Failed SEALs? This Green Beret Recruiter Said BLACKWATER!
Jimmy Watson’s experience transitioning from the military to a Private Military Contractor (PMC) role with Blackwater highlights a stark reality that many veterans faced during the Iraq War. After serving two deployments as a Marine Corps Squad Leader, Watson joined Blackwater, eventually moving up to the role of Team Leader.
Watson has spoken candidly about the harsh realities of the private military industry. He has explicitly broken down the corporate branding of "contracting" versus the ground reality of mercenary work, pulling back the curtain on how highly trained combat veterans were utilized as expendable assets in chaotic war zones.

The U.S. just built a new battle tank for the future of War. For 46 years, the M1 Abrams has been America's favourite battle tank, so they kept upgrading it until the Army's own generals admitted the design had hit its ceiling. With every new upgrade, the Abrams just kept getting heavier and heavier until, in September 2023, the Army cancelled all further work, including everything they had already paid for. What replaced it instead is the M1E3: the first Abrams with no gas turbine, no human loader, and no one sitting in the turret at all.
