000s it being joked about in American sitcoms,. "every girl wanted a gay best bud to go with her large not so attractive friend, back then it was just awkward and almost a joke, now I think it's all good a kids can hopefully be who they want to be and not spend a childhood locked in there head and the only time they can be themselves is alone or they get found out and bullied, so you can still be the person u once shouted at the man or parents or teachers u would never become, I shall be strolling happily listening to wu tang or oasis happy that there's more love than hate wen it comes to kids being different, ps until the next woke lot come and are more woke than this lol lol🤭🤭

This guy has a true warriors ethos. He’s been thru unimaginable hell and is undoubtedly still conquering demons like depression and pain but he has chosen to continue to be a warrior in new and different ways for different kinds of battles. The best thing a soldier who is fighting PTSD can do is to find that new thing to fight for or fight against. Loss of purpose is what kills soldiers after the war.
