Every young man of irish heritage, fit for service has a duty to fulfil. The diaspora must unite and return home. The numbers are there, the strength is there and BEST BELIEVE the spirit is there.
@Azamat Bagadov "Every young man of irish heritage, fit for service has a duty to fulfil"? No, they do not. We have NEVER had conscription, and have no desire to introduce it. "The diaspora must unite and return home"? Are you completely insane? If everyone who is entitled to an Irish passport came back to the Republic of Ireland, we would have a population of something like 70,000,000 people. We'd be living in each other's armpits.... "The numbers are there, the strength is there and BEST BELIEVE the spirit is there"? For what, precisely? What is the purpose of increasing our population to about 70 Million people and putting all the young males under arms? And who the hell is going to pay for this wet dream?
@@ShadowBlade-eu9qp Install a Junta? Are you for real? Tell me a country where a Junta has proved successful? Chile, Libya, Burma etc. all have atrocious human rights abuse records. The Military has no business running a civilian government. Knowledge, know how, competence etc. Fine Gael might not be everybody's cup of tea, however. Furthermore, they are a legitimate government who's members have been placed into the Dail by the people of Ireland. If you firmly believe and stand by your statement; you're an Idiot!
At the end of 2017 the Defence Forces posted this video on their Facebook page. They posted it as their favourite video of the year and from there I saved it. Few months later I decided to post it here to pay tribute to this fantastic unit.
They've already spent time training with them. The Irish regularly have joint training in Hereford with the SAS . . Our officers also go to Sandhurst for specialist training.
The forerunners to the Irish Army Ranger Wing wiped out the cream of the British spies in one morning during the Irish War of Independence. Do you think these elite spies and Winston Churchill were laughing when the shooting stopped?
Ireland ranks 97th by army strength and 127th by population...Irelands army is way to small!! Norway with the same population as Ireland is ranked 33rd in the world by army strength!

In truth we do not need them. Anytime the Russians enter our air space the EU launch fighters to escort the lads out and on their way. Plus the treaty of 1921 only allows us a defense force. Always remember that it only took farm hands and peasants with the guidance of returning Irish men whom fought in ww1 to bring these men up to scratch and send the Brits packing. The thoughts of an organized and well trained Irish army put the fear of god into the Brits at the time. We live in different times now. But imagine if Collins had 150 of these guys instead of 12.
@@sgthomer1 I would disagree, as a sovereign and neutral nation we need to ability to defend our neutrality without relying on anyone else. All we need is at least 16 jet fighters capable of intercepting foreign/unauthorized aircraft. Other neutral, small in population and/or size whom are also non NATO members states do have these capabilities so the air corps having such equipment is not out of the question. Especially considering we had jet aircraft in the form of vampires and fouga jets until 1999.
@@judemorgan9362 It makes me sick to think we have we can not defend our own air space. We could pick up them 16 Jets and spare parts for about 100mil. I am just being realistic.
sgthomer1, I can’t see us getting these capabilities in the next few years unfortunately. Although the government back in June did announce that they where considering the purchase of fighter jets: www.google.com/amp/s/www.irishtimes.com/news/ireland/irish-news/government-considering-purchase-of-military-jet-aircraft-1.4289801%3Fmode%3Damp So perhaps a long term air corps funding plan may come into place where the means to defend our airspace as a sovereign nation is achieved. Although it will be at least 5+ yrs from now before a deal is even made for the purchase of the fighters and radar/support systems that go along with a program for defending airspace. I should also note that with Britain being our main defender in air and sea and their departure from the EU makes it seem less likely they'll want to defend a country in the EU making it more appropriate for the Irish government to actually invest in fighter jets for the air corps.
@@sgthomer1 The EU aren't the ones dispatching fighter jets to intercept Russian intrusions into our airspace, its the Royal Air Force. We have a few of our own flying with them. Its a matter of enticing them back with the right aircraft and pay. Let's be honest, we've got the Brits watching our skies.

@@pmgunner2859 it’s cool
@@ministermonkey7546 lol yeah my response might of been rude but I'm surprised the amount of people who ask that question
@@pmgunner2859 we're not exactly a massive or relevant country in terms of current affairs so I don't expect everyone to know information about this tiny island we live on
guess who lol
The Irish version of, FBI open up!!!
Respected by who, the girl guides. Regarded as one of the best by who?
Respected by so many around the country and the world. They're regarded as one of the best due to their record when competing in international tournaments. On par with the best the US has to offer.
@@KieranM8982 Winning competitions does not win respect, taking part in real world successful military operations earns respect, they are untried and untested. The best they can expect are some peacekeeping duties, not usually a role for special force's.
@@russell5414 You're talking absolute rubbish, if you knew people who knew them which I do and the stuff they've done, you'd change your opinion.
@@KieranM8982 Unlike other special forces they have no offensive role and no combat or battle experience. I am sure they are good for what they were intended for, peacekeeping and internal security.
@@russell5414 They have experience in areas that you think they lack, not everything they do would be known to the public.
song?
Unfortunately don't know but if I ever find out I'll let you know
