The Marines need VTOL aircraft, including F35 jets, to support beach landings by having forward airbases on or near the beachhead. Especially when a carrier strike group is generally hundreds of miles or a thousand miles away. When minutes and seconds matter, a carrier’s fighter bombers are an hour away. The Marines have learned through horrific trial and error to relay as little as possible on the other branches of the military for critical support.
Pretty sure they had their own aircraft since at least World War 2. I know there was a USMC variant of the Corsair that was designed to operate from land bases and lacked the arrestor hook for carrier landings (and I think it didn't have folding wings either).
That just begs the question of why the Marines are operating so far from the navy force they are attached to. If the Marines are too far away from their attached ship group for support shouldn't what they are doing then be the Armies job instead?
@@SolusLupi The Navy doesn’t want to risk it’s multi billion dollar ships, by bringing them close to possible enemy guns and air assets. The further an enemy has to travel, the easier it is for the Navy to protect their precious ships. If a few Marines have to get fragged to protect their ships, well, so what?
@@TheAKgunner I looked it up to make sure and quite a lot of them were built or field modified for land operations with the hydraulic wing folding and arrestor hook removed.
The reason he climbed down the ladder is because arma’s climbing system is finnicky and trying to climb through the window has an equal chance of doing nothing, getting you inside or breaking your legs. He also climbed down because in arma a 6ft drop will also break both your legs.

The story of Eddie Gallagher seems like a single point in a massive trend - by what I hear , Fort Bragg has a problem with both disciplining and caring for its delta force members due to a combination of secrecy, selectivity, and rejection criteria (few get in, any mental/criminal record is grounds for ejection, and any action can be covered by a claim to secrecy) [See the recent article by Seth Harp, and the youtube podcast "Fort Bragg Murder Swamp"]

That G3 has an experimental recoil-dampening system that reduces the impact of inertia and gravitation forces on the weapon, keeping it perfectly stable and still. Hard to move while carrying it, tho.
It's hardly experimental! It was designed in the late stage of WWII as it was easy to produce without complex tools and after the war G3 and MP5 reached fame. AFAIK, it stretches the recoil and since the barrel doesn't move, it' good for marksmen. However, full auto is worse than gas operated designs as you have a lot of mass bouncing back and forth. The fixed barrel can make it easier to fix suppressors, but the ejection of cartridges is far from silent.
Marin Corps has their own Air assets because sometimes calling the Navy for support is like pulling teeth. Other times you call for fire and the Navy deletes a square from the map.
In regards to the ladder usage, quite likely the only reason the guy did not actually enter via the window is that arma does not really like that, unless you are running some specialty mods most windows are not able to climb through. Also, most players will scream if you say to toss a grenade in first, the game often ignores if you shot out the glass and the grenade would bounce back out at you.
8:47 I'm not sure if it's the same case I'm thinking about but basically Edward Gallagher got accused of stabbing a wounded combatant to death, later on it was confirmed that these were exagerations made by his lower ranks because they were mad at him (for a bunch of stupid stuff like not being able to keep up with him in patrols and shit like that), a local officer that witnessed the event confirmed that the guy was simply applying first aid, cutting the clothes to see if there were any wound and then doing a tracheostomy, the 4 assholes that reported him to NCIS exagerated the whole thing just because they were mad, and NCIS being a lot worse irl than in TV shows, full of people that just want to catch a big enough case to build their carreers took the bait and investigated the thing, iirc some of the people from NCIS in the investigation were very shady with taking other similar cases, basically it ended up being a "let's get this guy in jail no matter if he is innocent or not because he is a Navy Seal and this could make my career" Donut Operator did a video about this I think, explaining the whole thing
26:29 A JD Gator. My old boss had one come through for international shipping that was painted metallic purple with chrome rims and a custom sound system. It was going to Columbia. 100% it was ordered by cartel.
Basically the way the us military works, you have the army that has ground forces and their own aircraft, and naval transports. The airforce has ground forces and aircraft and satellites, and missile tracking ships. The navy has naval forces, ground forces, aircraft, and satellites. And the marines, a subsection of the navy has naval forces, ground forces and aircraft. Because separate branches = every branch acts as its own entity.
13:53 that's basically why everyone making a meme out of it, it's like the lawyer telling him to wake up in the middle of the night to apologize to the family, he put the black and white filter to make him look sadder

There is an easy solution to the soggy sandwich problem and that is to not utilize any “wet” ingredients like dressing or Mayo. You can apply the dressing or Mayo when you need to. That’s what I do and it works pretty well, granted, I eat my sandwich’s within a day of making them.
I put my sandwiches in a fridge all the time, because that's normally all I can afford and I have no where else in the break room I can put my food. Or no where else I have permission for. What you need to do, and this is a trick I've learned from the years, is to put something between the dressing to make sure they don't touch the bread directly. So example: put the mayonnaise between the cheese and the meat. and as long as the sandwich is sealed in a plastic baggy you're good, it'll taste just as fresh. You can also take this concept in reverse if you have a crappy bread. I put a little pickle juice on the bread, which made a tad soggy on one certain side after awhile and it tasted SO much better than what I was originally having that week.
It's probably not intentional, but given what big man potentially implied, and given what actually happened, this comment has comedic amounts of threatening aura.
It's because the USN admiralty is not interested in giving up deck space on fleet carriers for the dedicated air support and transport of the type the marines need to do their mission effectively.
"Who puts sandwiches in the fridge?" Well, put it like this. When one has to go up early (ca 4 AM) to go to work, you cant be botherd to take out all ingredients to make a sandwich. It takes time and is annoying when you are dead tired because you went to bed too late. Instead you make the sandwich the night before, chuck it in the fridge, and the in the morning, 30 sec on the toster and you have a nice "warm" sandwich with minimal effort. Time efficient and surprisingly good. I like mine with egg and kaviar.
The sheep you keep seeing on their patches is Shaun the Sheep, from a British stop-motion children's show of the same name, made by the same people who make Wallace and Gromit.
16:36 I may be incorrect, but that "relations" between US Navy and USMC have origins back to pre-WWII, when Navy and Army didn't want to give anything new to Marines ASAP (good example - check how mamy years after Army, Marines had M1 Garands). But as I read - it is (in theory) so complicated, that it is easy to get lost. Former war journalist from Korea (W.E.B. Griffin) wrote a series "Corps" where he points relationship between USMC, Navy and Army.
I’m honestly enjoying these, I like your little bits of input about your time in the military and just your general reaction. Edit: Also that Sheep, it’s Shaun? from Shaun the sheep. Fairly certain it’s the same animators as the ones from Wallace and Gromit?
The lamb patch is a reference to the popular Arma 3 mod LAMBS, iirc it's some kind of AI rework that makes the AI a (somewhat) competent enemy compared to the vanilla AI
The sheep patch in 11:58 is from "Shaun the sheep" same people who made Wallace and Gromit and I believe Chicken run as well. Just gonna throw that out there.
I feel like I just have to throw this out there. But the part about putting the sandwich in the fridge I'm totally with you on that. I don't see any reason to do that. I think its mostly because when I was a kid and would go on field trips with my school my mom would make my sandwiches the evening before so she wouldn't have to do it in the morning and then she would put them in the fridge to like "preserve" the butter or something and it fucking sucked. There is nothing worse than a cold ham sandwich when your in the middle of a field in the rain with a bunch of classmates you despise.
So i couldn’t find anything about the Louisiana National Guard but I did manage to find two stories involving planting guns on bodies. One which involved Australian special forces and another involving Bravo Company’s 3rd Platoon from Tacoma Washington.

"This is a common practice... destroy equipment before it falls into enemy hands" ... lets not talk about a country of terrorists that are rocking M4s with ACOGs...
I think the marines got their own air support after being left to take losses when the Navy or other support withdrew to go do things elsewhere. Or just refused to cooperate. I know there were some severe issues between the Marines and Army during the WW2 Pacific campaign. But don't know much military history so I could be waaaay off.
if you record with obs you can put desktop audio and mic audio in seperate track so you can mute desktop audio without muting your mic whenever copyrighted audio appear in editing.
If you are going on a trip and you got good bagles or bread like the quality stuff from an actual bakery then yes putting it in a fridge the night before isn't bad, just don't put any condiments just simple ingredients: cheese , ham, salami and nothing too wet or with too much moisture if you put greens in there as well. Wrap that shit in tin foil for best effect and viola.

[See the recent article by Seth Harp, and the youtube podcast "Fort Bragg Murder Swamp"]
Except for the fact that, you know, Gallagher was a SEAL.
I would like to hear a podcast on the Eddie Gallagher trial.
Same
Soon we will see the magnificence that is the Badgers! I'm really looking forward to that one.
Idea for Paul's Twitch Subscription animation: A cartoon Paul holding up a UA-cam Play Button while dressed as an MMA Fighter with an Army helmet on....oooh maybe a bandolier
Part 9 next!
THE BADGERS, THEY ARE THE BADGERS
@@Krokmaniak THEY FIGHT FOR FREEDOM (but mainly money)
THEY JUST ANNOUNCED A PARTNERSHIP WITH ISIS
So if Tiger Woods is already Asian, but nobody knows about it, does that make him a secret Asian man?
In the defense of the breacher with the ladder ArmA windows are weak against the bullet but if you try to leave or enter it's a stone wall
That G3 has an experimental recoil-dampening system that reduces the impact of inertia and gravitation forces on the weapon, keeping it perfectly stable and still. Hard to move while carrying it, tho.
It's hardly experimental! It was designed in the late stage of WWII as it was easy to produce without complex tools and after the war G3 and MP5 reached fame. AFAIK, it stretches the recoil and since the barrel doesn't move, it' good for marksmen. However, full auto is worse than gas operated designs as you have a lot of mass bouncing back and forth. The fixed barrel can make it easier to fix suppressors, but the ejection of cartridges is far from silent.
@@edi9892 That's cool information, but I was making a joke about the gun staying in place when he moved lol
@@godqueensadie I should have put the phone away when I'm tired...
Marin Corps has their own Air assets because sometimes calling the Navy for support is like pulling teeth. Other times you call for fire and the Navy deletes a square from the map.
'if you are willing to be soaking wet and covered in mud-' oh you mean a normal Tuesday in southern U.S
Favorite line for a coffee mug. At the base on the inside: ".... That's a problem."
Trial rant please! I'd love to hear you talk about it.
15:43
Damn, that's why I always wondered why were they called "Marines", which literally means to be found or related to the sea.
15:45 a desert is just a very big beach
You should have a key that says "audio jungle" and some the plays random musical notes and play them when a song starts to play
In regards to the ladder usage, quite likely the only reason the guy did not actually enter via the window is that arma does not really like that, unless you are running some specialty mods most windows are not able to climb through. Also, most players will scream if you say to toss a grenade in first, the game often ignores if you shot out the glass and the grenade would bounce back out at you.
8:34
A podcast on that would be really interesting!
I'm excited to see what you have to say.
8:47 I'm not sure if it's the same case I'm thinking about but basically Edward Gallagher got accused of stabbing a wounded combatant to death, later on it was confirmed that these were exagerations made by his lower ranks because they were mad at him (for a bunch of stupid stuff like not being able to keep up with him in patrols and shit like that), a local officer that witnessed the event confirmed that the guy was simply applying first aid, cutting the clothes to see if there were any wound and then doing a tracheostomy, the 4 assholes that reported him to NCIS exagerated the whole thing just because they were mad, and NCIS being a lot worse irl than in TV shows, full of people that just want to catch a big enough case to build their carreers took the bait and investigated the thing, iirc some of the people from NCIS in the investigation were very shady with taking other similar cases, basically it ended up being a "let's get this guy in jail no matter if he is innocent or not because he is a Navy Seal and this could make my career" Donut Operator did a video about this I think, explaining the whole thing
You gotta watch a video by a guy named Azeal, the vid is called “SWAT commander talks about his job in Vr Chat”. You gotta watch it
Knowing that somewhere in the middle east theres a JD Gator with a m240b pintle on the bed makes me very happy indeed
12:00 Yeah, that's one of the sheep from Shaun the Sheep. Definitely not one of the named characters, though, just a member of the herd.
26:29 A JD Gator. My old boss had one come through for international shipping that was painted metallic purple with chrome rims and a custom sound system. It was going to Columbia. 100% it was ordered by cartel.
Basically the way the us military works, you have the army that has ground forces and their own aircraft, and naval transports. The airforce has ground forces and aircraft and satellites, and missile tracking ships. The navy has naval forces, ground forces, aircraft, and satellites. And the marines, a subsection of the navy has naval forces, ground forces and aircraft. Because separate branches = every branch acts as its own entity.
13:53 that's basically why everyone making a meme out of it, it's like the lawyer telling him to wake up in the middle of the night to apologize to the family, he put the black and white filter to make him look sadder
They are well worth watching.
And a ZF operation isn't one. Without some cluster fuck happening in it.
No matter how international or unintentional it was or is.
Yess part 9 is coming near
So looking forward to part 9. It's the very best!
There is an easy solution to the soggy sandwich problem and that is to not utilize any “wet” ingredients like dressing or Mayo. You can apply the dressing or Mayo when you need to. That’s what I do and it works pretty well, granted, I eat my sandwich’s within a day of making them.
I want to hear more about that story.
Also part 9 hype!
I put my sandwiches in a fridge all the time, because that's normally all I can afford and I have no where else in the break room I can put my food. Or no where else I have permission for.
What you need to do, and this is a trick I've learned from the years, is to put something between the dressing to make sure they don't touch the bread directly. So example: put the mayonnaise between the cheese and the meat. and as long as the sandwich is sealed in a plastic baggy you're good, it'll taste just as fresh.
You can also take this concept in reverse if you have a crappy bread. I put a little pickle juice on the bread, which made a tad soggy on one certain side after awhile and it tasted SO much better than what I was originally having that week.
Soviet: *commits war crime*
MHGR: "Good job"
*patiently waiting for the new badger vid*
I can't wait
I, for one am interested on what you have to say about the Eddie Gallagher trial.
It's probably not intentional, but given what big man potentially implied, and given what actually happened, this comment has comedic amounts of threatening aura.
It's because the USN admiralty is not interested in giving up deck space on fleet carriers for the dedicated air support and transport of the type the marines need to do their mission effectively.
"Who puts sandwiches in the fridge?"
Well, put it like this. When one has to go up early (ca 4 AM) to go to work, you cant be botherd to take out all ingredients to make a sandwich. It takes time and is annoying when you are dead tired because you went to bed too late.
Instead you make the sandwich the night before, chuck it in the fridge, and the in the morning, 30 sec on the toster and you have a nice "warm" sandwich with minimal effort.
Time efficient and surprisingly good.
I like mine with egg and kaviar.
THAT SHEEP WAS A CHILDHOOD SHOW OF MINE HOW DID I NEVER SEE THAT
i think the sheep that you pointed out is from shaun the sheep, its a british cartoon for children.
i like how ge can parse through madness and give actual knowledge.
I think the lamb/sheep logo is the baby one from Shaun the sheep.
The sheep you keep seeing on their patches is Shaun the Sheep, from a British stop-motion children's show of the same name, made by the same people who make Wallace and Gromit.
I would absolutely listen to a video/podcast on that subject.
15:40 The reason for that is because they got halfway into the desert before anyone bothered to ask "Where does this beach end then?"
16:36 I may be incorrect, but that "relations" between US Navy and USMC have origins back to pre-WWII, when Navy and Army didn't want to give anything new to Marines ASAP (good example - check how mamy years after Army, Marines had M1 Garands). But as I read - it is (in theory) so complicated, that it is easy to get lost.
Former war journalist from Korea (W.E.B. Griffin) wrote a series "Corps" where he points relationship between USMC, Navy and Army.
I absolutely cannot wait for you to watch part 9.
nearly at the badgers!!!
Paul: The Marines have so much pointless equipment.
Marine: But VTOL cool though.
I’m honestly enjoying these, I like your little bits of input about your time in the military and just your general reaction.
Edit: Also that Sheep, it’s Shaun? from Shaun the sheep. Fairly certain it’s the same animators as the ones from Wallace and Gromit?
The lamb patch is a reference to the popular Arma 3 mod LAMBS, iirc it's some kind of AI rework that makes the AI a (somewhat) competent enemy compared to the vanilla AI
The lamb is Timmy from the show Shaun the sheep, a UK kids show
15:35 "sand on beach, We belong!"
The sheep patch in 11:58 is from "Shaun the sheep" same people who made Wallace and Gromit and I believe Chicken run as well. Just gonna throw that out there.
13:50 I don't know who this Scott man is, and I'm keeping it that way.
I would be fascinated to hear your take on the SEALs trial
I feel like I just have to throw this out there. But the part about putting the sandwich in the fridge I'm totally with you on that. I don't see any reason to do that. I think its mostly because when I was a kid and would go on field trips with my school my mom would make my sandwiches the evening before so she wouldn't have to do it in the morning and then she would put them in the fridge to like "preserve" the butter or something and it fucking sucked. There is nothing worse than a cold ham sandwich when your in the middle of a field in the rain with a bunch of classmates you despise.
14:11
No! You forgot the intensifying need to rub tears out of your forehead! I am not convinced!
So i couldn’t find anything about the Louisiana National Guard but I did manage to find two stories involving planting guns on bodies. One which involved Australian special forces and another involving Bravo Company’s 3rd Platoon from Tacoma Washington.
Your sandwich question really got to me
God damn fkn youtube removing dislike button other than that great video i always love you're soviet womble reactions! and mike burn fire aswell keep up the amazing videos!
Look into "rimmy down under gaming"
Fuster cluck
Donut Operator did a great video about the SEAL issue
I think the group you are talking about at 7:38 has a movie about it called the kill squad
Damn this is addicting we need more SovietWomble.
In the last Zach gun rant video you weren't going to say "UBL" but almost right at the beginning of this one you said his name when referring to the raid on his compound lol
"This is a common practice... destroy equipment before it falls into enemy hands" ... lets not talk about a country of terrorists that are rocking M4s with ACOGs...
You mean resistance fighters
With sandwiches, the trick is to use your oven to reheat them instead of the microwave. Same goes for pizza. Sogginess be gone. :)
I think the marines got their own air support after being left to take losses when the Navy or other support withdrew to go do things elsewhere. Or just refused to cooperate. I know there were some severe issues between the Marines and Army during the WW2 Pacific campaign.
But don't know much military history so I could be waaaay off.
if you record with obs you can put desktop audio and mic audio in seperate track so you can mute desktop audio without muting your mic whenever copyrighted audio appear in editing.
If you are going on a trip and you got good bagles or bread like the quality stuff from an actual bakery then yes putting it in a fridge the night before isn't bad, just don't put any condiments just simple ingredients: cheese , ham, salami and nothing too wet or with too much moisture if you put greens in there as well. Wrap that shit in tin foil for best effect and viola.
