Woman’s Self Defense Weekly: The Handgun Grab

Last week we talked about a woman’s best friend being one of the safest tools in the box for woman looking at an edge when it comes to self-defense. This week we look at the “What if” scenario. What if you are on a train and someone pulls a gun? Are you going to stand […]

Polish GROM

You asked for it, and you got it. Here’s a couple good videos we pulled on GROM missions. If you’ve read Chris Kyle’s American Sniper then you know that the SEALs and others worked extensively with the GROM.  After one mission with the GROM Chris started integrating into their assault train on HVT hits.  Good […]

Free Flight Base Jump SOFREP Style…

One of the things I miss most about active duty is hucking myself off the ramp of a C-130 at 18,000 feet.  The warm smell of plane fuel in the nostrils gives me goose bumps just thinking about it.  Skydiving is a great sport, but base jumping and what you see in this video have […]

Apache Crash: When Density Altitude and Ego Collide

I’ve been in a lot of Helos as a SEAL and Search & Rescue Crewchief (AW) in H60F & H’s, and this is a prime example of not having situational awareness to realize the effects of density altitude (thin air) and even worse– putting peoples lives at risk. I’m a 500 hour instrument rated pilot […]

The Lethality of the Vehicle Borne IED

This is a great example of the lethality of the vehicle borne IED. This convoy was ambushed as evidence by the following hail of gun fire.  Also on display is the courage of the allied SOF Warfighter, and his commitment to go into harms way, again and again and again. For women who say  “Men […]

The RESCO Red Circle Project

My friend, bad ass watch maker, founder of RESCO and former Navy SEAL Teammate Rob and I are making a watch…..only 215 (My BUD/S Class #). It’s nice doing cool things with your friends. More to follow. Brandon

Sunday Humor: When Roly Polys Strike Fear into the Hearts & Minds of Navy SEALs!

The following is a true story but some names have been changed to protect the ego and reputation of one Navy SEAL in particular.  I’ll just call him “Don” (From SEAL TEAM FIVE). The high-pitched screaming woke me up from a dead man’s sleep.  “There’s a fucking bug in my ear!” the Don yelled. “AAAAAHHHHH!”  […]

Honoring Navy SEAL Michael Murphy this St. Patrick’s Day

Photo is of Mike’s new ship, the DDG 112 from SEALofHonor.com  SOFREP supports One Team, One Fight, but I wanted to honor a SEAL brother today and this post was inspired by Jeff Bearuline’s post in the private FB room 5326 (SEAL code). So I am sipping a Guinness myself as I reflect on personal […]

Stuff Navy SEALs Say (2)

Well what can I say? Here are a few more (out of thousands…) pearls of wisdom handed down from Frogman to Frogman since the 50’s. “I been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king! I likes pirate best.” Teams-n-Shit. Special Thanks to the pipe hitters in the 5326 Forum […]

This is an excellent video that displays the unique skill set that only AFSOC brings to the table. You can tell that the guys on the ground are stressed and under heavy fire; This is a true testament to the JTAC training and fortitude of this particular Operator who holds it all together under enemy […]

GB TV’s Real News From The Blaze Interview w/Brandon

Here’s my pirated segment that I shot with my iPhone (yes, that’s a Magpul iPhone case). If I looked pissed off during the segment it was because the guy in the studio was late and still prepping his lights and cameras 30 seconds from go time! Always nice to work with professionals who show up […]
