Thank you for sharing these stories, keeping them alive is so important. My great uncle survived The Battle of the Bulge and D-day, but was killed in Operation Varsity less than six weeks before the war was declared over. He was in a glider in the 17th Airborne Division and was shot down over Germany. He wrote my grandpa, his older brother, four weeks before and asked him to try anything he could to get him out and somewhere safer (my grandpa was a captain at the time) because he knew he wasn’t going to make it out alive. There was nothing to be done, so my great uncle sent his most treasured possessions to my grandpa in preparation. What a remarkable history these men have.
Thank you for documenting and sharing the D-Day invasion. Hopefully you’ll be able to share these experiences with Jr. High & High School students. 🇺🇸
Visited Juno and Gold beaches yesterday with my Wife and Children. Its a heavy area and we are eternally grateful to all who gave everything for us. Not just on the beaches and the advance into Europe but everyone at home living in limited means and uncertainty about loved ones. Thank You
The town I live in, Bedford, VA lost 20 men on D-day. They were all members of a National Guard unit that hit Omaha Beach. The National D-day memorial is located here. Thanks for remembering D-day.
Excellent as always. Be safe, have fun, and God Bless America. 🇺🇸
Thanks guys!
2:00 they did indeed jump in at night - terrifying thought seeing as button compasses and paper maps were the means of navigation for most lol
39 minute mark had me rolling. I was on a Jump at Fort Lee. My buddy Nelson went out on a long red light doing a tailgate Hollywood jump. It was hilarious.
Loved this podcast! Evan i love the Beyond Black BRCC coffee! keep it up!
Our unit went in 2003. Tried to do the jump but couldn't because of high winds. Another plane had a small window to jump to avoid winds and went for it. A lot of that chalk got hurt. Broken collar bones, concussion and landing on roofs, poles on the ground etc. I say all that because that dz will get small real quick with high winds. I hope you guys get the perfect weather to do it.
Great episode!! Ty.
Thank you.
Having taking a motorcycle trip to Normandy last year september. Just driving around the area alone puts all the fighting in a different perspective. Also standing in a model of one of those landing boats at the Utah beach museum, then imagine that door opening with heavy machine gun fire........ Then standing in a mock up of one the glider planes, they were not build for Dutch height. My 6'4 ass could barely fit in it while being heavily crouched down It might be a bit of a detour but in Belgium there is a museum, with a few miles of the Atlantic wall defenses/bunkers preserved. From a technical stand point is quite amazing to see what they all set up
The ford plant in my home town was also converted into a glider factory during the war. If you ever happen to be in the upper peninsula of Michigan and want to see a complete restoration of one of those gliders stop by the historical society in a town called iron mountain. Its on the top of the hill right by the cornish pump.
Thank you Kim-Jong-Poon, Very Cool!
Loved when yall started talking about airborne school haha, I’m here now, jump week next week.
One of the most moving experiences I’ve ever had was standing on Omaha Beach on the 75th anniversary of the invasion and watching the sunrise.
Great stories, thanks for sharing.WW2 guys are the greatest generation.
Love the channel and what u guys are doing!! FYI..C-47 was all aluminum, no fabric.
You men are such good I'd say a role model, but I feel like a role is acting. You guys are great life models. Meaning you just do it, right. I believe in everything you do and I agree with everything you guys say about where our countries headed and how our military is in danger of becoming extremely weak. I love what you guys do I really respect it and I know you don't read the comments back.Bless you all

I hope Tim does the grease infill!! That wound be epic
Why is it ,that not one podcast, has ever talked about musical shows,bands,country, and rock, in a war
My grandpa was a paratrooper in Vietnam, He was stationed somewhere overthere working on bases instead of being used in combat. So my grandpa who signed up never saw combat as a paratrooper, and instead they drafted people who didn't want to go. He died in 2002 before I was born, so I never got to here any of his stories from him and his buddys in Vietnam.
we were at the air force museum and my wife pointed out how manly you'd have to be to be flying most of the older stuff
Like being a cigarette going out a car window at 100mph lmao. That’s facts!
I love BRCC! But bit annoying there isnt one in the UK. Franchise? 🤔 lol
When you go to France, it would be awesome for you guys to show some WW1 American monuments. Specially Belleau Wood.
Are you thinking of the wooden gliders they used?
Will you guys be wearing vintage abn uniforms during your jump
Link up with Carl Erickson from Tactical Rifleman out there, get him on the podcast and Steve Holland 5thGroup legends
Good ole Palatka lol
TY Guys🩵
Tim will swim it. Its just another cold plunge for him.
🤙
Hell yea brother
I've never heard of a c47 made of canvas.....
🇺🇸✊🏼
I want to go so bad
❤️👍🏻🥃🇺🇸
RIP BRCC you fooled a lot of us.
Hoping you guys dress like the filthy thirteen for that jump. How epic.

Why do you donate to ActBlue?
Why are you offended by someone who has a different opinion
I know the'yre american but they really need to research history properly.
Hey dudes, yall gotta make a video talking about whats going on with all that money your donating to the democrats.
Hey dude they can do whatever they want it’s a free country
@@williamstocker584 why lie and act like conservatives? Then directly contribute to sleepy joe? Hypocrites if it’s true
It was just a few employees that donated back in 2022, not the actual company. Which in a company of around 1,000 employees so might be democrats 🤷♂️
Donating to Act Blue? Weird.
Not really they can do whatever they want it’s a free country
And then consider how good the U.S. Troops had it. 75% of the wermacht was destroyed in Russia. Can our country and our military endure the level of casualties and misery experienced by contemporary nations.
Explain donations in 2020-2022 to act blue or you will lose support. All you do is block people asking this question on twitter
Stop getting offended by people who have different views
@williamstocker584 can't pretend on the joe rogan podcast to be some sort of conservative, all American made company, supporting the "American way of life" while simultaneously donating to a party who seeks to censor Americans, pack the supreme court, not looking out for American interest, instead Ukraine, Isreal and illegal immigrants concerns come first. I have no problem if they want to come out publicly and declare they support the Democrat party but don't hide under the guise that they are somehow a supporter of the conservative party.
Why did BRCC donate to the DNC multiple times?
You probably don't actually care but just in case you do 1. Because Evan lost a bet in which he had to donate $500 of his own money to the DNC and 2. Because the guys are friends with Tulsi Gabbard and in order for her to get on the debate stage her campaign needed to raise a certain dollar amount so he donated to Tulsi's campaign which led to her absolutely destroying Kamala Harris during the debates. Not that it ended up mattering considering sleepy creepy Joe picked her as his running mate.
That is an excellent question.
Evan donated twice not brcc. Once $200 to Hillary when he lost a bet and once to Tulsi because he thought she was killing Hillary at debates and didn't want her to get knocked out because no one else was calling her out and 2 because she was a veteran. Dude this was covered like 4+ years ago when it happened and if you think a few hundred dollars from his PERSONAL pocket effect a campaign where millions are donated by billionaires and pacs you're a special kind of stupid
Because they’re fake two-faced. They’re liberals selling to conservatives. 🤦🏼♂️Hafer has repeatedly donated to ActBlue. The records and information is out there for everyone to witness.
How recently?
Ok, andy stumf, mike glover, tim Kennedy and jocko are all Patriots, but lets get some new guests. Same shit on every podcast. Its just Podcasters interviewing Podcasters at this point
Who isn't a podcaster nowadays?
