I was a 20th SOS Green Hornet gunner 70'-72' and I want to thank Tilt for his lauding of our efforts. Always good to hear from a "Ground Studies" team member.
-
I've read the book, but seeing John Stryker Meyer's mannerisms, watching his expressions, hearing his inflections, and Jocko's follow on questions make this podcast a true jewel. Well done!
-
Jocko, you struck gold with this warfighter. I love his stories, but I really enjoy his remarkably balanced perspective on enduring these things -- which comes through in his demeanor and presentation. It's great to see him laugh at himself and still understand the sobriety/weight of what he did. Thanks for getting him on these last couple podcasts.
-
I’m Cambodian. I can totally see a Cambodian guy coming in with a grenade over a lost poker game lol. I love hearing about the interaction with the natives. Great episode.
-
I’ve enjoyed every single podcast but these last two have been straight 🔥🔥 I could listen to this man for days.
-
The comment section for these podcasts is probably the most civilized part of the entire internet.
-
Meyer is one of the baddest men to ever serve in the US Army, but I love that he looks like a history teacher and laughs like your friend’s dad telling jokes at a party. So unassuming. What a legend!
-
I often forget how lucky I am to have never experienced even the slightest fraction of the horrors of war.
-
1:14:20 Spider would hang out the window and make a gun run with a CAR-15. I honestly don’t know if I’ve heard of a more badass moment in this podcasts entire history. Except for Dick Thompson jumping into the triple canopy by himself to singlehandedly help the rescue mission.
-
My father served two tours with MAC-V-SOG in Viet Nam. He never really spoke about it prior to his passing from lung cancer as a result of exposure to agent orange during his service. I miss him, and respect him for his service.

Some want to meet the Pope, some want to meet a President. I want to meet "TILT" !!!!!!
-
This dude...is just one of those dudes no matter how hard ya try...ya can't become one...if you are..you just are
-
I think Jocko's favorite thing in the world are 5 second claymore fuses.
-
“I had my first Jocko moment, the good news is we found them, the bad news was they were coming to kill my ass” lmao 😂🤣
-
I could listen to this man all day long. Thank you for your service sir
-
My grandfather served 3 tours as a volunteer in Vietnam as someone with a heavily redacted DD214. Thank you Jocko and Mr. Meyer for shedding some light on things he may or may not have experienced. I would hope to know if any of these fine men would have known my grandfather.
-
My grandfather served in Vietnam. It’s crazy to think that he died at 18 shortly after getting over there. He died younger than I am now. Just wild.
-
Who would give this podcast a thumbs down? The man is a living legend. Thanks for have him back Jocko and Echo.
-
Tilt's laugh after JW recounts one of his harrowing missions is more a giggle reminiscent of some school kid remembering some prank on a teacher, speaks volumes of this man.
-
Can you please get that pilot on the podcast that John Stryker Meyer talked so highly about!
