[@petehumphries3359]

If ya know what ya doing jungle means supermarket! Desert n arctic different story!

[@anthonywright6237]

As a British man I'm obviously proud.. can anyone REALLY survive every terrain like us

[@socratease1432]

Very good channel. ,

[@torinjones3221]

But will the jungle prepare you for siberia?

[@mtksbctk]

Torin Jones yes

[@Marcopolo12as]

mtksbctk no lol

[@Carrjimbo]

No but Brecon is close enough

[@mcpartridgeboy]

indirectly yes, if your tough enough to survive in the extreme heat your tough enough to survive in the extreme cold, its just about keeping your head when your very very uncomfortable !

[@soultraveller5027]

Gets a bit chilly Billy in yorkshire UK winter time just t-shirt and jeans if u cam cope with that Siberia a piece of cake

[@arunkpzh]

nice

[@rayzor8268]

its either Malaysia, Brunei, or thailand???

[@nacholibre1962]

Belize. Pay attention!

[@billslim1112]

Belize. Its in southern central America

[@limcharles9730]

i thought brunei?

[@bootneckbenners8971]

Lima Charlie We do have a facility there, but Brunei is for advanced personnel mostly.

[@harryburkin2806]

@Jonny Fox from what I've read before, Brunei is mostly special forces, yes. I suppose they could alternate though due the ever changing weather patterns? I wouldn't be able to say for certain though.

[@PaddyInf]

@Jonny UKSF use both Belize and Brunei. Jungle phase of selection used to be in Belize, but I don't know if that is still the case. The Jungle Warfare Instructor Course (JWIC) used to be carried out in Brunei, but again not sure about now.

[@edwardal7980]

@@PaddyInf Yeah, Brunei is JWD, SF, Gurkha Rifles and a few AAC too

[@OliverMcintyre-v8e]

​@@edwardal7980yeah I was just there doing jungle training

[@gfield1607]

Does anyone when brand new para officers do P Coy? The new pte’s do it before passing out at catterick but the para officers on the platoon commanders course are training with other cap badges. Just interested.

[@CP-ne5nf]

afaik it'll be after PCBC, Pass and straight to Regiment or fail and they'll go to another cap badge. I'm not a Para nor an officer so I do stand to be corrected though

[@MrOdsplut]

@@CP-ne5nf Some time between RMAS and joining their unit. Can be before or after PCBC. They usually try to time it to get them on January Brecon...

[@arunkpzh]

super chanel

Com= Egyptian for heat-- hence; complacent-- is terrorism useage. Us= us, e- enemy, ag=fire upon-- Kaldean.

[@jennygore9833]

So walking around crossmaglen or Baghdad trains you for this then

[@nacholibre1962]

What a stupid thing to say. Infantry must be able to fight and win in any terrain and climate, day or or night.

[@anthonywright6237]

Yeah what a docile idiot thing to say

[@para7843]

CTR close target recci nice

[@xusmico187]

arctic. cold. just a little harder.

[@RPMZ11]

I'd take the arctic...

[@danielplummer2332]

3:06 is that allowed Facial hair that is.

[@t1._277]

Daniel Plummer yes cause in the jungle they don’t have to shave. If they cut themselves whilst shaving they can pick up an infection

[@PaddyInf]

The students have to shave. The guy talking was an instructor. He should be shaving too really, to set an example.

[@PaddyInf]

@Yorkshire Irishman Students on PCBC are supposed to shave. I know - I instructed on the course. Shaving in the J isn't the big deal it's made out to be. I've been a few times and never saw anyone get an infection from it. You are constantly getting cuts and scrapes all over you when patrolling, so a little scratch on your face makes no difference.

[@JammyDodger45]

Outside of training courses no real soldiers shave daily in the field. The whole 'don't risk a cut in the J' is a made up tale, on my Jungle Warfare Instructors Course it was simply put that a bit of face fuzz aids Cam Cream staying on your face in the hot humid climate. After all if you need to shave and want to avoid cuts just use an electric razor!

[@cal79]

Ummmmm ok yea ...right chaps well mmmmmm WOW this is like. crazy yea...
