Im Marine Recon retired, trained with Royal Marines back in the 80s, superb troops and we worked very well together, still in touch with 3 of them. No allies work and fight together like American/ Brit forces.
@@michaelmancini5773 I'm just thinking, so like Division Recon would be similar to Surveillance & Reconnaissance Squadron, while Force Recon would be similar to Brigade Patrol Troop right?
@@dallasyap3064 So the mission requirement and objectives of Force Recon have changed since i was active in the mid 80s, when I served, we were attached to MEUs ( Marine expeditionary units) as an aggressive Recon Unit, and more heavily armed to engage behind enemy lines, I spent much of my time on an assault ships and amphibious vessels
As a civvy it blows me away what these fellas get up to. I’m grateful we have guys like this, we need to put more effort into taking care of them when they return.
We really do ! mainly it’s about suffering from stress which dramatically decreases levels of testosterone. Companies then just throw pharmaceutical pills at them and wish them luck. Also MDMA trials began a while back in the US causing the cure rate for PTSD to go from 14% when on anti depressants to 77% on MDMA
It’s called the Military Covenant and I look forward to the day when a government is elected that knows the meaning of the word Covenant. It’s next to sacred.
I was a 45 commando for 12 years , failed my SBS selection process due to my eyesight, shame but upmost respect for these guys n gutted I could not be one
Good luck kid my boy failed on the 13th week they put him in Hunter troop to give him chance to repair his calf muscles but they just wouldn't have it - he was gutted
I couldn’t do what these guys do, these guys are true warriors with a mental fitness and strength most of us mere mortals can only wish for. I admire and respect them enormously for the sacrifices they have made and continue to make. They are a special breed, so glad we have people like this that are prepared to do the things they do to keep us safe. They do this with little or no public recognition, perhaps that’s right perhaps it’s not, we owe them a debt of gratitude that we cannot repay. I just wish I could buy them a drink to say thank you, it’s the least I can do.
my family was vacationing in fl about 15 years ago. i was 15. a british sub was anchored in port for some political meet & greet ceremony & the royal navy men were put up in condos on our floor. they were the greatest guys & although very polite & kind to everyone, you could tell they were rough & tough ( & a bit crazy) enough for any battle & living undersea for months at a time. the floridians were very patriotic & welcomed these soldiers with open arms & respect. bartenders & customers bought them drinks & restaurant owners picked up their tabs. the soldiers were in awe of their good treatment. 1/ they told us many brits looked down on soldiers as many of them were lower income, less educated rough kids. 2/they couldnt believe how beautiful florida was...the soft sand beaches, the warm & sunny weather, etc... they wanted to come live there after getting discharged. we invited them to dinner one night & then they insisted on taking my dad out drinking with them on their last night & my dad who got home about 3am told us he had to sneak out through the kitchen because they kept buying him shots & didnt want him to leave! & wow could they drink! lol. the next day we found a hms royal navy submarine hat on our door knob. it had the one of the guys name on it inside. my dad of course has the hat in one of his bookcases & when ever i see it, i think of them & wonder if they are all ok & if anyone of them made it back to florida. we have so much respect for our military from all our allies.
sounds mega mate. florida sun, decent beaches etc. its nothing like what we have in england mate rain, crappy beaches with stones that reck ur feet when u walk barefooted. no wonder the lads and gals enjoyed it mate.
RiseFrom TheAshes yeah because they were both American led missions. In the bin laden raid they failed to share any intel and wanted it to be a American only mission. The death of the ISIS leader on the other hand the SAS was actually involved in the planning, recon and intelligence gathering before the operation.
Prince Andrew flew the SBS in Falklands War... which meant he was a very accomplished pilot and balls... He still can sweat incidentally!! How he has fallen from grace!
I’ve a feeling they would probably do the job for nothing because they are devoted to what they do. But they certainly deserve a good wage and pension.
I was 59 commando RE and rubbed shoulders with a few of these boys on base in afghan.. they always had the best kit and a presence about them that just set them apart from the rest with no need to even speak.. chatted to a few about selection and realised that I should just be content with my green lid.. that said those that I talked to were not full of bravado.. they just no what they are and do t need to big themselves up that presence they have speaks for itself

That is an excerpt from the documentary "Submarine School", following five officers through the Submarine Command Course (aka Perisher). It is available here on youtube.
Jed Kirk sas has the best operation record in all combat biomes and sas has failed lots if you watch about them and sas is more secret there’s more clips of sbs and also sas has a boat squadron
@@tommywallis9074 SBS probably doesn't show they're records publicly, plus some of these clips are probably from SAS. Also just being more secretive doesn't mean better
Jed Kirk sas is more secretive and it don’t say what they did it just has a cross and tick if it was completed there’s barely any sas clips loads of sbs
in ww2 my dad (rip) was in a danish SBS commando unit ,trained by a famed hong kong trainer who also trained the British SBS back then. they were placed on armament cargo ships to keep off saboteur frogmen /enemy /pirates heading into the Asia pacific war zone. he was trained in fight to kill hand to hand combat including knife/Bayonet. he would play demonstrate his moves for fun when we were kids and we wanted to learn how to do them but he said no you might accidentally kill someone. his moves and boxing looked amazing and scary. he so fast it was like a blur. an unsuspecting thug/attacker would not know what hit him the end.....
In case anyone is interested there’s an exceptional book called First Into Action, by a guy called Duncan Falconer. He talks about the whole selection process for the SBS and about serving with the 14th Intelligence Co in Northern Ireland.
A lot of that process has changed now of course... Due to the UKSF, a lot more bed sharing.... The SBS have had to learn from Mobility Troop in early Iraq... a great read is Zero 6 Bravo.... the most violent engagement of the Iraq war, plus the deepest behind enemy lines incursion. and an equally impressive escape and evasion response..
Quite funny you should’ve said that. If my memory serves me correctly, that was a clip from “Submarine”, a BBC documentary that was filmed in the early nineties. The camera man didn’t actually turn the camera of immediately and it very quickly went from being polite to “turn that fucking camera off now!” He didn’t have to ask a third time.
2:26 "Cliff!" "Yeah?" "Bottle the gas mate, right shut! Close it right down mate!" Never quite sure on the dialogue, but that's what it sounds like to me.
Great seeing the photo of Nims Purja at 2:03. Came here to find out more about the SBS after watching his amazing documentary 14 Peaks which is probably the most inspiring thing I’ve ever seen. For anyone that hasn’t seen it, you need to!
SBS came RMBPD and COPP in WW2 The SBS was by Roger Courtney an Officer in King's Royal Rifle Corp. Major Anders Lassen of SBS died in Italy and had The Victoria Cross.
@@toad3222 just the seals really (still have alot of respect for them). Ive seen podcasts from former delta force members and the way they speak about their time in that unit is very reserved and hidden. They're not open about it at all which makes complete sense obviously

My Uncle served 20+ Yrs in RM 42 Commando Poole...he became an Arctic Warfare Instructor and was promoted through NCO ranks to finally RSM (WO2).... I remember he was climbing the walls in 2001 during the build up to Afghan Invasion (as he was not long retired), but saw Many Conflicts; ranging from NI, Falklands (was landed 72 hrs prior to invasion as Recon Team, where he spent 3 days in a ditch, less than 100m from hostiles) through to Desert Storm (1991). I suspect he saw other action which was never Publicly known. He was My Idol growing up, he was "ALL go and no show" nothing like what you see nowadays.....He would not have stood for any cameras round him (Unless a Rupert had ordered it so)......Maybe it was Him J.M . shouting from the R.H.I.B
SAS wow, they don't care about the bullets or their life. Many are fathers, husbands, sons. Yet they do what they do because most men can't. With respect from Papua New Guinea🇵🇬
I went for RMR selection and my local unit just happened to be the SBS location in south Dorset. I’m not going to say exactly where because you find it out yourself. But I remember sitting In the guard house, waiting to be taken into the unit, and 3 guys in civis walked in and asked for rooms for a course. Just casual looking guys, really funny and they helped me relax before I went in for my interview for the RMR. Never ever found out who they were but given where we all were it’s not lost on me I was sharing a guard house with 3 absolute killers. Nothing but respect for these lads
Please try and get your facts right. Until 1987 the unit was called the Royal Marines Special Boat Squadron, but then the Royal Navy took full responsibility for the unit and it was renamed The Special Boat SERVICE. It's motto was also changed at that time from "Not by strength, by guile" to "By strength and guile".
SAS, and particularly the SBS, are without a doubt the premier SF in the world. They set the bar for all the rest. I've seen that vid a couple of times of the wokka picking up the RIB where they just drive straight up the ramp and into it. I can't help but be astonished by the consummate skills of the pilot. MsG
Amnesty international called for an inquiry into the deaths of so many Taliban prisoners. I take it they'd have preferred an equal amount of British SBS were killed?

Im a Russian fanboy but these blokes I have MASSIVE respect for! Harder than the SAS!
SAS is better
@@tommywallis9074 nah
Jed Kirk sas has the best operation record in all combat biomes and sas has failed lots if you watch about them and sas is more secret there’s more clips of sbs and also sas has a boat squadron
@@tommywallis9074 SBS probably doesn't show they're records publicly, plus some of these clips are probably from SAS.
Also just being more secretive doesn't mean better
Jed Kirk sas is more secretive and it don’t say what they did it just has a cross and tick if it was completed there’s barely any sas clips loads of sbs
What amazes me is how they manage to do all that incredible and difficult stuff whilst carrying their massive balls around with them.
in ww2 my dad (rip) was in a danish SBS commando unit ,trained by a famed hong kong trainer who also trained the British SBS back then. they were placed on armament cargo ships to keep off saboteur frogmen /enemy /pirates heading into the Asia pacific war zone. he was trained in fight to kill hand to hand combat including knife/Bayonet. he would play demonstrate his moves for fun when we were kids and we wanted to learn how to do them but he said no you might accidentally kill someone. his moves and boxing looked amazing and scary. he so fast it was like a blur. an unsuspecting thug/attacker would not know what hit him the end.....
Good Job Mates, Cheers From US
In All Seriousness, I Thank Every Man and or Woman for their Individual service I gave 23 Year's
In case anyone is interested there’s an exceptional book called First Into Action, by a guy called Duncan Falconer. He talks about the whole selection process for the SBS and about serving with the 14th Intelligence Co in Northern Ireland.
I read his book. Probably the best book i have come across.
A lot of that process has changed now of course... Due to the UKSF, a lot more bed sharing.... The SBS have had to learn from Mobility Troop in early Iraq... a great read is Zero 6 Bravo.... the most violent engagement of the Iraq war, plus the deepest behind enemy lines incursion. and an equally impressive escape and evasion response..
These men are exceptional in the face of the greatest power the oceans!!
These guys are pretty good at swimming and camping.
There’s only three words
SIMPLY THE BEST 🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧
1:44 ‘Turn that camera off Pleez!!!!!!!!’
No hesitation, believe me it’s off.
I mean,would you argue with a member of the SBS?
Yes I would ;) this clowns are only HARD for so called public
Alfa Squad yeah sure mate 🙄
Quite funny you should’ve said that. If my memory serves me correctly, that was a clip from “Submarine”, a BBC documentary that was filmed in the early nineties. The camera man didn’t actually turn the camera of immediately and it very quickly went from being polite to “turn that fucking camera off now!” He didn’t have to ask a third time.

I recognized nirmal purja here in video . Proud to be nepali.
2:26 "Cliff!"
"Yeah?"
"Bottle the gas mate, right shut! Close it right down mate!"
Never quite sure on the dialogue, but that's what it sounds like to me.
He’s talking about the gas port on the GPMG, he could prolly tell by the rate of fire.
@@reccerat4446 Yeah, as I understand it "bottling the gas" increases the rate of fire??
Bob Page hi, gotta love the gimpy! Great weapon to have around.
Great seeing the photo of Nims Purja at 2:03. Came here to find out more about the SBS after watching his amazing documentary 14 Peaks which is probably the most inspiring thing I’ve ever seen. For anyone that hasn’t seen it, you need to!
Soon as the rap started I was outta there. lol
Kenny Powers: Yes, I had to mute it too. I can't stand rap music, it grates on me. : (
Agreed, the first track was good. The second was dogshit.

Damn that fire fight in the prison was fucking intense af. They shooting everything that moves and looking bad ass! Wow! These men are fearless
The father of all special forces respect to all men and women out there who have served or still do hats of you guys.
Greatest respect to these men.
SBS came RMBPD and COPP in WW2 The SBS was by Roger Courtney an Officer in King's Royal Rifle Corp. Major Anders Lassen of SBS died in Italy and had The Victoria Cross.
Haha one of the only group of Special Operations I've seen that actively try to hide their faces when filmed.
You won't see many Americans shying away from the cameras
@@toad3222 just the seals really (still have alot of respect for them). Ive seen podcasts from former delta force members and the way they speak about their time in that unit is very reserved and hidden. They're not open about it at all which makes complete sense obviously
@@toad3222 I can’t keep stressing this the only seals that talk a lot and show they faces are the retired ones and don’t act like if u did something that great in your life U wouldn’t want to talk about it
@@joshuathornhill8168 some things are better left unspoken..
Nah plenty do. Delta is super secretive for example, act the same way as the SAS/SBS do.
Most clever ops in the world.
They not only just fit, They highly int same time.
Thats mean they take right guy, not only who muscle bigger than others :).
Takecare
SAS/SBS the pride of our nation.
My Uncle served 20+ Yrs in RM 42 Commando Poole...he became an Arctic Warfare Instructor and was promoted through NCO ranks to finally RSM (WO2).... I remember he was climbing the walls in 2001 during the build up to Afghan Invasion (as he was not long retired), but saw Many Conflicts; ranging from NI, Falklands (was landed 72 hrs prior to invasion as Recon Team, where he spent 3 days in a ditch, less than 100m from hostiles) through to Desert Storm (1991). I suspect he saw other action which was never Publicly known. He was My Idol growing up, he was "ALL go and no show" nothing like what you see nowadays.....He would not have stood for any cameras round him (Unless a Rupert had ordered it so)......Maybe it was Him J.M . shouting from the R.H.I.B
Sounds like your uncle might of been in units he's not telling you about in full.
Where a small island but has a massive punch. Scottish , Irish, Welsh, British. God bless our service men and women past and present 👍
Scottish and welsh people are british mate. The clue is theyre two of the 3 countries that make up the island of britain
Thank you all for your excellent service and keeping us safe
Just utter respect for these guys
love the Chin/RIB EXfil lol......" yeah...that ladder might be a good move" !
The first Special forces unit. SBS. Warriors.
The first is Italian (WWI) “X Flottiglia MAS” (NAVY) and “Arditi Incursori” (Folgore/9 rgt Col Moschin)
SAS wow, they don't care about the bullets or their life. Many are fathers, husbands, sons. Yet they do what they do because most men can't. With respect from Papua New Guinea🇵🇬
Don't mess with these fellas 💪
Feel sorry for our enemies. The best soliders are British soldiers. Can’t wait to be there one day
Go read the Afghanistan section of the SBS' wikipedia page. Pure action.
Very little is known about these guys.
I went for RMR selection and my local unit just happened to be the SBS location in south Dorset. I’m not going to say exactly where because you find it out yourself. But I remember sitting In the guard house, waiting to be taken into the unit, and 3 guys in civis walked in and asked for rooms for a course.
Just casual looking guys, really funny and they helped me relax before I went in for my interview for the RMR. Never ever found out who they were but given where we all were it’s not lost on me I was sharing a guard house with 3 absolute killers. Nothing but respect for these lads
britannic commando hubert respect from France
Chapeau, mes ami.
Please try and get your facts right. Until 1987 the unit was called the Royal Marines Special Boat Squadron, but then the Royal Navy took full responsibility for the unit and it was renamed The Special Boat SERVICE. It's motto was also changed at that time from "Not by strength, by guile" to "By strength and guile".
SAS, and particularly the SBS, are without a doubt the premier SF in the world. They set the bar for all the rest.
I've seen that vid a couple of times of the wokka picking up the RIB where they just drive straight up the ramp and into it. I can't help but be astonished by the consummate skills of the pilot.
MsG
Amnesty international called for an inquiry into the deaths of so many Taliban prisoners. I take it they'd have preferred an equal amount of British SBS were killed?
Non sbs were killed in battle of qala I jangi
These warriors use chinook’s like we use our cars 😎

5:41 Dean Stott. I heard his interview on Jocko Willink's podcast. Even Jocko was in awe of him.
I don't know why, it's not like Deano has done anything out of the ordinary!!!! 😛
Even among SF he's something special.
@@JammyDodger45 LOL!
People forget that in one form or another, the men of the British Isles (including Welsh, Scots, Irish, English Aka the Brits!) have been fighting for THOUSANDS of years, not hundreds, thousands! It’s in our blood to fight! Just go out to a battle cruiser boozer on a Friday night in any village, town, city in the UK to find out! We should never EVER stop our military as training is what keeps us hard!
From US NAVAL COMMAND, THANK YOU CAPTAIN HOWDY. LMFAO
1:44 Cameraman got a good b*llcking there lol what did he think was gonna happen recording special forces XD
The best there is , the best of the best .
Everyone on the internet has a voice it and it seems this comment section everyones an expert quick to point out what in their eyes are 'faults'.
Great video, didnt care for the rap near rhe end but I know it takes time to create these so job well done mate.
Video about SRR would be cool
Thanks Lads.
SBS - the best of them all. Nobody can come close. Not even the SAS
Statements like that are just so moron¡c
We may not have the largest military, but we certainly got the best soldiers.... always make us proud
The dogs are my favourite I have no words to describe them or the handler just ❤️
30% make it through selection??? Where did you get that from it’s more like 3-10%
Where have you got that from ?

Nice well put together video my grandad served with sbs up untill he passed. My house backs on to the base and as I'm allways on the water I'm a commercial fisherman I've seen and have on video somewhere of a Chinook dropping off 2 boats from the air into the sea and the boats chunk out camo nets and tied together and become a new island stayed there all day i have many others aswell beach raids at hamworthy park ect 😊
When it’s time to shit or get off the pot, these guys are shitting on the enemy 👍🏻 respect from Army Artillery Veteran 🇺🇸🇺🇸
