America’s Secret History of Elite Warfighters
In this video we break down the wild, unconventional, and often unbelievable origin story of America’s elite special operations forces. From Rogers’ Rangers in the colonial wilderness to the OSS in World War II, to the birth of the Green Berets, SEALs, Rangers, and modern SOCOM, this is the real lineage of the warriors who run their limits into the red and keep going. We cover how America’s earliest fighters learned stealth, speed, and reconnaissance from Native Americans, how World War II spawned the OSS and the Jedburgh teams, and how Cold War demands shaped the Green Berets under President Kennedy. From there we follow the evolution into the modern era including Delta Force, SEAL Team 6, Air Force Special Tactics, Marine Raiders, and the operators who took the fight to America’s enemies after 9/11. At the core of all of it is the same truth: hardware matters, but people matter more. The mindset, the pressure, the relentless adaptation, and the willingness to step into the unknown are what define US Special Operations. 0:00 Intro 1:05 Rogers' Rangers 2:30 The Wild West and WWI 3:30 WIld Bill The Man at the Helm 7:10 Operation Jedburgh 9:57 Founding of Special Forces 14:15 President Kennedy and Special Forces 16:38 Andy Stumpf and the Creation of SoF 19:13 US SOCOM is Born 21:52 SoF Present Day and Beyond Learn more about why Black Rifle Coffee Company is America's Coffee: http://brcc.coffee/2rgH6vu Check us out on social media: Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/blackriflecoffee Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/blackriflecoffeeco LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/6978821 X: https://x.com/blckriflecoffee Did you know that we are on Amazon? http://amzn.to/2oFoBek

He Survived the Night That Changed Special Forces Forever
During the Vietnam War, a small group of American soldiers fought a hidden war that most of the world never knew existed. These men were part of MACV-SOG, an elite Special Forces unit that carried out secret missions deep behind enemy lines, often across borders they were never supposed to cross. In this exclusive interview, Patrick Watkins, a Green Beret who served with MACV-SOG, shares his firsthand account of life in that shadow war. He recounts the night his base was struck by a massive sapper attack, a brutal assault by North Vietnamese commandos who came wearing white headbands marked in their own blood, determined not to return alive. That attack on Forward Operating Base Four became the deadliest day in U.S. Army Special Forces history. Seventeen Green Berets were killed, and countless others were wounded. Watkins describes the courage, the loss, and the unbreakable brotherhood that defined those who served in the most secretive unit of the Vietnam War. For his actions, SSG Pat Watkins was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. We’re grateful that he took the time to sit down and share his story. If you want more history about MACV-SOG, make sure to watch this next: MACV-SOG: Fighting the Brutal SECRET WAR in Vietnam - https://youtu.be/wZvxBleOBxo https://www.coffeeordie.com/article/macv-sog-franklin-miller Learn more about why Black Rifle Coffee Company is America's Coffee: http://brcc.coffee/2rgH6vu Check us out on social media: Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/blackriflecoffee Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/blackriflecoffeeco LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/6978821 Twitter: https://twitter.com/blckriflecoffee Did you know that we are on Amazon? http://amzn.to/2oFoBek #SpecialForces #Army #BlackRifleCoffee

How the Marine Corps made Travis Pastrana a motorsports icon
Travis Pastrana has broken more bones than he can count, and somehow he’s still smiling. Behind every crash and comeback is a story built on discipline, grit, and a proud family tradition of military service. Growing up in a Marine Corps household, Travis learned what it means to earn everything you get. His father, Robert Pastrana, served in the United States Marines, and that foundation of hard work and sacrifice shaped Travis from day one. It’s the reason he keeps pushing, keeps getting back up, and keeps redefining what’s possible in motorsports. This new BRCC PRESENTS: documentary tells the story behind the legend. It’s about the family values that shaped him, the broken bones that couldn’t stop him, and the mindset that connects him to the veterans and service members who inspire him every day.

Larry Perino | Never Leave a Fallen Comrade: A Ranger Platoon Leader's Account of Task Force Ranger
A Ranger platoon leader recounts the sudden shift from training to chaos after the “boom” — helicopters struck, smoke and gunfire, and a race through Mogadishu to extract teammates. The episode traces Colonel Larry Perino's (then Lieutenant) path from West Point and Ranger training to leading a platoon on the ground during Task Force Ranger in Somalia, describing fast‑rope assaults, ambushes, downed aircraft, and the desperate vehicle and foot exfil under heavy fire. He reflects on the losses, survivor’s guilt, the duty to remember fallen comrades, and how the experience shaped leadership and care for soldiers afterward. _______________ MENTORS4MIL SHOW LINKS: SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@Mentors4mil Support the Show: https://www.patreon.com/Mentors4mil Listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mentors-for-military-podcast/id1072421783 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3w4RiZBxBS8EDy6cuOlbUl Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mentors4mil Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Mentors4Mil/ Follow on X: https://www.twitter.com/mentors4mil Mentors4mil Website: https://www.mentorsformilitary.com #TaskForceRanger #blackhawkdown #LarryPerino #75thrangerregiment #mentors4mil #mentorsformilitary For sales or sponsorship contact info@mentorsformilitary.com 00:00 Intro 12:09 West Point: The Gloom Period 15:28 The Path to Ranger Regiment 20:23 The Call to Action 27:56 The Calm Before the Storm 33:28 The Formation of Task Force Ranger 38:24 The Buildup to Conflict 45:39 The Reality of War 56:47 Mission Planning 1:00:26 Assault on the Target 1:11:07 Chaos Unleashed 1:17:14 The Fight for Survival 1:36:16 Waiting for the Rescue 1:50:40 Reflections on Trauma 1:55:57 The Road to Recovery Visit our Amazon page to purchase some of the items we use in our studio, or books from our guests. https://www.amazon.com/shop/mentors4milpodcast As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

Daughter of Black Hawk Down Army Ranger First Sergeant: Preserving 1SG Glenn Harris’s Legacy
Part One of a 3-Part Series for 2025 as we approach the anniversary of Operation Gothic Serpent - "Black Hawk Down" In this episode, Tara Harris, daughter of First Sergeant Glenn Harris, talks about her father and all of the men who served with him as part of Operation Gothic Serpent in Mogadishu, that became known as The Battle of Black Hawk Down based on the movie. Today, Tara gathers photos, interviews, and archives to preserve the stories of her father, but also of all of B Company, 3rd Ranger Battalion before and after Operation Gothic Serpent, Somalia — including the Somalia deployment, the training and daily lives of Rangers of that period, and life then and now at the B Company 3/75 day room. She digitizes records and connects veterans and families so the Rangers’ experiences and legacies from Task Force Ranger are remembered and shared. If you or someone you know has 75th Ranger Regiment photos, especially those from Mogadishu, email Tara at tharris75thrgrhistory@gmail.com _______________ Visit our Amazon page to purchase some of the items we use in our studio, or books from our guests. https://www.amazon.com/shop/mentors4milpodcast As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

Charting a (Running) Path to Help Fellow Veterans
Source: https://www.podbean.com/eau/pb-4iigz-19b1390 As LTC Mike Erwin retired from active duty in 2010, he discovered a large number of fellow veterans who were longing for a community. And so, eager to provide a solution, he created Team Red, White & Blue (TeamRWB) to fill that void. Over the last fifteen years, this organization has put together over fifteen thousand events—everything from fun runs to chess meets—and has connected over a quarter-million veterans. Hosts LTG (Ret.) Leslie C. Smith and SMA (Ret.) Dan Dailey sit down with LTC (Ret.) Erwin, as well as TeamRWB’s incoming Executive Director, COL (Ret.)

10 Genius Ways to Use Chapter 35 as a Military Family
Chapter 35 is one of the most valuable but overlooked education benefits for military families. In this video I break down exactly how survivors and dependents can use Chapter 35 to get paid every month while going to school. This includes college, trade schools, apprenticeships, certifications, and other VA approved programs. You will learn who qualifies, how to apply, how long benefits last, how much money you can receive, and how to stack Chapter 35 with state programs, Pell Grants, scholarships, and housing benefits. I also cover the Fry Scholarship and when it may be a better option for children of service members who died in the line of duty. If you or someone you know is a dependent of a disabled, deceased, MIA, or POW veteran, this information can change lives. These benefits can help you focus on school without needing a full time job to survive.

Most Veterans Don’t Realize Chapter 31 Does All This
Chapter 31 VR&E is one of the most powerful benefits veterans qualify for, but most people never get a straight answer on what it actually covers. In this video I break down how the program works, who qualifies, what it pays for, and how to get the most out of it. I cover: • Career counseling and evaluation • Education, certifications, and technical training • Tools, equipment, and supplies • Apprenticeships and on the job training • Monthly subsistence allowance • Disability accommodations and independent living support • How to apply and what to expect in the process • Pro tips to maximize your benefits If you have a service connected rating and you are unsure of your next career move, VR&E can pay for school, tools, equipment, exam fees, and even help place you in a new job. This program is built to set you up for success after service. Tell me in the comments if you have used Chapter 31 and what it helped you accomplish. Your experience can help other veterans get what they have earned. #veterans #vabenefits #militarylife Get a FREE copy of my book, and get connected to the Military Millionaire community on all of your favorite platforms: https://www.frommilitarytomillionaire.com/free-book - 75k+ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/militarymillionaire/ Follow on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/frommilitarytomillionaire/ Website: https://www.frommilitarytomillionaire.com/ - My name is David Pere.

The Military Job Everyone Laughs At... Until They See Where It Leads
One of my subscribers asked if he should become a cook in the military… and the comment section lit him up. People treat it like a joke, like it's some kind of punishment. But here's what they don’t tell you. In this video, I break down what it's actually like to be a military cook. Not just the long hours or chow hall shifts, but the surprising doors it opens. From cooking for top-ranking generals to flying on private jets, there’s a side to this job most service members never hear about. Thinking of joining? Or already in and stuck with an MOS people mock? You might want to watch this before you write it off.
