i came here expecting some comments that would give some encouraging and informative words of wisdom. it's a shame a few can ruin such an incredible thing
4:22 I'm trying to remember what other documentary I've seen this guy in. Edit. Found him. See five minutes and forty-three seconds into this video about the MAW Cadre (he's the one gettting his har cut): ua-cam.com/video/MgUCydHBJLs/v-deo.html If he was in his mid-20s in that 1985 documentary, he's ge in lis late 40's in this one.
I was on the Same Wavelength as you when I saw this clip. I recognised him straight away. He spoke, as did others on the 1985 MAW ‘Behind the Lines’ programme, about their exploits in the 1982 Falklands War.
Been living in Australia for past 5 years im 29 now. Was thinking of returning home to UK and getting involved? Any advice on training? Too late? My cardio needs alot of work etc
I suppose you also believe that the Seals are better than the SAS? America has more money to spend on defense, but your army does not have the history and standards of the British Army. Oh,the Navy? More money so more ships that are technologically superior. So yes the US Navy would beast the Royal Navy now, but don't forget England's naval past (Trafalgar ring a bell?)And the same goes for the USAF. More money, But don't forget the British standards and history (Remember the Battle of Britain?)
Britian will always have the best military in the world. We don't have the budget of others or the numbers but one of our soldiers is worth 10 of anyone ele's. Uk>
and you think basic training is the ending of our training? all i know is you never see a fat royal marine (toughest training of any non special forces) our regular army even train longer than your marines.
no not know. Robin- what you refered to the British as- 'We are batman you're robin'. Okay maybe Ive got the wrong end of the stick, i apologise if thats the case.
“Just because you are a reserve force doesn’t mean you are any less professional than the guys that do it on a regular basis” Yes it does. it’s not a knock, it’s just a fact. You can’t be as professional as the professionals if you only do part time what they do all the time. That isn’t to say if they became full time they couldn’t be as professional. Ask any Royal Marine if the reserves are as professional and they will laugh.
Just remember these reservists have a job outside as well. So there doing this and much much more in there own time. That also means that there normal two week holiday. They will be at a training establishment of on exercise. Don't nock them.
@@jamesstilgoe8685 not knocking them I’m just saying that they are not as professional as the regular marines. Just as a marine won’t be as professional at anything they do part time compared to someone who does it full time.
I was repeating what you said, thats why it has quotes or '' above it! i didnt say we were anything. You said 'Robin?' so i repeated what you refered to the British as 'we are batman you're robin'. Did you not get taught English?
All i asked was a queston! the way you worded it, it looked disrespectfull to our marines. You call yourself our Batman, however I dont remember a time that Batman has went to war without needing Robin to bail him out.
lol m8 well just because you got a bigger force than us doesn't mean thats is better..batman is better than robin because he's better trained etc so were batman and you guys are robin because our forces are better trained...so were BATMAN lol PS i'm not trying to start a fight or anything like that
I know you did! You called the British robin i know! which is what I thaught sounded disrespectful, you need to learn better english, are you even american?
U guys, with our training is longer than yours so we are better! Stop! The bs ok. Basic is only! The beginning here we have marines combat training center. and army- marines counterinsurgency center. Moreover! Mountain warfare center. Uk and us are friends. We are batman you're robin.
Arrogant dickead. Uncle Sam's Misguided Children are not at the same standard of the Royal MArines. Your training and TTPs are crap. You just have more kit (WAY more than you actually need, in fact, which makes you soft!). Hence the Brit saying in relation to Yanks: "All the gear and no idea."
One of the best promo vids ive ever seen!
the guy at 0:28 is one of the marines from the arctic warfare cadre documentary in the 80's!
Benjamin Kershaw yess!!!

You should be fine if your a British citizen and the maximum age is 32 to join im pretty sure go visit ur local afco
Yes they do they are force reccon
If there are any regular marines who have been deployed with reserves reading this, how did you rate the reserves compared to the regular guys?
Spot on, just as much drive and dedication to the corps as regs.

@@Eudamonic Good luck, all the best. Ex Army
