I don't think any career path in military infantry is more associated with killing than a sniper. But how close to reality is that perception?  Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts.  My guest today is Johnathan Taylor. JT was a Marine Scout Sniper with multiple tours of duty in the Middle East before shifting to a job working with the Department of Veteran's Affairs. His experiences overseas paint a picture you may not have considered before, because it's not the primary focus of action movies. And maybe that contributes to the attitude that distance from a horrible event is proportional to the amount of mental trauma one develops. But that's a crazy thought to have! Join me as we learn more about this! ( Www.ScoutSniper.Org ) ( Www.MagicMind.Com/Dumb 20% off with Discount Code: DUMB20) Let's find a hidden position! Thank you all for listening. I know we covered a lot of stuff there, but I hope everyone takes what JT said to heart when he said "trauma is trauma". It really doesn't matter how you developed it, so long as you can remember that it's just as valid for you to have it as anyone else, and that you seek help. "It's not your fault, but it is your responsibility." Especially going through these seasons where having a little helping hand can make all the difference. Speaking of the season, it's almost halfway through the last month, and things are looking promising behind the scenes. Here are the updated rankings: 1. The United States, led by New York, South Carolina, and Oregon. 2. Germany. Still battling the US for number one! With Berlin topping the internal leaderboard. 3. The United Kingdom, with England now way ahead of the others 4. Australia, desperately holding on thanks to New South Wales. 5. Canada, almost back from the dead! Led by previous powerhouse Ontario. That's it for this week! Have a great week, a great weekend, and I'll see you all back here for the next episode!

Jordan Laird is a former Marine Scout Sniper who served multiple tours overseas, with his final deployment into Afghanistan being the most bloody and traumatic. Upon returning home Jordan found new battles awaiting him, some that came close to taking his life. While Jordan suffered TBI during his time in the service and certainly carries scars from his fights both at war and at home, he is now actively engaged in bringing hope to other men who are struggling as he once did.

Manny Vega has experienced transitions from the military and law enforcement. Unfortunately he has experienced significant trauma in his life from the time he was a child and being abused by a Catholic priest. To get out of the environment he grew up in he enlisted in the Marine Corps when he was 17 years old while he was still in high school. In the Marine Corps he became a scout sniper and had a traumatic experiences with death of fellow marines where he earned the Navy and Marine Corps Medal as well as almost losing his life during a beach landing. He joined LAPD in 1992 because he had given a fellow Marine a ride up to L.A. to take the test and because he needed to stay in the area, Manny took the test also. He lateraled to the Oxnard PD to be closer to home but was forced to medically retire in 2008 after injuring his knee in a foot pursuit, compounded by his lawsuit against the Catholic Church at the same time. In 2018 his son Patrick enlisted in the Marine Corps, but subsequently lost his life during boot camp after getting sick. After the loss of his son, in 2020 Manny co-founded the non-profit Save our Servicemembers with other Gold Star families who lost service members, or were severely injured, early in their military service. Today he owns Anacapa Inudstries and he explains all the services his company offers through seeing opportunities and figuring a way to be able to do that needed service.

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Marine Scout Sniper's are History Disturbing news dropped this week, on Tuesday, One day before the anniversary of Carlos Hathcock's passing, the USMC announced they are doing away with Scout Snipers as they currently exist.  Traditions mean nothing anymore and the Marines are being gutted in a lot of way.  Tim Parkhurst President of the Scout Sniper Association is on the podcast with me discussing the details.  Tim lays out the new orders and the direction the USMC plans on taking themselves in terms of the Sniper community.  It appears from Tim's reading of the Orders the Basic Scout Sniper School is going away. In fact the 0317 MOS will be retired, going away.  The details are public if you want to dig deeper. But I really appreciate Tim reaching out to me regarding this development.  With that said, the USMC Scout Sniper Association is stronger than ever with a lot of events and plans in motion.  Check out the Website for all the details, and be sure to support where you can. https://scoutsniper.org/ Also we are currently engaged in our 03/17 Day Sweepstakes for the Terry Cross Rifle I spoke about, you can enter here: https://scoutsniper.org/scout-sniper-annual-sweepstakes/ Terry Cross Zealot Rifle package with NF Scope is available.  Guys as always, thanks for listening, thanks for sharing, be sure to comment, and thank you Tim for joining me today.  Lowlight

For his performance and leadership, he was highly commended upon returning home. He was named the #1 Navy SEAL Chief, nominated for a Silver Star, and slated for promotion to Senior Chief. He was then awarded a coveted training billet for his ‘twilight tour' as a SEAL, where in his last years in the SEAL teams he would bestow his experience and knowledge to future SEAL team members as they prepared to deploy.Eddie who was acquitted after being accused of war crimes. He came to national attention in the United States after he was charged in September 11th 2018 with ten offenses under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. In the most prominently reported offense, he was accused of fatally stabbing an injured 17-year-old ISIS prisoner, photographing himself with the corpse, and sending the photo to friends.On July 2, 2019, Gallagher was convicted of posing for a photograph with the corpse of an ISIS fighter, but was acquitted of all other charges after Special Operator Corey Scott, a member of Gallagher's team granted immunity as a witness against Gallagher, testified that he had killed the prisonerhttps://theeddiegallagher.com/Support the Gallagher non-profit foundation benefiting service members and law enforcement personnel at www.pipehitterfoundation.orgSupport the show - https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=9LG48GC49TW38Website - www.zerolimitspodcast.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/zero.limits.podcast/?hl=en

Chief Gallagher and his family suffered in silence for well over a year at the hands of a mounting whisper campaign started by a small group of disgruntled junior members of his platoon who had been called out by him as cowards on deployment. They were unwilling to keep up with his demands as an aggressive team leader and chief, and turned to deceit in order to escape scrutiny.Then, on September 11, 2018 he was arrested and unjustly charged with war crimes. Nearly eight months of pre-trial confinement -- being locked in prison before your court date -- followed.Only after a national outcry, a grassroots campaign led by his family, and an intense legal battle was Eddie found not guilty. He was finally free – proven innocent – but came dangerously close to being crushed by a military justice system corrupted by political correctness, careerism, and incompetence.The actions of the government - the very Navy Eddie served for 20 years - were appalling. They illegally leaked to the media to smear Eddie in the court of public opinion. They withheld exculpatory evidence. They spied on his legal counsel. Then, after being defeated, the Navy leadership had the gall to bestow achievement medals -- the same kind that Eddie was awarded for valor in combat -- to the corrupt prosecutors for losing their case.The Gallagher family tragically learned how broken the system is, that our service members and first responders can be unfairly and unjustly targeted, and how vital outside help can be in fighting back against this kind of corruption. They vowed, having lived through the terror of his case and escaping injustice, they would commit themselves to helping others in similar situations and fight to reform a broken system.⚡ Connect with Eddie: https://theeddiegallagher.com/ | https://eddiegallagherbook.com/#buy-now | https://www.instagram.com/eddie_gallagher/?hl=en | https://www.linkedin.com/in/eddie-gallagher-bb628467/ |⚡ Connect with Greg Witz: witzeducation.com | LinkedIn | Instagram | Twitter | FacebookCheck out  our betterLEADER Program: https://www.witzeducation.com/betterleader

This week's Urban Valor episode features Marine Scout Sniper & Vietnam combat veteran, RJ Jackson. RJ enlisted into the Marine Corps in 1966 after hearing one of his good friends was shot and killed in Vietnam. He was selected to become a scout sniper after demonstrating expert proficiency with his rifle. During his tour in Vietnam, RJ was ambushed and wounded multiple times. During one ambush he was hit with a grenade and took shrapnel all over his body. As he lay on the ground to play dead, several enemy fighters walked past him thinking he wasn't alive. RJ said some of the enemy fighters who walked by him were Chinese, which one of his Lieutenants confirmed later. Sitting down with and hearing RJ story was an honor, and we're proud to have documented it and solidified it's place in history. At Urban Valor, our mission is to give Veterans a voice by presenting them with a platform to share THEIR story in THEIR words, allowing them to share the story they wish to share. Urban Valor is an organization that documents the stories of veterans in their own words and recollection

For nearly twenty years, Eddie served as a Navy Corpsman, Marine Scout Sniper and Navy SEAL. Eight overseas combat deployments, two Bronze Stars and one Navy Achievement Medal, both with “V” for Valor.On his last combat deployment to Iraq in 2017, Eddie led a platoon to successfully defeat ISIS in Mosul. For his performance and leadership, he was highly commended upon returning home. He was named the #1 Navy SEAL Chief, nominated for a Silver Star, and slated for promotion to Senior Chief. He was then awarded a coveted training billet for his ‘twilight tour' as a SEAL, where in his last years in the SEAL teams he would bestow his experience and knowledge to future SEAL team members as they prepared to deploy.However, despite this record of success and a sterling reputation, a conflict he thought was resolved during his last deployment followed him home. Chief Gallagher and his family suffered in silence for well over a year at the hands of a mounting whisper campaign started by a small group of disgruntled junior members of his platoon who had been called out by him as cowards on deployment. They were unwilling to keep up with his demands as an aggressive team leader and chief, and turned to deceit in order to escape scrutiny.The mutiny and ensuing whisper campaign grew into a hellish process, spiraling out of control. Ed was notified he was under investigation months after returning home but naively assumed his command and investigators would see through the absurdity of what was being said. After all, the claims of this small group defied eyewitnesses, logic, and were downright outrageous.Then, on September 11, 2018 he was arrested and unjustly charged with war crimes. Nearly eight months of pre-trial confinement -- being locked in prison before your court date -- followed.Only after a national outcry, a grassroots campaign led by his family, and an intense legal battle was Eddie found not guilty. He was finally free – proven innocent – but came dangerously close to being crushed by a military justice system corrupted by political correctness, careerism, and incompetence.The magnitude and terror of the ordeal that Eddie and his family went through will never leave them. During a raid, Eddie and Andrea's kids were taken out at gunpoint from their home and dragged into the street in their underwear. He was arrested from a TBI (traumatic brain injury) treatment clinic and thrown in jail with a prison population of convicted sex offenders for eight months before his trial. He was denied desperately-needed medical care, legal counsel, and even basic necessities like food and hygiene.The actions of the government - the very Navy Eddie served for 20 years - were appalling. They illegally leaked to the media to smear Eddie in the court of public opinion. They withheld exculpatory evidence. They spied on his legal counsel. Then, after being defeated, the Navy leadership had the gall to bestow achievement medals -- the same kind that Eddie was awarded for valor in combat -- to the corrupt prosecutors for losing their case.The Gallagher family tragically learned how broken the system is, that our service members and first responders can be unfairly and unjustly targeted, and how vital outside help can be in fighting back against this kind of corruption.

The public has a high expectation that law enforcement officers should be able to see in the future and know what is going to happen on a call for service. We have seen new legislation that is based upon this presumption, especially in situations where force is used. How exactly are officers supposed to learn how to see into the future, much less through clothing and concealed areas to know if there is a weapon present on a suspect or not? Today's guests on the Policing Matters podcast may be able to show us how we can sharpen our senses and use science to help us predict outcomes based on human reactions. Brian Marren is a human behavior subject matter expert and Senior VP of Operations at Arcadia Cogenerati, a company that trains in the science of human behavior. A former Marine Scout Sniper with multiple deployments to Iraq, he has worked with people from the military, Fortune 500 companies, schools, hospitals, churches and law enforcement agencies. Greg Williams is the president and founder of Arcadia Cognerati, and a decorated urban law enforcement professional and a decorated former soldier with over 30 years of combined experience and expertise. Brian and Greg also host a podcast called “The Left of Greg.”

Grant shares with us what it was like coming home from intense urban combat to out of the United States Marine Corps within a few months. Combine that with getting married and starting college in the fall of 2005. He had no idea he had PTSD or how to deal with any of his symptoms or issues. Luckily he had an incredible support structure in his immediate and extended family to help him through some of the darkest times in his life. VA appts were over an hour and a half away, and the doctors has no idea how to deal with someone from the current conflict. Grant shares how he recovered, what he is doing now, and how he is on a mission to help others life a very capable fulfilling life. HeHe can help you too! He can show you how to improve your life.

Part 6 is a tough episode. We are incredibly lucky to hear Grant's detailed story of his time in Fallujah in 2004. He describes what it is like to lose friends, and teammates. When US Marines admit they are exhausted and tired, I assure you that you have no idea what that really means. They do not give in to tired and exhaustion. United States Marines are the toughest fighting force this planet has ever known. Even they have limits and struggles. After all, they are human. We begin to hear Grant's struggles as they finish up the battle of Fallujah and prepare to come home. 

The movie "A Few Good Men" was based on real life events. David Cox was a motivated Marine Scout Sniper on Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. He did participate in a code red that inspired the movie, however in reality no one died as a result of the hazing. The police believe that David may have known his killer. His body was found in a nature reserve on the Charles River. It was a twenty minute walk into this secluded area, between two shooting ranges. There was almost a foot of newly fallen snow in the area, yet he did not wear boots, however in a startling contrast, David was attired in some military gear, that he seldom chose to wear, was this a ruse? This case is a real whodunit!! Please share this episode! Subscribe on Apple or Spotify!Thank you to our sponsor:A Great Podcast: Military True Crime Addicthttps://apple.co/32NkYJu

Part 5 is all about the United States Marines Battle of Fallujah, Iraq in 2004. Grant shares details about the advances, the changes in tactics the enemy uses from the previous battle, how the American Commanders change their own tactics, and how death and destruction is everywhere. The "prepping" of the battle field was the best fireworks display he has ever seen. Grant describes the heroics that are occurring all around them due to the fierce fighting. True to Marines words and actions, many wounded do not want to leave the battle.  Grant references a book "We Were One" written by Patrick K. O'Donnellhttps://www.amazon.com/We-Were-One-Shoulder-Fallujah/dp/0306815737I just received mine in the mail today, and look forward to reading it.

Joe Chamblin was a Marine Scout Sniper, and a Marine Scout Sniper Instructor! He went on multiple combat deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq. At the end of his career as a Staff Sergeant he was the platoon commander for 3/2 scout sniper platoon where they deployed to Afghanistan. They changed the doctrine of the Scout Sniper and made history for integrating Scout Snipers and Tanks having devastating effect on the battlefield! with 200-300 CONFIRMED kills as a platoon, likely having hundreds more unconfirmed they made history. They had a private lunch with the Commandant of the Marine Corps, as well as the Sgt Major of the Marine Corps, for their gallant actions on the battlefield. They were then rocked by controversy after a video leaked, depicting Joe and his men pissing on deal Taliban fighters who had killed a few of their Marines. Their careers were ultimately affected, but they won their case and continue to crush life!

What You'll Hear: Ken started out mowing lawns, pruning Christmas trees and working at McDonalds Ken grew up as a Chreaster, going to church on Christmas and Easter because his Grandma said they should   Ken's Dad decided to accept Christ after hearing a sermon, and everything changed for Ken and his family   Soon after that, at age 16, Ken accepted Christ as his Savior, but it took a while to figure out what that meant for him Once we're made aware of the penalty of sin, sadly we often have a "not yet" faith and think of Jesus as a 911 call, as opposed to a "right now" faith.  Ken's Dad had a "right now" faith, but Ken did not at first and didn't make Jesus his Lord until his '30's   "I had to figure out that if it's good and not from God, it's not good at all"   "When I joined the Marines everyone was surprised because I was small"   We had a term in the Marines "oxygen thief", I didn't want to be that   "There was a special moment in boot camp where I knew there was never going to be something to make me quit and tarnish my family name, you could say the same with living the Christian life"   Ken served as a Marine Scout Sniper, he was on Presidential security duty for President Clinton and Bush, and served as a Marine Drill Instructor and Marine School Instructor   In 2007 Marine Raiders were added to the special forces   Break 1 - 24:42 - We've been talking about Ken's fascinating experiences in the Marine Corps.  Next we're going to get into his thoughts about changing jobs and his experience in the FCA.   "I'm less concerned with what I do anymore, and more concerned with why I'm doing it"   Ephesians 1:9-10   The purpose is to bring everything together in Jesus   "My entire heart is rooted in making sure that I am trying to draw somebody into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ, because in Him is the common ground we can all exist on"   Ken is an Area Director for FCA and has 4 counties in Eastern North Carolina   The Vision of FCA is that Jesus Christ can transform the world through the influence of coaches and athletes   "We make the mistake of compartmentalizing our faith"   "Ministry is our responsibility, all of us"   "Jesus pitched His tent where we are"   Contact kenlovell75 all over social media or look up Coastal NC FCA

Part 2 with this BADASS.

Our next guest has one of the strongest American names I’ve ever heard and it’s fitting because he is a true American hero. A Santa Barbara, CA native, he joined the Marine Corps after 9/11 and initially served in the Infantry, then as a PSD (Personal Security Detail) and then as an elite operator in the Marine Scout Sniper platoon deploying to Iraq in 2009 and 2010. After retiring from the military, his desire to serve his country and humanity continued while working with a non-profit called Direct Relief International where he was deployed to Haiti twice in 2010 in efforts to help NGO’s (non-governmental organizations) and hospitals get medical supplies after the horrific earthquake that devastated the country. Following his 5 year stint with the non-profit, he moved into private security for a year, doing executive protection for clients based in Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. Basically an overwhelmingly qualified baby sitter at times I would assume for some celebrities and big business personal, but I digress… Now a days, he is the range master for the Santa Barbara Police Department for the past 8 years and in his spare time he runs a firearms training company, DEFEND, where he teaches professional firearms training and tactics derived from real world scenarios and experiences making the training from him the highest of quality, which is what separates him from some of the ‘Influencer firearms instructors’. As if that wasn’t impressive enough, he’s a father of 2 daughters, a husband and has a Kinesiology degree from one of the most prestigious Kinesiology departments in the country, Westmont College, also my alma mater. He’s a warrior, a pipe hitter built like a Brock, his favorite music artist is Lady Gaga, and he’s a man your kids should look up to be like when their older because he embodies what being a true American hero really is… Give it up for our next guest to the show, Nate Brock!

He's the most famous sniper you've probably never heard of. Marine Gunnery Sergeant Carlos N. Hathcock II was a Marine Scout Sniper who served two tours in Vietnam, first in 1966 and returning in 1969. Until the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq he held the record for the most confirmed kills in the United States military. During the course of his two tours in Vietnam he recorded 93 confirmed kills and over 300 unconfirmed kills, building a reputation that was so renowned the North Vietnamese Army and Viet Cong placed a bounty on his head that was equal to three years pay or approximately $30,000. He was known by the army he hunted as "White Feather" for the single white feather he kept tucked in a band on his bush hat. His exploits against such deadly adversaries as "The Apache," "The Cobra," and "The General" were the stuff of legend! Show notes at https://thedigressionpodcast.com/35 Sound Off!

In this episode we brought on special guests from the Army Sniper community, Christopher Roberts and Christopher Rance. Both Roberts and Rance have spent some time not only as Snipers but as instructors at the US Army Sniper School in Fort Benning, GA. At Modern Day Sniper, we want to ensure the term "Modern Day Sniper" doesn't just revolve around what "Caylen and Phil" are up to, but to ensure all of our audience understands that being a Modern Day Sniper is a mindset that we are always learning and always evolving to be as proficient as we can in how we employ our long range precision rifle system, regardless of application. Obviously, for military snipers, it's the development on how to be as proficient and lethal on the battlefield as we can be. For the longest time we've wanted our Army counter-parts to talk about their community and some of the differences of being employed as a Sniper in the Army versus as a Marine Scout Sniper. We've decided we wanted to make this a series, to ensure those that are listening are getting the full understanding of the Army side of the house, from their pipeline, to how their employed, their weapon systems and what are some curriculum differences between their program and the Marine Scout Sniper program. We hope you enjoy this series and please let us know if you have any questions about the Army Sniper program in the comments for the next podcast for us to answer.Don't forget to grab your free pass to the Modern Day Rifleman Virtual Summit. Those interviews will be live from Sept 28 thru Oct 2. But if you want all those interviews immediately and for a life time access, we recommend checking out upgrading to the All Access pass.

Shanty catches up with free-spirited and fun-focused Thomas Gathman, who picked up the trail name "The Real Hiking Viking" due to his Norse-like beard and his warrior status as a former Marine Scout Sniper. Viking served two combat tours in Iraq before coming home, selling all his possessions, and hiking more than 20,000 miles on America's longest trails. In this episode, Shanty goes beyond the iconic beard and unravels Viking's often-overlooked journey from sniper to pro hiker. Viking shines a light on how he was first introduced to thru-hiking culture and what inspired him to step on the trail and never look back.

Imagine setting out on a five day adventure trip to Costa Rica, engulfing yourself in a regimen of yoga, meditation, fitness training, and hiking with a former Marine Scout Sniper turned Special Missions Unit Assault Commander. It certainly sounds like quite a departure from the usual tactical training that's prevalent among guys retired from the special operations community, but it's exactly what Todd Opalski sets out to embark on with the Pathfinder Course. It's a part of his project, Zen Commando. We had Todd on with us four months back on Episode 365 to discuss this, and he's in studio again to tell us how the project is fleshing out. Quite honestly, it sounds incredible, and you may be itching to get a spot when Camp Zen Commando opens shop after hearing more. Also on Episode 404, we answer your emails sent to sofrep.radio@sofrep.com. We love getting them as well as your voice memos, keep 'em coming. Plus, how could we not give our reaction to Lieutenant Commander, Navy SEAL, and now Congressman-elect Dan Crenshaw making an appearance on Saturday Night Live? He delivered a swift verbal throat punch as well as a heartfelt message with comic Pete Davidson in a rare moment of Americans coming together. Enjoy our show?

In this episode we welcome Jordan Laird. Jordan talks about his time as a Marine Scout Sniper and his failure to make arrangements that allowed a smooth transition out of the Marine Corps. Although he has made mistakes that have severely impacted his life and others, he has taken accountability for his actions and adapted to his circumstances.

Doing this show, we meet some guys with incredibly interesting backgrounds. Todd Opalski's history is particularly unique though, making the transition from serving in the Marine Corps as an Officer, a Marine Scout Sniper, and a part of Force Reconnaissance, to then going into the Army and being an Assault Commander in the Special Missions Unit. Prior to that, Todd was also a natural bodybuilder. After leaving the military, Todd transitioned to the tech world in Silicon Valley. So, you may wonder, where does one go from there? Todd has a pretty awesome plan for 2019 to open Camp Zen Commando in Costa Rica. Zen Commando plans on instructing people in a wide array of skills from self-defense to yoga. Todd's even looking for some people to help him on this journey which he gets into with us.

On this episode, we get into some war stories that are certainly not for the faint of heart.  Jesse is a Marine Scout Sniper who served with Jason Delgado, and is one of the names featured in his memoir "Bounty Hunter 4/3."  Jesse also served in the Army with Special Forces, though he seems to look more highly upon his years as a Marine, and he talks about why. We also speak on the massacre in Texas, and the hero of the situation, Stephen Willeford who stopped the shooter in his tracks.  SOFREP has been doing a stellar job covering the situation, and we read from one of the articles on the site digging deeper into the situation written by Green Beret Mark Miller.  We love hearing from our audience, so shoot over any emails to sofrep.radio@sofrep.com.  Your input is always much appreciated.

The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Jason Delgado, Author of BOUNTY HUNTER 4/3. Jason Delgado knows the mean streets. He survived them as a kid during the height of the crack epidemic that ravaged the South Bronx, while friends and family fell into the violence wrought by the drug plague. As a young man he survived them again – a different type of “mean streets” -- this time as a lead sniper during Operation Iraqi Freedom. In his powerful memoir, BOUNTY HUNTER 4/3: My Life in Combat from Marine Scout Sniper to MARSOC (St. Martin's Press, on sale October 3, 2017, $27.99), co-authored with Chris Martin, Delgado recounts how surviving the Bronx was crucial for lessons needed for surviving Iraq, and just as important to him, discovering who he was as shaped by his lifelong battles here and abroad. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Jason Delgado is an accomplished sniper, entrepreneur, tattoo artist, and father. He escaped the dangers of life in the streets of the Bronx only to battle for his life in Iraq during two combat tours as a Marine scout sniper. One of the most important snipers and instructors of the modern era, Delgado helped shaped the future of sniping for American specialist operations while serving as MARSOC's first lead sniper instructor. He is currently working for a security services contractor in Afghanistan as Movement Team Leader for Garda World Global Services.
