Ep 161: AFSOC DAGRE Part II With Chase and Raul!!! 

Cool! I’m Prior AD as a Raven out of Hickam AFB and DAGRE out of Cannon AFB. 08-14 currently 19D and 11B out of the Oklahoma Army National Guard. Went through phase 1 and 2 of Army OCS. Good times 😎🇺🇸

I am a Former Security Policeman, back when the career field was divided into Law Enforcement and Security ...I was a Security Specialist 6 years Active/9 years Air National Guard. I was stationed at Dyess AFB for 3 years in the Strategic Air Command..we had a squadron of B52D's..4 Nuclear uploaded on alert at all times. As an A1C I was a Sentry on uploaded B-52's or on a Boundary. I was a ART/SRT member and also a Fire Team member in a Armored Vehicle (we had 6 Fire Teams on Alert at all times).When I made Senior Airman (Below the zone). We also had 3 squadron's of C-130's. I did Fly Away Security. We trained 4 times a year in Air Base Ground Defense at Ft. Hood Army Base against the US Army 7th Calvary Scouts. I was on one of the first EST's..Emergency Service Team's (SWAT) in the Air Force. I got to attend the FBI SWAT School and we got to put on EST training demonstrations along with the Combat Control Team across the street from Security Control. (We loaded on 2 C 130's with a Combat Control Team climbed to 20,000 ft., the CCT did a halo jump. After deploying the CCT the 130's spiraled down and did an Assault landing on a dirt strip. We deployed in our Armored vehicles out the back of the C130's and took the objective, reloaded with the nuclear weapon we recovered from the “Terrorists” and did a Assault takeoff)!! I was stationed for 1 year in Turkey at a Secret MUNSS site. As a SGT...I was the NCOIC of Arms and Equipment for the Security detachment and also the Team Leader for the RRT ( Recapture and Recovery Team) a joint Turkish - American Anti-terrorist Team. When I rotated back to the World, I was assigned for 2 years at Langley AFB, VA to Headquarters Tactical Air Command. The unit I was in is the Tactical Air Command Guard...we were the Security for the CINCTAC (Commander and Chief Tactical Air Command..4 Star General). and I was a Flight Chief (SSGT) for Bravo Flight. During my time in the Alabama Air National Guard I got to go to "Sliver Flag Alpha" in Indian Springs, NV, the USAF SP Desert Warfare and Survival School. I did a lot of different things in the Security Police Field....AND LOVED EVERY MINUTE... except for the time I spent in a Turkish Military Prison..but that is another story! Some times I wish I had stayed in the Air Force........but I had a good career (25 years) as a State Trooper SWAT Sniper. If I had stayed in I would have would have been a Raven for sure.

My MTI at BMT was a Ranger Raven got pulled to restand up the AF Ranger Assesment program. Good guy.

Had an instructor in Raven school that was DAGRE as well. Badass dude! Got my eyes set on DAGRE next for sure.

Currently Security Forces and still finding my path in the career, came in wanting to do dagre and it is a bit hard to find the slots but finding people in Dagre online or in person wasnt a challenge and ive got to pick their brain. They said best decision theyve made in their career in "sf" to go Dagre.

About to go into Security Forces soon; have to complete basic first, tho; wish me luck

From 1990 to 1993 i was the sole usaf security police instructor teaching tactics, weapons, escape and evasion to the 3rd combat communications group "the 3rd herd" (best in the air force). 4 other instructors with me: former tacp that taught combat first aid, radio man that taught survival, motor pool sgt taught vehicles and a desaster prepardness guy. Best job i ever had. They were first into desert shield/desert storm, south american drug war, haiti and serijevo. "Any time, any where." Even taught the oregon, washington and hawaiian air guard. Tinker afb, ok. 1990-93.😂🎉❤

great video as always thank you Ones Ready team for all of your hard work

The boys! 🤘🏽⚔️

Little disappointing to hear the likelihood of being apart of DAGRE, would love to be apart of their team.

This isn't the same Raul from Forward Observations Group (FOG) right? I thought he was a GB 🇺🇲💪🏽🎯

I'm 34 in great shape getting ready to join in, what are the optics with the airforce to allow me to join in the DAGRE?

Does Raul have contact info, or POC for joining the PA Air Guard DAGRE section. I’m Prior active currently in the Air Guard.

Aponte! I believe we went to tech ALS together.

DAGRE: Deployed Aircraft Ground Response Element. REAPER: Reconnaissance Expert, Airborne Pathfinder, Emergency Rescue. STAR: Special Tactics Advanced Recon.

I am very interested in RAVEN. Yall should make a podcast with them

Really great stuff!

Still working on getting my green card to join the AF!

Twelve 249s? Get some.

Hi Ones Ready. I don't know if you have done so already, but it would be great if maybe you can talk to someone who worked in AFSOC EOD, 28th EOD Company, TACPs from the 17th Special Tactics Squadrons, or SWCCs who worked in DEVGRU's Gray Squadron (if it doesn't violate OPSEC).

After you get ur first station when an what rank do you need to be for dangre

Is 32 too old to try out for cct???

What is the officer pipeline like for the air guard? I’m in the army as an 11B and thinking of switching too the air guard.

Before you were exposed to everything and obstacles how did you deal with the fear and anxiety in your heart?

Is there dagre in the reserves

What age can you join green berets

DAGRE is so useless

I'm still Confused what's the difference between DAGRE & Raven. First time that I've heard of this. And it's as hard to get as a Sniper Slot?
