733 (Arnhem) Platoon - P Company milling

[@bobperkins9818]

There was no head gear in 1972, and they used to put you up against your best mate, just to make it interesting.

[@Jafmanz]

there were no gloves in 1834 just a knife and your son...

[@tonys8448]

@@Jafmanz 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@tonys8448]

In 1944 the parachute regiment jump into France

[@BenDover-tj8vf]

Good old days , I joined 1975 royal navy , ship joker , the NCOs kicked the crap out of me 😂

[@geoffsaunderson5766]

Well yeah they still do exactly what they want, headgear it’s so nobody gets needlessly f**ked over and wast those 10,s of thousands of training they have had even at that point! And the “winner” is the one that showed the most heart not skilI don’t spose you wore gloves in “your day” either…😐

[@Iceman0505]

fair play lads, see theres a few key board warriors in the comment section

[@colinkeatley3381]

I wish I was as brave as these lads-makes me proud to be British

[@raypiper2839]

I boxed for years ...these lads a fucking tough take my word for it ....I've seen trained boxers give up on a fraction of the punishment these lads are dishing out ....top lads .....I've remember a para who had transferred arms and he came in one night drunk the block sergeant and four others were taken out by him when they tried to confront him about making noise.....nothing was ever said about it later....

[@unitedkingdomoffiveeyes9765]

Sounds like a nice fella.

[@justinacton6816]

Definitely more fun than doing the bloody log race 🙄👍

[@ponyboy1664]

Good stuff. I bet these lads learnt a hell of a lot about themselves during this exercise

[@stevelees5416]

Brutal, awesome work lads- proud!

[@simonholmes891]

Well said Bob i was also there in the 70s, 410 Platoon then i Para.

[@stevew406]

Jeez, before you pass judgment, research what milling is, it is NOT boxing. It's the only way to test a fighting character before actual combat. Those who back out are less likely to excel in a serious combat situation. Those who are strong willed but not so good fighters will equally win merit, as would those who can fight. That's the stuff they are looking for, not the physical strength.

[@KingLies]

8:20 - The PTI's shaking head. I was doing the exact same thing.

[@stephencockett9959]

1975. We were due to fight our best mates but were joined by a batch of Junior Leaders just before P Coy - and most got to fight a stranger. I seem to remember then that 'Arnhem Platoon' in Browning Barracks - was the officer's course?

[@davidharrison6615]

it takes guts to just walk into to ring . well done everyone .

[@bigbassjonz]

Lol at the dude with the tramp stamp.

[@simonsignolet5632]

In the 1980s, we didn't have gumshields or those poncey blue padded hats. We started from the corners and ran in to get in the first punch. Attire was black plimsoles and the most ridiculously baggy blue shorts ever created...

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Simon Signolet it's not the Joe's or the staffs fault though

[@jimmyoconnell6167]

No head guards are gum shields back in 79

[@howardsend6589]

AJs next opponent.

[@tobiasmccallum9697]

Lads you make the best compatriots and the most frightening enemies. For all the perhaps correct stereotypes about intelligence, you have courage and aggression in spades, and we will always need that. Keep being your awesome, nutty selves, but..... please..... a little less of the wife beating? Its not cool. If tours have fucked your head, chat to someone, don't push the pregnant mrs down the stairs, you're meant to protect the ones you love. Meant with love and sadly from experience

[@jamiebishop9512]

No hitec silver shadows ?

[@The_Unintelligent_Speculator]

More of this please.

[@brandongoatrp]

Haha this looks mint im hoping to try out for P company by the end of next month after I finished my fitness training, want to follow in a family members foot prints, anyone have any suggestions on what exercises I should do to help me out ?

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Brandon Appleton are you in the Army?

[@brandongoatrp]

Not currently no, I have just turned 18 and my parents weren't willing to give me permission to sign up.

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Brandon Appleton so how can you "try out for P company by the end of next month" if you ain't in the Army already?

[@brandongoatrp]

I meant siging up for the army then go for P company wasn't really thinking about what I was writing but would you have any advice (apart from joining the army) ?

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Brandon Appleton get running, plenty of bodyweight exercises and the top tip - learn to iron

[@tomlepski8306]

Flippin' eck! They shoulda been fittin' the enemy!

[@baranguvenakturk3570]

Is it only straight punches or can you throw hooks

[@wingchunmanchester2261]

If they used Wing Chun punches they’d be more effective 🙏

[@unitedkingdomoffiveeyes9765]

I'll give it a few more years before this is scrapped.....the way things are going we won't have a millitary well the way we used to anyway.

[@anthonywalsh7613]

Milling lol I remember this.

[@hankjwimbleton8043]

How comes none of them get sparked out cold?

[@simonsignolet5632]

Used to happen in the 1980s. Less so these days with those protective hats. H&S gone mad...

[@HaHa-fd5qj]

can you use technique to your punches as long as you're aiming for the face?

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

no

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Sam West who told you that?

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Sam West It's a lie most likely written by a civvy with zero military experience.

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Yes they still do skits

[@charleswindsor7835]

nowt like a good ruck ;)

[@daviddelarosa5188]

This is NOT boxing it’s called milling .

[@Joe-br2eu]

What do they get stopped for at 10:40?

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

He was being told to keep his head up

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Sam West nope they don't

[@shmached]

Lmao dude at 8 minutes thinks hes dominic cruz

[@BD_Sparks]

Can I ask, is this section required to join paras?

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Yes you need to do this

[@BD_Sparks]

Yess😂 looks exciting lol

[@deplorabled1695]

My dad at Denbury had to do this as a 15 yo.

[@Andygharrison]

They'd make you fight your da in 42

[@bunb3lxl444]

skill-less robots

[@conorl9305]

How long does it go on for ?

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

1 minute

[@conorl9305]

+TheAirbornePainTrain lovely can't wait to join

[@grahamread8732]

1 round 2 minuutes but if one party isnt agressive then he stays in the circle and somebody else gives him a double dosage

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

Graham Read it is 1 minute, please stop commenting on things you obviously know nothing about.

[@Gurugooden]

What a load of bullshit, these guys should learn the art of body shots they won't be windmilling so much then as they will be to weak to windmill

[@TheAirbornePainTrain]

body shots are not allowed, the face is the target area

[@eggycheese68]

Gurugooden it called milling for a reason the clue's in the name.....have you done it before?

[@harryplummer6356]

You obviously don't have a clue about the purpose of milling.

[@Gurugooden]

+TheAirbornePainTrain thanks

[@Gurugooden]

+eggycheese68 I have never done before, but was a pro boxer, excuse my ignorance

[@davidgarswood3483]
