UPDATE: Hear behind-the-scenes info and Ramadi vets’s takes on the episodes below, here on “Pat Dollard’s Killer Christmas Show” on Blog Talk Radio.



UPDATE, Christmas Day, 01:09 – There are now a large and small high-quality version. The smaller one is best played on iTunes, and plays stunningly on in iPhone. Here, both play with a little bit of stutter due to the flv conversion. I CANNOT RECOMMEND STRONGLY ENOUGH YOU NOT WATCH THE EMBEDDED VERSIONS HERE, BUT THE TRUE HI-DEF VERSIONS FOR WHICH THE OFF-SITE LINKS ARE PROVIDED BELOW.

UPDATE: Instead of slogging through everything on my own as usual, Big Hollywood has picked up all 10 episodes of the series for wider distribution, and have assigned their “tech genius” Darren Rush, to get these converted and in shape in full glorious hi-definition so you don’t have to watch the version like the one here (though Episode One doesn’t look so bad). We start work today. Thank you Andrew Breitbart and John Nolte.

Episode 1, if you didn’t see it, is below Episode 2.

$1000.00 Platinum Deluxe Annual Membership

$500.00 Gold Deluxe Annual Membership

$200.00 One Time Annual Dues

$20.00 a month, recurring:

$20.00 One Time One Monh Payment

Episode Two, “Weekend At Horea”

To watch it off-site, in true hi-def, just click here. If you have trouble with that, just watch one of the inferior quality embedded .flv versions below.

Episode One “Return To Ramadi”:

To watch off-site in true hi-def, just click right here. If you have trouble with that, just watch the inferiror quality .flv version below.

    I DID NOT ENJOY THIS AT ALL. PLEASE PULL IT DOWN

      TOUGH SHIT JIHADI!!! :gun:

    • http://patdollard.com Pat Dollard

      Sure, and I’ll just erase all the time I spent in Iraq as well. I’m cool with everyone’s opinion, but just erasing something that was as tough to film, live through, and get out, is a bit much of a request.

      Again, this copy is like shit in terms of the video, a pristine hi-def version is coming.

    • SgtJenz

      Hey nfdel go away. Nobody forced you to watch it. If you don’t like a dose of reality fuck off.

      Is there any means of tracking nfdel’s location in the real world?

      Pat,

      5 years ago today, at approximately 1:20 PM Iraqi time, my oldest son, LCpl. Eric Dean Hillenburg was killed in action on a roof top in Fallujah, Iraq.

      I don’t like it! But the world needs to know the truth and those fine young men and women need someone to tell the world that truth!

      Keep up the good work – and keep telling their story and yours – so that people never forget true heroism and the real cost of our freedom against any and all suppressive/oppressive forces.

      Miss you son…I’ll see you soon on that Golden Street, we’ll eat from the Tree of Life together and dip our toes into the Crystal River in God’s glorious city. Thank you for those enduring last words to your mother and I: “Merry Christmas.” It is not as merry without you as it would be with you, but we will be together, Mom, Evin, Erin, and the rest of the family, including four grand-kids! Eric Dean, your brother named him after you, and Kloe’ Ev’s step-daughter, Erin will have her two, Adler and Aubrey and we will tell them all about you, our hero.

      I do miss you son. We love you with all of our hearts. Have a Merry Christmas in Heaven.

      Semper Fi to all your brethren in and out of the fight.

      And nfdel:

      If you can’t handle the truth then get off of this site and find a panzy site that will fit better around your panty waist.

      Peace be with you, your wife, your son and family now and into eternity. I am sorry for and truly honor your loss. I owe my time on earth to the brave souls that provide my freedoms, for that I am eternally grateful and vow to preserve that for which they have fought for.

      God bless and Semper Fi

      Dr. Jerry

      I hit Falliujah about a week after your son was killed. As I’ve writeen before, it was the place I came to be certain of the existence of God, the place I fully and completely found an absolute belief in Him within the first five minutes of setting my feet on the ground, because I knew the devil himself had literally just been there. Nothing intellectual, no thought processes that led to this epiphany, it was sudden, random, a compelling and all-consuming sensation and bolt of light in my head. I wasn’t even looking at some particular horror, it was just…a thunderbolt realization that interrupted my thoughts instead of flowing from them.

      I then witnessed and learned of the evil that your son and his fellows had cast from the earth.

      Heroes are cast into a light they create by wrestling darkness to its death.

      Thank you to your son, all the Masrines, and your family. Heroes, one and all.

      Dr Jerry.
      My heart is with you. Some day I hope you will share who your son was and how he lived life. I lost my son in Iraq also.

      I agree with you, Pat’s Documentary is important and everyone needs to see it. If it makes just one more person understand this is real evil we are fighting and it’s not a video game, there is no pause or restart button, then his work has accomplished much.

      We also need to remember these men who fought and died but most importantly we need to honor our Fallen by taking care of those still fighting and those who come home.

      Be Blessed

      nFidel,

      what you don’t enjoy about it is the fact that the video is the real truth, raw, uncut, unfiltered, and mostly, not from a liberal ‘journalists’ perspective. That would the agenda-driven libs that are reporting from their hotel rooms, and back stabbing our troops.

      “You can’t handle the truth”

    • http://HBCIndy.com Dr. Jerry

      Angelia (Knottie),

      Sorry for your loss. Christmas brings it all out boldly again. Our sons are what made this nation what it has been, the greatest nation on the face of the earth throught this earth’s existence. They were men of renown and honor. They are the true definition of a hero. We must continue to honor them well.

      We must also remember that there is a Deliverer who delivered them from this world to the next in a instant of time. As the Apostle Paul proclaimed, in II Corinthians 5: 8 “We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.” In an instant our sons were rescued from this untoward world and delivered into the Glory World of Almighty God! Never another pain, never another fight, never again to face the scourge of death…eternal life was their’s.

      The Book of the Revelation 21: 4-5 gives us tremendous insight into that blessed land: “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And He said unto me, Write: for these words are ture and faithful.”

      There they are! In the Land where God makes all things new! And one day, we shall join them in the eternal celebration!

      And that is also what Christmas is all about: Jesus, who came as a babe in Bethelem’s manger to provide a way into God’s eternal life and He did so by the sacrifice of Himself upon the cruel cross. Then His subsequent resurrection from the dead gives us the guarantee that we too shall have eternal life in His eternal Kingdom.

      Angelia, have a great Christmas and share with my family the hope of joining our heroic son’s in the glory of heaven one day soon.

      Merry Christmas to all and God bless our troops in the field or out, in the fight or preparing to go. And may He richly bless every veteran of every branch this Christmas.

    U.S. vehicles are burning in the distance.

    Look at the tree in the foreground, on the right side of the screen, just to the left of and half way up the tree, I’m seeing some sort of evil death face or something. :shock:

    Does anyone else see that?

    • http://patdollard.com Pat Dollard

    • http://patdollard.com Pat Dollard

      No bullshit, look to the lower right of the one at the top, and there’s another face that looks just like Obama’s.

    • 0311inOHio (I didn’t drink the kool-Aid)

      Yep.. Also, very top in the smoke just to the left of the pole and just a frame or two prior to the 11:52 mark there is a face looking down to left as we view it. Indeed… Creepy.

      Merry Christmas everyone and God Bless the Marine Corps and Pat Dollard.

    And again, I can’t emphasize how much the soon-to-be-posted hi-def version is really the one to see.

      yea, they dont make ‘em like this anymore, Reagan, Patton… the leftist BS has prevailed over the common sense, how long till people will learn not to step into the same hole again and again. wasn’t the last century a good enough example of what not to do, especially when conversing with KGB regimes. cant give out handouts, they will bite the whole hand off that feeds them. communism and its leftist passive-aggressive surrogate is a cancer of this planet. we are overdue for an oncologist.

  • nick

    THESE VIDEOS NEED TO BE PUT IN ALL SCHOOLS AS MANDATORY VIEWING. IF THAT GAYS ASS INCONVENIENT TRUTH WAS PLAYED, THIS SHOULD BE. THESE VIDEOS ARE BRINGING SOME OLD RAMADI MEMORIES BACK. EVEN THOUGH I AM IN THE ARMY, WE STILL BLED FIGHTING NEXT TO THE MARINES. MARINES WILL ALWAYS BE MY BROTHERS.

      Thank you and may God bless you with comfort and joy and the power of His Spirit. Hold on to eternity as you are and keep on spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
      He lives, He reigns and He is coming back to crush those who oppose Him, the evil Saddam Huessin types. And then, and only then will the Soldiers
      (read Saints) who defend freedom be able to experience the peace they have insured me.

      Thank you for your testimony to the Spiritual experience you’ve had. It is a powerful weapon.

    Pat,

    I’ve finally had the opportunity to start viewing these vids. This is fucking phenomenal work! :beer: A tribute worthy of our nation’s best.

    In other news, I’ve been consulting the Army recruiters, under the impression I’m more likely to get a dairy waiver with them, as opposed to the Marines. My days in Hokieland come to an end in May. No matter what, I want to serve and defend my beloved nation in the Armed Forces.

    We Virginians can’t wait for McDonnell to assume office. This man of honor (a retired Army LTC (and father of an Iraq vet daughter)) and conviction (stuck to his guns on his conservative stances, should serve as the template for all other conservatives considering political office. If he gets his way, he will capitalize on the energy resources available within the Commonwealth, and off her shores. :beer: BOBS 4 JOBS!!! :beer: I can say with firsthand knowledge, he won over more than a few misguided dems, as well.

    Keep it real, and keep the faith.

    • Gaige Mosher

      Lucky bastard. I begged and pleaded for a medical waiver, but my condition is “permanently disqualifying” from ALL the services.
