Former Delta Force Operator tells crazy Iraq/Afghan stories on podcast

Chris VanSant, a retired 20+ year Special Operations Veteran. Mr. VanSant’s service includes time in the 75th Ranger Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division, the 82nd Airborne Division, and 11 combat deployments as both a Team Member and Team Leader in 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (Delta Force). During the latter part of his career, Mr. VanSant held the position of Soldier Systems Commodity Chief, then as the Deputy Chief of the G8, Force Modernization Office, for 1st Special Forces Command. Mr. VanSant retired in 2015.

Dayum, dude sounds really cerebral compared to some other interviews I've seen where guys have PTSD kicking in every 5 seconds. Here are some of the best ones:

How they caught Saddam Hussein:



Wild mission in ****lia ends up with Naval Gunship getting in on the action (lulzy ending):



Intense gunfight on the rooftop alongside SAS soldiers



How he got kicked out of Ranger Regiment



9 minute Hostage rescue mission

I was friends with a ranger, guy sadly passed away from cancer. He once said they used to shoot muslims during their prayer because they always faced a certain direction so it was easier that way.

Listen to SRS all the time. He has some ****ing extreme dudes on.

The Chris VanSant episode is good, the Kyle Morgan episode (#041), Cody Alford (#034), Mike Ritland (#005).

The Kyle Morgan episode is actually ridiculous. That dude went through some ****, like wild. The Mike Ritland episode is good, just because Mike Ritland is a ****ing stud super intelligent, great story teller and has his own podcast that I like better than SRS.

Yall did the right thing when you signed up to fight the bad guys. Its the leaders at the time who misused their powers.

Securing oil would not be enough to put American troops in another country. Only 911 would have suffice. And what do you know.

Aweir.

Watched the episode a few weeks and it was really good. Check out Shawn Ryan's episode with DJ Shipley who was SEAL Team 6 guy. That episode is also really good.
