Raising a SEAL Team Six DEVGRU Operator. DJ Shipley, Part 8. Father to Pakistan, Son to SEAL Training. (2024)

My late neighbor Raymond Andreson CWO-2 Ships Boatswain retired with 20 years in 1959. In 1968 The Navy recalled him back on duty for service in Vietnam. He was told that he couldn't hit sailors for scewing up any longer. He didn't agree with that. He said when a sailor got a black mark on his record. He got an attitude and just got out of the Navy next chance he could. Wasting all the time and training. He believed even the worst sailor after getting thumped behind the bulkhead a couple times would straighten up and become a good sailor. He was old school Rock and Shoals Navy and meant it.

Loving this series, Senior. Keep at it!

Blizzard recovery tip,
.If your car faced into the snow ,open the hood and see how much snow is inside the engine compartment. At worst ya cant see the motor at best a radiator full of snow
Only use gloved hands so as not to break anything. Clear the air intake and a good chance it will start.
Once running DO NOT SHUT OFF . Close the hood ,Let it run and build enough heat in the engine bay to compleatly dry the motor .
Without this step the snow will melt and turn to ice when ya shutdown . Hood release , throttle body piviots and Who knows what the ice will dick up but ya can skip it with a hot,dry ,motor.

Was that Incident in Greece around 96-98, seam to remember one of the Teams comming through they passed in and out all the time. We supported them when they came through. One Team can't remember number 8 was in and out a lot,but so was 4 and two. One team had some Trouble in town.
As for Iridium phones I hated them. They sucked was using one around same time, was the unit mivement guy so I needed it to talk to higher directly. Calling from Iraq to Kuwait beack at Camp Commando sucked.

Good morning Everyone.

Incredible video!

Hope everyone has a great Saturday. To those expecting bad weather, stay safe if you're out in it.

Night all 😊

Good morning Echo Platoon!! Bomb cyclone starts at 0700 peaks at 1900. we used to call them a snow storm when i was a kid. The earth has a fever lol. Have a good day! 12F 100% overcast

Maybe you can go into what sort of happened with the fall out or idk if that is where these videos are going but it just blows my mind - life is to short to hold grudges. I really hope you guys reconcile and bury that hatchet and move on with life Don!

Jesse Watters: Why is Biden betraying us?

Amazing stuff! I respect the pride you had that special day as you certainly did your part. What age do you think he really saw his future? Great parents indeed!

Damn, no sigh of h yet. How many Canadians is he clubbing tonight ?? I don't think any of us are safe, remember h is making up for lost time. He said so himself earlier tonight !!

I’m waiting for the book to be written.

& aaronrazz- hey bro, you expecting to get much of this sh*t? Seems like we will get hammered here in southern NH. I loaded up with gas for the generator and told everyone to charge their devices. I am more concerned about the wind and power outages than the snow. It will be cold so that sh*t should be easy to move around. Based on the last track I saw, I think Don is even getting this sh*t at it may be worse for him. Crazy weather.

Evening all. All battered down here for the great 2022 Nor'easter. Expecting 2 feet of snow and blizzard conditions. But the weatherman always seems to be wrong. I will standby to standby!

I guess it's true when they say that it always skips a generation !! Anyone remember when these two were in charge...those were the days !!

I think it's their healthy competitive nature that keeps them on top and on point. North America has never been in better hands !! 🇺🇸🇨🇦

The Freedom Convoy is almost home, and Trudeau is no where to be found !! 🇺🇸🇨🇦

Awesome video Senior Chief. That’s the first time that I could hear you possibly get a little choked up at the end of the video. Thank you again for these videos.

I been watching your videos for yrs now. And these videos about you and your son. Is your best work, I can feel it, in my heart as you speak. Sometimes I get a tear in my eye. My Father was a USMC veteran and a policeman for 49 yrs. My Father drop dead of a heart attack last yr getting ready to report for duty. My Father and I had a falling-out over 18yrs ago and did not speak much afterwards. I did follow in his footsteps as a boy would. But I fell off track doing that time we had our fall-out. And I went a different way in life that he did not agree with. But I got back on track and came back better then I was before, but I was just as bullhead as my father, right before he passed away. I said to myself. sh*t on it. I was planning on going to visit my father and tell him ‘’ I am sorry please forgive me. I miss you Dad and want you to be in my life and see what I have and meet my Wife. But He died the next day I was planning on going to visit him. It is tearing me apart still till this day. Mr Shipley you remind me so much of my father it’s not funny.and now these last 8 videos have really touch my heart more then you know. I wish the best for you and your Family.

Off topic, we have the same fan. Best investment for SE Alabama

Good ending SEAL Senior Chief Don Shipley! You should be proud and I'm so happy you are.

Its really brave sharing your family's life with people you dont know. Its very interesting watching these videos. I just hope it isn't headed for a bad ending.

I did tear up a little at the end of this one. Thank you again for sharing this part of your life.

Happy birthday Diane ❤️

Enjoy your Friday night guys 😊

Good evening Everyone. Nice video Don. Unconditional love. You have his back. Edit. Please forgive me Happy Birthday Diane!!

Thanks for this!

Would someone please tell the moron in the white house, (yes the one that seems to have allot of scheduling difficulties) to stop with the whispering when he gets diarea mouth. We're not really listening so the whispering crap isn't going to mean much.

Lots of similarities--my sole surviving daughter (58 yrs old) has refused to talk to me for 40 yrs--except for 2 phone calls when she reminded me of what a lousy father I was--she was right but she also accused me of a lot of sh*t I was not guilty of (got that crap from her mother)--changed her name to her mother's maiden name--I have tried so many times to apologise to her but she won't even acknowledge my letters--I didn't abuse her physically/sexually, etc. but the psychological abuse of the constant fighting between her mother and myself must have taken a terrible toll on her. I know because both of my parents were alcoholics (as I turned out to be) and it took me years of counseling to peel the onion of my deep shame, anger and guilt related to that. Bottom line--I have forgiven myself and given my daughter to the care of God. I look at her picture in front of my desk and love her every day. I am at peace with that and that is why I can share this with all of you wonderful people. Last part of old Irish toast-"may God hold you in the palm of his hand".

Will See Wood Highschool, funniest high school name, a bit north of me

Present. Awesome video thanks!

rollin in

Thank You for putting this together Don. Helps to clear up some things and helps understanding.
Being there for your children pays off. One of my sons who I raised bye myself from 17 January, 1991 told me once, “Dad I know that you aren’t my real Dad, but you are my real Dad because you are always there for me”. Having 4 boys to raise bye my self, I was presented with problems much like you were presented with Don. Episodes with getting in trouble and run ins with the law. Drug and alcohol problems, anger issues with a runaway Mother and many many court appearances due to false accusations bye their Mother and her “friends” and her lover/boyfriend/ husband/leech. Cost me a lot but I have 4 outstanding men after everything.
I pray that DJ and you reconcile and become family again.

Whow !

We got in trouble and the words deployment was the answer to fix anything. So we deployed a lot 😂😂😂. Or they put us out in the kahuku Mountains until your uniform fell off you….
GARRISON BAD….Field Good.
