[TheCentralServices]

Falluhjah - The American Auschwitz

[Dbue18]

@TheCentralServices Fail lol. This is not even close or relevant to Auschwitz

[cybershot480]

i read the book and in it is a section about this exact situation, and what it doesnt tell you is that same day not too long before he was wounded Lcpl michael Hanks 3/1'ssquad leader i believe was killed as well, anyone who wants to read the book about these valiant Marines the book is called "We were one" it is a very good book, Semper fi

hoooahh is army, oh well they both kick ass

[isaiahman1234567]

thats badass

[6341026p]

Open your eyes politician making us fool. They are hidding the truth. This is X-Files. War is not the solution of any problem. Those make the wars who love innocents blood in other words, they r vampire. American has lost their molarity in all over the world because of darmitical wars. Nothing find in Iraq means Bilogical Weapons. Iraqies r not very intellegent so how did they get bilogical weapons. American gave them in war agaist Iran n want to test on people.Think people think still have time

[6341026p]

On all wars there are total loses of American people. Use the billions of billions $ on so called war gainst terror. Thats the plan of think tank to occupy the rich resource land to earn lots of money. They use the all sources of media on home made plan of 9/11. Start wars; They just use to soldiers as a dumy on chees games called wars. First lose Vatiname war n killed million of people there, now lose in Iraq and Afganistan nothing getting from their n now thinking to attack on Iran. Foolish:(

[wakeNbakePIZZA]

fuck yeah oorah these guys are badass

RIP stokes once a marine always a marine

[wakeNbakePIZZA]

4:30 you can see the bottom of the grenade missing

[Houzeparty34]

I think about Cpl. Sean Stokes a lot. His death made me so sad. I have the newspaper article on the refer from point in which he lost his life and was memorialized in the article. I hope as a former marine that I am worthy of his sacrifice and hope more Americans know about the quality of the young men that serve in the USMC Infantry. )03's forever. First to go last to know! Always a Devil Dog!

[GentlemanJaeger]

Sean Stokes died july thirtieth 2007 do to injuries sustained in an i.e.d. blast during operations in al anbar province Iraq. He was a member of the third battalion first marine regiments battalion commanders personal security detail. Rest in peace brother. You're never forgotten! LIMA!!!??? WARRIORS!!!!!!

[cuwag2]

Hat's off to the CO who busted the door, and my ball's get hard when I see that m249 layin down the spraw in the hallway when they pulled Sean out. Kill, or Be kIlled. Dominick Pilla, Black Hawk Down. was shot down by a 14 year old boy with an Ak-47. they locked eyes for a moment, even if it is a kid behind the trigger. in the moment, Kill or be killed, Like hoot says (my fav character) Once that first bullet goes past your head....politics,ethics,morale­s, all that goes right out the window..

[cuwag2]

please correct me if wrong, Sean died in the 3rd battle of Fallujah?

[TehMattz]

Sean Stokes was a real marine.. Tough, brave, deadly.. A real american hero.

[whiff1962]

One has got to be young to be a Marine!

[Ooorah14]

He is in a book called WE WERE ONE its great flows his squad and other squads in 3/1 by Patrick k Odonell

[saskls8388]

I have nothing against you Shifty but if my brother would have been a greedy faggot he would have ran out the house first hence....his friends wouldnt have saved him he was the first one out. its a two way street there all brave extrodinary men

[shifty2757]

I have nothing against Sean Stokes, but I think the real heroes are the two guys who got him out.

[Jackson1010]

what about the fact that Sean always volunteered to be point man, and after 2 deployments to Iraq he returned a third time after his CO told him he had done enough and tried to talk him out of it. Sean Stokes is a real hero just like every other marine who has died in battle

[Forzanuccii]

Its all about The Guy next to you :)

[nwpa24]

Rest in peace brother Sean!!! You are with me!!!!!!!!!!!

[downdmk]

WW2 the english were getting there butts kicked. Remember Dunkirk? Name one battle the english won prior to the entry of american forces in the fall of 1942? Thats right and Rommel was kicking ut butts in africa until we got there. American industry and manpower won the war hands down. 50,000 Sherman tanks most of them in ETO. UK was never able to make any weapon on that scale at anytime.

[masterchief628]

No Offense intended but the brits did win The Battle of Britian which took place officially from 10 of July to 31 of October 1940

[MI5KGB]

lol we didnt do fuck all until germans and italians were pushed back to the atlantic side of africa. brits were fightin 2 countries at same time and pushed em bak and protected the middle eastern oil fields so giv em credit

[ProudOZBodyboarder]

Remember it was the Australian who won the first Victory against the Imperial Japanese Army at Milne Bay.

[merks91]

pssh yeah you brits would have been fine without us right? and of course the russians and brits helped SO MUCH against the Japs. you'd be speaking German if it wasn't for the US you brits just hate to admit it. and now look at your country is slowly but surely being taken over by the radical muslims. have fun with that!! only an asshole would come onto a memorial video to bash America.

[MI5KGB]

americas bein taen over by hispanics n niggas and germany wudnt of been half west it wud of all been communist russian so its the russians tht saved em

[epsoff]

when i read your previous comment I thought 'wow! an intelligent guy, knows his history!' then i read this, and i couldn't believe it was the same guy.

Do you not have any feelings of sympathy for the way your country has treated black people throughout history?

You do know why so many black people are in the USA, right?

[merks91]

RIP sean. you seemed like an Amazing marine. i'm giving a speech about the battle of Fallujah in a few months and will mention Sean's brave actions in the battle. semper fi.

[merks91]

we didnt' get humiliated in vietnam. we almost defeat them in teh tet offensive but the pussy liberals complaining is what made it "humiliating" you must have failed history because here are some "third world countries" we've beaten. England, germany, spain, japan, korea, and many more. i hope you get hit by a drunk driver you dumb piece of shit

[merks91]

the Marines did amazing in fallujah. it was a huge military victory. not 100 americans killed but several thousand jihadists dead? pretty good to me. they weren't little kid. hardcore islamic fighters from all over(chechnya, jordan, afghanistan) the world flocked to fight in fallujah. they were also hopped up on adrenaline and other drugs which made them almost super human. you know nothing of what you're talking about.

[maxwellboi]

We get battered in every conflict...but what makes us able to win is our mental additude that we are the best. We do the things the most people are afraid of, but i dont think you understand that and i dont expect you to.

[maxwellboi]

ok ...u go into combat and see if u can do any better, if u think u can do better than us go right ahead,but when the smoke cleared the fallujah fell and we are trying to rebuild it from the ground up and jus to let u know, this is jus a reenactment.

[maxwellboi]

ur full of shit mrkippers u have no idea what ur talking about, where there in falljuh...no so stfu!!

[reginagoulartsantos]

Oh, God, I don`t Know what to say... it´s so dreadful... terrible, but sure, you are heroes.

God bless all of you.

[PRToxic]

"Its the old who declare war, but its the young that die"

[asianwannabeamerican]

whenever there's a car bombing or something, that's being done by insurgents. American troops are the targets, not the perpetrators of this instability. we accidentally bomb 20 people. the terrorists purposely execute 50 Iraqis, cut our contractors throats, and bomb a police station but all you focus on is the 20 we bombed on accident. we're not trying to hurt people. what about when we weren't at war there? was it all peaceful and lovely there? yet you fail to recognize all that.

[mak82hyd]

mate, you have your views and I have mine. Killing innocent people is inhumane whether it was done by US and their allies does it or Insurgents. All i wanted to say after I watched videos like this is in Media whenever a american or uk troop dies they say he was a hero, brave etc...lol which i find it is funny. anyone who goes to fight a war putting his life to risk is brave but hopefully we will here the other side of the story one day.

[asianwannabeamerican]

next, i didn't insult you. don't insult me. i support the US because I'm greedy? what if I supported Britain? would I be greedy then? people didn't support the US because they thought they'd get some sort of monetary reward, that's ridiculous. As I said before, these Vietnamese and the ethnic minorities that were all over the south feared for their freedoms and lives. you understand that right? you're accounting for 'war crimes' of the US but you're turning a blind eye to all of their atrocities

[asianwannabeamerican]

why should I be ashamed? you have sympathy for the communists and Vietcong guerillas fighting for what they believed in. fine. but i'm asking you to understand that MILLIONS of Vietnamese tried to escape Vietnam in 1975 because they feared for their freedom, their lives, and their families. I doubt you know any Vietnamese or Cambodians. Of course the US made mistakes but look at life now. Vietnam is at peace but is still a terrible violater of human rights. have you heard of this at all?

[asianwannabeamerican]

why would you not respect these men unless you were one of the bad guys? answer that? because they bombed your country? don't give me that crap. I'm Vietnamese and my parents whole-heartedly supported the bombings in Vietnam even though they lived there.

[asianwannabeamerican]

so why can't they get air support? we have technology because we're better, we're not better because of technology. get it? fancy stuff is useless unless the soldier is good enough to use it. if you want to make a good argument and prove that you're right, then stop trashing people and spewing hate on the good guys. you don't deserve to live in a respectable country like the UK. you give the British a bad name.

[lukerulez27]

that was awesome when the guy came flying through the door

[reliablethreat23]

GOD bless the U.S. troops!!!

[mak82hyd]

mate if you think we need you please let me tell you that you are in dreams. all we want is you guys leave us alone for us to develop on our own. you guys are looting us. we will fight or killl each other but we will unite and develop. leave us alone. we ll know what ur troops are doing there

[asianwannabeamerican]

I assume that you think we're in Iraq just for oil huh? That's the only reason you see? Hitler wanted oil when he invaded Russia. Japan invaded the southern Pacific because they needed resources. why did they treat those places with cruelty while we're in-country trying to maintain security and rebuilding what we had to destroy and building schools. please, understand that all media has a bias against everything. 'good news is no news'. that's why you don't hear about the good work we do.

[mak82hyd]

US has no reason to be in any other country or to be a big brother to teach us what to do and it should get back to its home and obviously should defend if attacked by any country.

[MrsNewson]

why dont you go over there and see how you would do in the combat zone u fuckin pussy fuck you and everybody else who thinks bad of the army british or u.s. faggot

[XtremeEuph]

Wow...sad. You really think EVERY single soldier as an idividual has no guts. and is driven to save each other only because they are supposedly racist?? I am a Canadian soldier. Your statement is true to a small degree. Most US/UK soldiers I have met are NOT what you describe, and their actions ARE heroic. I am in no way racist. As a matter of fact if I were, I would refuse to provide aid to all the afghan people like I do. God Bless, and go fuck yourself.

[Yoshiling]

My friend's brother was killed by a roadside bomb as well in May 2007. RIP heroes. You're gone, but NEVER forgotten.

[fmflores2000]

thank you very much mr stokes for the freedom and safety you have contributed for me and my family. God bless you man .thanks.... rest in peace

[wtfbitch00]

RIP man, you guys are heroes

[Jason791]

God bless you sean and rest peace bro

[jay3antjay3ant]

Evil abounds much and some choose to give their lives for a higher cause. May God bless him and the remaining troops.

"Never have so few given so much for so many"

Trust in our Lord Jesus to save us in life and death.

[BMXUK123]

RIP Sean, you've gone to heaven to re-group with your fellow countrymen.

[usmc8819]

r.i.p sean stokes itss true americans and heroes such as urself that let americans live freely

[streetgangtm]

Dude, just shut up.

[ronandali]

FUCK YOu!!! STFU !!!

[Shittywaffles]

thats sad this guy died. I remember watching this video with my brother years ago and thinking how great it was he survived this.

[LouDawgy]

i JUST NOW watched this on History Channel. On this rainy Nebraska Veterans' Day, I'm honored to be an American because of people like Stokes. I'll never forget what we fight for. I'm 21 years old, and will be joining the Marines next June, HOORAH!! Happy Veteran's Day guys!

[bosoko]

I just wish the United states would have used its resources when It was needed. George BUsh fucked US.

God Be with our Troops

[apacheah69]

what? what you said made no sense

[bosoko]

What I mean is when it was necessary, what is the need of fighting in in IRAQ

Saddam hussein was the most secular muslim leader in the middle east, And he was sunni, now iraq will be ruled by shites who tend to go overboard with it.

[joysgirl]

Stokes you SOB i love you man SEMPER FI!!

[Aorticax]

Sean Stokes = one of the toughest men who has ever lived.

Semper Fi.

[Cagefighter2240]

I'm glad.....no PROUD that we have men in our armed forces like these. Keep up the good work. Be safe. And come home VICTORIOUS! Semper-Fi!!!

[alxusmc]

Marines like Jason Dunham and Sean Stokes have to always be remembered and never forgotten, a few years from now these Marines and the battle of fallujah will be remembered and honored at Marine Corps ball ceremonies. Its important that the new generation of Marines affected by todays media remember how important the men were. Never forget

Semper Fi!!

[jurgenmanfred]

semer fuking fi

[alxusmc]

Just finished We Were One, damn these boys are tough!!

Semper Fi!!

[guidopwr56]

that was one of the best books i've ever read oorah

[baldy308]

the story of the platoon he served with can be read about if you grab the book by patrick o'donell "we were one". it also states that pvt. stokes at the time single handedly killed 9 insurgents. its an awsome book considering that i, myself dont really buy books.

[GordonALWAYS]

A level 2 concussion and he still kept firing!!! Damn. Hes a Marine! Tough as nails.

[madmarine3533]

I was in Fallujah on this day and many more.

2nd amphibian assault bn. Semper Fi YAT YAS!!

[iraqiboy82]

how was it ?

[Commissar1215]

If anyone one here wants to read a good book about the first hand account of Marines during the attack on Fallujah in November of 2004, read, We Were One by Patrick K. O'Donnell, The whole book follows Lima Company while O'Donnell was with them. The book mentions Stokes and what he did, O'Donnell also did small interviews with the Marines, including Stokes. It really is a great book, and shows us from a first-hand perspective what these men go through, and why we should honor them.

[joemarket700]

men,that was really brave.

[onebadassque]

SEMPER FI BROTHERS!

[foldedintobeauty2]

wow that was truly awesome

[ohhwonn]

read no true glory by bing west

[mhx1000000]

their making the current administration ritch but dams these guys are heroic

[yopabs]

[cjleger337]
