[@ducitamorpatriae5593]

I was actually one of the Commandoes who was on this exercise, and have been lucky enough to go on past exchanges to America. The 6 ESB guys are some of the nicest blokes you will ever come across and have a work ethic to match. Never has there been any form of confrontation between 131 or 6 ESB, they treat us like sapper brothers and we in turn treat them similarly. The whole point of this exercise is to hone various elements of our role - Combat Engineering, assault skills etc so that should we operate in war together, we can do so in a fluid manner. All the "my black cat is blacker than yours" talk is unhelpful and just creates unnecessary animosity between brothers and allies. Of course there are areas where we are superior, but there are areas where they are the SME's and we have the opportunity to learn. But never once have the Americans looked to point score against us, they pass on what they can in a humble and generous manner. Joint Anglo/American exercises like Red Dagger and Black Alligator are highly valued by both forces and all this talk of one being better than the other is superfluous. We are different forces, with different training methods but very similar ideology. If we can learn from each other, and the knowledge gained allow us to beat a common enemy then surely that's a good thing. I for one really hope I get to train with my 6 ESB brothers again, and will always be thankful that they count us as ally's and brothers. And for the record 131 do the same Commando tests as the regular Royal Marines. We also complete the Reserve Commando Course alongside the Royal Marine Reserve. The Commando at the end of the video won the Parker Trophy for best Commando on course at Lympstone (CTC) which gives some indication of the standard 131 Commando trains its guys to. And if you need confirmation that most Commandoes have respect for the USMC, then take a look at this link and read the comments - mutual respect: facebook.com/royalmarines/photos/a.262324093820456.81773.135174876535379/1037118706340987/?type=3&theater

[@meltedplasticarmyguy]

In my time I spent in the uniform I have bumped into various troops of other nations both in garrison and in the Middle East. Their training and equipment may have been different than ours, but no one military was better or worse than another. It's good to have patriotism for one's own, but do not let that pride to become arrogance. I would honestly take a British Marine, or an Aussie Soldier, or pretty much any allied military from any branch to watch my back when the proverbial "shit hits the fan". "We few, we happy few, we band of brothers; for he to-day that sheds his blood with me shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile, this day shall gentle his condition; and gentlemen in England now-a-bed shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here, and hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks that fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day." - Henry V, Act IV Scene iii 18-67

Thanks for this. We would have given everything to do this in the early 1980's. I notice the US Unit is not a grunt unit.

[@NotAJollyPotato]

As much as people would like to argue, the RMC are better trained whereas the USMC have better eqiptment and numbers. One thing that stands british soldiers out is that they are trained to function both in and out of a machine whereas other troops aren't.

[@hhg3781]

I completely agree. RMC training is not only longer, but also harder.

[@tidefanyankee2428]

Well, that's an opinion. US Marines are trained to function out of machines as well.

[@SBCBears]

That's an inapt comparison. The comparison should be Royal Marine Commandos to USMC Raiders or MARSOC.

[@tidefanyankee2428]

Crow T. Robot Actually a better comparison would be USMC Raiders/MARSOC to SBS. The training to be a Raider/MARSOC is quite extensive and long. The Royal Marine Commandos while a very good unit combines much of their training. A US Marine, whether he's going to be an aircraft mechanic or a Raider starts in boot camp and after that goes on to their occupational training etc...The Royal Marines combine boot camp with infantry training. If I remember correctly and if it hasn't changed, every RMC has to do at least 2 years in the Infantry before moving on to something else.

[@SBCBears]

If you want to compare SBS to an American unit, wouldn't the apt comparison be to SEAL? Or, are we at the point of recognizing that these comparisons are flawed?

Jackpls It'd be a silly mistake on your part to doubt the capability and willpower of a motivated US Marine.

[@JaaackXDz]

Carlos de la Cruz And its pretty silly of you to imply that Royal Marines are lesser than US marines

[@peterjackman1507]

13:47 I think we're dead lads

[@gissie391]

Interestting work

[@weirjzw946]

0:16 American soldier YEAH LETS ROLL

[@barracuda7018]

There are 8000 Royal Marines as opposed to 150.000 US Marines, of course Royal Marine training is more intensive and much harder.. US Marine Recon would be the American version of the Royal Marines not the USMC ..

[@ozarkmountains4947]

Physically royal marines is no where compared to us marines. Your insane redcoat

[@ozarkmountains4947]

You couldnt hold a candle to recon marines. Get for real

[@DakotaofRaptors]

@@ozarkmountains4947 let's be real here: Royal Marines are tough blokes - moreso than the average USMC grunt - and this is coming from an American.

[@ArimaKihe1]

God how those USMC must have hated firing those clunky SA80's....

[@AM-dk1wi]

Must of been hard for them to get of the m16 which a 4 year old child could operate

[@stephenl923e6]

Not royal marines. That is CLR a replica of the bottom field in lympstone where royal marines commandos are trained.

[@tubefreakmuva]

Where abouts is it located?? New it wasn't lympstone

[@tylerleurquin98]

The hole time I thought it was infantry marines

[@Spider-Too-Too]

20:18 get a little tastes of our MRE.

[@SR71ABCD]

I would like to see Agent Gibbs go through that training.

[@timbuktu8069]

That looks like *so* much fun! Is there any place a civilian can do that?

[@stevetheduck1425]

There are probably 'assault courses' or some semi-military sport facilities, most internet connections will list them, if we can discover how they've been listed.

[@codybeekmann7064]

I wonder how the founder fathers would feel and think about how close the us is to the uk

[@jamoross3034]

Originally the founding fathers wanted to repair relations with the British

[@paddy_118]

24 REC, 59 Sqn were happy to have some of you yanks over last year, good people and a great laugh still can drink them under the table though.

[@evak5494]

Are the marines instructing or training?

[@konicakhanom1737]

[@kaymac2273]

USMC are awesome I watch all their videos and I'm Scottish

[@beermonster7601]

Good effort yanks !

[@keithmitchell6548]

Looks like they're army commandos rather than Royal Marine commandos...

[@blackangel4949]

whats the difference mate

[@devoyinator]

Army commandos are army soldiers who pass the All Arms Commando Course, which is 13 weeks long and open to armed forces personnel only. This allows them to wear the green beret and serve in commando units like 3 or 42 Commando Brigades. Royal Marine Commandos are marines which operate under the Royal Marine Corps, a component of the Royal Navy. They enter as civilians and undergo a 32-week basic training course, leaving as Royal Marine Commandos. Hope this clears it up

[@spoonlamp]

Royal Marines Commandos or Army Commandos? Bootneck ML instructors maybe at Foggin Tor, but anywhere else?

[@Portland4114]

Impressive

[@quincyamazingness7959]

What's Up US Marines US Army? Very Manly & Very Charming I highly admire brave souls Godspeed 🇺🇸 ✡️🍁

[@EthanThomson]

correct me if im wrong, but they are army commandos? not royal marines?

[@michaelcollingwood5543]

Theyre royal marines, navies special forces, the army equivalent is the paras

[@downtuned9000]

29 Commando Royal Artillery in the thumbnail pic for anyones interest not royal marine commandos still the cream of the royal artillery alongside 7 Para RHA and big mention to 5 reg special observers check those guys out and the STA course they have to do 👍

[@downtuned9000]

Had the privilege to have 2 NCO's from 29 in the training team when i was in basic we spent more time in rivers and streams than any other platoon in the training establishment at the time 🤣 if we was out on exercise or any session near a water source we was in it lol

[@redcrown0694]

4:38 That’s about Right!

[@rojayblair8202]
