Inside A Warship’s Top Secret Mission To The Arctic Circle | Life At Sea | Spark

[@Evil.Totoro]

Pretty cool just seeing a random Burke class destroyer hanging out in this British battle group.

[@Gamer-ec8dv]

So glad Life At Sea is being brought back!! Looking forward to more!

[@buzz5969]

After a quarter century serving, so am I😅😂

[@SabbaticusRex]

Thanks for the service Buzz . You may find the current state of the Navy's of the West rather frustrating , though . @@buzz5969

[@Ghost12561]

love the recognition on the kitchen crew, lifeline of the ship certainly.

[@IusedtohaveausernameIliked]

Nice to see that our allies, the Royal Navy is still out there doing their thing. Cheers from Canada. We need to step up our game in the Arctic too. We all need to keep an eye out for Russian shenanigans.

[@Isaac-muntz]

Same could be said about nato

[@oznews1]

Russians don’t care about your petty bullfrog mate🧐✌🏻👍🏻😂

[@hullutsuhna]

"as good or better than us", there's a line I never expected to hear from the lips of a Royal Navy captain (I guess I have been reading too much C.S.Forester)

[@IusedtohaveausernameIliked]

I was surprised too, but I wouldn't imagine that he actually believes that, it's just for motivational purposes. There is no way that the quality of the Royal Navy has slipped to the level of the incompetent Russians. The Russians are still dangerous though, and we do need to keep an eye on them. Glad to see that the RN is still up to the task.

[@SabbaticusRex]

The Russian sailors don't have to concern their every other thought / decision with 'how will this conform to Diversity , Equity and Inclusion ..? ' The Russians are toxically masculine and focus instead on 'drills , using their weapons systems , ' and silly things like that instead .. ! Barbaric ! Funny how Stalin has political commissar officers among the ranks in order to enforce government's current thing -- now the UK / West are getting political commissar officers to do the same ! The more things change the more they stay the same . @@IusedtohaveausernameIliked

[@zlatkokovach7862]

That is because the Royal Navy sucks but he cannot say that directly.

[@FlintF]

@@IusedtohaveausernameIliked Never underestimate them. All I needed to know about those orcs I learned when their "little green men" invaded Crimea without having shot one bullet.

[@ZATennisFan]

It's a professional view point to take until you know better. Always assume your enemy is as good as you. Unless you consider yourself perfect that implies that they could be better than you. 😏

[@atomant451]

The three stripes on the collar represent Nelsons three Battles, the Silk represents the the head band worn by sailors who used to wear tar in the hair (Jack Tars), the lanyard was an homage to the RN gunners, what's missing is the two hills and a valley on their collars which represented the lifting of the siege of Ladysmith when Naval Guns were transported over land. There are others that skip my mind, such as the Bow on the cap tally over the left ear and why the white caps were once referred to as Port and Starboards, I know that to look inside one you would see Red on one side and a white stripe down the middle and the other side green. The Bell bottoms could also be used as a floatation device.

[@harvey9277]

They seem so nice, the British navy. So polite.

[@thelaxman59]

Great Documentary well put together and you made in excited also.

[@cameronsienkiewicz6364]

Lmao, the EWO’s reaction to the fire is priceless and 100% genuine😂

[@James-lz6eh]

What disturbs me is that they say this is "one of the few" submarine hunters, and with all due respect this ship is old. The British need to WAKE up and build up the NAVY becaue it isn't just Russia that is the threat!

[@BonestheOfficial]

Pretty sure this is just what they’re willing to show the public, the good stuff with the top commanders and hi tech warfare is not so easily accessible or located

[@joelamthach5812]

Congrats!!! Very impressive to send the best chef to fight a nuclear war !!!!

[@stevenklein3195]

Hats off to our wonderful allies across the pond. The RN has a long and glorious tradition. They are smaller than they once were during WW2, but no less dedicated, and professional.

[@JAMESRS58]

Surprising that when testing for drugs none of the people handling urine were wearing gloves ..

[@johnfajer7691]

22:17 "Range? Range........ 480 yards." Does the British Navy use imperial units?

The youngsters need to quit crying about not having their phone access. Outstanding video.

Is that a Typhoon as well (as the F35s) at 38:14 ? if you then go back to 00:15 they are definitely Typhoons...interesting, very cool if the Typhoons and F35s and Navy ships were all in the same area together...

[@ernestkj]

As an ex military personnel, how is it now to serve when deployed aboard/overseas? U guys got internet? I cant live without them now! 😅

[@stargazer5784]

Access is probably limited in order to maintain the highest possible level of elint security. You CAN live without the internet. On a warship deployed in such a situation, the internet will be the last damn thing on your mind, I assure you!

[@-EchoesIntoEternity-]

does the UK not have carrier strike groups? 🤔

[@IRBry]

i don’t think so, think a nato lead fleet is usually lead by it, or a us reinforced fleet allowing that to be flag ship but couldn’t be wrong

[@RahulKumar-cf3pr]

Definitely they have but not for work it's for demonstration for the BBC documentary

[@abrahamdozer6273]

Not enough escorts.

[@itfitz]

Maybe a bit overdramatic regarding the AGI. It was never going to pose a physical threat to any of the RN ships. That's not its role.

[@zerowingsx1]

Anyone else notice an odd correlation to Emeniem and the Captain's speech at 8:00?

[@robertgraffham6440]

You can tell that UK has given Hong Kong back! Only one Laundryman! They were the very best !

Ah the Duties of a "Willy Watcher" for some misdemeanor I was tasked by my ASM to Willy watch who was one of the first guys😂

[@ed6720]

The Capt: "The Russians are as good as or better then us" not what you want to hear as your about to deploy against them. I think the Coxswain is going to have to have a word with the Capt lol

3 miles away seems pretty close to be by a spy ship………..

How come the British Navy has failed to recruit, to its own stated goals, new seaman for the last few years?

[@buzz5969]

This is a fem generation. Kids more worried about TikTok than countries safety. I personally avoided Recruiting duty like the BLACK PLAGUE even in good recruiting times. Make everyone immigrating serve and problem immediately solved or enforce the draft.😊🇺🇸⚓️🍻✌🏻

[@buzz5969]

Enforce the serving of ALL IMMIGRANTS and as An American Id recommend make every citizen serve at least 4 years! Anyone deciding NOT TOO SERVE gets NO GOVERNMENT Bennies their entire life!😊🇺🇸⚓️🍻✌🏻

Lol, the captain’s briefing was basically Eminem’s Lose Yourself (close to word for word)… 😂 It’s too bad they didn’t intercept the enemy for real. Ukraine’s knocked off 1/3 of their Black Sea flotilla and they don’t even have a navy! 😊

[@shortylucy]

Happens all the time, even here in the US. It’s sad when you see your shipmates go for those reasons.

[@acmelka]

Cocaine is out of the system and basically undetectable after 48 hours. So they are actively using it. They probably have some issues w drug use. Only an idiot would do that right before a deployment where you will be tested.

[@buzz5969]

@@shortylucyNo its not sad at all, its a great thing!. The NAVY or any service is better off without those dumbasses doing illicit drugs so Its a great day for the military ridding themselves of them.😊

[@buzz5969]

@17:05 Aircraft Carriers operating without BattleGroup Protection???? A Frigate is basically just a plane guard platform for US NAVY lol. CGs is our battlewagons for Carrier protection, DDGS replacing the FFGs with multi warfare capabilities covering both FFs and CGs. I personally think its every citizens duty to serve their country military for at least 1 hitch, 2 years minimum, as well as every immigrant wanting to migrate. To decide NOT TOO SERVE would decline Any Government assistance for life. Be glad Im not in Charge fems. @33:40 Communications Blackout, EMCON ALFA is the norm around enemies, your TikTok and Facebook updates as well as your families will be just fine. As I was told early on over a quarter century career, your fam is not part of your SEABAG and serving is voluntary so if expect to be babied you picked the wrong job. Literally everyone has problems and the military is there to help and assist but remember MISSION ALWAYS COMES FIRST and MILITARIES are in the WAR FIGHTING Business. 😊⚓️🇺🇸🍻✌🏻

england navy is the best

[@danpetrescu4915]

suddenly they forgot own words ? freedom of navigation in international waters . democracy is optional ?

[@Aurleis]

The UK and Russian ships DO have freedom of navigation in international waters. The UK boats didn't force the Russians to leave waters that they had rights to be in. Now, if the Russian boats entered UK waters, that would have been a different story.

[@atomant451]

Wish Canada had kept the dress blues, by replacing the Uniform Canadas Navy (correction, Hillier) threw away Naval tradition.

All this is just posturing. All you hear is Russian ships this Russian ships that. When is the last time you heard of a US or British warship attacking a Russian ship. All big talk but they know the Russians have high tech equipment too. I was in the Navy for years and this goes on all the time. The bottom line is they have nothing to do so, this is all practice.

You have to remember they are on a british warship and have to 100% sober, im pretty sure every navy does this.. but there is possibly one thing you could do and that's nicotine gum (you can't smoke a RN warship as a jan 2022, but you might be allowed to use nicotine gum as i didn't find anything online about that) Edit: I did find out one thing if you are on base you can smoke in designated areas but not a warship, how ever with the US you can smoke on some ships in designated areas, like the burke class destroyers apparently they have 1 spot where you can smoke, on bigger ships they'll have more and maybe some vip areas like the captain, maybe a officer or 2..
