That's the sort of man you want on your side, ruthless but lovely. I could listen to stories like this all day.
All modern day commandos stood on these men's shoulders, thank you Stan.
The bloke on the left, Ozzy Osborne. He was carrying a Bren.
Sorry.. I had to laugh
That had me too! 😆
Understandable 🤣
Just imagine it though. In another universe a young Ozzie Osbourne, the musician, takes the place of the Ozzie Osbourne infantryman during WW2. Rounds the corner. Sees a group of Germans. (Bark at the Moon laugh) Mows down Germans.
HA HA HA HA HA
“If he’s wearing field gray, he’s had it. I had a round up the spout, which is against the geneva convention and I couldn’t give a monkey’s, and a bayonet fixed on me rifle, and you’re gonna get that or this, or something else, or the grenade handy as well.”
do you know why its against the Geneva convention to have a round in the chamber?
I lose it every time!
@@commentsandlikes9509 Heard about the Convention... We even got it as a little pamphlet... Great as tinder when doing field craft... Or wiping.
round the spout?
"Now there's a story about that but oh, anyway....." Noooooo!
I thank you Sergeant Stan W Scott, et al... for the loyalty and service you gave to our once great country.
Ozzy Osbourne blow a German sentry away with a Bren gun! Heavy Metal, indeed!
What a great guy Scotty is. Respect to all his fallen comrades that he still hasn't forgot and I doubt he will.
Is there a full length interview with this man, these 3 minute segments are very disjointed and I want to listen to him talk uninterrupted
check for the 8 videos playlist in this channel
‘Against the Geneva convention and I couldn’t give a monkey’s’ 😂
A round up the spout is a bullet put directly in the chamber manually. You can shoot without cocking
Thanks for that. I just love the story & how he tells it. So matter of fact.
@@BelloBudo007 this was 4 years ago I saw this and I still recall him every now and again. How to kill with a knife and other harrowing stories. I dont know anyone this hard core.
I could listen to this man all day
Stan is the Man.
Very few of us could deal with this. Respect
I could listen to this man talk all day.
"Your wedding tackle?" That's a good one. Have to use that term one day.
What a really fascinating chap! I bet he got a million stories that would be worth listening too.
what happened to real men of this country like stan 🤔thank god for men like him a dam tuff old geezer. god bless them all🙏😎
He mentions Ozzie Ozbourne ..presumably not the same one ?
So sad so many of his mates got it. A proper Londoner. God bless him and his bravery.
1:24 What is "round up the spout" and why is it against the Geneva Convention?
Sorry. English isn't my first langage.
Tough ole bastard I bet
"Sharon!! Sharon!! They've given me this f@!$ing Bren gun Sharon!!"
so wait, his mate got shot in the head and *walked it off*?
Made of sheer granite massive massive respect to him and all his kind least we forget👍
Shit is going down to many of these vet motivation speaches on U Tube
Riding a bicycle under fire, with all that weight.
I really want to hear the story behind the grenade.
Since when is having a round loaded against the Geneva convention?
1:20 How is having "a round up the spout" against the Geneva convention? It just sounds like a made ready rifle.
he meant he was going to shoot first and take no prisoners. if they were wearing grey they had it no matter what. the round up the spout thing was just a way of saying he was ready to fight
What was against geneva convention?
Having a round in the chamber I think.
Stan C Yeah, a round up the spout.
do you know why that is against the Geneva convention?
lol having a round chambered is not against the convention. He was talking about how he was ready to fire indiscriminately at anything wearing " field grey" the color mostly worn by the German Army.
Why would having a round chambered be against Geneva convention?
he's referring to his intention to kill anyone he sees in German uniform. Which could mean the wounded, surrendering enemies, etc. Commandos don't mess around. There's another video where this guy talks about the best way to cut the throat of an unsuspecting sentry. Total callousness is pretty much a job requirement. There's a part two of this video where he mentions enemies coming out with their hands up, and that he was sorry that there were White Russian and Polish conscripts among them.
Never let's the truth get in the way of a good story.
Cant understand a word
Look at and listen to this old man kids.
He lost a whole bunch of mates in one single attack had a friend die in is arms and do you see any tears in his eyes?
No because that's how you do it, you deal with it.
Now we have soldiers that kills the enemies from 500 yards maybe they loose a friend or two and then come home after a couple of months of service and can't handle life anymore.
I get it PTSD is real but you can't just blame PTSD on anything.
There were PTSD victims in WWII but those guys really had it tough.
BolinFoto ☆ They were the greatest generation to ever live. My father fought first in North Africa and then off to Italy. Uncle Arthur was a Marine who fought the Japanese on islands in the South Pacific. Horrible fighting on both fronts. They came home, raised families and never whined or bitched about all the shit they had been through. God bless them all.
Says the pussy who never picked up a rifle
I dont think any of us that were not there can say that, what do we know about PTSD, or battle stress etc? You also assume that all fighting is done at a distance nowadays, I dont think that is true either, I think we should just listen and learn from men like this
the difference is this man has had a lifetime to work through anything weighing on him, you have no idea what people have seen or whats actually happened to them and trying to boil it down to "killing enemies at 500 yards and maybe losing a friend or 2" is some of the dumbest shit I've heard in a good while.
@@nyepumphrey4486In WWII a lone proplane could in the worst weather imaginable on the darkest moonless night fly miles and miles behind enemy lines and take out a communication array in the middle of no ware.
No computers, no satnav nothing.
Today with drones and, SatNav and laser guidance and highly advanced intelligence reports they can't even take out a rebel training facility in the middle of a flat desert in broad daylight and clear weather.
They drive around in their cars and occasionally they get blown up by an IED, Improvised Explosive Device IE a kettle with some dynamite inside, or end up in a firefight with a bunch of ill trained persons, yes persons not military, with rusty AK's made in the mid 70s and get's themselves wasted.
Even though they are highly trained with space age weapons and armoured like tanks.
The military need's to butch up and just get the job done.
They need to firstly train their men to not give a shit and just get it done.
And inform them that a soldier has only two things on their list, kill or be killed, that's it.
Because we all know that the enemy is teaching that to their guys.
I can't follow anything he says! I'm trying and now I'm just getting frustrated!
