RIP Master Cedric and Alain. We owe you for your service.
BTW, thank you for reminding their ranks ("Master" and not "Sergeants") because Cédric & Alain as Commandos Marine were sailors, hence "petty officers" and not "NCO's". In the French Navy, Army personnel are called " biffins" ( =rag peddlers) as opposed to the "chic" the Navy is supposed to retain.

As a former French parachute regiment sergeant I am thankful you bring these story to English speaking people. That’s a well executed tribute and it’s lovely you bring it to the attention of the world to see. Thank you.
Asymmetric Tactics greetings from 🇺🇸
Ouf ...vive les traducteurs en ligne. J'avais cru que c'était la mission qui avait été bien exécutée ...
The British SF say that the French are equal to them, that’s the greatest tribute anyone can get.
Every man an Emperor, Airborne forever.
From 82nd well said
Small moving note: the Hubert commando is made up of combat divers; during their dive, each member of a pair is connected to their teammate by a cord.
7:15 the coffins are connected by this cord (it still moves me so much)
I was wondering what that was, thanks for the imput!
An extraordinary detail, that looks innocuous to the uninitiated! Thank you for pointing it out ❤
We, Korean, never forget about this two men and their crow. We appreciate that.
Their crow ?

During the covid19 crisis, we saw what meant the words "never forget" for Koreans as they sent masks to the soldiers who fought during the Korean war.

@Jonny Karr what were the french and the american doing on African soil?
The ceremony at the end was very moving. I’m glad you included it 🤙
its even better with the ceremony music you can Watch it on youtube
There can never be a more fitting march as well.
tichoudrien yes and with a special bonus : at a moment, in a corner Nicolas Sarkozy sneekering in second line
I loved the match very unique these French matches 🙏 RIP
As a former US Army Infantry Officer (1978-88 - all during peacetime), I give praise and sympathy to Master Pierrepont and Master Bertoncello. May your families and friends realize that these heroes have been recognized, with honor, far and wide. RLTW!
I served four years with the French armed forces in Guyana, Djibouti, Gabon, Sénégal, DRC (Ituri, Goma), Qatar, Côte d'Ivoire, Guadeloupe, Martinique and CAR. Some of my best years and my heart goes out to the fallen commandos. I wanted to join this elite team but I failed the exam twice 😓😓😓
Hey, you gave it a shot. That in itself is an elite achievement. Hold your head up high.
Most of the people fail but only few have the motivation to retry and that deserve respect.
It's awesome being British, American or French.. If you get kidnapped being from one of those countries at least you know the best soldiers in the world are looking for you
It was more awsome being a Soviet citizen,cos nobody would dare touch you!
More like knowing there was high chance your submarine would sink, your tank would fall apart or your ships would just stop working.. Because that's pretty much sums up everything the soviets built
Most European countries have very capable SF units, units like Polish GROM, German KSK, swedish marine commandos, and I'm forgetting a lot of em.
Olenga Gallardo many Soviets were kidnapped in the Middle East in the 70’s & 80’s. I think the USSR took the terrorists families hostage and no one ever got taken again.
First of NATO countries don't build AK47's, the Russians do, and what's guns do the taliban and Isis use? AK's and PK's, all Russian made.
First time in a long time that I shed a tear in front of a youtube video, thanks for making it in their memory.
Vive la France 🇨🇵
Just for you to remind : they conducted the assault of the tents "without opening fire" to not risk ostages life's, but still managed to kill 3 of the militants during this time
So it was hand combat?

C’est dingue de voir aussi peu de commentaires français ! Le commando Hubert est la cerise sur le gâteau de l’armée française !Reposez en paix Cédric et Alain. !
Pourquoi c est une obligations de commenter?(il y aurais tellement a dire qu il vaut mieux rien dire)
@@hervelesage3550 non effectivement, ce n'est pas une obligation , mais au lieu de commenté ce que j'ai écrit , vous auriez pu le faire pour la vidéo !
C'est une vidéo en anglais, par une chaîne anglophone donc déjà ça restreint énormément le nombre de français qui peuvent potentiellement tomber dessus et la comprendre
La plupart des gens qui suivent cette chaîne ne sont pas français
ce qui est dingue, c'est de voir autant de commentaires étrangers soutenir nos troupes. par exemple au U.S, une partie de la population pense que l'armée française sont des couards alors que leurs propres soldats qui ont œuvrés avec nos troupes sur différents théâtres d'Operations ne tarissent pas d'éloges concernant les forces de notre nation, leurs courages, et leurs professionnalismes. je vois donc cela d'un très bon œil, il suffit de voir la la plupart des commentaires de nombreux civils pour comprendre que finalement, le respect est bien plus l'apanage des forces armées.
@@therealoswald1176 Car notre nation prête de l'importance à l'armée ? C'est déjà une surprise de voir la LPM augmenter après toute ses années.

merci ,mes freres Australiens !!
"These Things We Do, That Others May Live" its the US pararescue moto, but it might as well be for all military personnel. My utmost respect to those two fallen heroes.
GIGN's moto (france's equivalent of SWAT) was "Sauver des vies au mépris de la sienne", which roughly translates to "To save lives without regard to one's own".
But it changed in 2014 to "To enlist for life". I suspect the initial one was deemed too "hardcore"
EDIT : I say hardcore, because in french it sounds hardcore. The translation does not really give a full sense of that. "mépris" actually means "disdain" so a better translation IMO would be "To save lives disdaining your own"
Merci, de l'hommage que vous leurs portez.
For the little story, the French Chief of Staff, Générl François Lecointre, is know to be the officer (Captain at the time) that lead the last baïonnette charge of the French military history in 1995 in Bosnia, at the Vrbanja bridge.
it's true
Oh yes, the bridge stormed by the serbs. If theu had got thru, they wld have massacred many in Sarajevo. The french werr pissed of at various serb takeovers where a small number of French had to surrender. So they charged without higher orders.
Thanks for sharing. Had never heard that story before. Looked it up and found this interview: ua-cam.com/video/PAPox1A3F6U/v-deo.html

Thank you from France for this report
Thank you for your feedback
Thank you to all the soldiers who risk and sometimes give their lives for the freedom of all.
Commando Hubert is one of the seven naval commandos of the French National Navy, considered to be the most elitist unit in the entire French Army.
Masters Alain Bertoncello and Cédric de Pierrepont lost their lives but the mission was completed.
No doubt their families, friends and brothers are proud of their sacrifice, even if the loss of these men will always weigh heavily.
Thank you for this tribute !
Hope they will protect Kobe 😔
R.I.P. May God be with you and your family.
Who said the French can't fight. Rip to those men. 🇺🇸
Only american politicians said so, and all couch potatoes repeating like parrots, but none a real American soldier that once crossed the path of french army said that.
morons who can't fight either, parrots and american politicians say that. No one else.
Only retards said that, France is a warrior country, history proves it. Nowadays it still is, we lost many of our brave soldiers in Afghanistan, Mali and every theatres of war.. But nobody seems to gives France credits, strangely, although we have the best army in Europe

I'm british, ex RAF, and have first hand experience of working alongside the Armée de l'Air, and the Santę des Armées.
The French do not deserve the reputation conjured up in the minds of keyboard warriors who watch too much television.

True. So true.
Rivals but friends. True friends.
On vous aime les angliches. Nos vieux copains.
If only the Irish were friends with Britain and France.
The videos you are producing are amazing, you show why special operations soldiers are needed. Im french, so forgive my english. The reason two of the bravest died is because they went to kill the hostage takers with knives. the number of tents and the fact that they had to kill a sentinel prior to engage the people in the tents force them to go in in a very unconventionnal way. I undersand that you dont have all the fact from the mission you are talking about, but I thought it would be important to correct what you said. Once again, thank you for bringing awarness and respecting the SOF all around the world, my final thoughts are for the wives and kids of these two brave warriors, its breaking my heart... once again, Im french, so sorry for my brocken english.
As someone who served with British joint special forces hostage extraction team, I salute those French soldiers who did a great job. Well done gentlemen.
attaquer des terroristes a l armes blanche , oui c est courageux , merci c est un honneur d obtenir votre respect ,
A daring and determined rescue. Great respect for the French military. Very sad, about the loss of two French special forces troopers. A cautionary tale, for travelers who venture into insecure areas of the world.
Think carefully, before you go. Lives may be lost, getting you out of trouble.
yes
So that others may live. These commandos are true heroes. Laid their lives down so that someone else could go home to see their families.
wow that korean and american would have never been rescued if it wasn’t for the french guys.
That was very strange. Why would they kept them prisoners without asking for a ransom to their countries?
@@remoraexocet Because in these regions they're captured by smugglers, bandits, then sold to djihadists, then they're moved a lot to different places on very long distances, and from these isolated areas it's very difficult to communicate to ask ransoms, and they're very cautious. So it takes months, and a lot of different intermediaries, before we learn there are hostages.
@@remoraexocet The US hostage was most likely a CIA officer. Hence why no public revelation of her kidnaping and why extremely little information can be found about her in the media.
@@remoraexocet Because this wasn't a Ransom kidnapping. Read between the lines...they killed the local guide on the spot and took the 2 men traveling to a border region after burning all their equipment on the spot...they knew damn well what kind of hostages they just took...were probably awaiting further instructions or a meetup with another Government contact or international crime/terror group to hand them off, trade them, or interrogate them on the spot and execute them
@@sebastianbeaussier6197 yes, I think the US hostage is CIA, because I dont remember hearing about a kidnapped American on US news
I am a korean and I remember reading an artice about this. The Korean woman arrived in a different country in africa and toured around different countries despite being some countries being banned for travel. There was a lot of backlash against the woman because two french soldiers had lost their lives reportedly because they had to resort to cqc to not risk hostages getting caught in the firefight.
OUI c est vrai , mais c est juste leur métier , ils l ont choisi !!!
Merci à UA-cam d'avoir diffusé ce document en hommage à Cédric de Pierrepont et Alain Valencello des commandos Hubert qu'ils reposent en paix.
Je les ai côtoyé, très souvent au PEM St Mandrier et j'ai été très choqué de leur mort.

Bertoncello effectivement erreur de ma part désolé
Thank you for your sacrifice to rescue hostages. We all Korean deeply sorry and condolence to their families. Thank you again for 2 Masters of French commando marine. R. I. P.
they belong to commando Hubert ! The grade " commando marine " allows you attempt to go in several commandos. But Hubert is the hardest to pass. It is comparable to navy seals
@@harounlee208 Hubert is not comparable to the Navy Seals. You have to be from another commando for a few years and being an NCO to take the Hubert selections.Hubert is a special mission, top of the general commando marine units. So men from the 6 Commandos are comparable to the Seals and Hubert, the 7th Commando, is the DEVGRU equivalent, or ST6. For the Brits, the general Commando Marine are the RN commandos equivalent and Hubert is the SBS equivalent.
@@alexandrelarsac9115 You're perfectly right. I should not say that, but my son, Marine Commando in Lanester is working hard to become a Hubert. For now, he has to make his proof in Lanester. @Ian Lee: i went to the ceremony with my corean girlfrined (Kyung ae, not the celebrity!) She was crying like a baby.

French SOF are legit. They are fully capable to carry out a wide array of SOF missions. They are cutting their teeth in Africa now.
And did so for a looong time before that.
Idk man, French SF has been in almost constant deployment in West Africa since the 1950s
I hate to hear about the 2 loses the French SF sustained but what a bunch of absolute legends doing what amazing men do! Thank you from the USA 🙏🏼

Good film. People need to be aware of how these men put there lives on the line all the time for the freedoms we enjoy every day.
Rest in piece lads.

With honour and dignity I salute this act of bravery by those that risk their lives for the sake of innocence. RIP to cedric pierrepont & Alain bertoncello and a striking moment of reconciliation to those that survived. My deepest sympathy to the families of these hero’s. their story will never be forgotten 🙏🏻
Innocence? Rubbish! No simply 4 selfish idiots who had nothing to do in a war zone. 2 courageous and brave commandos lost their lives for them. Awful!
@@francinesicard464 rubbish ? Soldiers are there to protect the innocent and engage those that wish to force their will upon the innocent so ask yourself why you got steam rolled in ww2 and who came to your rescue.

Thanks for bringing this incredible mission to public awareness. A lot of people in the English speaking world don't know anything beyond the mystique of British SAS and US Seals/SF. They don't even know that there was a French SAS in WWII and that they were SO good, they had a British SAS officer in awe (Major Roy Farran).
Making a hostage rescue on tents in the open is MORE dangerous than any building. No cover from fire; if any, ineffective sniper cover; can't use grenades; flashbangs use is risky; you can't breach quickly with frame charges or rams, and; you have to be feet away to OPEN/slice the tent flap before having a chance of seeing the baddies to slot them. So ridiculously close it's almost a toss-up between using a rifle/pistol or an Opinel No7...
All the gunmen have to do is "spray and pray" in a 360 degree arc and killing the hostages would have been child's play. These French soldiers - what's their next trick, walking on water?! :-)
The only surprise is that only two men paid with their lives to make this rescue happen. These are REAL men. I am glad that France recognises them. It's a pity that the other men of this incredibly courageous mission have to remain UNrecognised.
VIVE LA FRANCE!!!
Nice job on the videos, you go into great detail with them and it helps you learn a lot about the special forces :) is what we're aiming to achieve with our videos one day.

Nothing but respect for our french brothers from across the Chanel.
And back. Did you know that this unit still wear their green beret with insigna on the right like British commando (The rest of the french army wear it on the left). It's because they were formed in the 2nd WW by british commandos, and they landed in normandy on DDay with them. They kept this tradition.
Like the 1er RPIMA is keeping the name " SAS " , and the motto "Qui ose gagne" ("Who dares win"), for the same reason, they were operating alongside british SAS during WW2).
French special forces are closely linked to British ones since the begining.
@@TheLoxapac very interesting, thanks for the info!
An impressive story and video. Its well told and the sounds and music make it complete. The French memorial under a clear blue sky is sad and stunning at the same time.
En tant que français, je suis très touché par cet hommage rendu par des étrangers à nos Forces Spéciales. De tout coeur, Merci.
So sad to hear about the 2 soldiers who died. My utmost respect to the French Special Forces and their families. R.I.P.
À Cédric et Alain. Ils ont donné leur vie pour secourir des personnes qui n'auraient jamais dû se trouver dans cette zone ! Il aurait fallu le dire... Ne les oublions jamais. LN
People put themselves in dangerous places and dangerous situations and because of this two good men are dead.
Selon le livre de Louis Saillans un ancien commando marine, la zone où se trouvaient les otages n'était pas encore classée dangereuse au moment où ils s'y sont rendus. Elle ne l'a été que plus tard au cours de leur séjour. "L'armée ne décrète pas une opération à l'aune des personnalités à secourir. Quel que soit l'individu pris en otage, une unité risquera sa vie pour lui. Sa valeur ne se mesure pas en fonction d'une échelle de mérite. Peu importe qu'il soit un saint ou un repris de justice, une célébrité ou un inconnu, un PDG ou un chômeur, un vieillard ou un enfant. Nous ne secourons pas un être humain en fonction de ce qu'il est susceptible d'apporter à la société. Le principe fondamental des unités spéciales de l'armée est de secourir ceux qui sont en détresse, quels qu'ils soient. C'est notre raison d'être et notre responsabilité" - (Chef de guerre)
thank you very much for this video man !
RIP. Good job from the UK
Bless you heroes for laying down your lives to rescue civilians - you are all heroes
Great job by the French paras. Condolences for the loss of the two brave commandos. People who choose to travel in areas of the world run by criminal terrorists need to recognize that they are placing the lives of others at risk by their foolish choice.
Just so you know, technically speaking they aren't paratroopers, but divers, coming from the Commando Marines units from the Marine, the French Navy.
They are all fully capable of paradrop action, even HALO jump.
But technically, they are divers. See them as SEALs.
@@gangsta74110 je suppose que tu es français? Les commandos marines ne maitrisent pas tous les vecteurs air,terre, mer. Seul le commando HUBERT maitrise les 3 vecteurs et sont d'ailleurs les seuls dans l'armée a maîtriser les 3 vecteurs, c'est l'unité la plus élitiste de toute l'armée.
@@romain6215 je suis française en effet.
Et navrée, mais d'une, le commando Hubert c'est la Marine donc, pas l'Armée ( oui c'est un détail je sais je suis chiante ).
Deuxièmement cependant, et pour répondre plus directement à ton affirmation, tu te trompes.
Au sein de la ForFusCo, toute les unités sont aptes à évoluer dans les trois dimensions.
Simplement, chacun des Commando on une mission différentes, mais dans chaque Commando tu trouveras des nageurs, et tout les opérateurs sont qualifiés chuteurs opérationnel.
En parlant de l'Armée cette fois, le 1er RPIMa opère sur les trois dimensions, et dispose autant de nageurs de combat, de sauteurs SOTGH et HALO, que des unités purement terrestre, style CTLO et PatSAS.
Le 13eme RDP, bien que n'étant pas une unité de combat, évolue également dans tout les environnements.
Certaines unités plus conventionnelles, tel le 17eme RGP, évolue également dans les trois dimensions.
Pour conclure donc, non, Hubert n'est *certainement* pas la seule unité ayant cette capacité, heureusement d'ailleurs.
@@romain6215 et pour répondre à ton dernier point, l'unité la plus élitiste du COS, c'est le 1er RPIMa.
Et si l'on cherche celle de toute les forces militaires française, les unités de combats de la DRM et de la DGSE le sont probablement encore plus.
@@gangsta74110 ce que je veux dire, c'est que tous les opérateurs du HUBERT maîtrise les 3 vecteurs et sont les meilleurs au niveau marin de toute la marine et de l'armée de terre. Et pour ce qui est de l'unité la plus élitiste c'est bien le commando HUBERT. Et pour le 1er Rpima, un ancien des fs m'a expliqué que le 1er Rpima n'est pas meilleur que les cm et vice-versa. Les stages sont tout aussi dur des deux côtés. Et pour revenir sur le commando HUBERT, je sais que ce n'est pas la seul unité a avoir les 3 vecteurs, mais parmis les fs, ils ne sont pas obligés a tous maitriser chaque vecteur, mais le commando HUBERT demande a chaque opérateur de maîtrisé tous les vecteurs

Brave men, respect from Norway.
Thank you for honoring with talent their memory. Be sure that the french really appreciate this kind of tribute.
Excellant video. Thanks for covering this event.
merci pour le reportage !!!
Great video and tribute to these SF operators.bravo and well done.
Respect et humilité reconnaissance éternelle .
I find these videos immensely powerful in reminding all just what lengths the servicemen and women are willing to go inorder to protect others. These videos always talk about the great success of these missions, but it is always immensely important at the end when it reminds us that these great victories have a great cost.
excellent video.We will be for ever redevable for their dedication and sacrifice. Merci Cedric et Alain sans oublier vos familles.
Rip to the fallen operators, and thank you
Thank you for the hard work. As a frenchman, this is truly moving to know these dramatic (and heroic) events are known beyond our national borders. Their sacrifice was not in vain.
Hats off to you
Thanks for including all of our fallen brothers and sisters.

As a reserve Greek Army officer ...all my respect to those brave men.
