Not gonna lie. The white camo uniforms look the best!!! 🔥
I advise American fascists not to invade Russia.
Now you and your fat friends have another look to cosplay
Just clicked to cmment I would not mind one of those jackets 😅
Very cool but nothing beats that desert Camo💪

My dad went to Norway to train as a ski trooper in the Marine Corps in 1966. He went from Panama to Norway to Vietnam in one year time. Talk about a big difference in climate.
So how many Vietnamese children he killed?
Now millions of migrants go threw panama so much different training spots changed now we're training for Russia in russia

I did NATO exercises in Norway back in 2022 probably the most fun I had in the marines.
Stop to provoke Russia
Those training scenarios always show how awful American troops are.
Every year when you guys come to Finland to train with us, you lose every single battle simulation. Can't even do basics correctly.
@@anonnymous31 That’s funny because we annihilated every Finnish unit we came across in cold response. The nato observers had to constantly tell our COs to slow down because we were outpacing everyone. I respect your military as well as every other military that participated but please stop with the bs, we’re on the same side and from what I saw of the units from Finland that we came across you should be lucky that’s how it is.
@@anonnymous31 a lot of those exercises are set for one side to lose, that's why one side often dominates another.
@@anonnymous31We pay for your defense budget bud
This exercise took place as far north as Northern coast of Alaska. I am a Norwegian National Guardsman who recently stood guard duty in the harbour were the USS Gunston Hall docked prior to this exercise. The ship I imagine these marines embarked from.
The soldiers families and the American tax payer should know that their soldiers in regards to proper clothing are very ill-equiped for fighting war in Scandinavia in the winter months.
Just when did my guard duty with them, we had to keep them warm in hour cars and so on. Provide hot drinks and so on. With pleasure of course, cause they are all really nice people. Those I met anyway.
I remember speaking to one of their officers that the soldiers the dispatched out in the cold with us. Required more clothing that a t-shirt, summer uniform, a fleecejacket, thin mittens and gloves. I am not surprised of a few of them cought a severe cold or pnumonia.
Our winter gear is light years better.
As a fellow Norwegian home guardsmen who took part in a guard duty for the first time as my first mission for the home guard. I was formally a home guard youth who took a 3 week course and that is how i got into the home guard.
But i was on a mission in trondelag to watch over when the us marines dropped off some water tanks and trucks to take part of exercise some place close and i had fun on that mission even though I knew none of the squad mates before but i quickly got to know them and get into the rutine the most fun was talking to some of the yanks (american) whenever they were going to town to drink at a bar or sleep at a hotel and it was quite a sight.
First off was that i was suprised that most of them were small compared to when you see them on the news ans such i always saw them as big tall muscle men but those i saw were muscle men but smaller than i had thought they would be.
Funny thing about the yanks who went to town to drink is that when they came back to the guard gate one of the yanks had a little to much to drink that night so he ended up puking from the back seat of the renting car they drove and it reached all the way to the front window of the car so on the next day we could see him on the cameras cleaning the living heck out of the car. Poor guy!
And other fun time was when another group of yanks came back to the main gate the car they drove had spike free tires so when they approched the gate the car slipped on the ice and they managed to crash the car on the gate and left a dent on it but sadly i wasn't around when those 2 events happend as i had the day shift and it happened on the night shift.
One thing i just have to say about the american clothing for winter operation is that the marines and navy guys probally were at a warm place like texas or Florida when the ship departed so its likly they forgot to pack proper winter clothing but i must say that they could handle the cold pretty well considering they only wore a t shirt under their uniforms while i wore a net upper and lower under cotton upper and lower and i was freezing on some days when i was standing guard over the gate.
Great Comment! Servus! What if US become freind with India and Pakistan. Then we'll be good!!!
Russian Psyop
its better that they figure that out now than in an actual battle
@MacSquire2 I'm not sure about Scandinavia but I know in France in winter gets 20 degrees fahrenheit. You would need heavy coat.
Thank you for serving. ❤

Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the USA taking part, over a hundred aircraft, over 50 ships and boats.
Sweden and Finland have got right in without even stumbling, and the same day Sweden joins the alliance they coordinate with German and Belgian fighter jets to intercept Russian planes flying through the Baltic Sea with no logged flightplan, their competence and immediate integration is impressive.
I mean to be fair, Sweden and Finland have been with the West at least ever since the fall of the Soviet Union. Taking part in exercises and guarding their airspaces is pretty normal
@@cassu6more accurately Sweden has always been 'a western nation', but Finland has always been a nation between east and west, but has also always had to play things safe with Russia, while ideologically aligning alot more with the west.
Finland has never wanted to be 'in the east' and Russia has coerced Finland many times.
what I'm getting at is that there has always been a competent Finnish military, which exists only because of Russia.
guarding the airspace is everyday and Russia sometimes deliberately violates Finnish airspace. Though I doubt they'll do so as easly now.
Thanks, bot
This is all LAMMEEEE
Why y'all acting like this is cool or something to look forward to?

He will be flattened by Russia unfortunately
SO glad I didn't do anything like that when I was in the Marines. But at that age I didn't mind the cold weather so much as I do now.
I dunno...if you have to choose between grimy sweating and total lack of sleep at 29 stumps or putting on your happy suit in Hokkaido for some winter cross country skiing and shooting....suddenly learning how to make a snow cave with a candle and eating the white bag MRE's doesn't seem so bad.

This is NATO's Nordic Response exercise, which takes place every 2 years in Norway. This year's Nordic Response exercise involves over 20,000 troops, over 50 ships and over 100 aircraft from 13 NATO countries. Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland (new member joined NATO in 2023), France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden (new member joined NATO in 2024), United Kingdom and United States.

Thanks for your service 🫶🏾God bless you all
Marines have been training there for decades, I was there several times back in the 80's. It's nothing new.
But now it's sensationalistic and good for ratings.
And that's the real war. To the news biz. ALL the news biz.
Literally said first time since the cold war, cold war literally lasted until what, the early 90’s? No one said this was new lol
The general training isn't new, the Royal Marines also train in the Norwegian Arctic.
However it's the scale of this exercise that is significant, it's a return to the large exercises of the 80's preparing for large scale conflicts and proper NATO integration of forces, not just small exercises.
NATO already knows how to do exercises like this, but they're taking them even more seriously and doing it on a larger scale.
Memories...
Awesome to see so many countries come together for cold-weather exercises
fAR away from the seriouS points ...
The Marines just don’t miss
Every uniform is so good
Gotta protect those arctic resources.
And borders..
@@rebeccadubois8270we can’t even protect our own border. It’s never been about borders

Thank youbrothers and sister from America for visiting and being our allies. Your training here in Norway means a lot for our security and friendship.
As former Canadian Infantry, I can say that training with the Norwegians back in 2012 was some really fun times. Canadians are no stranger to the cold. Winter warfare training is some of the best trying you can get as long as you utilize your kit properly to stay warm.

I remember a comment from a U.S. Marine during a white out in Norway, "Puerto Rico was never like this." My Puerto Rican cousin fought under similar conditions at the Chosin Reservoir in Korea.
Looks just like the training I did at Ft Wainwright and Ft Greely AK.
From playing army men in boxers to sitting in front of the tv playing cod now they’re training out in the cold you go boys ☺️
Nice. Good to show force to Putin. That is the language he understands. Greeting from Finland.
These tarkov updates lookin good. Like the new USEC uniforms too.

Man they look so majestic 😮
I hope Finland’s inclusion in nato will provide us with even more capabilities and training for our marines as they have undoubtedly the best equipped and prepared cold weather force
USA has been training in Finland from 2016, there is bilateral DCA between USA and Finland.
I think US troops actually have better gear for cold than finnish conscripts. Could change now due to the NCU or M23 uniform stuff. Still not all troops get the stuff.
@@Robss6969 What makes you think that? Just curious.
Being equipped with about the best gear that conscripts get in Finland excluding special forces for a year as well as seeing US troops and their gear. @@duhni4551
I’m not sure what’s worse, storming a beach during the winter, or doing a JFE into the snow at night with combat equipment
What a time to be alive 😮
Reminds me of the British meeting up with German forces at narvik in WWll. It was a disaster. Churchill was overconfident about his navy not needing air support, but when the lufwaffe showed up the vessels were sitting ducks!!!
Interesting. What was the name of the battle

Definitely a change, I'm not sure the US has ever fought in the frost before.
Full scale war? Not since we were our own enemies.
People always forget about Korea...
Korean War got a little chilly at times
The US hasn't faced a peer enemy with air defense, jets and artilley that's as good as what we've got since WWII - if that can be compared to modern warfare. It's not going to be pretty. This is a huge mistake - except it's not a mistake.
