My uncle did almost the exact same exercise with the RAF. He was dropped in to a remote area in Scotland and told to survive, living off the land and gathering resources before being picked up at a rendezvous point. Lucky bugger found a lovely couple in a farmhouse who were delighted to have the company! They put him up in the barn with a comfy bed, 3 square meals a day and a tv.....not sure if this happens behind enemy lines, so it may have defeated the object.

[@jimfraser734]

Jez Creed no offence mate. But the RAF do not have a course remotely like this. If your talking about Air Crew Escape and Evasion then that is an attendance course. There is no pass or fail they just attend it. The course here is a world apart from that, as is the syllabus.

[@jimfraser734]

@Beeblebrox One oh yes, absolutely. But this isn’t about a belief. It’s a fact. You can believe what you want. Facts are indisputable.

Goodness. Last time I watched this was on telly first time round. I was 26 years old. Seems like yesterday and I'm 62 as I write. Feel exactly the same way I felt then so doubt I'll ever grow up.

[@mhc3200]

Wonder what happened to all the guys?

[@biddyboy1570]

I went on an exercise once with the Royal Marines. They gave us a dead rabbit and a potato for dinner. I cooked it and ate some. It was minging, tasted like rabbit poo. So I reached into my smock and pulled out my emergency rations that I had brought with me. No one said we couldn't. That's the RAF way.

[@secondlastnameleft]

10:05 perfect answer, and in it lies the key of their resilience. these guys have essentially mastered mind over matter.

[@antoriamemphis]

I have a suspicion that the lady 28 minutes in secretly gives lots of tea and sandwiches to the marines on exercise :)

[@Taffwildmanofthewoods]

How many ladies supplied tea and home made cakes in rural NI? The School of Combat Rescue Survival used to run the Sere's course on Dartmoor. My fellow evaders and I were able to bury contraband on Dartmoor weeks before training in addition to several tea stops and barns to sleep in. As long as we were at the RV to meet the agent no one knew where we were not even hunter force👍

It may not seem like a big deal to be living off the land for 10 days, yet if the average person in 2020 tried, they'd crack within 3 days. The essentials, water, shelter, food are literally key to staying alive. Things like staying clean and dry are also major threats. Nothing realigns perspective than spending some time, hungry, cold and miserable!

[@RodrickLionheart]

3 days? I think you're being a bit generous there mate🤣😂
