Barren Land Arctic Survival Training: BLAST from Unforgiving Greenland
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 июн 2023
- You’re on a plane that goes down in the Arctic. There is nothing but snow and ice as far as you can see. What do you do? And how do you survive?
The US Air Force has a course for that. In a 4-day, 3-night exercise, a mobile training team of Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape instructors, known as SERE specialists, hit the wavetops (er, ice caps?). A repeat customer, the New York Air National Guard’s 109th Airlift Wing calls the training Barren Land Arctic Survival Training, or BLAST camp for short.
Because the 109th owns the only 10 ski-equipped LC-130 cargo planes in the world, its aircrews fly America’s missions to both poles. For that reason, the Guardsmen need to know how to survive if one of their skiplanes goes down over the Arctic or Antarctic, Earth’s coldest and emptiest regions.

I lived in Alaska for 13 years after I got out of the Army. My first job was with Evert's Air Cargo as a cargo master. Been over the Arctic Ocean, Point Barrow, Barter Island (Kaktovic), Prudhoe Bay, and many many other places. My 2nd job was driving truck for a moving company out of Fairbanks. Spent many many hours in -40 below working outside loading my trailers. I also hiked and camped continuously the whole time. I loved almost every minute of it(not always at the time). The Arctic has a stark beauty that nothing I have seen can compare to. Also, you mess up, you die. I loved that simplicity. Do your research, learn the lessons from those who have gone before you, and remember, when you stop moving somewhere not warm enough for life, you freeze to death and die.
Can’t wait to see the full video!
These videos lately have been so good. Y'all should do one on combat medics next! They don't get enough love. Or Navy Corpsman.
Thank you very much and that’s a great idea! Noted. 🫡
Awesome job to Jenna Biter! Coffee or Die doing some cool reporting.
Amazing to see this ! I have no idea
great video... very interesting
Great stuff Jenna!
Pretty insane conditions
great vid
Dirty stache! 🤙🏻
I wish I could try this. I’ve slept out in 30 degree weather plus wind chill when I was homeless.
Can you do a video on MSgt John Chapman and tell his MOH story I think you guys would do an amazing video on him
Such an underrated story. It needs more coverage. BRCC would do a great job covering it. There’s a movie in the works about him but I’m not hopeful that it will do the story any justice.
2:51 - Badass to have a name like "Seraphim" as a girl haha
Tiger stripe camo is not an effective pattern, sorry. It has a sexy reputation but take a rational look at the horizontal pattern and compare it to the standing vegetation that you’ll be stalking through? See what I mean? Don’t try and argue that it will be effective while you’re in the prone because you’ll spend relatively little time in the prone and while there as long as the colors are correct, you’ll blend.
I have been in that aircraft I live in kangerlussuaq
Do they use the RCAF Boxtop 22 crash in the mid 90's near Alert (roughly due west of Thule) as a motivating real world reason for the training? If not they should. A lot of changes to RCAF SAR and C130 loadouts of survival gear amongst the lessons learned.
🥶
That camouflage isn’t exactly working
C130? More like Ski130
lol air force. probably the cushiest survival training ever
Spoken like a true “I’d join but” individual
@Cgny did join. The marine corps.
@@Krevin1775 basic or tech school wash out I presume. Or you’ve def never deployed.
Where did you go in the Marines
Yeah they brought their clubs.
