I remember crying as I past the finish line. All that pain and realisation that it was over hit me. For me it was easily the hardest test but for others a little bimble on Dartmoor 😆
You must remember these lads jog 5 miles before breakfast each day and the training goes back too the Romans and Greeks a forced night march get men and equipment too a battle field fast that 30 mile and the 9 mile are important exercise for any cadet too do and after the green berit you learn more
Look how dark there tunics are that swet when I did this I lost nearly a stone but its very important that they can doo this march it's what separates them from other troops
I served in the Canadian airborne regiment our physical training seems very similar 2 by 10s as what we called your 9 miler we would parachute in and run back in fighting order regularly seems similar to the royal marines
RM set the standard for all the worlds Marines. USMC, Quit reinventing the PFT, making up "leadership" (MCMAP) just go to the duty experts. OCS, TBS, MCRD will cry buckets but the truth sucks. Only thing I would change is at least a 300 meter shoot at the end.
people forget that by the time you undergo the final commando tests to end your training you are already physically and emotionally drained, its lets get through the course one day at a time
La base de los royal marines es excelente en sus entrenamientos yo me entrene en esa base hace varios años en los cursos de comando boina verde es fuerte el entrenamiento pase y aprobe estos cursos soy infante de mstina de ecuador llegue al grado de suboficial mayor
British soldier carries 24 pounds and a rifle, walks 30 miles in 8 hours. The Roman legionnaire carries 88 pounds (without a backpack), walks 15 miles in a day, but in the evening digs a moat, sets up a palisade, and sets up camp. And so every day. Hold his beer.
Firstly, have you been to Dartmoor, it’s absolute shite. Roman legionaries got to take roads and when they didn’t they didn’t go through fucking rivers, going in a bloody straight line because the bridge is untactical, incomparable.
@@hectormackie3654 I haven't been to Dortmund. Legionnaires usually walked on the roads this way. But do not forget that the legionnaire's march could last for weeks, it was routine and not training. Add to this 40 kg of equipment and the construction of a fortified camp at the end of each day.
@@hi-rm8ei 56 miles (90 km) in three days carrying 80-pound (36 kg) loads. As far as I understand, this was a necessary measure related to the loss of Chinook transport helicopters. Given the complete naval blockade of Argentina, her defeat was a matter of time.
Think I can say without fear of contradiction that these are men who will die for each other Anyone doubts this watch royal marine helicopter rescue freely available on YT
The Canadian Army Battle Fitness Test ("BFT" for all trades/and both male and female) was 13 Kms in two hours twenty minutes carrying 24.5 Kg (53 pounds) of gear, including rucksack and rifle. At the end end of that you had to do an immediate 100m untimed casualty evacuation using the fireman's carry of someone apporximately your own height and weight. Then immediately fol that you had to do a trench dig simulation by shovelling .486 cubic metres of pea gravel (which was a little strange). The fastest I did the march in was 1 hour 28 mins and 30 seconds, but I was 48 years old by then. It actually wan;t a bad test, but way easier than the older standard called the "2 X 10" where you had to do a ten miler with full kit and ammo boxes, etc., on two consecutive days. They've binned the BFT t now and have a universal fitness test for the whole of the CAF called the FORCE test. It's pathetc. If you can't pass it you prob don't have a pulse. Yet people do fail it.
There full title is Royal Marine Commandos , there commandos not just Rifleman like the US marines , thats why there basic training is 32 weeks, there 9 mile speed march is part of 4 commando tests they need too past to earn the Green Beret
There is no wet stops on the 9 miler, nor do you fire your weapon at the end. I passed out back in 89 in my original troop. I found the 9 miler relatively easy, as did I the 30 miler. It was painful because I was carrying a groin injury but as for the physical side of it, then not too bad. Endurance was harder, and I found the Tarzan assault test the most arduous. It’s the fact that your body is broken down and beaten up and everyone is carrying injuries and fatigued, especially as it is straight after your final exercise. My troop sergeant throughout training was a USMC Gunny. “Oliver Tilley” a top, top bloke. He informed our troop that the comparison between basic training of the respective Corps was huge.
2 miles of tunnels is BS as a former royal marine from 1971 we started with 72 and 19 of the original intake 68 JT made to the end some thing that will stick with me for life, NOT heroes just balls Cheers Dave
I must have been pissed if i wrote this as i was in 68 JT not 69 unless some one has messed with the comment if that is possible. But the older i get the more i think about Deal & CTC Training with fondness god knows why lol. Cheers Dave

Wow, total respect 🇬🇧👍🙏

Very well done, lads....
Used to love my phys. Miss those days.
Remember it well. 83 recruit troop 1975. I was a front traffic guide. Breezed it, TBH.

Now the training really starts from there !! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴
Immense respect for our brothers in arms. Cheers from a Swedish Marine.
Paras 10 mile battle march was 1 hour 45 mins with 45lb load rifle without sling back in the late 80s
You must be good hey. These are crap hat sailors with guns
Awesome I’d love to have a go! Whether I’d be any good who knows but I’d give it 110% as Deadpool says MAXIMUM-EFFORT😊😊

Since when was there a break on the 9 miler? I don't remember a water stop!
It used to depend on if you did it in summer or not. Now they all have one no matter the weather. The clock keeps ticking though ...
Remember carrying the telegraph pole to the start on the Juniors command course?

The best sort of award ceremony. No bells, no whistles, no nauseating speeches, the award is the star.
Absolutely "Ball-Baggin" .. PMPT
AORMARM
On our thirty miler our officer got us lost in fog , we ended up doing about thirty five .
Ah I miss DPM 😭
I passed out in June 1980 141 troop what an experience, Falklands war was just around the corner as well.

Music's a bit dramatic for a bunch of dudes walking tbh :")
Did this in January 1982 four of us collapsed at the end with heat exhaustion 48 hours in sick bay then onto the 30 miler. The good old days!!
The RAF do five miles faster. Five miles of death!
Wouldn't it be easier to take a helicopter ride?

Why spoil an excellent video with unnecessary horrendous music, why does everyone do this ?
That's almost 4mph average for that ;ength of time is a lot. Must burn some serious calories that day.
Big handshake from one of the training team to the diamond after crossing Shipley bridge, kudos & respect.

Well done good job I am pleased of my grandad sergeant major with his 1000 men by his side

I personally found all the tests buckers. It was the yomping, with full kit on exercise i found the hardest.
I nor sure I would like to give this one I trying to get fit I love the outdoors
I think you are better field !!
10kg? wtf lol
It's not 10kg Einstein. It even tells you the weight at the start 🤦🏼♂️.
@@JammyDodger45 Hey Einstein, please tell me how much 28lbs is in Kg's. Thanks.
@@russellcoight9376 - is this a quiz? I love a good quiz. 28lbs is 12.7kg. Next question genius.
@@russellcoight9376 - you've gone all quiet, are you struggling with the maths or are you just a bit shy? Ah Bless.
Well done good for the country I looking for a single army guy to share my life with I love the outdoors hope its ok to say this thank you
Well done good and thank you for letting me watch looking for single guy to date I love the outdoors
A mate of mine passed All Arms Commando Course in the early 90s. He told me the Endurance Course is almost as brutal as the Paras P-Company Log Race.
Rubbish attempt at 🎣 2/10
Never got a waterstop on mine in 71... In fact we donned respirators for the last 300 yds
Paras best uhuhuh bro
2 miles of tunnels is BS as a former royal marine from 1971 we started with 72 and 19 of the original intake 68 JT made to the end some thing that will stick with me for life, NOT heroes just balls Cheers Dave
we started with 57 at deal and ended with 11 at ctc
I must have been pissed if i wrote this as i was in 68 JT not 69 unless some one has messed with the comment if that is possible. But the older i get the more i think about Deal & CTC Training with fondness god knows why lol. Cheers Dave
Started with 52 and finished with 10 passing out!
