Occasionally I read something that strikes a nerve, and inspires me to write. This happened to me on my way back from Poland this Veterans Day. I grabbed the International New York Times in Frankfurt International as I boarded my flight back home, and read an article that made no sense to me. Phillip Carter […]
At least CBS has admitted the error, and I respect the network for this. That said, Jack and I have spoken to a senior producer in the past who wanted us to spoon feed them on Benghazi. When we did they essentially checked out, and we never heard back. One phone call to us, and […]
I’ve been on the ground for three days in Poland with Drago. We’re visiting with friends, discussing some business with the Polish company Helikon, and at the tail end of this week we’ve been helping some GROM friends teach a class with the training company “DEFENDU” in Poznan. Training outside of Poznan Wroclaw at night […]
Again, the Naval Special Warfare (NSW) community finds itself in the spotlight because of recent policy passed down from senior leadership to remove the “Navy Jack” patch from their uniforms. When I was with SEAL Team ECHO in 2001, prior to pushing forward into Afghanistan, we had a brief stop in Kuwait and participated in […]
Hi Everyone, We are planning the party in Vegas right before the annual SHOT show. I need a good head count so I can secure a location that matches the number of people attending. Please RSVP via the comment sections of this post, and pass the word to others. I’ll shut down the RSVP/comment section next […]
One of our SOFREP readers passed this on to me via Facebook. Note: I haven’t personally verified John Spence’s biography with but he seems pretty legit, and it’s a great read. Enjoy. Brandon OSS to First Frogman: John Spence I was born in 1918 in Centerville, Tennessee. My dad was the local sheriff so I […]
I came across the poem below when a friend and former SEAL teammate shared it with me last week. Dave, and I were talking about our past experiences in the Navy, and SEAL Teams, and then the conversation turned towards the small percentage in our community who let themselves be consumed by professional jealously and […]
Many have seen this before but it’s worth another look. I recently wrote a piece about this very same issue that Business Insider picked up. Are we becoming more conventional? You decide…
The following is an interview I conducted with former teammate Chris Sajnog. Chris and I worked briefly at the sniper course together, it was great to catch up with him again as we haven’t spoken in years, other than through our correspondence as fellow board members of the Navy SEALs Fund. BRANDON: You and […]
The VA (Dept. of Veterans Affairs) is abandoning its veterans that need help the most. Their 2014 Budget request is $152.7 billion. In 2011, the Department was investigated for fraud, waste, and abuse. The outcome of this investigation was damning. Eric K. Shinseki heads up the Department and, surprisingly, still remains in charge. If the VA was a […]
Hi everyone, I was going over the numbers with the guys, and quickly realized that, with your help, we’ve helped raise well over $100,000 this year for various Special Operations charitable causes. Most recently was Peter Nealen and Jack Murphy’s call to action to support the Ranger families during the government shutdown. We couldn’t have done […]
Full disclosure: My friend runs Escape the Wolf, and they’re a sponsor of ours but they didn’t pay for me to write this. I’m writing about their new App because it’s really fucking cool. I just downloaded Wolf’s “Photo Trap” this weekend, and have already detected my girlfriend messing with stuff she shouldn’t. The App […]
