The channel behind the shop

SpecialOps6 began as a YouTube channel and still is one. About 19,000 people follow it there and nearly 40,000 on Instagram, and a few new pieces go up most days: an operation, a unit, or one person's story.

Many of those stories are about people who did not come home. Darrik Benson. Mark Carter. Gary Gordon and Randy Shughart. John Chapman. Names that mean everything to the people who served with them and nothing to anyone else, which is the whole reason for telling them.

What your order does

The channel and the shop are the same operation. What you spend here keeps SpecialOps6 running, and SpecialOps6 is what puts the stories out.

Buy a patch and the next one gets told.

The stories stay free

Nothing on the channel sits behind a paywall and nothing is going to. Watching costs you nothing. The shop is here for the people who want to carry the mark as well as read about it.
