  • 24 hours as a recruit⏰ Ever wondered what a typical day looks like for our New Zealand Army recruits? Say no more.
    From barrack rooms to shooting training, close quarter battle to lifelong comrades - this is a day in the life of our soldiers in training.

      The marines are supposed to be tough and angry they're our vanguard force. They need that extra bit of ferocity to weaken the will of opposing forces. The army should be stable but firm as it's an occupying force.

    you know, ive been in the US army for 15 years now and we were lucky to get 4 hours of sleep at the minimum and it didnt have to be consecutive, i get that some people feel that soldiers around the world should be held to some same standard that the US is but a lot of these forces train a lot more than we do and their leadership has earned the respect of their troops, so instead of shaming them, look inward on our own potential faults

      Why would you want to serve in the NZ army? This country has stripped citizens of arms turning thousands into criminals overnight, coerced thousands into taking experimental medical procedures by threatening their study and employment, in doing violating the Nuremberg code like the enemies that our grandfathers died fighting.
      Do you want to get deployed to some desert and see your friends get killed just do you can pull out after 20 years and leave 75 billion in military equipment to your enemies? When you shouldn’t have been there in the first place.
