I served 3 different times in the British Army: 1st time: June to Oct 88 (5 months) in Royal Artillery as a 16 yr old Junior Leader. I ruptured my Achilles tendon, so either backsquad, or rejoin at 17.5yrs. So I reinlisted in 89 as Adult (Regulars) entrant. 2nd time: 03/01/90 to 14/03/93 (3yrs) in Royal Corps of Transport. As a Mariner (Army Maritime trade title). As a Deckhand/Nav, on Army Landing Craft and Mexeflote rafts etc. 3rd time: 02 to 04 in A Troop 63 SAS Royal Signals Sqn T.A. Unfortunately I broke my back doing a charity parachute jump on a weekend off from SAS Signals pre Selection in March 03. I went on the June 03 summer selection. Unaware I had broken it. Miracle I made it as far as I did. All part of my multiple decades of - ongoing multiple degenerative, physical and mental, chronic and acute, health battles. I won't ever let it best me though.

They're well-equipped, well-resourced, well-led and well-trained, and they're doing some remarkable things." - General Sir Graeme Lamb, former Director of the UK Special Forces "The Special Forces in Afghanistan, and I am talking here about the Americans, they are the best I have ever seen. They are head and shoulders above anyone else in terms of their training, their professionalism, their dedication, and their courage." - British Colonel Tim Collins, OBE "In terms of raw capability, the United States has the best special forces in the world," said Robert Johnson, a British Army officer and defense analyst, in an interview with Newsweek. "The UK is the best in Europe, but there is a big difference between what we can do and what America can do. The Americans are the best in the world at this stuff." -General Sir Richard Barrons joint special operations command Seems like your own military disagrees with you. It’s not really surprising since we have such a large budget. The SAS may have been the best in the late 70s but definitely have been surpassed with the amount of resources and funding we have to put into our training, and operations. The average amount of money the US spends on a navy seal to train is over 500,000, and they’re not even tier 1. Just think about how much more funding those tier 1 guys we have. And we have a lot more tier 1 units, ranging from the navy army, Air Force and even CIA. All love from 🇺🇸❤️
As a Brit, if they tell you the Americans are in a bad situation and you’re going to get them out you’d be like F yeah I am. 😝 No doubt they’d feel exactly the same way. Same with all of our allies. They’re all great warriors in their own right. Poland, Germany, France, we’d want to get them out of whatever trouble they’ve found themselves in.
Never criticize the Brits. If France, Spain, and the Netherlands did not come to your rescue you could still be a part of the great commonwealth . Britian was so busy dealing with France that it made no effort to defeat the few aristocrats that did not want to pay their taxes. Myths and legends are the the stuff of the American Revolution.
As one American said But fuck me, I would rather have one British squaddie on side than an entire battalion of Spetznaz! Why? Because the British are the only people in this world who when the chips are down and it seems like there is no hope left, instead of getting sentimental or hysterical, will strap on their pack, charge their rifle, light up a smoke, and calmly and wryly grin, 'Well, are we going then you wanker?

Shawn Ryan is awesome and has his own channel on CZcams on known as the shawn Ryan show in which he sits down and talks with former U.S. Special Operators.
All must appreciate this honest account. Clearly someone who has seen true combat, didn’t try to make out his team was firing non-stop regardless of the overwhelming odds. No bravado just the chilling reality that even nations with the best military units in the world sometimes find themselves with the odds against them. His team chose to use resource in a tactical manner to bring everyone home alive and neutralise the enemy. That’s what a coalition is for and that’s why Britain and the US stand united. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Hats off. We (Royal Marine Commandos) had an eight hour fire fight, ten of us and over 20 taliban. We couldn't PID (see) them. We had to call in our own British and American warthogs (A10s) to get aid us with getting out. The article in the paper has areas that are inaccurate yet its call 'the battle of compound 62'. My point is, our relationship with American goes hand in hand. 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
Anti British American's insulting us in the comments because we rescued you..... disgusting. Just take the L. We rescued you and you should be grateful.
@@reclusenz nope an L. We rescued them so W for us.... As I said, take the L. They were overrun he even said he didn't think he was making it out so yes an L for America. We saved you.
There are countless episides of The British helping the Americans and the Americans helping the British. Both nations produce superb soldiers and when both are knee deep both cover each other. A truly great relationship
sometimes the USA forgets the value the uk has been as an ally to them when they try to act better than the uk or even bully citizens of the uk, lets hope more Americans speak out about how much the uk has helped them, so it shuts up thos Americans who go as far as to say "that the uks culture needs to change or that a forced republic must be placed on the uk" I don't want to see a uk republic as a uk citizen because i feel it destroys my culture and the country i grew up in, the uk has always had a monarchy and parliamentary democracy im proud of, USA stop trying to Americanise and destroy the UK, remember all the times the united kingdoms helped you in war.
Americans dont know but it was the British who changed the world with the Magna Carta in the 1200s, a king gave universal rights to all citizens, and even said not even he, is above the law. The british also had the first constitution. The US Constitution is a quite similar version of it believe it or not. Englands monarchy was never the same, through parliament, the people had a say finally. Its not a monarchy rules all system and has been in a very very long time
@@jamesmaddison4546 to me the monarchy is very important to the uk culturally, the king or queen is there to rule when parliament fails like a fall back plan (same applies to all commonwealth nations who have the uk monarchy as their monarchy for if their local government fails), also the main leaders of all commonwealth nations and the uk's prime minister or the heads of the senates for Wales, Scotland or Ireland all report to and advice the monarchy, in return for this advisement they are granted freedom to govern as they please, as i said the reason they advice the monarchy is so it is prepared to take control if needed just until the government that failed rebuilds itself so it can be given back control and govern as normal, also culturally the uk cant be called uk anymore if there is no king or queen because uk stands for united kingdoms, cant call yourself a kingdom without a monarchy, plus many tourists visit the country because of our history and the monarchy, if the uk became a republic then we would either have to brake up back into 4 separate countries or just loose what makes us the uk in the first place, which in turn completely destroys the culture of the uk as it effects everything that makes the uk the uk.
This reads as if it were written by a toddler. You don't actually believe the things you're saying, do you? Take a look at the comment section. Most of the bad mouthing isn't coming from Americans. It's coming from you! No one is bullying your citizens either, it's the other way around. You've got this 200 year old grudge because you lost a war against us, and you can't seem to let it go. We've always held you in high regard. It's time you do the same.
I think people often forget the Anglosphere. U.K, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand. We are more the same than different, brothers. Imagine if we all worked a bit more closely together
Makes you wonder…how lucky are most of us that we have never been in a situation like that At the time I’m sure they aren’t really thinking too deeply on it but afterwards when they have time to process it something like that has to mess your head up for a long time I’m happy these guys and gals are bringing this all to light
The Royal marine amored brigade happened to be in the surrounding vicinity. It’s not like, oh let’s just call another countries Unit to save us because their “better”. that’s absurd. Anyways, all love from 🇺🇸💪
Doesn’t matter if it was 22 SAS, 42 Commando or 1 Para. Us brits are the best - and if friends need help we help. You can see it in his face that they were in a fucked situation, they would do it for us too.

That's the real terror in combat. It ain't like the damn movies where the camera pans over to where the shots came from, and no matter how many dudes you think you spot...you never know where the next shot could come from.
After 911 north America took a nose dive. The public went nuts criminals went nuts. We are not at the civil point yet. I pray we get back to who we were.
We are free thanks. We get to do whatever we want. We even have fancy old stuff to entertain ourselves with. I'm less sure why you think the US is free..seems to be the serial killer and crime capital of the world, polarised beyond belief, you can't even freely hike anywhere without risking being shot.

They're well-equipped, well-resourced, well-led and well-trained, and they're doing some remarkable things." - General Sir Graeme Lamb, former Director of the UK Special Forces
"The Special Forces in Afghanistan, and I am talking here about the Americans, they are the best I have ever seen. They are head and shoulders above anyone else in terms of their training, their professionalism, their dedication, and their courage." - British Colonel Tim Collins, OBE
"In terms of raw capability, the United States has the best special forces in the world," said Robert Johnson, a British Army officer and defense analyst, in an interview with Newsweek.
"The UK is the best in Europe, but there is a big difference between what we can do and what America can do. The Americans are the best in the world at this stuff."
-General Sir Richard Barrons joint special operations command
Seems like your own military disagrees with you. It’s not really surprising since we have such a large budget. The SAS may have been the best in the late 70s but definitely have been surpassed with the amount of resources and funding we have to put into our training, and operations. The average amount of money the US spends on a navy seal to train is over 500,000, and they’re not even tier 1. Just think about how much more funding those tier 1 guys we have. And we have a lot more tier 1 units, ranging from the navy army, Air Force and even CIA.
All love from 🇺🇸❤️
What a pill of drivel
Brothers in arms always there for each other. No force could beat the Brits and US
When the 🦅 Soars the 🦁 Roars
🇺🇲🤝🇬🇧
Fire statement 🎉🎉
... But still ain't seen one lion in the UK "jungle"....Except the ones at London zoo, brought in from Africa... Or is it just my imagination? 🤔
As a Brit, if they tell you the Americans are in a bad situation and you’re going to get them out you’d be like F yeah I am. 😝 No doubt they’d feel exactly the same way. Same with all of our allies. They’re all great warriors in their own right. Poland, Germany, France, we’d want to get them out of whatever trouble they’ve found themselves in.
listening to this & reading all the comments gave me goosebumps
I love that American vets appreciate us more than the Civs, pleasure our elite could help you out of a tough spot. Thank you for your service
Never criticize the Brits. If France, Spain, and the Netherlands did not come to your rescue you could still be a part of the great commonwealth . Britian was so busy dealing with France that it made no effort to defeat the few aristocrats that did not want to pay their taxes. Myths and legends are the the stuff of the American Revolution.
Simply the best in the world 🌎 no question
Who the Americans? If so then yes
@@dannystoddard1730 the Vietnamese would disagree
Always call the British when in trouble.
Doesn't everyOne then Kick us after.
@@newton18311 if we get the job done...who cares what someone says after
As one American said But fuck me, I would rather have one British squaddie on side than an entire battalion of Spetznaz! Why? Because the British are the only people in this world who when the chips are down and it seems like there is no hope left, instead of getting sentimental or hysterical, will strap on their pack, charge their rifle, light up a smoke, and calmly and wryly grin, 'Well, are we going then you wanker?
I mean they would’ve called for anyone to help, in this case a Royal marine armored brigade was in nearby vicinity so they helped them out.
@@dannystoddard1730 The RM don't have a armoured brigade. A Brigade in the UK Armed Forces is made up of approx 5,000 personnel, each RM Unit (40, 42, 45 etc is a battalion sized of 720 personnel). Also the only armored is the Viking armoured vehicle.
Us Brits don’t get enough recognition in the recent wars we fought or participated in, my uncle did 2 tours in Iraq then followed on to be a bodyguard for foreign officials over there. I look up to him big time as a role model 🙏🇬🇧🏴

All their corrupt criminals organizations to steal other lands and they lost but milliond of innocent people's lives ,murdered by bombs .
Yes...the bodies of soldiers who invaded and killed civilians lay divided all over Afghanistan.
@@BilalAbuWailKirtsaniswtf are you on about, every soldier kia has been repatriated, unlike the suicide bombers who are splattered everywhere after believing in the lies passed on from the fake words of a fake god in a fictional book.
@BilalAbuWailKirtsanis Yeah, plenty of taliban bodies are lay in afghanistan
I’m not taking anything away from today’s soldiers and special forces but can you imagine all the untold heroic stories from WW1 &WW2.. ❤️
They would do the same for us brits brothers in arms 🤝
Brothers in arms plain an simple uk soilders are just bad arse
Most army’s have soldier the British 22 sas, sbs ,Sru, pathfinders 42,41,40 commando not to forget para regiment 2,3 para some of the best warriors on planet earth proud to serve proud to know some of the badasses that lost their life. Never forget never die until the enemy is defeated
we are family and will always have you're back like you always have ours .
Godbless you sir
🇬🇧 🇺🇸 Together we stand, together we fight.
@@ChronicCraftsman forever brother 🫱🏾🫲🏼
Except for falklands or Vietnam lol.
@BBJISTHEGAYPARTOFMMA we didn't need anyone's help in the Falklands. That was over before it started. Argies we're weak.
Always a pleasure to help out family 😊
UK always have our brothers back 🇺🇸 ❤️ 🇬🇧
Buddy Buddy System right there, love the honesty of this guy, rivalries are to be expected, it's natural but tbh, everyone supports each other, the right place at the right time,
Uk doesnt have a very big army or very well equipped army but they always turn up
I’m thankful you made it out alive, with your team Brother. You’re a good man, Shawn. Thank you for all you do!
The time the British are coming was something an American looked forward to !
It's amazing that we can go from the Revolutionary War all the way to storming beaches together
We talk smak to our American brothers but we'll always be there for you. Blood is thicker than water. #family
"Rescuing" makes it sound a little condescending. Our lads were just helping out their mates.
🦁🇬🇧🤝🏻🇺🇲🦅
Shawn Ryan is awesome and has his own channel on CZcams on known as the shawn Ryan show in which he sits down and talks with former U.S. Special Operators.
All must appreciate this honest account. Clearly someone who has seen true combat, didn’t try to make out his team was firing non-stop regardless of the overwhelming odds. No bravado just the chilling reality that even nations with the best military units in the world sometimes find themselves with the odds against them. His team chose to use resource in a tactical manner to bring everyone home alive and neutralise the enemy. That’s what a coalition is for and that’s why Britain and the US stand united. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
When our friends get into a fight we don’t stand there looking stupid
Hats off. We (Royal Marine Commandos) had an eight hour fire fight, ten of us and over 20 taliban. We couldn't PID (see) them. We had to call in our own British and American warthogs (A10s) to get aid us with getting out. The article in the paper has areas that are inaccurate yet its call 'the battle of compound 62'. My point is, our relationship with American goes hand in hand. 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
Americans..
British.
...together...unbeatable.
There's a reason when the NATO is at war it's always the Brits that do the training. UK/U.S partnership forever
We came at 2am because we were busy drinking tea inbetween! 🇬🇧
Anti British American's insulting us in the comments because we rescued you..... disgusting. Just take the L. We rescued you and you should be grateful.
I think it is more of a W - for them.
@@reclusenz nope an L. We rescued them so W for us.... As I said, take the L. They were overrun he even said he didn't think he was making it out so yes an L for America. We saved you.
There are countless episides of The British helping the Americans and the Americans helping the British. Both nations produce superb soldiers and when both are knee deep both cover each other. A truly great relationship
sometimes the USA forgets the value the uk has been as an ally to them when they try to act better than the uk or even bully citizens of the uk, lets hope more Americans speak out about how much the uk has helped them, so it shuts up thos Americans who go as far as to say "that the uks culture needs to change or that a forced republic must be placed on the uk" I don't want to see a uk republic as a uk citizen because i feel it destroys my culture and the country i grew up in, the uk has always had a monarchy and parliamentary democracy im proud of, USA stop trying to Americanise and destroy the UK, remember all the times the united kingdoms helped you in war.
Americans dont know but it was the British who changed the world with the Magna Carta in the 1200s, a king gave universal rights to all citizens, and even said not even he, is above the law. The british also had the first constitution. The US Constitution is a quite similar version of it believe it or not.
Englands monarchy was never the same, through parliament, the people had a say finally. Its not a monarchy rules all system and has been in a very very long time
@@jamesmaddison4546 to me the monarchy is very important to the uk culturally, the king or queen is there to rule when parliament fails like a fall back plan (same applies to all commonwealth nations who have the uk monarchy as their monarchy for if their local government fails), also the main leaders of all commonwealth nations and the uk's prime minister or the heads of the senates for Wales, Scotland or Ireland all report to and advice the monarchy, in return for this advisement they are granted freedom to govern as they please, as i said the reason they advice the monarchy is so it is prepared to take control if needed just until the government that failed rebuilds itself so it can be given back control and govern as normal, also culturally the uk cant be called uk anymore if there is no king or queen because uk stands for united kingdoms, cant call yourself a kingdom without a monarchy, plus many tourists visit the country because of our history and the monarchy, if the uk became a republic then we would either have to brake up back into 4 separate countries or just loose what makes us the uk in the first place, which in turn completely destroys the culture of the uk as it effects everything that makes the uk the uk.
Only stupid American kids who have never served in the armed services think that any american that has served in the military respects the uk
This reads as if it were written by a toddler. You don't actually believe the things you're saying, do you? Take a look at the comment section. Most of the bad mouthing isn't coming from Americans. It's coming from you! No one is bullying your citizens either, it's the other way around. You've got this 200 year old grudge because you lost a war against us, and you can't seem to let it go. We've always held you in high regard. It's time you do the same.
Brits walk in the room like alright gents had to call in the cavalry did use
We save you, you save us. It's what friends and allies do.
People wonder why the small island of Britain is so powerful, it’s because of the SAS. They are the best elite force on the planet, period
Allies help each other, I’m sure the U.S. troops would have done the same.
🇬🇧🤝🇺🇸
I think people often forget the Anglosphere. U.K, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand. We are more the same than different, brothers. Imagine if we all worked a bit more closely together
Makes you wonder…how lucky are most of us that we have never been in a situation like that At the time I’m sure they aren’t really thinking too deeply on it but afterwards when they have time to process it something like that has to mess your head up for a long time I’m happy these guys and gals are bringing this all to light
Swings and roundabouts. They wouldn't bat an eye to do the same for our guys
When you are in the shit, call dad.
The Royal marine amored brigade happened to be in the surrounding vicinity. It’s not like, oh let’s just call another countries Unit to save us because their “better”. that’s absurd. Anyways, all love from 🇺🇸💪
Goodies v baddies. Doesn't matter what uniform you wear... if you're a goodie.. you're one of us.
Doesn’t matter if it was 22 SAS, 42 Commando or 1 Para. Us brits are the best - and if friends need help we help. You can see it in his face that they were in a fucked situation, they would do it for us too.
The Brits really punch above their weight class. I think the SAS is a more robust unit than our SEALS.
Sas train seals bro
no we always punch down!!! There are no warriors on this planet above us, and we are under resorced with mostly bad kit and out numbered by the US.
GOD SAVE THE KING
Our Equivalent seals are the SBS.
Less guys to choose from they can be more picky...

That's the real terror in combat.
It ain't like the damn movies where the camera pans over to where the shots came from, and no matter how many dudes you think you spot...you never know where the next shot could come from.
Crouch position just entered the chat
After 911 north America took a nose dive. The public went nuts criminals went nuts. We are not at the civil point yet. I pray we get back to who we were.
Love the British army just wish they would help the uk fighting for freedom
Freedom from whom? Ourselves?

We are free thanks. We get to do whatever we want. We even have fancy old stuff to entertain ourselves with. I'm less sure why you think the US is free..seems to be the serial killer and crime capital of the world, polarised beyond belief, you can't even freely hike anywhere without risking being shot. Yeah, we kinda wish you'd embrace the concept of freedom. We did it about 800 years ago in a field, then you guys paraphrased it and called it your bill of rights.
We would have come earlier but we’re having a tea break…🇬🇧🇺🇸
Wth
The English language is the glue that keeps us all together God Bless our soldiers 🇬🇧
Im sure the yanks have saved the brits to . We have been fighting side by side for over 100 years gentlemen whoooo rhaaa
