Thank you A thousand years from now, Leonidas declared, two thousand, three thousand years hence, men a hundred generations yet unborn may for their private purposes make journey to our country. They will come, scholars perhaps, or travelers from beyond the sea, prompted by curiosity regarding the past or appetite for knowledge of the ancients. They will peer out across our plain and probe among the stone and rubble of our nation. What will they learn of us? Their shovels will unearth neither brilliant palaces nor temples; their picks will prise forth no everlasting architecture or art. What will remain of the Spartans? Not monuments of marble or bronze, but this, what we do here today.” Out beyond the Narrows the enemy trumpets sounded. Clearly now could be seen the vanguard of the Persians and the chariots and armored convoys of their King. "Now eat a good breakfast, men. For we’ll all be sharing dinner in hell. -Spartan King Leonidas #GlobalRecon #Democratia #FieldCraftLLC #RoninTactics #Spartans #Sparta #Ancients #AncientGreeks #Warriors #Thermopylae #300 #SpecialForces #ForceMultiplier @brojaq @nomad_viking @theveteransproject @altern8rv @tkolczaktvp @ronintactics

Below is an excerpt from the latest podcast episode of an interview conducted by John Hendricks the show’s host, and Chuck Ritter a long time Special Forces veteran. Chuck Ritter: We made the decision to go around the corner and grab this guy without air support because we thought the enemy was going to retrieve the casualty. A big gun fight actually ensued. I told my medic to stay in this compound, and be ready to receive this casualty, and I’ll be right back with him not expecting myself to be a casualty. When we turned the corner there were two enemy personnel charging our position. We took care of them. There were two machine gun positions within 25 meters, so we silenced one of them, and silenced the other one temporarily. I was pretty much standing on top of the casualty trying to drag him around the corner. The machine gun switched over to me, a round hit me right leg and knocked me forward. Another round hit my right scapula and rode down my back, and one round grazed through my right butt cheek. I fell in a little ditch, and the rest of the rounds went around me. As he was reloading I popped up in my head I was going to re engage, but my arm wouldn’t work. John: So you were medevac’d out? Chuck Ritter: Yes. We deemed that the firefight was so bad that the helicopter would get shot down. So they had to fight for about an hour and a half going street to street to clear a space for the helicopter to come in. The team stayed on the ground for another 12 hours, and had a hellacious firefight, and at one point my teammate told me the Afghan company commander told him we can’t get out, and we’re going to die here. #GlobalReconPodcast #FieldCraftLLC #GlobalRecon #SpecialForces #GreenBerets #NorthAmericanRescue #Afghanistan #GunFighters #War #Warriors #DOL @sofsurvivor @ronintactics @sofrunner @defiant_llc

The Associated Press later identified the casualty as Special Warfare Operator (SEAL) 1st Class Charlie Keating IV. From all of us at Global Recon, and Field Craft we want to extend our condolences to the Keating family during this difficult time. Fair winds, and Following Sea’s Below is an excerpt from the episode from Special Forces operator Chuck Ritter: “In the video you see me coming around the corner shot. So basically we under estimated the enemy force present in the area. Our partners were the Afghan Commando’s, and we had very few Americans on the ground. We came in at night, and it was clear all night. Then in the morning right when the sun came up the enemy actually closed to within 5 to 10 meters of our battle positions, and started throwing hand grenade’s over the wall, and were really lighting us up. So we were going out trying to push these guys back off our perimeter. The fact that the terrain was very maze like allowed them the freedom of maneuverability to move on us. Aerial imagery, and everything else didn’t paint the right picture on the ground. An overhead drone spotted an ambush, and the operator was telling us that there was an enemy ambush set up a couple hundred meters away. We were trying to flank that ambush, but in reality the ambush was right there. We turned the corner, an Afghan Commando got shot took a round to the leg, and it blew off some fingers. A good majority of the rest of the Afghan Commando’s ran away. It was me, my medic, and EOD guy. All of the fast movers moved off station, so the only thing I had overhead was Apache’s. So I started working fire to provide cover for this casualty.” #GlobalReconPodcast #FieldCraftLLC #GlobalRecon #SpecialForces #NavySEALs #ChuckKeating #ISIS #RIP #Iraq #Leadership #AfghanistanCombatStories #NorthAmericanRescue #PurpleHeart @sofsurvivor @northamericanrescue @sofrunner

We’re too few; I don’t have a chance, and I know it. Now there’s a realization. When we’re not on the ground, training, or in the club, I hate the eternal waiting around. I get anxious. I begin to think too much and that’s when the fear begins to creep in for me. I don’t sleep well. If we’re back in camp more than a week I begin to have bad dreams, talk in my sleep and drink more than I should. But, when we come back from a mission after making enemy contact I sleep like a baby. It’s the waiting around. It’s better to just come back, take a short rest, reload, and go right back out. I think I know why men go out and take such long chances and pull off unbelievable wild feats of heroism. No training, none of the duty, honor, and country stuff makes us do what we do on our own accord. I know now what a brave man is. I know now how men laugh at death and welcome it. It takes a brave man to even experience real fear. A coward can’t last long enough at the job to get to that stage. - Lynne Black RT (Recon Team) Alabama Special Forces MACV-SOG 1968 Vietnam @sofsurvivor @sofrunner @jseconomos #GlobalRecon #Vietnam #MACVSOG #SF #DOL #GreenBerets #FieldCraftLLC #GlobalReconPodcast #GentlePropositions
