@Old Guard Well, maybe you should crawl back into your townhouse and let them find shelter where they can. God knows, even in the bush that poor family is still paying out the ears for rent.
My dad's uncle was one of the last of the true mountain men. While others were using binoculars trying to find the German camoflaged gun emplacements, he just pointed to where they were. He explained that as soon as they cut off the branches to cover the guns, they started to change color.
My ex tutor used to be a special observer, brilliant guy, helped me realise a lot of things. Main thing he told me was that if he ever fired his gun he'd failed at his job.
This kind of attention to detail and dedication to doing the job right is why the brits were the only foreign force I was ever happy to share a battlefield with.
What an excellent insight into this highly specialised military role. Patience, self discipline, spatial awareness and a commitment to the team and it's overall success make for a good starting point!
@@mannyechaluce3814 Simply because the US military ran away, and the Afghan military were wholly unfit for purpose! Irrespective of how many trillions of dollars, training, equipment and weapons that were given to the Afghan military, they were always unfit for purpose. Treacherous Afghan military personnel, illiterate, dumb, lazy applicants, they liked to pose with the US supplied weapons and equipment, but as for defending their country and its people, they were truly unfit for that purpose. The evidence of that was how they all ran to the airport instead of taking on the approaching Taliban forces.
@@mannyechaluce3814 The Taliban were *given* back their country in a deal done by President Trump *WITHOUT* telling any of the allies. When Biden came into office the Taliban had already gone back in country (but not fighting) and waited for the handover. Unless the Allies wanted to put 10's of thousands of troops back into Afgan and start a hot war all over again there was nothing to be done. Biden negotiated an extension to get the allied people out. but some of the Taliban went off early and it escalated from there. Remember the Allies had not been doing the direct fignting for some years and it was 99% ANA who were on the ground. Also Trump had been trying to pull ALL US troops out of Afgan inthe December/January after he lost the election. He told the Taliban all the US would be out of Afghan by February. They acted on that.
My ex teacher was an observer, he told us about 1 of their missions he was a commander at the time. The point he was observing from a tank almost ran them over the tank was 1 meter away from the hole and they somehow got out unseen.
18C's used to have an exercise that they would Recon an objective that had index cards with numbers or letters on them as well. Along with your standard reconnaissance packet, you were required to find all of the Hidden index cards to ensure you didn't just watch the objective from one place. Lots a fun while in school.
Camouflage, cover and concealment. We had some real good training on the subjects. Once my class was led to an opening in the forest. A man was placed about 100 yards just inside the trees on one side of the clearing. We were asked to find him from the spot we were standing and yell out the range. Out of about 30 of us, no one found the man. He was signaled to step into the clearing from where he was standing. Unbelievable! The soldier had disappeared. Valuable lessons learned in camouflage. Concealment is another skill that requires careful execution. With camouflage you blend into the surrounding, with concealment you eliminate all the evidence you are there. No unnatural colors, shapes, movements, reflections, etc. Cover is what stops bullets.
obviously they're not going to be hiding that obviously in the bush, probably a demo for the video team. Pretty sure most armies around the world have their own forward observers or scouts by most armies i mean countries like the USA, UK, Germany, France etc etc countries that are developed, think the US version is called the Calvary scout? not sure...
I had a friend who did that in the French 13th RDP. I got a glimpse of what their level of stealth was like, when he told me they were eating special biscuits that can be completely digested, reducing the volume of poo as much as possible.
Wow this brings back memories. But also it taught me how to live homeless. Now I’m married and well employed. I thank STA Platoon 2/3 and US Marine Corps.
Years ago, I was told that in many so called third world nations where many people still live close to the land it was virtually impossible for these kinds of teams to operate in the hinterland undetected for long periods of time because no matter how careful they are people always leave sign of their passing.
Excellent comrades! I've served asan observer and squad leader in a german airborne recce unit. Been there, done that. Although i always hated stayin in a fu**** dirthole for days to finally see one vehicle come by ^^. Keep it up and best greetings from germany !!!

My mate is a Royal Marine he joined at just 16 years old and got out at 26 then got on mobile crane's that I'd been on for about 18mths before him BUT I have to say WHAT A FRIEND TO HAVE. I only knew him 3 years until i got sick and out of 48 operator's HE was the ONLY 1 who would txt / EVERY SINGLE WEEK to ask how I was ,if anyone is bestowed the friendship with a Royal Marine cherishe it because you have a real friend FOR LIFE.
Bro, there's spies that are born spies. Deep in the dark, dark world, babies are born and trained from birth to spy. Their mission is to be a spy. They don't exist, no names no family, no connections. They live a lovely paid for lifestyle, but spy, spy, spy. I wouldn't be surprised if they had a very high up position in every countries intelligence agency.
Definately one of the most thrilling jobs in FDF as well. As a recon forward observer my job is the same thing with special observers but the only difference is that in hot situations I get to call the big guns for help. And just for record I’m not a staff member, but a conscript so I don’t have any government secrets. OSINT is useless on me. EDIT: Turns out Special Observer and Recon Forward Observer are the same thing.
Imagine beeing 100km away from the rest of the army, on your own, deep behind enemy lines and the rifle they gave you is an SA80... those guys are absolute madlads
Semarox Germany they are absolute Walter mittys. They’re 5 reg RA and they’ve not used this capability ever. An infantry recce platoon can do I better job...fact.
@@aidhanroberts9028 that’s your opinion. If the last 12 months has taught us anything, this role and light role recce are obsolete. A drone can do this and more.
I’ve just realised how many reconnaissance/surveillance teams we have 😂, such as 4/73 special observation post battery, SRS (30 commando), Pathfinders, SRR etc. etc.
Awesome. This is seriously good training (not the level you see in the video for OPSEC I'm sure) and a ballsy job. But imagine doing that whilst an active enemy, maybe even mechanised or some form of armoured brigade is rolling around past you most of the time, they'll have FLIR and NV optics connected to coaxial machine guns, not to mention troops sweeping/beating the ground also. One mistake and it's goodnight. Just a total guess but they must have some emergency radio call that tells artillery miles away to just fire everything on a predesignated spot to give them time to extract and get out of there. Otherwise these teams if compromised would get captured or killed quickly by a large enemy force which would be a total waste of life and expensive training. Not to mention all the kit that would fall into enemy hands.

True, however a human at eyelevel and close quarter to the enemy are able to gleam far more indepth information than any drone system currently. Morale, bearing, routine, ground conditions, water crossing depth, surface weight (can the ground be crossed by APC in the event of an attack. Plus a drone cant be on station 24/7 for 10 days.
They might not be visible, but what about guard dogs. I mean, sitting there for a few days, that must cause "a certain" smell... If I understand it correctly, those who don't want to be sure should aim at the places which are the least likely to conceal observers. So, every unit should have with them someone who has been an observer and thinks like an observer to spot potential enemy observers. And every now and then use teargas, just to be sure ? I mean, if there are airplanes, one can be sure there are anti-aircraft tactics. If there are observers, I assume special anti-observer tactics too have been developed ?
gotta wonder what happens if they're in a barren rocky landscape with no plant life around? rely purely on satellite imaging? set them up further away with powerful binoculars?
