He was a humble and soft spoken man. It made me proud that a man of Hispanic heritage was featured so prominately. RIP MSgt. Benavidez.

Toughness is a mindset. My dad wrecked a 4 wheeler, breaking his back, but didn’t realize it. He missed one day of work and returned the next day. It was years later when he found out he had 4 fractured vertebrae in his back. He found out because he was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. The Doc gave him a couple months to live. He lived 12 years, dying peacefully in his sleep.

Regarding Audie Murphy, something that TFE didn't mention was that he's almost singlehandedly responsible for PTSD being taken seriously as an actual disease. After the war, he was open about his struggles with the disease and it's not exactly easy to call the most decorated soldier in US history somebody who is just weak and couldn't handle the realities of war which was the prevailing thought at the time.

I had the honor of meeting Benavidez about 6 months before he passed. He did a LOT of motivational speech touring in his later years, and he happened to come down to Panama for the final rotation of the Jungle Ops course before we gave the land back to the Panamanians, and my unit was the last unit to go through. He was the most charismatic man I think I've ever met. And yeah, a solid handful of US military bases that had previously been named after people in the Confederacy in the US Civil War were renamed a couple of years ago. No more Ft. Bragg and Ft. Benning.

Audie is from north Texas and is the most decorated soldier in US history. Our families knew each other, being sharecroppers from Hunt County. My uncle, who served in the ETO commanding a tank as a SSgt, said Audie ‘short & scrawny.’ The one thing they (& my brother and I) did was grow up hunting, to put food on the table. I KNOW that’s where Audie learned to be so deadly with a rifle. That said, did he have special dungarees made to hold his GIANT BALLS? He was a great patriot who sadly suffered from PTSD, after the war which led to him becoming an alcoholic. 🇺🇸 I am proud that Benavides and Murphy are Texans!!

I met Roy Benavides when I was young boy. My mon picked him up from the airport in Kansas City. He was giving a speech at a Latinos Unidos event. She brought him to our house and we had dinner together. I cooked. He was the greatest person I ever met. Even as a child, I knew this was the greatest honor in my life. He was a kind and wonderful man. El Gordo Tio. My grandfather died in Vietnam. He was also a boxer. Golden Gloves. He sang jazz at clubs and on the radio 📻 His parents came to Kansas City from Mexico, because my great-grandfather killed a man he wasn't supposed to. He used to ride with Pancho Villa, but Pancho put a hit on him. Anyway. He was kind and wonderful. I read his book back then, and he was everything I imagined.

Audie Murphy was something else. He was rejected from the marines because of his height and weight (which was also used as a reference to the captain America comics). Saw you did a bit of Sabaton reactions back then, you should give "To Hell and back" a listen on their history channel it gives a brief story on Audie's life. Audie is also one of my role models and is one of the people that inspired me join, currently in the enlistment process. The other person was my Grandfather's brother who died in the Defense of Philippines and was a member of the Philippine Scouts.

“For those of us who have fought for it, life has a special flavor” This speaks to me on an existential level. You will never appreciate the gift of life greater than when it is almost taken from you. The same rule applies to freedom, you will never appreciate freedom enough until it is taken from you. People yearning for the old days, when things were better, when we all had more freedom. We didn’t know back then to appreciate what we had, and now here we are wishing we had it back. I wonder how many soldiers thought the same thing before they lost their lives in battle.

Even the best neurologists can't explain some of the things that go on with the brain. A singular smell can bring back a childhood memory long forgotten. A particular song can pull an elderly person from the depths of dementia for a short while. There was a woman who suffered a stroke that made her almost a vegetable mentally. Over years of therapy she recovered to be almost entirely normal and even wrote about the things she felt and how she perceived the world during that time. The brain is an incredibly resilient organ in some respects, but just as fragile in others.

I wanna see you react to his McNasty video. That being said, I've never been big on react videos. But you and 1 other British guy I've been watching are really pretty good. I enjoy your banter bouncing off of others banter. Keep it up Marine Oh and it'd be cool to see you react to the video Wendigoon did on Garbo the Spy

I was wondering if you would play the video to the end and catch Roy's speech. As Nic says, someone's been cutting onions.

His speech that he showed at the end was great. More people should watch it. I think I watched it, but it's possible that I watched a different one that too was great. Like the full thing, and not just a few minute clip from it.

It is such a good book. I bought it right after Nic dropped the video originally and could not put it down. I finished it in a week reading it in every free second I had.

There's actually a movement to rename a base after him; it hasn't happened yet but it seems likely that he'll get one in the future. He already has a Navy ship and several schools named after him.

I can kind of relate to the rehab part. Years ago I was bed ridden do to a spinal injury, but I couldn't afford physical therapy. So lil by lil I crawled around on my stomach , I got myself to the point where I could walk, (that was embarrassing due to the tension it pulled my head to the right side, and pushed my shoulder up so my head and shoulder were stuck like that). Despite all that I kept walking around, I didn't care if I looked disabled mentally. 2 month later I was able to walk around. I beat the odds. After suffering a severe Cyasciatic (that's one of the top 5 disks in your back. Nolin that case you would be in a wheelchair for the rest of your life) nerve I can walk up straight and run short distances. I still have issues sometimes I either shake uncontrollably or a limb stops working, but I still beet the odds

In infantry school our handbook had stories of Medal of Honor winners. It was 2002 when I went thru. I read SGMs story every morning to steel myself for not only the day ahead but to prepare myself for my future in combat. Murphy is one of Americas greatest hero’s. He was one of the most decorated soldiers of WWII. His story was also in our infantry handbook. You missing the real story if you’re looking into “Rambo “

The NVA were able to move large amounts of troops and supplies through Laos on the “Ho Chi Minh trail” undetected on foot, truck, and bicycle paths, NVA engineers would climb the trees adjacent to the paths and weave the tree canopy’s together to camouflage trails and a multitude of other ways to hide troop and supply movements
