Whoever made this video has no idea. Richmond is not the centre of TS as mentioned. TS is a tri service exercise not just the Army as mentioned and I didnt see any SF in the video and in reality no ADF jumpers.

Green beret confused me! They are commandos! As others have said 3RAR plus other elements of 1st brigade were para qualified, but when the army changed to counter insurgents operations, that capability was changed to the commandos. Now if the commandos are now saying it’s all too much that doesn’t make much sense because previously they were reservists then 4 RAR was raised and then called commando. Since the early ‘80’s when I enlisted they have constantly changed structures, roles & capabilities. And it’s happening again, so I wouldn’t be getting too excited about who’s doing what - probably change next month and who knows 3 might end up with the cherry berets again! Cheers

Correction at 0:48, Green Berets are not members of the Australian Special Forces. They are US SF.

Thanks for your advice and comments

[@wattlebough]

@@MilitaryNews12 The Australian operators who wear a green coloured beret are Australia’s main direct action SOF which is the 2nd Commando Regiment. They are not in any way similar to the US Army SFOD-A Green Berets. 2CR are closer to a mix of SEALs (Not DEVGRU) and 75th Rangers in capability with a significant Counter Terrorism and Special Recovery role.

[@diggergaming7174]

They are still sometimes nicknamed the green berets... not often, more commandos. But they have been around since ww2, known as z unit.

[@ge-spot9140]

Green berets hey? Riiight🙄

[@diggergaming7174]

They wear green berets, and have roots in wearing them before us army sf did. We had z force that were commandos thay wore green berets back in ww2... so technically yeh lol

Sadly Australia disbanded its major Airborne unit of 1200 paratrooper.. they should re raise it!

[@willm687]

You don’t disband units for no reason

[@wattlebough]

My understanding is they decided that the airborne capability now resides with 2nd Commando Regiment.

[@aflaz171]

​@wattlebough I think your estimations are correct!

[@richardmaxwell3472]

@wattlebough 2nd Cammando Regiment is very hesitant to keep the role as it required them to juggle the counter terrorist capability east, courses , leave, and other capabilities very strained..remember the Commandos are not a very large force..the former Para unit of ADF is 3RAR Townsville...they are recently to hand back out going Apc role and as Australia has announced it will only get about 130 of the new Apc rather than proposed 450 it leaves 3RAR to date as a normal infantry unit searching for a role...

3 RAR Airborne I saw 3 RAR jump into Timaru Airport New Zealand many years ago , I was on the DZ with Jump Controller An Awesome Sight " Airborne All the Way "

[@paulsandford3345]

Paratroopers!

[@brentevje5939]

No kit or weapons?

[@diggergaming7174]

They did a jump onto an island from the water, with us many seals in ts 2023, they captured an airfield, let a himars land in a c130, fired it at a target and extracted. That's what they did in his exercise I dunno why there's no footage od that lol search 2 cdo Norfolk island

[@hardroaddavey5399]

Paratroopers, not parachutists.

How many Gays are in Australian military service ? In Russia or China, is zero , also zero are in their Government jobs.

[@diggergaming7174]

Lol there is definitely gay people in the Russian and Chinese military. And I knew a guy in the Australian SASR that was gay, who cares he was still a beast of an operator
