US Army Survival Training Video: The Psychology of Survival | Part 1

ASP Presents: US Army Survival Training Video, 3 Part Series
The Psychology of Survival, Part 1.
This US Army video focuses on the psychology of surviving behind enemy lines. When in this type of situation, the means of survival depends on the individual and their willingness to stay alive. Without the individual's determination to survive, that person will not last and will eventually die. The individual's desire to survive can overcome the discomforts and the fear of the most difficult conditions. Psychological defeat can kill an individual long before the person's body succumbs to the elements.
On top of the individual's willingness to survive, other elements play an important role to their survival. These elements are water, food, shelter, and injury.
The 8 enemies of survival:
1) Pain
2) Thirst
3) Hunger
4) Fatigue
5) Heat
6) Cold
7) Boredom
8) Loneliness
SURVIVAL Acronym:
S = size up your situation
U = undue haste makes waste
R = remember where you are
V = vanquish fear and panic
I = improvise
V = value living
A = act like the natives
L = learn basic skills
Your will to live could mean the difference between life and death.

The RAF had a system for aircrew called a "gotcha" when a survival officer would grab aircrew who had just landed and make them go on a field survival test in whatever the were wearing and carrying, quite a shock. Those who were not wearing the right clothing or carrying their survival gear soon learned the folly of not going equipped. RAF Regiment instructors later put us through a similar exercise, at the time i was a reservist, and they were surprised when i took the survival vest and survival pack of the "dead rear crewman" as well as my own vest. On explanation i said "He would not need it anymore, we might", leaving kit behind like that is unforgiveable and could cost a crew mate his life and your own.

why didn't the camera crew help them?

First Sergeant didn't have his coffee this morning. Time to escape, evade and survive.

[@Montestuma]

"Take steps immediately to reverse the process" I was waiting for him to slap the shit out of that guy.

“That bird belongs to the enemy now”

[@chikns321]

Is this stolen?

[@lostinpa-dadenduro7555]

As long as you have your patrol cap smartly shaped nothing can hurt you. 🇺🇸👍

Why are the aircrew so clueless about what to do & what to expect? The Special Forces guy would obviously be more attuned to this type of work. But surely these two guys would have undergone some type of SERE training already & at least be familiar with all this? They act more like a couple of civvies than anything else, especially Gilmore!

[@worddunlap]

Gilmore is John McCain.

[@donaldparlettjr3295]

Two things, 1) I always wore my survival vest and know what it contains and how to use it. I packed hard candies such as lifesavers and gum in every nook and cranny I could. 2) Gilmore just became the new Carl in my book. I knew a couple of these goofballs in my days in the Cav. SCOUTS OUT!

[@erikstammers7961]

come on Gilmore

[@thomasnugent7602]

Outstanding !

[@BushCampingTools]

Take home message, keep your head!

[@heavyaccept]

Due to the modern pics in the screenshot I was expecting video footage from now days. But anyway, methods and procedures don't change that much, only equipment.
