This is a very condescending film from our point of view. The USA took over the Uk soldiers who were starting to win the hearts and minds of the local people. The Us army came in and totally buggered up the work the British army did.
Exactly it’s like bringing in a US policing approach where a UK policing approach had been succeeding
Learning to Eat Soup With A Knife is a great book about how the a British do this sort of thing (counterinsurgency generally) better than Americans - and is written by a US Army Officer
who is " our" British or american? Nobody knows who you are lol
THE STORY OF THE AMERICAN ARMY AT WAR.
@@ScienceChildBloody obvious you pillock, "our" is us Brits, read the comment correctly or go back to school snd learn correct usage and context of the English language, preferably in a British school, the only country that teaches the language correctly.
No mention how three UK SBS 'frogs' climbed aboard a US nuclear Carrier during an exercise in the Pacific and took the Captain a cup of tea whilst he was in the 'Chair' on the bridge. There was a note on the saucer. Dear Captain, You are now working for us, please surrender your boat and take us back to Blighty. He was one pissed off man.
Source? I'm interested in the detail.
No sauce! Just a cup o Tea !@@LanielDevy
@@kronos4136 lol
Bloody right he would be pissed off. Coffee was probably the beverage he would be considering. 🙂
@@LanielDevy I can believe this to be true. I used to work with a guy who was ex-SBS. He said they used to go into operations by strapping six men to a boat and dropping it out the back of an aeroplane. Those guys have absolutely no fear whatsoever!
The Americans are the very best at killing themselves and their Allies in friendly fire incidents. The Gulf War being a prime example.
Bright orange identification patches could easily be rocket launchers.
Ask the Canadians.
@@Philcoxon We don't need to - the Brits already suffered enough.
After GW1, 21 SAS invited a USAF pilot to one of their dinners - where they presented him with the remains of the missile he'd fired at them.
and the Brits@@Philcoxon
There was a training exercise a couple of years ago. The British with 120 soldiers beat over 1,000 US soliders. Because of the equipment issues, the British concentrate on basic solidering instead of the technology side of things. They are very good at intelligence gathering side of things. Israel is a good example of this. The US provided the weaponry and the British taught Mossaid the intelligence and strategic side of things. Both are as equally valid and combine to make a formidable force.
The British are the ones that Russia are wary of and I quote " the British get places a lot quicker, than we'd like them to 😂
Our little island didnt rule the majority of the world at some point and not learn anything in the process. My grandfather who was SAS and when he retired from active duty he went to Australia to form their SAS. And to quote him regarding delta and the Rangers, " we taught them everything they know but not everything we know" And I have no doubt that something along those lines is said by US servicemen as well.
Both are formidable forces, they just approach things differently based on their strengths.
Could you imagine the common US solider going up against the Gurkha Regiments in a forest or a jungle, heck , even in open battle?
@@Believer1980I mean gurkers are just straight up the incarnate of rambo
Gurkers?@@jay_thebaguetteman
@@Believer1980gurkhas will literally fight to the death fucking terrifying people
I love how the Russkys refer to Brits as 'the awkward squad'!!
Yay!!! 💪🇬🇧💪
Very interesting but don't forget that the British royal marines recently made the American marines surrender in the States.
Fortunately a training excercise in which both sides learned something useful.
We fight our enemies in very different ways.
The Brits use small highly efficient units and intelligence gathering. The Americans use sheer numbers and firepower.
Unfortunately, using a sledgehammer to crack a nut doesn't leave much to eat after the fact.
The fact is that we need both approaches to be successful.
This is why we share skills, equipment and knowledge.
Together we stand, devided we fall.
✌️♥️🇬🇧
You should watch 'When the UK Nuked America twice' its a quite interesting watch. 👌👍👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
YES!

The worst thing about the video reviewed is that the Union Flag is upside down, when shown on the island, so it shows what he knows about Britain.
Holiwood done the same for 60 years 😂😂
From WW2 onwards all British tanks & APCs have been fitted with BVs (boiling vessels). One British tank crew pranked the German nilitary when they were showing them the then new Challenger tank, they fitted a microwave, tv and video recorder, then convinced the Germans it was standard equipment. The early US Abrams tank used British Chobham armour. The latest amour is still based on Chobham upgraded, Idk what the US calls theirs, but the British upgrade is called Dorchester. Before the Abrams was introduced, US post war tanks used the British L7 main gun. Colonel Charles Beckwith did an exchange programme with the SAS, and when he returned he persuaded the Pentagon to let him set up Delta Force. Apparently the US Army in Iraq produced a small card to fit in US troops wallets, it read, Do not drink with British troops Do not gamble with British troops Do not fight withe British troops YOU WILL LOSE.
The original Abrams had the 105 L7
Her Majesty was probably the only Monarch and quite possibly the only head of state who could strip down an engine!
Apperantly for Propagandist ideology
She was also a badass driver!!
She terrified Arab visitors. She actually drove ambulances during the Blitz!!
Did you ever see her riding her horse round Ascot racecourse. The only protection she wore on her head was a headscarf. Her Majesty was fearless, and had nerves of steel....and utter determination. We miss her so much. ❤🇬🇧❤🇬🇧❤💪
I still think us Brits have the best trained army in the world. And erm that's it ! Lol
Who do you think taught America how to fight 😉
@@Aloh-od3efI mean the British gurkers actually do teach the American army to this day
And we have the best trained special forces in the world
THE SAS
The best way to describe the British Army is that they are the best-trained fighting force in the world. Both of them.
British trained multiple armed forces around the globe, Special forces are all based off SAS too
One cannot simply fight a war without a cup of tea, perish the thought.
In the UK you can apply to join the army when 15, as long as you leave school when you're 16. The truth is that such young guys going into junior regiments and are not supposed to be deployed to hostile places until they have become 18 and joined an 'adult' regiment. This extra time doesnt coutn todawrds service or pensino but gives extra epxerience and can make promotion a bit faster.
They always leave out that the UK still has the common wealth, so the combined numbers there are the strategic locations of them would be a big advantage, like Canada 😊
The Commonwealth owes no military allegiance to Britain, it’s not an Empire anymore…..
I rather a squad ANY Commonwealth country backing me up than a Platoon of Americans
Yep they also left out the Gurkha Regiments, what they do just to be selected for training is brutal and they are fearless.
🤔I wonder whose cockiness will be their down fall first?🤭😉Hmmm? I think the fortitude of the soldiers make a big difference! But considering where the big countries supporting Britain are I think the ‘enemy’ is surrounded!
My dad was a ROYAL Marine/ SBS yes SBS Commando (RM 24656) and from the stories he told us that US Marines dont cannot even begin to compare with UK marines. As for our SBS Speical forces the USA has no comparision and the proof is in history. The USA has never won a war on its own-NOT ONE! It also loses against third world nations like Somalia and Afghanistan, whilst the British have won 80% of their wars unaided when fighting first world nations. This is why the Americans when they start a war they literally BEG the British to come in on their side.
You shouldn’t expect USMC to match RMC in the RMC’s role. The RMC are a specialist commando force, the USMC operate tanks, aircraft, etc. Obviously an aviation technician isn’t going to be as good a commando as an actual freaking commando. Or vice versa.
My grandson was 16 when he joined despite he had the qualifications to go to university at 14 13 years later he is now a Captain so proud of him
My son and daughter both severed in the military son in the RAF and daughter in the army. l'm so proud of them both, especially my daughter chosen for guard of honour a the Cenotaph where l live, only female to be chosen.
The U.S. relys on mass fire power, using a platoon to do what the UK would uses a squad for & relys on skill.
We're use to being out numbered and out gunned.
Just Ask the Gurkhas, Any Gurkha is worth 20 marines.
they are some mad lads haha

Americans have better gear and numbers, British have better training. Together we are a force to be recognised.
Delta was modelled on the SAS. Captain Charles Beckwith, a US green beret officer spent time working with SAS as part of an exchange program during the Malay war. He liked what he saw and (eventually) convinced is bosses back home that the US needed a SAS type unit. The selection, training and structure of both units was, and still is very close.
Recently I was told by an old soldier that our Britith troops had rigged up a fake coka cola machine to their APC. Basically a guy inside would pop the drinks out as if it was automated. When the nearby Americans saw this going on they werent happy that our guys had such a machine in the field, lol. They also wanted one.
In the 1930's the US military constructed a plan to annexe Canada. When it was war gamed they shelved it as they worked that the British would send support in terms of men and materiel and would retreat from the main population areas and fight a guerilla war. The estimated cost to the US in lost lives and dollars was so great it would have out weighed any potential gain.
Just to clarify, yes uk allow 16 year olds in the military, however they cannot be deployed to the front line until they are 18
Yes, happened to my father in WWII. He turned 18 along with a lot of other riflemen on the Dominion Monarch in the Mediteranean Sea in 1944. After two years of training in the UK.
You have to remember that Britain has loads of experience at WINNING wars, even against greater numbers but then, the US has experience at friendly fire but that won't help them much.🤣
Especially the opium wars. 20000 chinese soldiers vs 200 i do believe… it was something as ridiculous as that and that was a victory too
I always imagined Obi Wan Nairobi (Christian Craighead) when he got the phone call to save 100's of Kenyans single handed was with his buddy and he turned round and said 'Hold my cuppa mate, ive got a job to do'....
What the British have up their sleeve is the never give up attitude and never make it easy even in the face of death. If they know it's the end they'll laugh it off and give the enemy a very hard time about it. A cornered animal Is a dangerous animal
In the UK, I joined the army aged 15 years in 1971 with parent's written agreement. The increased the age to 16 some years after that.
That was the junior leaders, can't fight until 18 when you go to your unit, same as the new style foundation colleges for school leavers, aged 16 of today.
l joined the Junior Leaders Regt RA at 16 1970, 2 years we were trained to be the future NCO's in the UK military. After passing out after 2 years you joined the regiment wanted to be in. Myself l was in the Royal Artillery (RA).
After basic training, education was taught on military i.e. map reading etc, also taught a trade of your choosing.
To be in combat the age is 18 in the UK, Its true here in the UK we pledge an oath of allegiance to the reigning
monarch, (my case Queen Elizabeth II) not to the government of the day. Now nearly 70 years of age l look back
has if it was yesterday Happy Days.
@@tonydd1735Nice read, hope you enjoyed your career :) Did you train in Kent in the junior leaders.
Its quality that counts, not quantity. There can be no question who wins that competition. the UK every time..
Is it mean of me to point out that America only joined in the war against Germany 2 years before it finished,
While the Uk fought alone in Europe but with help from its Commonwealth. America only entered because
Pearl Harbour was attacked by the Japanese. Have to tell it how it was !
The British are a scalpel and the American's are a chainsaw. Both can be superior, it just depends on the situation. You wouldn't use a chainsaw to do surgery and you wouldn't use a scalpel to cut down a Forrest.
Forrest Gump.. its "forest" :)
@@coling3957 you would be surprised by how little I care.
The US have all the gear but no idea
SNAFU
Ah yes the standard sneering ignoramus...
Monty made that observation in the summer of 1943.
Ok America,what happened in Vietnam and Afghanistan 🤔
Great point!!
And iraq… they invaded and had to get the SAS to get rid of the Air defence forces
Should be added that, having just won a jungle insurgency in Malaya we went "you might want to consider doing it this way", to which the Americans replied "no way, Colonel Kilgore has it totally sussed".
Didn't end well.
A little point here...
During the Falklands Conflict
690 British Paratroopers defeated 1,100 Argentinians.
Numbers dose not always mean better, good training and leadership are better.
This made me chuckle. A friend of mine who had found out that Microsoft did a lot of the US army's tech told me that in the Gulf war a lot of the US troops used to drop a lot of their tech. Which the British would give straight back. It was thought by some that the Microsoft connection might have been the cause of so many friendly fire incidents the US unfortunately caused.
Acctually, the reason the tea making station was put inside the tank was because once, in ww2, a large number of tanks (about a hundred) were parked alongside a road. British crewmen got out of their tanks in to have a brew. Then, about ten German tanks rolled up and destroyed 70% of those tanks. The Germans didn't lose a single one, because none of the crewmen were ready to react. Almost all of the crewmen survived, so the few trucks they also had were stuffed full of people on the way back to their headquarters.
Taking a country is one thing holding it is another. Having a massive military does not always guarantee a win. Ukraine and let's not forget Vietnam
There is a video about how, during military exercises, the UK nuked the US TWICE! xxx
With the Avro Vulkans - there wasn't a third time because the Americans preferred to pretend it didn't happen and, rather than continue to test their defences in the war games, had a hissy fit and wouldn't let the British try again.
ruclips.net/video/-Wx6npt421c/видео.html
We've got the Gurkha's though, enough said. Still rather have the US as allies than as enemies! 🇬🇧🤝🏻🇺🇲
I was in the RAF at 16. We thought the SAS were nuts. I believe British commandoes trained the US Rangers (the guys featured in Saving Private Ryan). in WWII.
Simply put, the brits have 60 allies, we don't need the numbers we needed in the past, we work with many different nations.. why spend a trillion on an army when there is no wars, however since the Ukraine nonsense we are expanding our army and weapons and gear, needs must
A couple of things missed out, the SAS taught Delta Force everything Delta Force knows, but not everything the SAS knows. Yes new recruits could be young but the training is intense and they wouldn't be sent out to fight before they were ready. No mention of the Challenger II? Yes the USA may have more tanks but the UK has the better ones.
Soldiers would frequently trade with soldiers of other nations, things like ration packs etc ... British soldiers had an advantage here as they also traded hot water.
Exactly where is this mythical war taking place? Superiority of numbers does not guarantee you victory if you're the outsider.
just remember it took America EIGHT years to win independence , even with France and Spain as allies. Britain never had more than 30 000 troops in America during the whole Revolution.. When USA declared war on UK in 1812 they invaded Canada and were beaten. the British did not send an army even until 1814 and then captured Washington DC and burned the Whitehouse.. in modern era the Govt has undermined the Armed Forces relentlessly - Tony Blair and Labour hate the armed forces and no wonder forces in Iraq and Afghanistan were under-equipped. cuts are common and British troops learn how to adopt.. US troops have ALWAYS been over-reliant on air power and artillery. sending 4000 Marines in to "assist" the British only inflamed the situation. UK did not want a blood bath , and in fact shortly afterwards were withdrawn, the British public opposed the war and when Blair was found to have sexed-up the Intel, that was game over. every casualty in Afghanistan and Iraq was , alas, for nothing!
"Settle our differences over a nice cup of tea", and "... nothing like a fresh brew to keep an army going" ... aaww how cute. Here in the UK, we know that our friends are fond of us when they poke fun - so now we know ...
The water heater isn't just for tea either, how do you think rations are, or should I say were heated. If can eat and drink in your vehicle you do not have to expose yourself directly to danger. Take a look at survivability of our current Challenger Tanks compared to the Abrams or German Leopards.
The British are trained to survive in their armoured vehicles in the worst possible circumstances. They are equipped and trained to remain sealed in their vehicles for extended periods of time. The vehicles can be sealed up to be safe from nuclear, biological and chemical attacks then if the vehicles are found to be contaminated in any way they are sent into a yard to be decontaminated by other troops wearing their “Noddy suits also known as NBC suits. A number of troops can therefore remain in their base in a state of readiness until they can safely return to normal duties. So they are capable of instantly returning to a contaminated area or being deployed ready to face any challenge and still have troops and equipment on a five minutes battle readiness status.
They said the uk has 227 tanks. That’s completely bogus. We have 227 challenger 2 tanks. But we also have 170 scimitars, and many others totalling 3,640. Also why would tanks be useful. What land is between the us and uk where tanks could be effective?
Also the uk helped the us is the Afghan war as the British were only their to support them and maintain peace. So ehat they said about the Afghan war is completely fictional
A fun what if video. However as a Brit, I gotta say that I doubt our island nation would stop an invasion from the US, although I like to think we'd give an excellent account of ourselves before inevitable defeat.
There is a reason why The USA always want the British with them in combat.
Boiling vessels or (BV's) where pretty much installed into almost all British tanks after the second world war. During the Second world war British tankies would often make brews on a camp fire which obviously made them vulnerable if there was ambushes. So in future designs it was deemed better to have a vessel inside the tank. The vessel obviously boils water so i can be used for boiling rations too. Kind of baffling that not many tanks use them.
I had an acquaintance that was in the Paras they regularly beat the US equivalent Evan when out numbered. We learn from experience when trying to give advice to US Generals they did it there way like Normandy missed the targets with bombs and shells launcher the tanks to far from the beach sunk most of them lesson learnt years earlier at a considerable loss of life and prisoners in 1942 Dieppe
Punctuation helps us to decipher what you have written.
I battle every day and it doesn’t stop me drinking tea
😂
It’s two nuclear powers vs each other so it’s absolutely clear no one wins
My nephew always says we (the Brits) are better friends than enemies he's a senior NCO in a guards regiment in the Household Division ( red tunics and bearskin caps) he's served for 20 years in several different conflict areas When I sarcastically said you would say that he laughed and said yeah course but when we kick a** we REALLY kick a** and the opposition know it so job half done 😊😊 Have a good day love your videos Thank You 👍👍👍👍
You are right, she was in the army during the war. I think the narrator was very biased towards the USA. The British soldiers are more disciplined.
Try the film Ice Cold In Alex a world war 11 film, sums up the British attitude to make do and mend and importance of tea making.
This video was extremely biased. I'll go over the points the video made and give you an actually balanced view.
Britain may have less tanks, but they are actually stronger, faster and have better 'gadgets' on them. It won't displace the 8100 tank gap, but in reality the superiority reduces that gap by a significant amount.
Armoured Vehicles was a stupid comparison, they compared a recon vehicle to an armored troop carrier vehicle. Britain also uses vehicles like the MRAP, including some actual American-made MRAPS. The technology and vehicles are basically the same. The Jackals are more like the American Oshkosh Light Armored Vehicle. Plus, unless America turned in to a nation of terrorists in the last couple of years, I'm not sure how relevant IED protection would be in a full scale war.
That whole 2009 story was entirely made up. In fact, it was the opposite. British forces were encountering much more success at that stage of the war compared to the US, especially when it came to Ground operations. British military units reportedly had to take over entire regions from the Americans due to a lack of American ability.
Yes, the British Army has all kinds of historically oppressed groups, including women, tightly wound in to the fabric of the Armed Forces. Women were a totally accepted part of Military life, and not many British soldiers cared about it, at all - they care much more about your ability to be a soldier than what you have.. down there.
Not really sure what his source on the Alcohol thing was, but it's amazing how he managed to swing alcohol usage from being a positive for the US because it "boosts morale" but when it comes to the UK, it's bad because they're "self-medicating PTSD". The spin on that, this guy should work for a news company.
That whole tea vs coffee debate was useless. Neither affect your combat ability, but both can boost morale. No one side has any noticeable advantage over the other here.
He says the UK Troops are ultimately paid less, but never bothered converting the currencies to prove it, so I'll convert it for him. £20,400, converted to USD is $24,735. That's about $200 more than the US soldier earned, at the time he made the video. He intentionally didn't convert the numbers so that the UK pay for lower ranked soldiers seemed lower.
He mentions how British training is longer, but claims that British training is about the same as American training. This isn't true. In fact, most American servicemen who had an opportunity to go through a British training course would remark about how the British one was harder, tougher or better. In fact, British training isn't even 14 weeks, to join regular Infantry regiments, it's a 26-week course, even longer to become join a parachute or King's Guard regiment. The 14-week figure is for units not expected to see constant combact; such as the Medical Corps, the Music bands, Intelligence, Logistics etc.
The British do indeed allow 16 year-olds to join the Army, HOWEVER: They must be 17 to start the Infantry Training Course, and can not be deployed to frontlines until they are 18. Unless we're in a last-ditch 'throw everything we have at them' style defence, you're not going to see 16 year-old soldiers in a battle.
The Special Forces thing was selective as hell. He's acting like the SAS and Delta Force were the only Special Forces for those nations. They're not. And, SAS training you doesn't mean you're now as good as the SAS, that's not how that works. The British also have SBS, who best compare to the SEALs, as well as the Royal Marine Commandos (not Special Forces tho) who best compare to something like the Green Berets or the US Army Rangers. In a direct fight between the comparative Special Forces, it's obvious the British version would easily dominate in most battles, mainly due to better training and discipline.
I'm not sure why he bought up the Commander-in-Chief thing considering neither would actually lead the war, but I'll humour it. He sells the US quite short there, surprisingly, but a lot of US Presidents have had military experience. Most British monarchs have because that is the tradition, a lot of US Presidents did because it was their duty, or the right thing to do. He sells several historical Presidents quite dirty there. One which springs to mind is JFK, who served in the Pacific in WWII, and whose PT Boat even sank at one point.
A couple of things he doesn't bring up, mainly because they're not Infantry but still;
1. Royal Navy may also be outnumbered, but the ships and crew are far superior and will put up a hell of a fight, at the very least inflicting heavy casualties on the US Navy.
2. Royal Airforce is also in the same boat (ha, get it?); heavily outnumbered but in superior aircraft with superior training - it wouldn't be easy for the US Military to control Britain's skies.
Finally for Pro-UK, a point he doesn't mention is the Commonwealth. Even if we imagine NATO is staying neutral, he completely glosses over the fact that Britain would have allies of varying strength dotted all over the world, ready to at the very least be a pain in America's side, and tie down a lot of their resources. A lot of Commonwealth nations might not love Britain, but they certainly like us more than the US, and would probably prefer the current status quo over Americans taking over everything.
In terms of Pro-US additions; he doesn't mention military industrial capacity. A war between the UK and US wouldn't be a short one, regardless who was winning. I know he was just comparing the soldiers, but something the US would have going for them is industrial capacity. It's pretty dang obvious the US would easily be able to out-manufacture the British military complex; you can tell by the gaps in numbers for vehicles, as he does mention.
I could tell you too were also noticing how obviously bias and nonsensical the video was, good on you. A lot of Americans tend to take such pro-American propaganda (that's what it is; lies to sell the narrative that America is better at everything) at face value, I'm glad you were a little sceptical of it. The whole video is obviously off, he says it's comparison between the soldiers, but then starts comparing their vehicles, hot drinks, their leader-.. he goes on complete tangents in some ways but neglects to mention other more obvious or pressing things.
PS. I'm not saying Britain would win the hypothetical war. It probably wouldn't. Be it'd be extremely close, and definitely a tough fight for the US, not even close to a steamroll as the video seems to suggest.
So much of this is wrong
But I'll leave you with one sentence that sums up both militaries
In the US you man the equipment, in the UK you equip the man...
I've seen US troops go to absolute shit when their tech doesn't work, whereas the UK always train on worst case scenario and learn to adapt without it
My son joined army cadets at 12 years old, joined the territorial army at 17 when he was at uni. Joined the regular army after graduating with honours on the Thursday signed up on the monday.
He served in all the hot spots of the late 80's all through 90's and halfway through 20's he retired due to a wound received that made it impossible to stay in active service. He immediately signed up as an instructor with his old cadet regiment.
He often was asked to be the escort to several American dignitaries and soldiets of rank who when on front line visits 9 times out of ten requested British escorts due to their high levels of front line service
Hence the bayonet training which is still done to this day by the British forces.
If you join up at 16 you are classed as boy soldier, they go to school and serve as an apprentice to different trades or a bandsman no action untill they are 18
I served as a Medic with the Royal Air Force and did two exercises with the American army and air force respectively. Frankly I found them very arrogant and boastful with little respect for me and my team. This soon changed when we beat them hands down in the Medical exercises. They through specialists and kit at any and all situations but we had the much better training and that stood out. My Med team was 17 against well over 40 yanks.
When, during an operational deployment, anything medical cropped up, RTA's or other accidents, it always the RAF teams called very rarely the Americans.
All in all, in my humble but slightly bias opinion, we are slightly better. I even heard a Lt. Colonel USAF say "If the Brits had our equipment they'd unstoppable!"
Lol, I love your wincing here, gentlemen feel uncomfortable bragging and you seem like a gentleman.
Insulting the UK doesn’t ingratiate my view of America. This is insulting. By the way I used to live where The Royal Marines did beat up. Not a single American could finish the introductory three week course. Whilst I lived there. In fact one didn’t even last the first day. Fed up with the USA insults, not just the Military but all aspects of life.
$49bn? It's been a good few years since the UK military budget was that small. This video is extremely skewed.
You should watch when the uk beat the us twice in a training battle
Going big and go in strong and then leave your entire arsenal to the terrorists you have been fighting. The same story of the US since the end of WW2
British soldiers can join at 16 but cannot deploy abroad until they are 17.5 yrs
Anyone heard of Vietnam .the war us Brits did not indulge in.
Let's look at WWII Us Brits were stuck in the Germans like a porn stars todger in a slapper. In come the Americans and take the glory after we softened them up. That's what I like to think anyway 😁 We set them up, they knocked them down. In the long run it's probably best we're allies.
For context, you can join at 16, But you get sent an Army Foundation collage for 1 year and finish your basic training at 17. When you get to your unit, you will have a 10pm Curfew that is managed by the Station guard commander and you wont be permitted to deploy on any operations until your 18. The UK does not send Boy soldiers off to War.
Another common factor, is that the UK always does the hard work and then The US swoops in and takes the glory. Why cant you turn up first for once and actually earn the reputation you give yourselves. Omaha beach was a US disaster purely because you refused to take the 'funnies' we offered you. Amphibious tanks that would have saved your thousands of troops having to wade into shore and being slaughtered. You always think that biggest and loudest is best but you know what? Best is best, and thats what we are. The SAS is a level above Delta force , as the saying goes " We taught you everything you know" , BUT " we didnt teach you everything we know"
Hey from.the uk if you want to know a bit more about the deeper side of English history react to the British crusade against slavery or every country the English have ever conquered both very good videos if you want something wacky to react to why not try top 10 strangest UK laws still in place today hope that helps love the channel
We put our money into trade (bribery), diplomacy (corruption), and avoiding wars (espionage).
Don't forget the Strategic Disinformation Initiative. Works well, doesn't it? ;-)
The tea making is true, you have to understand also, tea is good for morral, and your not always fighting,
Germany thought the same thing 😊
The BV or boiling vessel as its known in the British tank was directly copied into the American tank.
02:47 that look, hilarious 😂😂😂😢
UK military can't send any recruit to a frontline until they're 18.
An interesting video to watch is When Britain nuked America twice.
It's worth mentioning that GB has lots of near allies with strong ties across Europe, teamwork makes the dream work and puts us all on equal footing with the U.S. Also the tea drinking is funny but coffee is more popular these days in the U.K.
Voiceover Man has no Idea Why Squaddies Drink, Its because they can!
We were in Vietnam in the 1940's fighting and beating the Communist then returned it to the French . Fought Communist in Malaysia jungle again we won different methods to the French and USA
You lost The Vietnam war.
When we left Vietnam the Viet min was not the same we gave it back to the French before 1950 they messed-up in 1954 then left the USA had 20 years and massive force they still messed-up by doing it wrong after all Malaysia and Singapore are not Communist that was a place to learn like the Jungle in Burma fighting the Japanese Army and driving them back
tea equals TEAmwork nuff said
Us Brits are your cousins and allies. The sums in the differences are due to the UK being a small group of islands . The United States is massive . Good luck to anyone trying to out drink the Scottish.Lots of love from England .
Change 2025 to 1925-1930 and there was a very real possibility of this scenario occurring.Love your videos mate :)
TEA is our secret weapon!
We also have the Commonwealth on our side.
I've drank tea in a firefight. Got to have a brew.
Things every Brit enjoys
1.) Drinking
2.)Fighting
3.) Drinking & Fighting
Im ex Royal Navy, the saying 'all the gear and no idea' was used in jess about the USA lol
I think I remember you saying in another video that you were an actor. I think if you came to England you'd have no problems finding acting jobs. If you ever are in England I recommend watching a Shakespeare play at the globe theatre. It's certainly an experience. But there will always be roles for American characters and you'd be ideal. The west end is like an epicentre of creativity and acting talent and I think you'd be in your element there. But even if you just come over for a visit I highly recommend the globe. Anyone with acting as their passion simply has to experience this place.
Some years ago now the RAF led two successful nuclear bombing raids on the USA. Have a look on RUclips for some of the details.
i have not bothered watching this because its made by an american , so the insults will be typical of americans 😆
There's a lot of "Flag waving" on this channel you're watching. I'm pretty sure it's only popular as it's in cartoon format. Much of this is also "limited" in its truth? No mention of any new or moderised vehicles and weapons comming into service later on either? Ranks? You can not compare them? As a Sergeant I had far more years and experience than the equivalent rank in the US military. As an example, we had professional Corporals with fifteen or more years service blocked from using US Sgts clubs when working together and these Cpls were instructing the American Servicemen!
They can't even get the flag the right way up. 😞
Section commanders . British infantry secret weapon 😎👌 mobile strategic intel assault plan specialists
Yay!!🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧💪
You might not need a penis to pull a gun trigger, but you will need extensive muscle mass to carry an injured man double your size off the frontline,lol
To pass British Army training you have to be able to do just that, irrespective of gender, if you can't do it you fail training and you're out.
this video is laughable.
did Napoleon and Hitler not do the same maths?
Did Vietnam not have the same odds against them as the UK?
The UK would not attempt to occupy the USA but do not write off the UK, if the USA would try a "Vietnam" on it.
The character behind the animation has made a career out of insulting the British.
Re. Women in UK combat arms… It’s theoretically allowed, but fitness standards mean that there are virtually none. You might not “need a penis to pull a gun trigger” but you do need an awful lot of muscle to carry a combat load.
The point is the sas don't tell everything
The proudest moment was when you found out our troops can make tea👏😏
This was embarrassing to watch for both Americans and British...very disrespectful of both military members, cringe worthy
The British Armoured Vehicles all have a secret weapon, the BV!
Seems like a lot of psychological warfare on RUclips 😂
