22 SAS veterans Rusty Firmin & Peter McAleese - Peter talks about selection in the 1960s

[@petersmith713]

'Who dares cares' well done to you and Shane for getting Peter into the public eye, he deserves the recognition.

[@RustyFirminSASTV]

He does and will get it

[@Tony-nn3gl]

What a gentleman Peter is so modest.

[@Tony-nn3gl]

@@integralevideo I guess so.

[@Biggles2498]

From somebody who has just survived a Major Heart Double Bypass I salute you both !

[@RustyFirminSASTV]

Get well mate

[@johnbar1]

did my first CP course with Peter at Elite back in the day, perfect professional and a true warrior

[@andykettley5519]

Well done too both of you keep them coming. I was 25 years on the RAF so very relatable too me. Peter is very humble gent which hides his action packed life .

[@pamberinehondo9447]

Total respect gents. Another great listen. I am sure the Channel 4 program is far removed from not only your day but also the regiment as it is today. I do also relate to the change in kit over the years, as a Rhodesian soldier in the mid to late 70’s where we introduced the world to zip up jacket and chest webbing and combat shorts 😂😂😂. I am sure Peter will remember that in his C Sqd days?

[@406actual4]

Tough times don't last, tough men like you two do! Thanks again for another great bit of story telling Rusty you never disappoint.

[@lesliesimpson4362]

Hi Rusty enjoying the interviews with you and Peter you both work well together. On separate note I’ve just finished reading my signed copy of your book the regiment, I found it to be a great insight into your life and how you coped with whatever life threw at you from a young boy of 15 years to now thank you for your service honesty and modesty 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Regards Les.

[@JohnJones-nj5hz]

Thanks Rusty and Peter for the excellent interviews. So captivating incredible stories! All the best to you both!

[@andycowie3925]

Rusty.been in touch with you in the past.my old dad John Cowie was a pioneer of the tree jumps in malaya. Peter and dad knew each other. Dad was originally an airdrie man.jock mcaleese was a Falkirk man.they knew each other as well. Dad lived in the Falkirk for 50 years.also dad was great friends with Bob king who tried to bring dad back in to the fold.keep smiling to all.x

[@andycowie3925]

Rusty.way back in the 70s.my old dad was one of the survivors from the river trent disaster where lots of the Grangemouth paras went over a weir on a assault craft and went under.he was one helluva man.

Morning rusty great podcast again with Peter. My uniform in cadet's in 1988 was bad enough. My camouflage trousers were to big so they made me use a pair of putties to keep them tucked in lol and a shirt made out of loft insulation 😭

Yes different cover.I read Peters book well over 20yrs ago and it had a green cover if I remember correctly? It was a brilliant read.This man was all about combat!

[@liamhollin8265]

Hello Rusty, hello Pete. Another great video. Thanks again for sharing the past with us. I would of loved these videos when i was a boy . When i was eight, there was a series on the b.b.c "THE PARAS" for me it was fantastic. I think was broadcast on the thursday, saturday me and my "company" used to try and reanact what we'd watch in the week. Quite often we'd walk around the feilds, pretending we was on the basic wales. Going to press gang more subscribers for you both👍👍👍👍

[@philgee5220]

I love Peter he's brilliant to listen to. I already own his book but will buy it again if it helps him get more recognition, deservedly. Would also say that with regards to that terrible programme on C4 that all that shouting is based upon them probably thinking that these guys (celebs/plebs) have never even so much as done a BFT so need that kind of beasting about, whereas when you go into the Regiment all that basic shit has already been sorted out. Im imagining that that maybe the thought process and why there is so much swearing and shouting?? As you both have said though I haven't heard one person who went through selection, or tried ever say that the ds were constantly making life hell for you.

[@RustyFirminSASTV]

It’s been k plastic hard men.

In 79 on cold training I went out and bought those NASA boot anti cold cold inserts cos DM,S boots were not good.Dubbing and them worked.💖👑💖🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@andysmith2846]

Another great insight , just a quick un what do you think of the 51 year old fella that got in the regiment recently? Is it a concern that they are desperate to recruit ? Look forward to next chat with you guys 👍

Desk job

[@andysmith2846]

Lol 😂

[@ericbleasel5907]

Did you in your time with the regiment get the opportunity to turn things around,by that i mean run a selection course acting as DS,furthermore was it a select group in the regiments job to just run selection courses and lastly would be interested to know Peter and Rusty,what would you prefer winter or summer,both have their difficulties?

[@RustyFirminSASTV]

Summer mate

[@tobytaylor2154]

Difference between summer and winter kit was a heavy pullover. Lol

[@RustyFirminSASTV]

About right

Never turn left without looking right first and never ever turn back once you have gone through !!!!

A brilliant channel and subscribed ages ago.......have you watched the latest SAS movie recently released Rusty? I thought it was really poor.

Nobody pushed you, they wanted to see you push yourself. The only person who could give up on you was yourself. Far better the man that tried and failed, than the man that never tried at all. Platform 4 was available 24/7. To be honest, I don't think it's changed for the better !. But, that's my personal opinion.
