It was a good thing Delta Company stood their ground against the enemy onslaught. If they didn't, their base would have been overrun.
Yes indeed. Remarkable how the staunch few will carry the day.
"Do not confuse your rank with my authority!"
Ahh yes, I've had this exact moment many times playing Rising Storm: Vietnam
"Get control of your man Colonel" typical words of an officer nicely tucked up, whist our boys were fighting and dieing I have no respect for him.🇦🇺
Whilst the movie definitely does seem to make him like that. The person who the actor is portraying doesn't deserve no respect.
Most of the highest ranking officers in the Australian Army in Vietnam were field grade officers in WW2. Indeed, the man you dismissed was an officer who started as a Lieutenant in 1939 and fought the Germans in North Africa and then the Japanese in New Guinea. He is amongst the men that the song describes as "ANZAC Legends".
A pissed off Digger is one brave fighting killing machine. One of the bravest fighting species in military history. Kudos and respect!!!
*thats big ol’ fat rain*
Now that is soldiering
this was an excellent movie, highly recomended for people who havent seen it. gives another perspective on the war aside from the USA vs NVA/Cong. filmography and acting is excellent aswell.
Totally agree . Best Aussie war film since Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence . What is needed is 2 other films to be made . One about the battle of Villers-Bretonneux in WW1 and one about the Coast Watchers in WW2
@@patrickdowdle9931 you should give “kokoda” a watch mate. Both acting and cinematography both much better than this movie. Probably greatest Australian war movie made. Another good one would be breaker morant however that doesn’t have nearly as much action.
@@patrickdowdle9931 I wouldn't mind something about Hamel as well. What Monash did there is worth recognizing. They could even do the battle itself in real time considering it only took 93 minutes.
@Patrick Dowdle I actually think this is one of the best war films EVER made (not just in regards to Aussie movies), the attention to detail/the real history/and Realism is almost unparalleled by most movie standards; the gunshots, the explosions, the practical effects, little to no use of CGI, accurate depiction of events, realistic small unit tactics and proper radio communication, it's all phenomenal, and as someone who was in the Marines I appreciated the hell out of it 👏
I randomly stumbled on the movie by happenstance one night when I was tripping on acid, bleeeeew me away 🙃
I loved the ANZACs working together against all odds.....
just like Canadians, its all or nothing and you dont leave your boys
I know a person who lives in our town who fought in this movie in real life
Ragnar Lothbrok a warrior to the end no matter what era he is in
Never truer words spoken, in battle to a faraway HQ
True ANZAC reply
That’s the digger in them
R.I.P Harry "ratcatcher" Smith
True legend and warrior
That moment when Major Harry Smith became an Australian war hero
I've been patiently waiting for this movie to be teleased here in the Philippines. Hope they'll do it.
Did you get to see it?
You train your men to be loyal to each other - it is key to their survival. It is to be expected that they will defy command if it means abandoning their brothers. "We all come back or no-one comes back."
Consider for a moment that the "officer" bringing the charges against the SAS currently has never fired or faced a shot in anger. Makes these guys look good.
That music is haunting.
my dads mate was the military advisor of this movie
This is such a typical Aussie soldier's response to his commander , who orders him to retreat against an enemy
Not so much about a retreat, ANZAC's would retreat if a situation called for it. What ANZAC's generally not do is leave their mates behind or let them down.
Best part in the film true Australian
You tell em Ragnar!
Good on him ! I used to tell off my flight leuitenant in my raaf days but not the c/o he was respected and a friend of my father's Jim flemming!!!
Big Respect for this Courageous and Determined Major. Just asking what is the Music in this Specific Video?
Oh shit it's Ragnar. I had no idea Travis was in a war film
Colonel, "Withdraw!"
Delta One, "Make me!"
Ragnar Lothbrok
Hopely it would present in HBO....
An example for the Americans...
1:05 Gonna have to go out there in the actual $hit yourself pencil pilot, if you wanna "get control of your man".
Brigadier Oliver Jackson, DSO & OBE. No pencil pilot, he fought in North Africa, Syria, New Guinea, Korea and Vietnam.
Bloody sounds like an Australian....😉
😂😂😂
Ragnar Lothbrok
The officer in the background was a coward, he would rather ensure his safety, over the safety of his men.
Look, while I agree he is making an unpopular opinion it's a lie to say Brigadier Jackson was a "coward" given his performance in four wars.
He was not a coward by any means.
He had intelligence that this was a diversion to draw out the reserve company & armour while a larger attack descended on the Task Force Base itself with no one but A small SASR group and support staff left to defend it.
He had no way to know that this was the attack meant for Nui Dat Itself until much later when he did finally commit the reserve company & the APC’s
Aussie Hal Moore.
KING RAGNAR
Just for accuracy sack, the Aussie’s had M16’s?
Did America loan them or what exactly?
Australians bought them and had been using them even before this battle, both the Australian Army Training Team Vietnam advisors and 1RAR. Australian Battalion Commanders, Company Commanders, CSMs, Platoon Commanders, Platoon Sergeants, Scouts, some signallers and medics carried M16s. Riflemen carried 7.62 SLR, section commanders and some signallers and medics carried 9mm Owen sub machine gun.
Ragnar lothbrok ❤
King Ragnar
God Bless the ANZAC soldiers! But why did they get involved in our stupid war? Poor bastards. When I see their WWI & WWII graves in France, I always ask them, why did you come so far to die?0
you complete your mission and everyone maybe able to cone back alive
don’t complete your mission well you and your mates get fuckin killed
Ragnar Lothbrok: Fuck your orders
why are they using m16s ?, the ANZAC didn't use the FN FAL?
OC’s and platoon sigs also carried M16’s due to the extra burden of an 77set...
Except they did.
The Australians used the L1A1 SLR made at Lithgow Small Arms Factory, based on the FN FAL. When on patrol 'Point' ( the guy at the front) also used the M16 as well as No.2 on the GPMG M.60 because he carried extra belts of ammunition, a spare barrel and heat proof gloves for changing it. Though l have known veterans who preferred the SLR and carried it in these roles, with 30 round 7.62mm Bren Gun magazines. Seems you can never go into a fire-fiight with too much ammunition was their mode of thinking. They all have fused backs now from lugging it all around the country.
