They seem to wear different gear as well, the main thing that shocked me was the fact that in NZ there's a direct entry recruitment scheme for the NZSAS and you don't even need to have had years of rifleman experience. I know for a fact in the Australian army you need to have years of Rifleman experience before they can even start to consider you for the SASR, from memory the same goes for the British SAS.

Yes, NZ SAS were established in 1955 during the Malayan emergency. The British government asked New Zealand to establish an SAS squadron to work along side the British SAS Regiment in Malaya. Apart from the officers and NCOs, the first troops that made up the New Zealands SAS squadron were drawn from civilian street. A call went out and over 1000 men volunteered, this was whittled down to a squadron size unit. It wasn't a fluke that the British had asked New Zealand for this unit as when the British first created the SAS in the deserts of North Africa during WWII, another similar type of unit was running around the desert causing havoc amongst the Germans and Italians with deep raids into their territories. This was the Long Range Desert Group or the LRDG. The first troops were drawn from the New Zealand Division and later the British army. In fact, the SAS went along with the LRDG on raids to learn their tactics and techniques so, the New Zealand army has had brother relationship with the British SAS since its inception

Their explanation is exactly what I have in mind should they ask me the 'Why' question. Want to serve, want to learn skills and develop excellence (especially mentally), want to test myself to see what is in there, and then give back to the community with the skills I would have learned. Ya know, maybe as Personal Trainer one day or Fitness Coach to youth. I know it's not a given, and people tell me it'll be the toughest nut to crack - but it's not their dream, it's mine. And I do not want to look back, 20-30 years from now, regretting not to have at least given it my all. "Who Dares Wins". To all those who also plan to join, I wish you all the best. Dig deep within yourself to find that endurance! And to those already serving or have served and are now retired, my deepest respect. SAS has probably inspired me more than anything so far!

I’ve only just learnt about the Australian SAS, but then again I wouldn’t be surprised because the Queen is their Monarch and all that stuff

Some of the most highly trained killers in the world there is a reason why nz sas missions are very rarely disclosed

[@NautiusMaximus]

Not the actual SAS, but I'm sure the kiwi boys do a top job.

[@clivevale]

Sure, they are doing a good job but shouldn't be using our brand name.......... and accepting women? These women are no doubt good but it does show that standards are well below the Regiment's

[@revonz]

The first sas team had nz and aus soldiers

[@clivevale]

No they do not, never have and never will, there was one woman who tried bullshitting that she had made it in, but she was very quickly exposed and came in for a roasting from servicemen, not to mention women in the services who definitely did not appreciate her undermining their commitment to front line services.

There is a documentary here on youtube on selection training for NZSAS. Unbelievably crazy intense training #respect bad ass mofos

[@BrettCooper4702]

if they only had enough training so the did commit war crimes. #OperationBurnham And the coverup after getting caught puts all the SAS and NZDF in the war criminal camp for the support and killing of unarmed civilians in a petty revenge attack.

UK, Aussie and EnZed SAS are at the top of the pack in regards to special forces. There are other notable mentions but SAS really do set a bench mark.

[@lenn55]

American Delta Force and Seal Team 6 are equally as good and have the added advantage of having the latests kit and other high tech goodies at their disposal not too mention the support of the Night Stalkers. Best helo pilots in the world.

There is a reason why the SAS stands for Super Army Soldiers. Best in the world.

[@crowbar4929]

SAS, NSAS, & SASR. Same name, same motto, same heritage, and in most cases same blood. I fear the growth of political correctness is driving our societies apart and we are neglecting our civilisation in the name of stupidity such as gender quotas in the military and equal outcome in civilian life. I hope you lads down their don't forget what the UK has long forgotten.

Much respect man, with our P.M we might be up shit creek too man, waaay to p.c, but as of yet still no females in SF, which will stay that way till they can meet the standard which many men fail.
