This is definitely the most requested video I have had. Rightfully so because the history of Reconnaissance and Marine Raiders are so intertwined it can leave someone feeling a bit confused, I have your back. Not only does this video give you my military history, it also gives you the history of Marine Recon and Marine Raiders (MARSOC), the requirements to get into both units, and also some very sound advice from other Recon and Raider Operators. So get some popcorn, grab a notepad, and put your feet up. Enjoy!

This is a four year old educational video about the USMC Recon vs. Raiders for the military buffs, Marines, any other service and anyone thinking of joining. Overall a good presentation on how it works.. 

Nick was a Marine Recon and Special Operations Command. Today he owns gym outside Camp LeJeune North Carolina.

Here is his channel in case you are interested.

I had a classmate who was in MARSOC. He was a scary dude back then. He got scarier. Now at 60, he is back to “just scary.” Great guy.

Haha! That’s funny.

I had 2 friends that were Marine Recon back in the early 1990s. I use to work with them on a routine basis, and it was a brutal workout.

Anyhow, I know what you mean by scary. Haha! Although they were fun guys for sure.
