'The jungle is neutral': British and Belizeans pushed to the limit | British Army

- The 1st Battalion Scots Guards (1SG), together with a range of other British Army units and our allies from Belize, had to get comfortable being uncomfortable in one of the world’s most unforgiving environments on Exercise Mayan Storm.
Normally based in Yorkshire, the jungle warfare training that these soldiers undertook in the South American country during November and December must have seemed a world away from the norm.
However, the skills and drills that were being reinforced during the package will be invaluable and could make all the difference on operations.

Looks like a delightful country and trust that our boys are enjoying it all, best wishes 🙏
Soldiering in its purest and most intense form, brought back some good memories. Love it. Love the country, Love its people.
my battalion was sent to belize when the guats were going to invade it was a shock for a 19 yr old from the midlands and finding myself in heat and humidity . still i got to see xmas in belize even got on telly when bbc came out to film a doc...the jungle is like nature it doesn't give a f..k about you or your feelings every thing in the jungle wants to bite sting or scratch you, and the slr was not the best weapon for jungle warfare. always said i would go back one day but to old now still the jungle was ok once you got used to it...lol...
Belize rocking the lovely old Soldier 95 kit! Glad to see it still being used.
58 was allegedly better ? Ha
Good to see Wes Dale still in the game, absolute geezer

Nope!
British soldiers are allowed to have mustache due to queen's rules
Can have a beard if you're a pioneer Sgt navy or have a medical exemption
Got sent here from my recruiter can't wait to be involved in this stuff!!
Theres a reason that the British ruled most of the globe..
My dear British Army 💎 diamond ⭐ absolutely TOP ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇬🇧♥️♥️♥️♥️

Best tip I got from the locals was how to get to the Rose Garden
Roses place been there ha.
@@MLVL312 Quality must of visited it 3 or 4 times during my 6 week stint in the 90s👍🏻

'the jungle is neutral' is also a ridiculously hardcore book. Check it out
My Dad served in the Scots Guards. Loved it.
British Army defend the Vulnerable people around the world, and they protect the nature and forest.👍🏴🌲🌳
I like Britain and British people but this statement is only partly true
Lol Rob oil more like
We used to call it Toucan blade in the 80s, the BDF were tough jungle fighters.
Respect
"are there any questions..??"
Sir, how do penguins mate..🤔
How tall is a giraffe
Where do flies go in winter?
How long does it take to sandpaper an elephant into a greyhound.
Top lads
Looks awesome, thank God British promos not about having two mom's, powerful work.
Great video. but audio levels are absolutely all over the place.
what are the rules on attaching go pros to helmets?
I’ve been out for a few year now, why aren’t the using iron sights in the j ? , are the new sights condensation free?
I noticed that. Also that they all seemed to use the 4x Elcan rather than the red dot on top.
All 30 troops of the British armed forces are in the video
and using our reserve ammo...
Omg I didn’t know the rifle was capable of putting up a smoke screen. Amazing what’s these rifles can do these days 😂
lovely
The Army teaches many foreign languages to its soldiers. French, German, Spanish, and to its Scottish soldiers they teach them how to speak correctly.
Wary I miss the jungle hard hard graft but proper soldiering. They say if you can soldier in the jungle you can soldier in any other environment.
The artic is way harder than the jungle.
The jungle will keep you alive for weeks, the artic will kill you in a day.
Imagine missing that

Man they doing good in the jungle 👍👍
I'd some a cigeret their.
I wonder if the british army still recruiting commonwealth people during covid 19 i want to know
Yeah the British army has limited places for most commonwealth countries. You can even start the initial process on line. Good luck. 👍 you are choosing well my friend.
Selva! Brasil!

Hello from Ukraine
I have nothing but respect for people that have completed this training.
If you just lay down on the jungle floor for 1 hour you will probably end up with fire ants in your cloths and a centipede crawling around your balls.
Now imagine what its like to actually try and function in that environment.
I wouldnt like to go camping in the jungle, let alone fighting.
ocean friendly
Meanwhile the USMC guys are like, huh they even give out shaving chits in the jungle...
Lol it’s the American way where private/Corporate business runs the show Gillette made it’s money suppling razors to the army I’m willing to bet the reason why the rules are still in place is due to some clause in the contract.
Professionals don't shave in the jungle.
Hence the USMC do 🤷🏻♂️
Rose gardens still open lads?
Couldn't get in there for Ghurkas.
@@zulu5282Not Sure was there in 1991. it was busted by MP's any armed forces was removed I was Royal Artillery attached to B Company 1st Battalion Gloucestershire Regt. so don't know.
I was there in the 80s
There 2000 and was still going strong
No. It burned down years ago and the owner sold the land for redevelopment.
How normal Imperial Force looks like
absolutely honkin
I'm too old to join the British army. Been to Belize multiple times did as a family but I've never seen any British troops. I'm only seeing American troops
HI British Army. Very Manly Very Charming Very Handsome Very Respectful Very Intelligent Coolest Uniform Ever Mightiest Defense Always Ready to Roll Rockstar & Overachiever 🏹📚⚔️
Why are they all using their 4x Elcans instead of the red dot on top? De the red dot sight fog up in the jungle?
Are the DS Hereford or Poole boys?
No
Why do all military instructors talk the same……okay?!?
Clear, Loud, As an order, with Pauses.
C.L.A.P it's an S.O.P and is taught to instructors as the way to communicate your lesson, in the British Armed forces.
I was just thinking the very same! Every one of them sounds the same.
Just a lack of being able to work things out themselves, have to to what the last guy did.
USA just scream in your earhole and make you deaf
Skills and drills there boys. Take this and give it large to Putin
There's not much jungle in Ukraine!
Scots guards?, Not one jock accent detected.
Did you miss the guy shouting orders at 46sec? He sounds like a FRISP.
Mere Scot’s in2 para C coy 👍🍻🏴
@@stephencrossan4681 most para 2 are english and 3 para
To be fair if it’s a family regiment for some people joining because their parents and grandparents were in- they’re not based in Scotland so if your dad was in the guards you’d probably have an English accent
Most platoons the captains were English the soldiers were Scott’s they had cool berrets very diferentes than those of the English .I met them when they were in patrol in Albion Island .
I love his moustache
To much shouting at the end! your just giving away your position! I think you should go about it with more stealth & coms that work.
Its a training exercise mate!
That wouldn't be the same drill.
If they were live in the jungle!!
Awfully grubby
CRINCHING
some bad drills in this video ... we are a very vulnerable for so many reasons .@-(
Complete Tosh. They're learning.
@@lindsayheyes925 Its actually not Lindsay; "so far this week then you've started at the individual level focusing on jungle specific CQ marksmanship skills" that was "the man" with a strip of facial hair grown above the upper lip at exactly 30secs in.....:-( ergo....there are specific ways of handling a personal weapon system in the bush....didn't see them here though, and in fact saw the very opposite. Trust me, for you know not of what yee speak.
@@maxitosh8465 🤣 That's for me to know and you to wonder about.
Thanks mr armchair general 👍
