    I spent Bootcamp and School of infantry with Dakota Meyers and even then he was a leader and a stellar marine.
  • As an Iraqi, I respect this man a lot for not only his heroic acts, but how humane he is.
  • @PLAYER2035
    This story hits 10x harder after watching Afghanistan fall today…

    I sat in my patrol car at the verge of tears humbled. As a Marine myself I'm at a loss of words. Semper Fidelis brother.

    How well prepared is Jocko! It's crazy how well he set up his questions and leads the conversation in such a way that he ends up going back to the book, having set up the situation already.

    My God, the more I learn about Sgt. Meyer's actions, the more I realize what an incredible deed he did. Also, the more I listen to Jocko, the more I understand what an incredible leader and SEAL commander he was. His intellect is off the charts.

    Jocko should have narrarated the audio book. His voice is perfect

    This was the most gut wrenching,emotional Podcast I ever listened to,Dakota laid it all on the line with little support from the higher ups. You can tell he’ll carry that day the rest of his life.I hope he has peace in his life.

    "....I was not going to cry...." Meanwhile, I'm in tears while both of these men...who have been through.... beyond harrowing situations...are centered, and in control of their emotions. Absolutely amazing. God bless Dakota, Joco, the Marines, our military personnel...and God bless the USA. What a podcast man. The hair on my arms is still standing str8 up.
  • When he said "There was no doubt in my mind that I was gonna die but I had something to do until the darkness came" my eyes filled up with tears and I got chills. wow how insanely brave is that. Thank you both for your service and sacrifice. This world needs more men like these.

    "I didnt just lose 4 brothers that day, I lost 10". Thats as real as it gets folks. Love this dude
  • @zachwochok9499
    Listened to Joe Rogan for 5 minutes then searched for this and started listening to this to the end.
  • Was listening to this while working in my shop. When he mentions that the TOC learned that it was Marines on the ground, when he said "all support stopped", I literally dropped what I had in my hands and stared at the wall. There's absolutely nothing to say to that.
  • @mzmagicdust
    "They would switch me my worst day, to have one more day" heartbreaking statement but glad Dakota can think of it all that way!
  • @jehjeh37111
    "There was no doubt in my mind that I was going to die...I knew it. But I was gonna make the sonofabitches earn it! This should be a movie.
  • @mtdmoody
    This is one of the best podcasts I've ever watched. What a grueling story. It definitely leaves you at a loss for words.

    The most badass Marine and the most badass SEAL conversating.
