Samuel Reineberg - They Eliminated an Active Shooter in 4 Minutes | SRS #295

Shawn please check back on this kid on a regular basis. He's torn up.

Getting a medal for one of the worst days in your life is a really complicated feeling.

Shawn you are gifted in letting someone tell there own story without editing. i pray Samuel will find a level of peace.

Just that single gesture of respect by Shawn immediately putting on the hat for the interview vs just setting it aside speaks volumes on his character

His last image in this world was his cadets destroying an active terrorist that’s insane man! What a fucking warrior! God bless you guys! Shawn keep this guy around he needs a good father figure around boy needs a hug.

The Colonels Job was to create Soldiers...if the last thing he saw was his cadets tearing into the guy who killed him in an improvised fashion, led others to safety, and rendered Aid. A Job Well Done!

Shawn you were the right man to talk to this young soldier. God bless you both.

Brother, please make sure this kid gets some help. I've worked long enough in mental health to recognize some serious PTSD. He's wound so tight. Thank you for your service son. I feel like you would make any father proud.

Son we are all here for you! OIF veteran 11B so not a ninja but have fought my demons. 2 years ago I took over 70 benzos washed down with Irish Whiskey "I don't even drink". Sudden divorce after 19 years, were were in 101st together. I couldn't see my kids and play with them after work everyday like I always did, suddenly living alone in apartment from 5 acres on lake in retirement home I worked my career for. I legit had a near death experience, it was so real. During my passing I was at beach with the kids was perfect day building sand castle with my son and daughter, hearing seagulls and waves crash in. Suddenly my interpreter from Iraq started yelling my name "Last name". He once saved my life in Iraq and didn't have to- he didn't make it out but we jad swore to meet up after the war when it was over and just chill in peace finally with no raids, no IED, no rockets/ or mortars and all that shit. Shades appeared and begged me to come with him I wasn't ready for them yet and I would be back but i must leave that beach right then or we would all be in danger, I realized later maybe a spiritual trap or something. I couldn't stop balling and hugging them saying I was so so sorry and I loved them so so much. Tnen Shades ran and grabbed me and next thing was the Sheriff's and fire dept breaking down my doors. Someone called for a walfare check I had never once been late for work but was that morning cause I had passed and was brought back. I couldn't even walk for 3 days afterwards. You were there that day for a reason, you may never know why but your mission isn't complete yet, don't give up! We will all meet again, I saw this for myself I promise you! I am currently submitting for 501c3 status to hopefully save someone for trying what I did and improve the complete BS of a cruel system I experienced that was supposed to "help".. It’s going to be to us that makes the needed changes! Just don't give up bro! I am not former SEAL or Delta etc, but we ALL need someone still watching our 6, now even more than ever!! DM or reply back if you or anyone ever needs to talk. I was given a second chance. Oh and two months after i survived my attempt I was diagnosed with Leukemia fucking benzene in burn pit s. I was so confused I was brought back for that.. i fought and stable now, actually going running before work tomorrow am... keep fighting!!!!!
