The thing i love is how eventhough the last man was behind, he carried on and the fact that the instructors werent angry he was last but instead proud because he tried his best! Best thing about the army... Brotherhood
Last guy dies. Pays to be a winner. No place for feelings
@ @@TheActiveAssault ??? geez wouldnt want to be in your team...to be a leader you have to show proper empathy. if you dont youre not a team player, no one will follow you because lets face it, you dont care and worse, you might be a sociopath...but hey it pays to work as a team and leave no man behind...thats how i work...so far, thats worked so good.
@@TheActiveAssault you dont seem like a leader.
@@mrchulondon be partners in murder.
Yes fukkheads.
@@idid1609 i dont think youll really understand this even if i explain it to you, but war is a conflict management system....peace keeping and peace making are all conflict management systems...These people are part of an age old system of soldiering. it is that very tradition that allows you your freedom of stupidity.
I like the mentality of the British Army. Very disciplined and tough.

Soldier 1: *CONTACT LEFT!*
Soldier 2: *(turns to the right)
lmao xD
If its his sector to cover, he ofc needs to secure that one first. However if you are completly done left and right are barely diffrent ;)
its standard to look both ways here in ozzie when we get contacted we set up a 360 til we can identify the size and where the contact is before we decide to follow threw and eliminate the threat
Trae Cook Think you are getting Christmas Shopping & Reaction to Enemy Fire confused there pal...🤷🏻♂️🤣
@@irishguy8555 nuhhh bruhhh its right
when you are tired, you will forget your left and right
If the British army was a mile it would be the Brecon mile. “It’s over two miles.”
L Law 😆😆😆
Love the way the journalist is enjoying a hot brew at the end despite doing nothing!!!
Exmoor Farmer because he’s a journalist wtf is he supposed to do?
@@Alucard-gt1zf He could join them for at least one of the events to get an idea what it's like and earn that cuppa!
What u expect him to do besides not having a hot brew, drink some water
If the camera crew would join them for 1 event they wouldnt be doing the camera work stuff you know..
Everyone has a job. The military is about understanding and respecting the value of every job.
I would not be able to cope with the pressure and stress. These young men protect what I can not. Amazing what a human can be trained to be. And the British do it best.
these sort of training should start in pre-school. You cannot train the mind & body the same way as you would after a certain age. The Spartans new it, and proved what early military education is worth. If you compare the British army to shit, it always seems better. If you were training from 3-4 years and up, today you could be a beast, able to cope with pressure and stress in the most critical situations. It's like football players. Sure, you can get a bunch of guys and train them to "play" football in a short period of time, and if you didn't know much about football, you would say they are okay. Imagine an army when today's special forces are just regular solders. That is how it would be, and better.
Im british and this looks like so much fucking fun
Best? I dont think so mate.
I think he means like one of the best, not necessarily the best
@@unzicek best as in top 3 in the world. Definitely.
Congrats from Poland we are proud of our allies
Proud to fight alongside you any day!
After the budget cuts, the new training will be giving them 5 pints of larger, spinning them and telling them to run in a straight line.
Cartoonman154
I thought they scrapped it
They couldn't afford the straight line. lol
Lmao😂funniest thing all day
That's the Raf reg
Joking about it but in actual fact Armed forces budget has been increasing ever since may took to parliament eeeeeeeee
this is why I'm so proud to be British. well done indeed. 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Me to lad
@@privatedougan2634 *too (at least learn the language if you claim to be British)
The uniforms are ridiculously antiquated with the dopey hat and the rest of it looking like it needs colour restoration. And let's be honest wash your faces you are not fooling anyone with those camo face stains. The Americans seem to get things done with a smart clean appearance why do the british feel they can gain a tactical advantage from looking like tramps? This isn't the vietnam jungle those days of close quarters camo are no longer nrcessary.
@@adrenalinpump7601 stfu
@CRISTIANO RONALDO the British people are not gays
But if you got any special pressure the British people will make sure that you will be satisfied.....
I am honored and privileged to serve beside the British armed forces.
you'd think it's easy doing what they do because the camera doesn't show you how truly cold it is especially after getting soaked wet multiple times. then after that obstacle course they needed to do some light mission and drills etc it's tough to be honest. carrying all that weight you wouldn't even feel like turning your head to the right, left or up because of all the energy being sapped away from you, much less run or perform contact drills etc. kudos to those guys in the film!!!
Marklin Ho solid description. Especially about the incremental movements seeming completely impossible when you’ve been thrashed around already. I miss it but also, I don’t miss it xD
Paul Wilson I guess the training does give you a reminder of the good times when doing it with the other guys and how it made an impact on your life.
But you also don't miss it because of how difficult it was back then.
It's like breaking yourself down and building it back up stronger than ever.
SITTING WATCHING THIS TURNING UP THE HEATING THAT EXTRA LITTLE BIT MORE
The first line "Keeping warm is the first challenge" If you're doing Sennybridge in the winter you can forget that right away. You're going to be cold wet and muddy all the time and all you're kit is going to be soaking wet. Sleeping in a wet sleeping back with soaking wet boots in freezing weather where you're just praying for daylight so you can move around and try and warm up. I have never been so cold and wet in my life but I still have great memories of my time there. RGJ 1975.
Ditto 3RGJ many times between1978-1982👍
US Army Drill Sergeant: "C'MON FASTER! MY GRANDMOTHER CAN DO THIS FASTER THAN YOU!"
British Army Drill Sergeant: "Good work lads! Just a little bit further!"
But it gets so cold wet and windy up there it pushes your body to it complete limit
@S A Sergeant Wilson 'wil you fall in .please' Ca[t. Mainwearing 'Bark it out , Wilson '.
These lads are artillery but they train like infantry because they are 7 para
Hahahahaha u should watch other videos then
I mean If you've seen full metal jacket you'll know why being tough to your soldiers isn't always the best option
Sennybridge. It literally never stops raining.
Contact left but turns to the right 😂😂😂
Haha what an absolute HAT !🤣
Gggg Ffff yeah I lost me shit for 10mins just laughing at that 😂😂😂😂
its on camera so left and right side are flipped
studmalexy so why did everyone else turn the correct way?
studmalexy Video frame isn’t flipped
Infantry NCO cadre. Lovely time on mine in 91. Sennybridge still looks so inviting and lovely. I think i left my right knee cap there.
Mine feb 1990. Loved the road out of Wales.

Been there done that, late 80s early 90s.
Remember.... If it ain't raining, it ain't training!!
Did this training absolutely a nightmare.
Well done lads - remember my NCO cadre 1Lancs - Then QLR 8 weeks 2004 - Dig deep and lead by the front - got promoted straight away with another 4 - 64 started 21 passed 5 instant - But Remember hardest one to get “easiest one to lose. Good luck lads and have a good career - After 17 Years MD blown up in Afghan (all good though) character building 👍
OP NEMESIS i was 1QLR, A coy then SP Coy 89-93. Loyally I served. Stay safe bro. Did my nco cadre in 91. Beasted. 2miler best effort every morning at 6am.
BLACK MAMBA NEMESIS get out of jail free first one. Busted/ promoted/ busted/ promoted. Lolololol.
BRITISH ARMY SERVICED IN KOSOVO ,THEY WERE VERY HARD WORKING SOLDIERS, WELL BEHAVED WITH CITIZENS IN GENERAL ,,, APPRECIATED FOR THERE JOB DONE IN KOSOVO.
Swimming through the flooded culverts was bleeping awesome.
Being army airborne myself, it’s crazy to see how similar our tactics are with the British. Patrol bases are the same, Ruck marches formations the same. Where we set up our gunners, how we take contact. All very similar.
They are artillery
@@gezzaro6085 airborne artillery
I'm just in awe of the British training, THIS is why British and Australian troopers are the best in the world, and why the world DEMANDS that we train them, and yes, that includes America!
Where do you think Delta Force came from, and how they maintain their standards?💪💪💪
Funny how the cyber warrior wannabe's are having a go at someone on the video... When a contact is called YOU NOT only look to the contact point but you do a SWEEP or all around to make sure there are NO OTHER contacts or anything that can or could be considered a danger... But then again I think those commentating have only ever been on a leadership course @ KFC!
These young lads are giving their best. The Artillery we have in the British Army are second to none. I'm ex Foot Guards but I'm proud of the Gunners. Sorry meant to say Our Gunners.
You hit the nail right on the head. Civvies...pffft!
Alright pal calm down
Nice one dits! 😂😂😂
Cheers DITS
Moustache
Sign of a classic NCO
Much respect for Britain's army, much love from US🇺🇲
@CRISTIANO RONALDO no
"GEDDUP THERE YOU.. STOP COASTING!!" Makes me want to re-join....
Been there Done that and it was one of the best experience of my life
Best experience of your life that you never want back again. Ever :)
much respect
Great stuff.
Savage. Loves these videos.
I love their berets and uniforms, kind of their camo more than american ones.
Good lads like to see. Be the Best.
Nice one Lads!
loved that assault course, memories!
Good stuff.
“This will help, This Won’t” 😂😂
I went through this training, it is a very hard and you need to have common sense and fitness. It is considered you have past records in something. The priority we have is splendid. I came home with legs hurting and arms, but it was worth it, today I am here. With a full uniform, gun, and a Sergeant rank. I would like to thank all my fellow comrades and companies helping me in Fights worth the while! 🤝👍🏻😁💪
What army because I can sense it isn’t the British Army just by you’re post here. What unit ? Where did you train ?
incredible!
Go on lads!
I felt tired just looking at the video.
Well done lads..👏👏
I remember Sennybridge - Hard, just hard
God damn Brecon beacons is a hateful hateful place! I did an exercise with the Blackwatch there years ago it was -12 and digging trenches was incredibly difficult while the grounds made of frozen rocks!! A week we were in the field. Truly grim!
That would be concrete hill made from slate. We dug and we dug for days and still did not get far. It was -14 which was easier then -1 or plus 1 as frozen water is better then rain.
Character building 😊
@@andyt3304 it built character and calluses!
Feel kinda guilty for sitting on my ass and just watching them. Makes me appreciate people in the armed forces even more!
Now that's must be exciting!!
It ain't training unless it's raining.
respect
Can't wait to join
Good to see
Percy loving it
This looks fun, I’d be up for doing this.
Yes then boys!
good old days! :-( but now it is all over ! many days and nights in Senny Bridge mainly just like above conditions but they were ggggoooodddd! :-)
Very good
Do not miss that place one bit, had some mad times on them hills
Running in circles to warm up: This will help
Running through a river: This wont
The narrator be like
This should help
This shouldn't
British military has the best personal in the world despite the very sad state the British military is in
Seeing all the lads with the L85 struggling and then we get that one scene with the guy carrying a GPMG poor guy needing to carry that thing.
Interesting at 3:17 (I may be wrong or it could be my old eyes)but one of the chaps appears to be wearing a prototype helmet that delivers similar results to Predator armour!
From the US Navy, and the rest of the US Armed Forces; I salute our British Allies 🇺🇸🇬🇧🫡
i miss that struggle a littlebit...
max Respect from Germany
I'm far too soft and pdgy to do something like this, much respect!
Are and always have been the best in the world and cadres hurt a lot but you feel great when you pass the course.
I got to give these guys a huge respect . British army is the best in the world 👏👏👏
I love GB and its Military Forces
Salute from nepal
Ahh I remember these days.. those cold wet.. windy mornings, 10 mile tab, River hoping.. And those tunnels were horrible lol this is what people Should see. Nice to see some of the real training our troops do.
Sennybridge oh the memories 😉
Always loved Training , especially In Wales 😂 Even got exposure in August ! It’s not by chance it’s one of our main uk training areas 👍
Practicing being cold and wet. Keep calm and carry boys, good effort
I def dont miss that!
Sennybridge always rained when I was there 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome place through 👍
British army is great. ..😀😀😀😀
And Thanks to Forces TV. ..👍👍👍👍👍
God bless to them
Love Britain
yep been there done it , best training area {infantry} in Britain
It seems that all good military training is conducted in the rain.
Because our Forces are so good, I was surprised to realise my thoughts that these soldiers will never fight in this terrain. It's just unimaginable.
But good to see they know their own country too.
That was me forty odd years ago,Happy day!
The chaps are going to need some tea and cake to warm up!
Contact left! 1st ISR brigade guy turns right. Best and brightest!
Yep, that's the true british spirit right there.
so polite
My dad's in 7 he has 1 year left and then he's done his 22
Cold and wet, jogging in place to stay warm. Reminds me of Ft Leonard Wood.
Fort Lost In The Woods.

Blas de Lezo at left!!!
Go to right!!!!!
Great video I'm not thinking of joining the army but am very interested in the boots they're wearing as I would like them for hiking they look like they're good for all terrains and all conditions. What boots do they wear please
Altburgs
This actually looks fun(not sarcasm).
Para Royal Horse Artillery? They throw artillery and horses out of a plane? That is so cool
Horses throw the chaps out and then jump with the guns!
PHEW! Watching that was almost as bad as doing a B3 Combat Engineers course at Gibraltar Barracks.
Get a hot wet lads, keep fighting.
Outstanding, a Vietnam War Artillery veteran!
3:18 💜
That Lieutenant is in clip beret ripped, shirt looking honking
It is a pass or fail course, well it was when I done it.
Ricky Jiggins still is. I think he means if you fail you just go away for a bit and come back later when you’re better.
Gloves eye protection needed
Hands in pockets lol pongs love it
A dream that i'll never could reach: Becoming a British soldier
BOI DONT GIVE UP!!! YOUR GONNA JOIN THAT ARMY AND YOUR GONNA GET THROUGH AND ACCOMPLISH YOUR DREAM YOU HEAR ME?!
lol i'm in other country m8 but i'm trying to get in the military in my country though. Thanks, i really appreciate it c:
@@giveusthezucc5650 no problem I hope you get in
