I’m gonna explain why this is such a big thing…all UK military sign an oath to fight for "queen and country". She is the commander in chief of The Army, Navy & Air Force. When you disrespect her, you disrespect them and their fallen comrades. She reigned for 70 years and was respected world wide for what she done, her charity work & help building structure in third world UK colonies, have you heard of the common wealth? And the thing she is probably most respected for is her military service, at the age of 18 she voluntarily put herself forward when she didn't need to & during the time of the "Blitz" when London was being bombed by the Germans, loads of high Net Worth individuals left the City and fled to safety. The Queen didn't. She stayed in London to send a message to the Germans and to the British people, that message being, we are gonna stand and fight. The monarchy has done terrible things in their history, they are nearly 1000 years old, but that does not for one second discredit her, or which she done for the UK. God Save The Queen🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Theres a story that when training together The navy seals put a sign up outside their barracks saying "second to none" ....so the SAS put a sign up outside their barracks saying ..... "none"
@@selwynowen6213That’s why when English Actress Joanna Lumley heard the British Government were trying to throw the Gurkhas out of the Country she went to War with Downing Street bcos as she said “ They fought and died for us yet despite bringing everyone else into this Country you are trying to rid the people who made us proud ??? “ No way she said and marched with the Gurkhas to Downing Street with a Petition, She won !!! Well Done Joanna .
When HM the Queen, was asked in the event of her passing, which aircraft would she like to be flown back to London. Her aides recommended a few aircraft. HM declined and requested her remain be transported by RAF C17 Globemaster. Her aides quickly try to disuade her and that the C17 was a big, grey transport aircraft and not befitting HM. She sternly said said "if its good enough for my boys, its good enough for me". Hence when HM remains return to London, the RAF flight call sign kittyhawk was used for the last time.
Just like sheep fucking jokes about kiwis those jokes the territory of Australians and kiwis and it emotionally damaging enough when we do let alone someone from a country that had its White House burnt by fucking Canadians
If you think about it. British moved to America, got tired of their own shit, fought against themselves, and started calling themselves something different.
Not really, america was more like all continents come together and pressed into one area. Not just the British. That would actually be more accurate with Australia but still not entirely.
Say you and your brother joke about your mother, and you both laugh. Now imagine you say the same joke and the random kid sitting next to you laughs. It's not the same
Theres a famous quote from a US Navy Seal when asked how good the British SAS are, he said “if we were going after the same target, we (the American) would repell from a black hawk onto the building roof, abseil the outer building, break the window, disperse our smoke Granada’s, enter the building and secure it. Then when the smoke clearled we’d find the Brits already there, sitting at the kitchen table with a cup tea waiting for us”.
Cause the British went in the front door cause they can't afford a helicopter, made q cup of tea and sat down when they found no civilians to shoot in the back
Sounds great thanks for the quote. I will add for clarification that different units and team to team really varies on speed and precision on CQB/CQC and how to infill on a target fast as hell. All awesome guys and units at the end of the day.
As a former serving Commando 148 BTY (Royal Marines) I was based in RM Poole and trained with SBS and SAS (Brothers are still serving as SBS and SAS) and we go out on exercise with them regularly and carry out parachute jumps into the sea, a real bond. We (the British) have love for our American Brothers. Had the pleasure parachuting and working with Navy Seals and USMC 1st and 3rd anglico operational and in california camp Pendleton doing our jumps, great times even when playing basketball or in true British style putting the gloves on for a friendly punch up. True character building. As for our late Queen, nothing will compare to her. Rest in peace boss.
Americans feel 1 of 2 ways about the queen and both have to do with jealousy in a manner. But idk why because anyone who’s lived a fractions of her life would have nothing to criticize nor hate unless you fall into the category of “indoctrinated Brownshirt and you fall for conspiracy theories” I hope she has made to to a better place and can see the world from her sisters company and fondness
Met the Queen she was really nice to me and everyone there. Her aids were telling her to hurry up and leave us. She gave them a look and she spent a few hours with us. The queen had a lot of time for the military guys and family's.
Probably the only genuine and beautiful aspect mentioned in regards to the queen about her character that would support the idea of why people would firmly fight for her honor other than what many others have said which is she's royalty and nice pretty broadly.
@@harveysanchez6993 Thanks. It was just like having a little chat with your nan. She had time for everyone. Laughing, joking and seemed genuinely interested in talking to and listening to people. Seeing that side of the Queen it is very understandable that people in the military had a lot of time and respect for her as well.
Swore an oath to serve under her majesty when I joined the Royal Marines Commandos. Had a great career and travelled all over the globe, when she sadly passed a few months before I left service. I was fortunate enough to be part of the guard of honour at her funeral. What a monarch. Proud to have served under her majesty. TTQ 🇬🇧
What a humble guy, the sheer panic on his face when he mentioned joking about the queen, must have brought back a scary memory about having a s.a.s man about to destroy you. Fair play brother
I was on her honour guard, both times she visited Calgary, Canada. Met her the second time, for a reception, at the Museum of the Regiments in Calgary. Spoke to her. She had class. I would have put myself in harms way to protect her. ☺️☺️☺️🤠🤠🤠🤠 At the Parade the first time in Calgary, she saw that after the Regiments had done their march past, the WW2 vets, in their Blazers and Berets, or kilts, were either walking along slowly, or hobbling on canes, or pushed in wheel chairs, behind the Regiments, that without asking or waiting for anyone, she got out from behind the dias, walked down the stairs in the stands through astonished crowds, to the parade square where she stopped the vets, went up to every single one, returned their salutes, shook the vets hands and spoke to everyone of them and thanked them for their service. There were also some vets who struggled to stand up from their wheel chairs, in pain, who shrugged off assistance from others to come to attention to salute her. All standing a little straighter, proud of the recognition she bestowed on them. What Monarch has done the same??? 😳☺️☺️☺️ The combined security the British, RCMP and local police were having minor or major heart attacks. This was a Queen in every sense of the word, acted and behaved with Charisma, Humble yet still garnering Loyalty. Brings tears to my eyes, just remembering the Event. Yes, a Very Classy person ... she will be remembered. Her Husband??? A thoroughly dispicable man. He could duck like everyone else ... he was hitting on every female in the room at the reception. 😳🤯🤮🤮🤮
the RCMP escorted the Queen's coffin to Windsor Chapel recently.. and then again, escorting the King to his coronation.. seeing this line of gigantic RCMP horses leading the procession sort of rammed it home our own horsemen play second fiddle to the Canadians but that's ok 🙂
I loved Philip. A posh cunt but very forthright. Would always say the first thing that popped into his head which resulted in many diplomatic incidents. Some of his quotes are classics.
The Ukrainian commandos are better than American or British commandos because American and British commandos haven't fought the real war for a long time.

One thing I love about American special forces they are very open about who they respect and it always seems to be the British SAS and SBS. Thank you for your honesty. Delta Team six are amazing which I’m sure all your SF are. God saved the queen. 🫅 Love from England 🏴
@@skampy134 no, they set the standard. Insane success rate, created the flashbang, gave it free to all other special services and taught them how to deal with plane hostage situations which they, the sas, were the first to figure out a solution for. There's just so many impressive stories about the sas and sbs, even after they retire like the one single sas guy at that hotel. I get that it's hard for some americans to praise anyone that isn't them because they are hard conditioned to believe no matter what that they are the best even when they rarely are, but it's undisputed that the SAS is the best of the best, and it's a good thing it's them because they are clearly all about cooperating, and while I'm at it, they've helped train most american special forces, just saying. It's not about ego or pride, they just fucking hard like that. anyone worth their salt has to consider SAS very hard for best special forces, they are trained to an insane level even in counter intelligence and interogation. It includes ghurka's in there, and ghurka's are impressive as can be.
Also many of the special forces are models after the SAS, including delta force. SAS have earned their reputation, which is usually "the best of the best".
@@nameisbad I didn’t say they weren’t good. They just said they’re not the standard. Just because delta force is modeled after them doesn’t mean the delta force isnt better than them. They are the premier special forces standard. Anyone in the British military can become sas, delta has to come to you, the SAS are good but delta is just better
I think stick to your video games mate, what makes the beat is not just how strong they are now but how strong they have bee consistently over their history, their success rate alone is staggering compared to other SF. They've earnt their salt, you can't take that away from them and their reputation given by many other SF over the years was literally: the best of the best.
@@TheIceman567 cool👍, went to America when alot younger traveling , everyone was very kind and helpful . I like USA very much and as a little extra My Grandma also dated a soldier from the 101st 506th during ww2 when they were stationed in uk , so that adds a bit extra for me 🙂🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🍻
the Queen wasnt just the head of state, she also represented the traditions of Great Britain and was also the head of a religion, The Church of England, theres a reason people still respect monarch's
respect for a queen? sorry, but I don't really think blind faith in a "leader" that probably doesn't give a sh*t about you and definitely doesn't even know you exist cool or "respectful"
Started working with an ex Coldstream Guard recently but he was South African. He said on day one if you have views on the royal family keep them to yourselves he wasn’t having anyone disrespect or joke about them and he was deadly serious like he’d kill a man 😂….. no one said a word !
@@M4A1MA5TER It's ok little guy, I know you come from a country with no culture and no history so you struggle to come to terms with it, don't worry your little brain about it too much.
I served in the British Army for 13 years in the Irish Guards. I can say this, ask most British Soldiers, not just in the elite Regiments like the Guards and SAS, they will tell you they fought for the Her Majesty, not those bumbling idiot politicians.
I have a booklet of advice that was given to US troops arriving in Britain in 1942. It covered all sorts of things from driving, to British money, to terminology. At the end, it had a list of do's and don'ts and in capital letters it said NEVER, EVER CRITICISE THE KING OR QUEEN.
As a British service member, our oath is to the monarchy, not the government (or the British people for that matter) it's the King now, but it was the Queen when I was in. We swore to defend Her Majesty in person, crown AND dignity. Queen Elizabeth II was probably the most respected monarch in British history, and any self-respecting British Service member won't be shy about living up to their oath.
As an Australian police member who swore an oath to the monarchy, I'll protect the weak who make pissweak comments on here...because they're pissweak, and need protection...because they're pissweak...and twice as yellow...
I called the Queen a dike in a bar full of Brits, in Spain in 1989. My buddy and I had to fight back to back to make it to the door. When we made it to the sidewalk, I ran so fast that I’d lost my shoes. By the time I stopped running, all that remained of my socks was the elastic part that rests above the ankle. Lesson learned. There are no Spaniards in Spain. It’s all Brits, Germans and Dutch.
My dad, brother and I got into a bar fight with some brits during rally week in Ireland cause I called her a cu#t. It didn't go well for the 4 brits in an Irish bar.
@@murphy9924 lol I’ll bet. Irish don’t play. I honestly had no idea we were in a bar full of Brits. A girl said something smart to my buddy, he asked why she was so hostile, she let it be known that she’s British. Intent on letting her know that I wasn’t impressed, I said “well your queen is a dike” just as the loud music stopped. You’d have thought I’d used a PA system, it was so loud. Suddenly, the building shook as at least 30 British men jumped to their feet at once. We did more damage to more of them but we did it while in a full retreat.
Even though the Queen is no longer with us. We still hold her as our Boss and many veterans acknowledge Charles as king but the Queen will for ever be our No.1 Boss
That's because alot of those guys have met the Queen and been treated very well by her when being invited for medal ceremonies at Buckingham Palace and always find it a massive point of pride.
If you watch the full interview, you’ll learn that this dude was seriously injured by a VBIED. It caused a TBI and he talks about how it’s affected him. Said he’s never been the same since and it caused him to have to medically retire from the Navy.
A lot of Americans don’t understand it’s not the individual but it’s what the queen/king represent they are a representation of our national identity and national pride. It’s not just a prime minister/president type figure that can be disrespected/criticised it’s much deeper than that for us.
@@herb2078 It's not that we don't undersrand it herb, we reject it. I'm not saying you shouldn't do it or be that way, that's who you are, I get that. What I'm saying is we reject the notion that one person should be this undying symbol and the manifestation of all power. We fought a war over it. To us, royalty is stupid.
I served 20 years in the royal navy , it was my privilege to serve the sbs and the sas as best i could . Amazing men , god save the queen, a true lady of the first order . Rip .
It’s like the grandmother of the family; we all crack little jokes about her but we hear a joke come from someone outside the family and we have to stand the ground our majesty protected for years on end without questioning
Price was based on the founder of the Special forces. SAS. They weren't even a thing until the Iranian embassy siege. They laid the groundwork for the best operators in the world.
I watched another interview with a Navy Seal. Navy Seals (including the one interviewed) and CIA operatives were pinned down, moments from death by roughly 100 taliban. They had to call in the British SAS to come get them, and they succeeded. He continued to say how he was lucky enough to train with the British MI6, who actually teaches the American Special Forces on how to operate undercover. He said the British intelligence and their special forces really are the best in the world.
What makes a greater warrior is a warrior who picks his fights... and knows when it's a fight not worth fighting... this is what makes US special forces brilliant because they don't boast they're the best, they're humble about it and they will openly say 22reg Is the best... and that deserves respect and shows that they are true warriors... especially knowing they come from America and well MERICAAA is "the best at everything"
not picking a fight with a potential enemy (who you think might kick your ass), and instead picking fights with enemies who you think that you can win, spells out COWARDICE to me!!..
The queen was the nation's sweet old grandma. She'd come on TV every Christmas and wish us all well and good luck in the new year. You can't beat wholesome as fuck grandma.
@Dacijo yeah thats like the absolute bare minimum, she doesnt deserve to be lauded because she worked hard to treated soldiers with respect. Most people do that.
@@lockey88 "Her Majesty carried out more than 21,000 engagements" Sorry, I said worked very hard, that was an under statement - she worked much harder than that. Most people do not work very hard.
No disrespect, but he doesn't fear "those guys." He, as an elite ST6 member, doesn't fear them. The difference is that he respects them as they are essentially the creators of the modern special forces. I can assure you that no American Special Forces would fear anybody on the planet. While they may respect them (SAS, SBS), I can assure you that they are not afraid of them.
The picture of the SAS in the desert in Africa, with the original members includes my friends Uncle, Prvt Henderson, he was killed on his way home in Italy by a car bombing. He was an original member of the SAS with Stirling and Paddy Maine. God bless sir x
In Iraq, a yank colleague showed me a small business card that he was issued upon arrival in theater, on one side, "don't gamble with the brits, don't drink with the brits, don't fight with the brits." on the back end, "you will lose on all three." still makes me laugh.
When you join the British military, in my case, the Royal Marines, on day 2 (of nine months) recruit training, you have to swear an oath to Queen (in my time 2004) and country. From the moment you attest, till the day you ‘TX’ you are government property, and go without complaint wherever her government deems your presence necessary. Oddly enough, it’s the one time in my life that I felt a sense of duty and usefulness. I earn 5x a month what I did back then now, but I’m not sure I’ll ever feel the sense of pride and fulfilment that I did as, essentially, a tool with a serial number.
all i read was "blahblahblahblahblahblahblah" queen. man oh man you brits make the Queen sound like a female version of GOD good job fighting those fake wars, and NEVER FORGET America has the #1 military and we will f*ck up any country
When you join the armed forces in the uk or the common wealth (Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Nepal.. ext) you don’t swear allegiance to the flag or a politician you swear allegiance to the queen or now the king
as an airborne recon US plane aircrew guy, I will say the Aussies gave no fucks of any country I worked with. The UK was aggressive. they weren't about "arresting" bad guys. Fuckin take em out.. but with the full force of drones, helicopters, and the highest level of military power. The Aussies would literally go individually through high grass and be like, "tell us where they are mate!" and just go into anything with literally no other intel. "I saw a guy run in there!" and they would just crocodile hunter their way into the unknown without their team. Just... leeroy jenkins that shit.
I just spent a week digging into the New Guinea campaign in WW2 before the U.S. showed up and they grabbed recruits off the fuckin street to stop the Japs coming over the Kokoda trail - the Japanese could not beat the average Aussie circa 1943
@bobbywright8778 correct. But technically the Australian counterparts are called the SASR. Special Air Service Regiment. They also have the 1st and 2nd Commando Regiments. Which are also Australian Special Forces. I qualified to apply for the Commandos back when I was younger.
As somebody thats likely worked with other nato countries, who are the best military wise? Obviously you guys are #1 and Russia/china/India aren't close, but is there any other countries military that you think are very good?
The queen was the one royal almost everyone respected. She didn’t abuse her power, she went about her role very diplomatically & always put the countries interests before her own. Which, btw, is very rare.
She just acted all polite quaint nice and didn't have any Scandals. She was born at the turn of the century so she was probably a terrible person. Let's just be honest.
@@lukedoesbutter - she did plenty as a non-executive head of state. Unknown to you, she once prevented one African nation from invading another. The African nation that wanted to invade its neighbour was governed at the time by a murderous madman. Have you done anything as impressive or as beneficial to millions of ordinary people as this in your lifetime?
It seemed that Queen if you look at her past she was literally the most virtuous leader in the European American nations she was a truly good mechanic an amazing public servant
Uk has politicians in office too. The queen is just a physical embodiment of what you yanks would call uncle sam, and everything your country stands for.
@@AbsolutesausageJockey Its incorrect that I wouldn't speak badly of the Queen to a soldier? Wow. I'd love to see you prove that lol, but nah I understand your point - you incorrectly think I said something about how soldiers view royalty - I did not. I said "I would never speak badly of her to a soldier" and that is a fact. I would not. You can argue about why but I didn't share why, so it's pointless. I do get your point, it just doesn't really apply to my comment. If it's true they don't like her then they probably shouldn't have signed up for fight in her name.

@@seanclarey983 totally agree, I have the utmost respect for both but especially the Ghurkas, their huge contribution towards helping the British is often overlooked.
Except for the Royal Navy's special forces unit, the Special Boat Service (SBS). They are actually even more highly trained than the SAS. Although they originally had separate selection courses, nowadays both SAS and SBS candidates go through "special forces selection". Having successfully completed SF selection (which lasts 6 months) SAS candidates are then "badged" and sent to one of the SAS squadrons (although training is ongoing). SBS candidates, however, are not badged until they have successfully completed a second period of selection, comprising a further period of gruelling training, this time in maritime warfare. This includes, parachuting into the sea, deep diving, infiltration and exfiltration from submerged submarines, underwater demolition, sea and estuary canoeing and using various amphibious craft, boarding ships at sea, etc. They also at times participate in land-based operations. SBS operatives took part in operations in Iraq and Afghanistan alongside their SAS colleagues. As one SBS guy said - "We can do everything the SAS can do, AND walk on water...".
@@seanclarey983 Actually, the SBS are even more highly trained than the SAS. See my comment to @rjim 1. And although the Gurkhas are an awesome fighting force, they are not a special forces unit. The only special forces in the British military are the 22 SAS Regiment, the Royal Navy's special forces unit, the Special Boat Service (SBS), the Special Reconnaissance Regiment (SRR) and the Special Forces Support Group (SFSG).
I guess it's the same about if you disrespected the American flag... i gather that's very important to them. Respect to all these guys! Thank you for your service 🇺🇸🇬🇧🫡
Proud i served 3 different times in British Army..last time unfortunately broke my back doing a charity parachute jump on a weekend off from SAS Signals pre Selection in March 03. Went on june Selection 03..with a broken back. Almost passed. Wrote letter with my health journey to CO in 2015. Apologies for wating their time. Reply was, no need to apologise. You turned up and volunteered for a 3rd time to serve when the world in need. You wouldve been ideal if you passed. Im really proud of that letter.
Glad you didn't break your head. You're still here making trouble aren't you? 😂 That's awesome. I heard that selection process is a real tough nut to crack.
I did not get much time with him, but I had a step-grandfather. I don't want to go too deep because I'm not super knowledgeable and don't want to show disrespect, but he did a LOT of parachute jumps in his time, eventually working at the security gates of small army barracks. His back, legs, knees, all of it... Absolutely broken. He never once said he regretted his time in the army though and that's something that really stood out to me. Thankyou for your service, even if you didn't pass the selection, I bet your spirit helped many others get over the finish line. Be proud.
Here's my 3 different times. If you wanted to ask. I served 3 different times in the British Army. 1st time: June to Oct 88 (5 months) in Royal Artillery as a 16 yr old Junior Leader. I ruptured my Achilles tendon, just after I wanted to start the training, for 29 Commando Regt R.A. Which was attached to 3rd Commando Brigade RM. So it was either backsquad or rejoin at 17.5yrs. Although my Instructors, said I might be allowed to stay in same troop if my injury healed quick. Unfortunately it needed months to settle (My Achilles tendon Injury, followed me through My 2nd and 3rd time serving. Also during my Team Solent Athletics Club time. I was a 100 200 4x100m relay sprinter. I still get the odd flare up at 51yrs old. As my left ankle is thinner than right. As my Achilles tendon blew out my ankle). So i devided to reinlisted in 89 as Adult (Regulars) entrant. 2nd time: 03/01/90 to 14/03/93 (3yrs) in Royal Corps of Transport. As a Mariner (Army Maritime trade title). As a Deckhand/Nav, on Army Landing Craft and Mexeflote rafts. Attached to 3rd Commando Brigade RM. Loved Amphibious Warefare Trade. 3rd time: 02 to 04 in A Troop 63 SAS Royal Signals Sqn T.A. Unfortunately I broke my back doing a charity parachute jump on a weekend off from SAS Signals pre Selection in March 03. I went on the June 03 summer selection. Unaware I had broken it. Miracle I made it as far as I did. All part of my 29yr ongoing physical and mental chronic and acute health battles. My mottos which are proudly tattooed next to my Army tattoos are: "Forward Forever - Backwards Never. Progress Not Perfection. Adapt & Overcome. Never Give Up Or In". "Be comfortable with being uncomfortable". I won't ever let it best me though.
We're pretty much cousins, the UK and US. Warrior blood through and through. You guys kicked our assess and kicked us out but still allot of our blood remained in the US.

Theres a famous quote from a US Navy Seal when asked how good the British SAS are, he said
“if we were going after the same target, we (the American) would repell from a black hawk onto the building roof, abseil the outer building, break the window, disperse our smoke Granada’s, enter the building and secure it. Then when the smoke clearled we’d find the Brits already there, sitting at the kitchen table with a cup tea waiting for us”.
There’s a famous quote I like from a SAS Officer - “Better to be a warrior in a garden, then a zucchini in a fridge”
THIS WICKED FELLA THE US NO WE DIFFRENT GRAVEYYY USA JUS FINK THEY SA BEST TILL THEY SEE UK WORKING THEN B LIKE DAMNN WE SLACKINNN HARDD BOUYZZZ...
Is "abseil" what you actually say in America? Just curious because "abseilen" is german and exactly means sliding down a rope in that sense.
Cause the British went in the front door cause they can't afford a helicopter, made q cup of tea and sat down when they found no civilians to shoot in the back
Sounds great thanks for the quote. I will add for clarification that different units and team to team really varies on speed and precision on CQB/CQC and how to infill on a target fast as hell. All awesome guys and units at the end of the day.
As a former serving Commando 148 BTY (Royal Marines) I was based in RM Poole and trained with SBS and SAS (Brothers are still serving as SBS and SAS) and we go out on exercise with them regularly and carry out parachute jumps into the sea, a real bond. We (the British) have love for our American Brothers. Had the pleasure parachuting and working with Navy Seals and USMC 1st and 3rd anglico operational and in california camp Pendleton doing our jumps, great times even when playing basketball or in true British style putting the gloves on for a friendly punch up. True character building. As for our late Queen, nothing will compare to her. Rest in peace boss.
148??? That’s amazing

Americans feel 1 of 2 ways about the queen and both have to do with jealousy in a manner.

Met the Queen she was really nice to me and everyone there. Her aids were telling her to hurry up and leave us. She gave them a look and she spent a few hours with us. The queen had a lot of time for the military guys and family's.
Probably the only genuine and beautiful aspect mentioned in regards to the queen about her character that would support the idea of why people would firmly fight for her honor other than what many others have said which is she's royalty and nice pretty broadly.
@@harveysanchez6993 Thanks. It was just like having a little chat with your nan. She had time for everyone. Laughing, joking and seemed genuinely interested in talking to and listening to people.

I was on her honour guard, both times she visited Calgary, Canada.
Met her the second time, for a reception, at the Museum of the Regiments in Calgary.
Spoke to her. She had class.
I would have put myself in harms way to protect her.
☺️☺️☺️🤠🤠🤠🤠
At the Parade the first time in Calgary, she saw that after the Regiments had done their march past, the WW2 vets, in their Blazers and Berets, or kilts, were either walking along slowly, or hobbling on canes, or pushed in wheel chairs, behind the Regiments, that without asking or waiting for anyone, she got out from behind the dias, walked down the stairs in the stands through astonished crowds, to the parade square where she stopped the vets, went up to every single one, returned their salutes, shook the vets hands and spoke to everyone of them and thanked them for their service. There were also some vets who struggled to stand up from their wheel chairs, in pain, who shrugged off assistance from others to come to attention to salute her. All standing a little straighter, proud of the recognition she bestowed on them. What Monarch has done the same??? 😳☺️☺️☺️
The combined security the British, RCMP and local police were having minor or major heart attacks. This was a Queen in every sense of the word, acted and behaved with Charisma, Humble yet still garnering Loyalty. Brings tears to my eyes, just remembering the Event. Yes, a Very Classy person ... she will be remembered.
Her Husband??? A thoroughly dispicable man. He could duck like everyone else ... he was hitting on every female in the room at the reception. 😳🤯🤮🤮🤮
Good shit mate.
the RCMP escorted the Queen's coffin to Windsor Chapel recently.. and then again, escorting the King to his coronation.. seeing this line of gigantic RCMP horses leading the procession sort of rammed it home our own horsemen play second fiddle to the Canadians but that's ok 🙂

The regiment don't fuck around. They set the standard.
Ehhhh they set a standard not THE standard but definitely A standard
@@skampy134 no, they set the standard.
Insane success rate, created the flashbang, gave it free to all other special services and taught them how to deal with plane hostage situations which they, the sas, were the first to figure out a solution for.
There's just so many impressive stories about the sas and sbs, even after they retire like the one single sas guy at that hotel.
I get that it's hard for some americans to praise anyone that isn't them because they are hard conditioned to believe no matter what that they are the best even when they rarely are, but it's undisputed that the SAS is the best of the best, and it's a good thing it's them because they are clearly all about cooperating, and while I'm at it, they've helped train most american special forces, just saying.
It's not about ego or pride, they just fucking hard like that.
anyone worth their salt has to consider SAS very hard for best special forces, they are trained to an insane level even in counter intelligence and interogation. It includes ghurka's in there, and ghurka's are impressive as can be.
Also many of the special forces are models after the SAS, including delta force. SAS have earned their reputation, which is usually "the best of the best".
@@nameisbad I didn’t say they weren’t good. They just said they’re not the standard. Just because delta force is modeled after them doesn’t mean the delta force isnt better than them. They are the premier special forces standard. Anyone in the British military can become sas, delta has to come to you, the SAS are good but delta is just better
I think stick to your video games mate, what makes the beat is not just how strong they are now but how strong they have bee consistently over their history, their success rate alone is staggering compared to other SF. They've earnt their salt, you can't take that away from them and their reputation given by many other SF over the years was literally: the best of the best.

When you join the British military, in my case, the Royal Marines, on day 2 (of nine months) recruit training, you have to swear an oath to Queen (in my time 2004) and country. From the moment you attest, till the day you ‘TX’ you are government property, and go without complaint wherever her government deems your presence necessary. Oddly enough, it’s the one time in my life that I felt a sense of duty and usefulness. I earn 5x a month what I did back then now, but I’m not sure I’ll ever feel the sense of pride and fulfilment that I did as, essentially, a tool with a serial number.

@@franciswhite7125 bruhhhh 😂 they didn't sign up to fight for the monarchy that's like saying soldiers for the us signed up to fight for trump or some random celebrity the royals are just a tourist attraction and a rich family that has deep routes in slavery and destruction of other continents/society something we are very much separated from as a nation there are a few weirdos who love the royals but most of em aren't British
@franciswhite7125 mate noone signs up to "fight for the queen" we sign up to get paid, get a transferable skill the leave to become civvies.
The SAS are the best trained and most formidable special forces on earth!
Then probably the SBS and gurkhas
@@seanclarey983 totally agree, I have the utmost respect for both but especially the Ghurkas, their huge contribution towards helping the British is often overlooked.
Except for the Royal Navy's special forces unit, the Special Boat Service (SBS). They are actually even more highly trained than the SAS. Although they originally had separate selection courses, nowadays both SAS and SBS candidates go through "special forces selection". Having successfully completed SF selection (which lasts 6 months) SAS candidates are then "badged" and sent to one of the SAS squadrons (although training is ongoing). SBS candidates, however, are not badged until they have successfully completed a second period of selection, comprising a further period of gruelling training, this time in maritime warfare. This includes, parachuting into the sea, deep diving, infiltration and exfiltration from submerged submarines, underwater demolition, sea and estuary canoeing and using various amphibious craft, boarding ships at sea, etc. They also at times participate in land-based operations. SBS operatives took part in operations in Iraq and Afghanistan alongside their SAS colleagues. As one SBS guy said - "We can do everything the SAS can do, AND walk on water...".
@@seanclarey983 Actually, the SBS are even more highly trained than the SAS. See my comment to @rjim 1. And although the Gurkhas are an awesome fighting force, they are not a special forces unit. The only special forces in the British military are the 22 SAS Regiment, the Royal Navy's special forces unit, the Special Boat Service (SBS), the Special Reconnaissance Regiment (SRR) and the Special Forces Support Group (SFSG).
@@lorddaver5729 SAS/SBS go through the same training I believe?
Yep.. there you have it! 👍🇬🇧
I guess it's the same about if you disrespected the American flag... i gather that's very important to them. Respect to all these guys! Thank you for your service 🇺🇸🇬🇧🫡
Do you like the USA and Americans?
Theres a reason those boys feel that way about QEII. RIP Queenie ❤
Her Majesty was the best Boss I ever had. We wouldn't fight for Politicians.
That's exactly who you fight for, like it or not.
Rest in Piss 🦅 🇺🇸 RAHHHHHHH!!!
no, you fought for bankers ya muppet
And now you fight for an elder lich... Its time to quit lol
@@dotEXCEI_ I have no idea what that means.
Agree 100%. I’ve been saying this since I spent some time with them in 1990-92.
It's sensable. Nobody should joke about there very fundamental pride. Salute.
Proud i served 3 different times in British Army..last time unfortunately broke my back doing a charity parachute jump on a weekend off from SAS Signals pre Selection in March 03. Went on june Selection 03..with a broken back. Almost passed. Wrote letter with my health journey to CO in 2015. Apologies for wating their time. Reply was, no need to apologise. You turned up and volunteered for a 3rd time to serve when the world in need. You wouldve been ideal if you passed. Im really proud of that letter.
Glad you didn't break your head.
You're still here making trouble aren't you?
😂
That's awesome.
I heard that selection process is a real tough nut to crack.
I did not get much time with him, but I had a step-grandfather. I don't want to go too deep because I'm not super knowledgeable and don't want to show disrespect, but he did a LOT of parachute jumps in his time, eventually working at the security gates of small army barracks. His back, legs, knees, all of it... Absolutely broken. He never once said he regretted his time in the army though and that's something that really stood out to me. Thankyou for your service, even if you didn't pass the selection, I bet your spirit helped many others get over the finish line. Be proud.
@@curtisss Thanks kind sir.
I loved serving the other two times prior.
Here's my 3 different times. If you wanted to ask.
I served 3 different times in the British Army.
1st time:
June to Oct 88 (5 months) in Royal Artillery as a 16 yr old Junior Leader. I ruptured my Achilles tendon, just after I wanted to start the training, for 29 Commando Regt R.A. Which was attached to 3rd Commando Brigade RM. So it was either backsquad or rejoin at 17.5yrs. Although my Instructors, said I might be allowed to stay in same troop if my injury healed quick. Unfortunately it needed months to settle (My Achilles tendon Injury, followed me through My 2nd and 3rd time serving. Also during my Team Solent Athletics Club time. I was a 100 200 4x100m relay sprinter. I still get the odd flare up at 51yrs old. As my left ankle is thinner than right. As my Achilles tendon blew out my ankle). So i devided to reinlisted in 89 as Adult (Regulars) entrant.
2nd time:
03/01/90 to 14/03/93 (3yrs) in Royal Corps of Transport. As a Mariner (Army Maritime trade title). As a Deckhand/Nav, on Army Landing Craft and Mexeflote rafts. Attached to 3rd Commando Brigade RM. Loved Amphibious Warefare Trade.
3rd time:
02 to 04 in A Troop 63 SAS Royal Signals Sqn T.A. Unfortunately I broke my back doing a charity parachute jump on a weekend off from SAS Signals pre Selection in March 03. I went on the June 03 summer selection. Unaware I had broken it. Miracle I made it as far as I did. All part of my 29yr ongoing physical and mental chronic and acute health battles.
My mottos which are proudly tattooed next to my Army tattoos are:
"Forward Forever - Backwards Never. Progress Not Perfection. Adapt & Overcome. Never Give Up Or In".
"Be comfortable with being uncomfortable".
I won't ever let it best me though.
Thank you for your sacrifices.
God rest her , long live the king
Are you British? Do you like the USA and Americans?
We're pretty much cousins, the UK and US. Warrior blood through and through. You guys kicked our assess and kicked us out but still allot of our blood remained in the US.
So true
Not for long. We came back in 1812-15, when they didn't have any allies like they did in the first match. We even gave them a chance by sending 3rd rate troops.
no killers and murderers
It’s just boys talking about the hood friends and his high school buddies that he trained with. But never had real experience outside of the circle
If this is right, then Canada, Australia, New Zealand, US and United Kingdom are all cousins ?
