Everybody knows Sean Parnell, 27 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: but he was also at one point in time leading 28 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: men fighting in the mountains of Afghanistan. And I would 29 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: guess that's probably what we're going to talk about today, Sean, 30 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 1: take her away. Hey, how's it going, marine, It's a 31 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 1: it's a hey, Well, I'll tell you this, man. It's 32 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,199 Speaker 1: a heavier day today. And I don't usually have heavy days, 33 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: but this is one of those days. I just I 34 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: woke up, even on the way here to the studio 35 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: this morning, I was feeling it. I always feel it 36 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: this day. I know me too. You know, every day 37 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: is memorial day for someone who's served in bat and 38 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: lost brothers in the battlefield. Um, you know, I was 39 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: in Afghanistan for four hundred and eighty five days, the 40 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: longest combast deployment in global war and terror history. Eighty 41 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: five percent. Michaeltoons was wounded, some men were wounded twice. 42 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: I was also wounded, blown up by a rocket propel grenade, 43 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 1: and then hit two more times blown up by a 44 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: mortar after that. And you know, I always say, you know, man, 45 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: like I was lucky to come home. I barely made 46 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: it home, but I was blessed to make it. And 47 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: but the same that that's it's not true of a 48 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: lot of my soldiers. You know, many of them didn't 49 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,679 Speaker 1: make it home. And many of them, after coming back 50 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: from that hellish deployment, raised their right hand to go 51 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: back into the fire. Why Because our country is amazing 52 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: and it's worth fighting for. You know, we live in 53 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: the most extraordinary nation on the face of the planet. 54 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: It's not we are not a nation that that is perfect. 55 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: You know, of course we've made mistakes, but the recognition 56 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: that this country is exceptional and the freedom that we 57 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 1: have here is extraordinarily rare in human history, and that 58 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: is worth fighting for. It that's worth bleeding forward. That's 59 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: where it's dying for. And I would do it again today, 60 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: all over again if I had the choice. And you know, today, 61 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: Jesse is like what I tell people today is like, look, 62 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: we live in a free country. Man. You celebrate today 63 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: anyway that you want, because all of my men, you know, 64 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: I think about them every day and not the day 65 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: that goes by that I don't think about them. But 66 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: they would want Americans to enjoy their freedom. So go 67 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: for a walk in the beach, have a free you know, 68 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: have a freaking drink, you know, grill out with your 69 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: friends and family. But just take a second, just pause 70 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: one second early in the day. That's all I'm asking 71 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: to just recognize those that have given their life for 72 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: freedom so that we may have our today. And then 73 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: every day that you wake up and you draw breath, 74 00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: you live a life worthy of that great and ordinary sacrifice. 75 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: What were they like, Sean, the ones who didn't come back. 76 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: Were they when you first met them? Did you know 77 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: they were just these lions? Or did they just seem 78 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: like normal dudes and all of a sudden they turn 79 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: out to be terminator? They were just a normal guy. Yeah, 80 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: you know. One of the things I was, I was 81 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: a I was an officer, Jesse, you know what, I'm 82 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: sorry about that. Oh it's okay, can you hear me? No? No, 83 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: I'm no, I was saying, I'm sorry. You were an officer. 84 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I know you always give me, you always 85 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 1: give me hell about it. But you know, one of 86 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: the things I tried to do with my troops to 87 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: just get them, to get to know them outside the uniform. 88 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: And a lot of these guys they were just kids. 89 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: You know. The job before they were you know, carrying 90 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: a machine gun in Afghanistan was was freaking high school shortstop. 91 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: And I watched these kids do extraordinary things in the battlefield. Man, 92 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: it is like one trime for the human spirit after 93 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: the next. And you know, they're just normal kids from America, 94 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: from all over the country who just loved and appreciated 95 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: this country. And I think about them every day. Is 96 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: there anybody who sticks out to you, or any one 97 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: or two people's specific names to stick out to you 98 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: that that really hit home too many? Jesse, I mean you, 99 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 1: and I I mean our our nation. Think about it 100 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: like this. Man, I'm thirty eight years old. We've been 101 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 1: at war for twenty years all of my adult life. 102 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: The only the only thing that I've known in this 103 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: country is a nation at war. Think about that, and 104 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 1: I probably lost thirty plus friends that I loved dearly 105 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: on the battlefield, people who never came home, people who 106 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: I starved with and then went back into the fire 107 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 1: and didn't make it. And as a leader, you know 108 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: how this is, man, you fight like hell to try 109 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: to bring your men home alive, right, and then they 110 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: saddle up and they go back at it again. And 111 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: that you know, I was met, like you retired, you know, 112 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: six men killed in the next deployment, and it's like, god, 113 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: you know, what the hell? And it's like a very 114 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: heavy burden is being carried by a precious view in 115 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: this country, you know, and you know it's honestly, man, 116 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: it's impossible for me to just pick out one. They're 117 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: also special in their own remarkable, you know, highly individualistic way, 118 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: and each one, each loss is to blow to this nation. 119 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: That's I'm sorry. This nation and the men and women 120 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 1: who die for this country are our most precious natural resource. 121 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: And every time we lose one, it's hard to recover 122 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: from it. You know, Sean, I don't like it when 123 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: people do the you know, this next generation sucks. This 124 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: next generation's worthless thing, because, as I've always argued, that's 125 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 1: just looking at history with rose colored glasses. You know, 126 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: Moses was complaining about the next generation. I guarantee it 127 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: that's just the way it is. You know, there's these 128 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: next guys are soft and they always point out the 129 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: warriors of old. You know, I opened up today talking 130 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: about World War Two stories and they saw that was 131 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: the greatest generation. Buddy, that was a small percentage of 132 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: the population. We have the same percentage today out there 133 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: doing the same stuff. You're right, yeah, I look, I 134 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: totally agree with you. I had a guy Jeff Hall, right, 135 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: Jeff Hall was the E six Ranger E six one 136 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: day in Afghanistan in November, just before Thanksgiving, he assaulted 137 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: through two enemy lines and saved the marine who was 138 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: shot in the pelvis. His romoral artery retracted up into 139 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: his pelvis and he was bleeding to death. Jeff fought through, 140 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, two sets of the enemy line to 141 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: get to this guy. Let you know, brought in a 142 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: Blackhawk helicopter with a Jungle penetrator and got that marine 143 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: out of there. After in the firefight, by the way, 144 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: two hours long, we were trapped in the kill zone 145 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: trying to get this marine out. But Jeff Hall made 146 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: it through. And the first thing that this dude says 147 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: for me comes off the hill, right, because he let 148 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: this chart. He grabs me by my chest like one 149 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: of his end would do, and he says, and he says, sir, 150 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: you better not put me in for a reward for that. 151 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: I was just doing my job. And you know, we 152 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: got back, we got back. I just looked at him, right, 153 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: legend right, And then we got back from Afghanistan. He 154 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: went back nine months later and got killed. And it 155 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: just stuff like that just kills me. Man, every day. 156 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: It just sucks to think about. Another awful thing to 157 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: think about it. We've only got a couple of minutes left. 158 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: Here is the families, so many of these guys left behind. 159 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: Not just parents, I mean, we forget so many of 160 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: these guys. It's a wife, man, it's kids. And I 161 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: think about the kids all the time, more than I 162 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: ever did before, because I have mine, and you know, 163 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: every day narrow I'm in shoot.
