  • "Just hundreds of men against against 400 thousand"

    If that's the attitude over there, why pray for the powers of discrimination? Stupid.

  • @cocomaan Not really. 400k who were against the Americans at the time, but many were not insurgents. So their job was to defeat the armed enemy and turn the unarmed enemy- such as the ones who just give tips to insurgents- into friends. Which requires discrimination. This is what they did with the Sunni Awakening and it was quite successful.

  • my fiance in the army hes my everything im soo proud of him and everything he does i love u babee

  • my fiance is in the army

    he is my hero i love him so much i suport him he is sooo amazing

  • YOU CANT PRAY..I'M OFFENDED j/k

  • I love it when soldiers pray before a battle. They know that their lives are at stake and they know that god can get them out of bad situations and save their lives. I am going to serve my country as well and going to go to the asafa and after that hopefully security forces for counter sniper training. I hope thats what God wants me to do.

  • I think its very good how they pray before each mission they know that their lives are at risk and they know that God can help you in many bad situations and can save your life. God bless you guys. I am also going to server my country right after school i am gonna apply for the usafa in Colorado after that going to go ion the security forces for counter sniper training hopefully thats what god has instore for me..

  • they are all heroes no matter what dead or alive..some just simply couldnt make it back..god bless them ALL

  • I'm an Indo-Chinese....But I always support US soldiers (Marine, Army, Navy)....who often do dangerous job, sacrifice themselves and sometimes have to finish an insane mission. I give an ultimate honor to them...They're always in my prayer...God bless you troops.

  • More like police force.

  • the object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his

  • gen. patton is a beast

  • God Bless the USA, the most beautiful nation on Earth. May we be victorious in battle.

  • that was awfully jingoistic..

  • Even though Im Asian.. and i was born in Germany... I Still Give my Prayers and Thanks... To The U.S Military service men and women... They deserve Luck, Life and A Clear Blue sky... But as of now they are giving it Back to Us To Enjoy.. While they Fight and Die in honor For us To Live Freely and In Peace... They Gave up Their Luck, Life and The Clear Blue sky... For Us... And i just wanna say..

    That I'll Be Fucking dammed if i See A Person in America saying "Thank God For Dead Soldiers"

  • Amen

  • FUCK YEAH HOOAH BRO!!!!!

  • That I'll Be Fucking dammed if i See A Person in America saying "Thank God For Dead Soldiers"

    What's that supposed to mean?

  • "We Little Few, We Band Of Brothers"

    God Bless And Keep Safe.

  • I B Here...

  • roght on.

  • Great video I must say!

  • You all are in my prayers. Stay safe, and come home soon. We'll all be waiting for you.

  • God Bless the US Military

  • FUCK GERMAN NAZIs LOL

  • Fuck the US military.

  • fuck the us military? LOL

  • fuck you, you fucking hippy

  • npdavies1025 you disrespectful piece of shit. whether you support the war or not, the least you could do is show a little courtesy for those young men dying in a country for a cause that they are not even sure of anymore. It is not the soldiers fault that they are in Iraq; they are simply following orders, and for critics such as yourself to say such things is completely out of line and simply put: YOU ARE A FUCKING BITCH!!!

  • US Military will take down any country

  • U.S. is the strongest army in the world

  • fuck people who dont enjoy freedom

  • Burn in hell!!

  • I Know the picture of you service will be preverted you will be called baby killers. And I am ashamed of the people who will say such lies! But there more people than you will ever know that respect your service and are greatful to have selfless people like you as americans...God Bless All you and THANK YOU

  • Hooah.

  • this video make a lot of sense. it shows how fucked up and confusing war can be. that war is not all the glory people think it seems to be.

    the guy at 4:20 has some big brass balls.

    May God help us and protect us all. And that one day we can all make sense of this madness.

  • umm macdaddie all i have to say is HOOAH!!! so rite man

  • The bottom line is extremist are denying civil liberties to their own people. Injecting woman and child with gasoline and other crimes against humanity. Islam is supposed to be about peace? Then why dose every one in the streets have ak 47's and why has their been conflict even before U.S. arrived? Peace my ass. Semper fi.

  • hell yeah

  • you retard, that attitude is exactly the reason that they're radicalised in the first place.

  • you play video games did not know that

  • i love sacrifice

  • you'vw got to love those wehrmacht helmets they all wear these days.

  • guess the germans were ahead of their time.

  • Our Soliders have so much bravery!

  • not exactly the army haha..

  • amazing the 506th is the same regiment who liberated France and captured Hitler's Eagle's Nest in WWII. proud history. although I suspect they carry their own PR team to write history the way the US Army wants it written

  • I was actually stationed in Baghdad and it was hard to get out to cover them. I can't say the PR was too hot. They had to put their resources in other directions.

  • Why the fuck are u in Iraq U have got no right to go to there without any reason you just think that u are somekind of a ''police of the world'' You are there only for oil u fucking blood thursty GAYS !

  • I approved this because... well I thought it was so stupid it was funny.

  • Let them talk about us killing civilians, taking the Iraqi's oil and other bullshit. What the idiots dont know is all the oil we have turned over to the Iraq government, and the IED's and suicide bombers that go off in public areas, then we are blamed with the deaths. But if they havent been to Afghanistan, Baghdad, Fallujah, or Any other city or province there, they dont know shit.

  • True heroes indeed. I appreciate what these guys and the rest of the military are doing and have done.

  • Keep up the fight gentlemen! Whooah!!!

  • most soldiers in iraq and afghanistan think it is right that they are there. War is horrible in any situation but they know that in this one they are helping iraq. And in case your retarded and can't figure it out, if we abandon iraq A. they'll fall B. terrorists will think they can win and pull another 9/11. I don't want that do you?

  • What poll is this from? Stars and Stripes shows differently.

  • yes i want usa fall back from iraq and i want to terrorists will take usa out of the map! greetings from europe

  • Umm terrorists? You know they are iraqi people who defend their country. Al-Qaeda maybe attacked US but Iraq didn't. The only attacker in this war was United States and now the whole Iraq is fucked up because of you. But hey! As long as Iraq is fucked up, you have "good reason" to be there and get oil. So why stop fighting.

    Keep on killing children and women there! We need that damn oil!!!

  • While I also want to get out, I think the oil argument is false. China even appears to be getting the largest oil contract in Iraq.

  • lol nothing you "youtubers" say on here is going to change anything. keep that shit to yourself faggot. we're stayin in Iraq and we're gettin some...

  • hey pakor your such an a dumbass. the Iraqi's have been turning the terriosts in. and if you think it's about oil then your very wrong.

  • your an idiot not many people there are innocent they are all behind it so fuck off...why dont you join the military like the rest of us and stop being a youtube pussy and actually see what its like there instead of watching it on tv..have you not realized that the television only shows you what they want you to see fuckstain?

  • These men are not war criminals. I was an infantrymen attached to the unit that took over for them in '06 and let me tell you, it was a tough fight. The entire population of the Mulaab District was practically in arms against you. You could expect to be mortared, RPG'd, gernaded, shot at, and/or blown up by an IED every day; morning, noon, and night. Even the smallest of children who were able to communicate were planning coordinated attackes with the enemy on U.S. forces.

  • Come on guys...who these guys are helping??? They are just killing innocent iraqis!!! Many of them are doing this for fun and you think these guys are heroes??? World is crazy...

  • You can say what you want about the policies, but these guys were not killing people for fun and wanted to do the right thing.

  • You are a ignorant person I was in this unit in that place and we didn't kill anyone who was not trying to kill use or innocent people so you just sit there in you home and talk all you want but what you need to do is ask yourself "What have I done to help people?".

  • if you look up in the dictionary for the definition of an idiot you will find maestropoa...saddam hussien killed more than 300 thousand of his people. if thats not enough to take an initiative (meaning to start doing something if you dont know what initiative means cuz your an idiot)i dont know what is..theyre fighting to protect the freedoms of the Iraqi people that they dont fall under another reign of terror (al queada) and to keep this world a safer place. so be thankful jackass

  • Thats how the world looks at us huh, as criminals. We are all the same no matter how you put it, being right is merely an opinion.

    They are heroes to many because they stand up for their country, and do you honestly think getting shot at is fun? Do you think any one would engage in this activity because its fun?

    War will never be pretty, killing will never be pretty. Accept it.

    And the world is getting dumbed down because people like you waste oxygen talking crap.

    Talk is cheap.

  • here to kill innocent iraqis?! I was in nearby 2nd bat and knew these guys,they for the most part were good dudes.

  • theyre going to iraq for fun?

  • Thank you troops...and be safe...we want you to come back home with us.

  • Right on Brothers, Keep up the Fire ! Pro Patria doughboy

  • god save the german king

    and all american who have german ancestors

  • I would never wage war on anybody unless it threaten my family and my country. Iraq isn't one of those times.

  • These men are war criminals.

  • You English fuck piss off you must still be mad about 1776.

  • we kicked there ass in 1812 too.

  • god bless these men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    thank you all

  • God will help any one who asks them for help... plus God had the Isrelites fight... God asked them to

  • 46 This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcasses of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.

    47 And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD's, and he will give you into our hands.

  • rebelforce8 i completely disagree with. you are absolutely wrong. Phillipians 4:13- I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me.

    ALL means ALL period

    Keep it up boys, im praying for every one of you

  • If you didn't believe so much that those brave men were going to heaven...should they die in combat, then you wouldn't have them over there getting killed.

  • God will not help you in a war its 100% against every policy of religion

    War is War period

  • thats why god helped david?

  • god had its soldiers. god condoned the israelites to wage war...

  • if ur god support war then ur god is shit

  • Some one needs to re-read the bible

  • my friend is part of the 506th 101st and right now in iraq. hope to have you boys home safe.

  • I´m not telling that i want ur army die (usa); what i tell is that u dont should care so much for them, cuz that war is a war where the american countries dont should be (usa and el salvador), dont find sense for that, we are in war 2 (colombia) but it have sense at least, even for me, cuz once they shoot 4 rockets near my house, and i live on bogotá, think about the people who live in the lost cities. PLEASE THINK.

  • i tell you sound you like retard make not sense much do you what... What the fuck guy i can hardly read that gibberish go fuck off and die and fuck columbia too

  • God Bless them

  • The 101st is deployed now...in Iraq and Afganistan. I pray for their safe return.

  • i was in the relieving unit of the 1-506th, i'm in the 1-9, and that shit is no lie...we took over with a lot of contact

  • I want to say that i really care about the troops alot!, R.i.p to the fallen , and the wounded, and god bless those who are still over there!. I will join you soon my brothers!.

  • worked it.

  • David, thank you. Thank you, your unit, and your service.

    Many, (possibly including myself) don't believe in this war, but I don't see this as relevant to what you guys do. You put your name(s) down to serve the country. To do whatever is called for.

    Best of luck. Hope you and your guys make it home safely.

  • god bless the soldiers that died and faught there.

    peace :D

  • soldiers fight wars... not politicians i support the troops but not the war

  • I think that is perfectly fine.

  • my moms friend is in the marines who served in iraq he says a rpg came 500 meters to him while he was going to the bathroom

  • My cousin served in Iraq and got wounded by a RPG blast and sent home, he got a 'million dollar' wound. He was in the 101st and I think he would like to see this.

  • Send him the link and my best wishes.

  • Did he have jump wings? lol yeah I got one of the million dollar wounds only it was from an AK round, one bullet four holes. It sucked more then I can describe from an AK round but from an RPG man I feel sorry for him. I got mine doing something fucken stupid even though I dont regret doing, not one bit. Although I did get a Silver Star and Purple Heart.

  • thanks for serving.

    my stepdad got those same honors in vietnam. his arm was hanging by a thin piece of muscle & he got his guys out before letting anyone help him.

  • where do u sign up for airborne??

  • i bet an army recuting center, the 82nd center is located in fort bragg nc and the 101st is in kentucky i think

  • Yes, the 101st is Fort Campbell KY. Located in Hopkinsville Ky..but stretching to Clarkesville Tn.

  • Semper Fi, return home safely.

  • I wasn't in ramadi but i'll be there for afghanistan...no unit i'd rather serve with. "Stands Alone"

    "We Rollin Dco"

  • Thank you for your service. God Bless you all!

  • These guys have been replaced by another unit now aye?

  • I salute you, heroes! You are the soldiers, you are the guys which catch the fucking bullets. You are the guys who give your life for the mission. Fuck the politicians, the only thing that matters is the man next to you...

    I salute you, heroes

  • I hope that all of you guys are safe, someone i hold dear to my heart was there for the first rush in Ramadi and I hope that all of you guys go home to your families. From a prior soldier to those recent, thanks guys. Your work I admire.

  • you used the music of "Black Hawk Down" didn't you? these guys have my respect!!

  • I cannot remember now.. It might have been. I like that one a lot as well as the Hotel Rwanda track for videos like this.. it mighta been that.

  • i was with in ramadi at the same these guys were and can relate to what they are saying. This makes me proud to be an american.

  • we cant win, but godbless every service man and woman. and f*uck the polticians

  • cant win? were wining fuck your self

  • You can't kill terorism with a bullet. Terorism is an idea you CAN'T kill an idea

  • you watch the news too much were winning go ask any spec ops operator

  • I just want to say thank you to everyone for having interest in this. Getting over 74,000 views now and favorited 227 times is way bigger than I expected when I made this. I hope it gives everyone a great view of the quality of men and women fighting in our Armed Services. There are some other stories as well I have up that I encourage you to look at, like the cooks in Tikrit. It is not as exciting, but those guys did a damn good job.

  • american heros

  • God bless all of them. I want to be in the armed forces when I grow up;I'm so inspired. War ain't no game

  • JOIN THE MARINES!!!! oorah!!!

  • ooh rah!

  • Join the grounddarts sure(like H#$@*!I will) the air force is where its at!

  • OOOH RAH!!

  • Gonzo13fox!!!! I served with that man the first time in ABLE COMPANY 1-503rd Inf. WE kicked ass the first time around, and the second time around they cleaned up once again. Great job to all you guys. I love you all. Able Company 3rd platoon (Cocks!!!) my Band of Brothers. J.B.T 11/9/04 Never forgotten.

  • I am tired of terrorism. Thats the only reason i am joining the armed forces after college. I want to serve my country to the fullest. God Bless all the solders out in iraq and anywhere else fighting

  • You think you will win a war on terror ever? It is impossible fighting a war on terror against 1 country is fighting every citizen in the country. For every innocent you kill their family then those that remain of that family having lost everything throw their lives away. That war is unwinnable you will add to the list of casualties. If you are lucky you will make it hope. God bless the brave soldiers there fighting now.

  • war seems great if u never felt it...

    I think Vergil said that. And its fuckin true

  • I wish I could go to Iraq and kick some ass... I'm fed up with sitting here doing shit all!

  • join the army then? :S but you seem kinda trigger happy..

    aside from that god bless the 101st

  • due to qoute a smart man "war is a glourious place to those who haven't experinced it"

  • totally agree

    war is no paintballmatch, boy

  • yeah.. jakeozzy do you have the balls to actually go over to iraq? probably not. but see im only 14 and ive been doing alot of thinking and research about the army and stuff and when I get old enough im gonna actually do something and im actually gonna sign up to join the military.

  • Hey bro, we replaced you guys in Ramadi. 1-9 INF, 2ID. I was there in 2004 as well with the 503rd. Your fighting is something you can be proud of because when we left, Ramadi was turned around 180 degrees. You would never think it was the same place. It is a pretty safe place now and hopefully it will stay that way.

  • As a former member of the 1-506th, C. Co (Gunfighters), I have to say thank you to each and every Soldier in my old company. The men amazed me each and every day with their kindness and caring for each other and for the way that they got after the insurgents. "Stands Alone"

  • It like Carentan all over again for the 101st

  • Never say that war in the middle east is a mistake , it keeps terrorism far from our houses , i'm thankfull to these soldiers ! They risk their lives , without them , without this war Ben Laden would be able to send his troops everywhere in Europe , USA , or other countries.

  • I agree with u man

  • Hey metalron China cant do jack to us. And other guys who think this war is pointless. Yes it wasn't involved in 9/11, it was for oil. But for who? Bush himself..no it's for us, so don't blame bush for trying to make it easier for us.

  • Just a pointless, needless and wasteful way to use some of finest soldiers in the world at the cost of $275 million per day.

  • hmm

  • I'm so glad they're there, protecting us by shooting civilians and illegally occupying a country that had nothing to do with 9/11. :')

  • shut ur fuckin bitch ass up. dont ever say shit like that about the troops!

  • your bitching isn't going to bring them home, so shut the hell up!

  • Go to hell.

  • its bullshit that the iraq war even started in the first place.. stupid pointless war, although i deeply respect the soldiers who fight there..

  • russia is our allies, iran is dirt poor, venuzuala has poorly trained miltia, and if china enters a war after a year a revolt wud begin in there country. watch the news dip shit

  • I think this is a little bit.. just superficial, but that is what happens when you watch the news in order to be informed.  Also, look up what happened when we went to war with Venezuela in the past. They held their own.

  • modern ven is a little differant, thearmy is eeehhh but the cartels would be dangerous

  • Doesnt matter how much we fight there. The terrorists and China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Venezsuela are going to kill the U.S. anyway. Just waitin for that day.

  • "We Few, We Happy Few, We Band Of Brothers."

    Hooahh! Rangers Lead The Way!

    All The Way! 75th Rgt.

  • these guys are helping to occupy a country...i wouldn't be proud of that. however it's not their fault, that they are there. but i bet they do their job as well as their fathers did. god bless them.

  • Hey fuckhead there helping out the real Iraqi citizens to get a goverment. Just like French helped us in the 16th century, but it wasn't as bad it is in Iraq

  • haha if we're not getting shot at we're either sleeping or playing video games

  • God bless all the men and women who protect me and my country! THANK YOU!!!

  • DavidRepp: What, no love for the Sapper Platoon? Those National Guardsmen ran the show in East Ramadi. Who found all of the weapon caches? The Marines? The 3ID? The 101st? No. It was 28 civilian soldiers who ran back to back missions and still managed to rotate for force pro. Shooting and capturing insurgents is all good, but taking motars, RPGs and IED components out of their hands is what won the city. No love for the work force.

  • Calm down. We are all brothers. No one get all the credit they deserve. But you are right.

    U.S.M.C.

  • Good video. It's just sad that people won't learn from history until there is so much damage done by our enemies. God Bless from someone forced out by the liberal's budget cuts in 91. Semper Fi!

  • good job Mormon hunk

  • 20,057 Insurgents dead, 25,800 prisoners. 80% Bagdad violence drop. 55% drop in Car bombs, roadside bombs, assasination attempts, secretarian killings, 68% drop in U.S and coalition casualties!!!! TO all the liberals who put there little uneducated responses up here. Look at what is happening. The oil thing oil will do for us is give reperations and compensate loved ones killed or wounded.

  • Amen man

  • Lastly our soldiers casualties are down 68%. Bagdad violence down 80%. 55% drop in assasinations, car and suicide bombs, executions, civilian deaths. 20,000 of the enemy killed and 25,800 prisoners. We have the enmy on the run. Once again shut up liberals and thank you 101st Division 506 Regiment and everyone else who defends freedom. God bless you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • and your source to this info is?

  • Yeah i'd like to know your source on this.

  • to RealD3AL. Shut the hell up. This is not about oil or making trouble. We were attacked and there is eveidence Sadam was helping Alqaeda. 528 canisters of Nerve and Mustard gas found in SOuthern Iraq in 2005, Ricin Gas Factory in Northen Iraq in 2003. No nukes found, but biological was found. So shut the hell up you liberal traitor.

  • Before you go ranting on you need to realize we gave them that shit.

  • fuck all of you, i support the troops

  • ohh ok what u know huuu??? i bet just shit.. well America is call the land of freedom GOD Bless America.

    GOOD job soldiers, and good luck free all this iraquis. just to get a taste of freedom.

    God Bless America
