A day in the life of an American Soldier. The personal passages of everything from family life to war.

And it’s here.


American Soldier says,

The first installation of many new things to come. I want all my viewers to know that I am not moving from the text form of Soldierlife. I am merely evolving to bring you a different type of media to experience from.

Some plans with this new content is to resurrect the book and put it into a picture/video format. I hope you enjoy the ride.

Mil-vlogs are here to stay!

NOTE: All footage was taken by me. That soldier is me as well….BOO!

    I will join the chorus. I will be waiting also. However, I do believe that we are seeing the next generation of news coverage as more and more realize the MSM gives a very slanted news.

    Take care AS, and keep up the good work.

    […] You all need to git on over to American Soldier’s website and check out his first teaser to a series of his war videos he’ll be posting. He has a account with YouTube that you can subscribe to, to catch his videos as they are released. […]

  16. JJ Says:

    That was cool. I do have a suggestion though… Rage Against the Machine’s “Killing In The Name of” is one of the most Anti-American songs out there. Doesn’t seem to do the video justice.

  17. cptkevin Says:

    Are you guys fighting a war over there or just screwing around? It is not wonder this thing is dragging on forever.. why don’t you guys fight the war and go home instead of F**ing around with computers.

  18. American Soldier Says:

    CptKevin,

    How are you doing?

    I’ve heard some interesting things about you. So let me start off and end off by saying go fuck yourself! You 1st Amendment peddling ignorant fuck.

    If you took the time to read my archives you will see where I am. I did my time in hell, how about you?

    I saw your comment over at Blackfive back towards me. I was in no way trying to question you or your service. I replied over at Blackfive.

    You and the rest of our military are the reason why we will win this war.

  20. Donna, Los Osos, Ca Says:

    can’t wait…thanks!

  21. Donna Says:

    AS,
    That is the coolest video! Kudos to you for a job well done and in the Iraq arena as well! We are so proud of you and of all of our brave men and women in uniform! :wink:

  22. gonzalez Says:

    what am i looking at in this video?
    hope next one is better.

    plus rage is outdated man.

  23. Bane Says:

    Way to tell that pussy, AS. What a REMF’r…I had to take a shower after stepping onto his ‘blog’.

    I love what you are doing here, good luck with it.

  24. Bane Says:

    I meant ‘that pussy kevin’…I doubt he ever was a captain, except maybe of the blowjob team.

  25. Joeblow Says:

    Love your blog so far. Just hope you and blog don’t become a patsy for certain ultra right-wingers. Stay in the middle, stay in the fight and come home alive.

  26. The Thunder Run Says:

    Web Reconnaissance for 10/02/2006

    A short recon of what’s out there that might draw your attention.

  27. JJ Says:

    hahaha! Way to put the boots to em’ A.S.

    CptKevin needs to take a chill pill and hefer down.

  28. Chad Says:

    whats an ultra right winger?

    and I like how joeblow basically said

    “don’t form any opinion of your own. be on both sides of the fence, and go wherever the wind takes you.”

  29. -[Medic]- Says:

    Wow, that was great…I really need to bookmark your blog, I stop by every once a while and then lose it in the shuffle. *bookmarked*

    Just a thought that I would prefer hearing radio chatter over music so feel free to turn the music down and the radio uo. :P Good stuff, can’t wait till the next one.

  30. Armywife Says:

    First off I would be wondering exactly if posting this would put you The Ten OPSEC Points and exactly how happy your commanding officer would be if he knew you were posting such videos. And the issues with getting little tennage boys thinking you are glorfying the war. I apologize this just seems disrespectful and immature posting these items.

    1. Don’t discuss future destinations or ports of call!

    2. Don’t discuss future operations or missions!

    3. Don’t discuss dates and times of when we will be in port or conducting exercises!

    4. Don’t discuss readiness issues and numbers!

    5. Don’t discuss specific training equipment!

    6. Don’t discuss people’s names and billets in conjunction with operations!

    7. Don’t speculate about future operations!

    8. Don’t spread rumors about operations!

    9. Don’t assume the enemy is not trying to collect information on you so he can kill you, he is!

    10. Be smart, use your head, and always think OPSEC when using email or phone!

  31. SS Says:

    i enjoyed watching the footage of a real life situation in war. The filming was creative, interesting, and real. By starting out with a soldier, you get a feel for where they stand in war, and what their duties are. The footage from a view point out of a gun, was very different. It almost made me nervous knowing that someone was aiming to kill something/someone, and you werer watching it happen. Students get a better understanding and reality of war by watching real footage. Not only is the background music serious, but the sounds of can be heard, and the captions make the film personal towards the viewer. The fimer/soldier wants you to feel as though you were at war, or ‘riding along.’ This clip definatly draws the viewers attention!
