- Carpenter Brut - Hang'em All
Formed in 1944, the People's Militia (later just Militia) often worked alongside the constituent Republics of Yugoslavia's Territorial Defence groups and border guards. Meaning that select groups (such as the group in the video from Macedonia) underwent military style training in addition to it's regular police training.
I wasn't too happy with the way this one turned out but Mag said it was good and I'll take her word for it.

Legends say, if you get here early, you can get pinned.
Seems like... it is no legend
"no need to run..........."
Legend has it that you weren’t pinned it simply happened in our brains a collective hallucination
That's what she said...
Thnx for the tip
"So are you guys cops or commandos?"
"Yes"
I suppose they are or...they were..a PARAMILITARY UNIT..With several tasks..anti - riot...anti terrorism.... maintain the public order in rural areas and so on.in case of war I think they pass under the contoll of the army...
@@pietroboggio8353 wrong, they are police unit. In old Yugoslavia "milicija/ militia" was official name for the police. Even nowadays in ex-Yugoslavia among people term militia is more akin to the police then to paramilitary units not under direct control of state like in rest of the world.
Its like a hardcore poilce unit thats isnt called anything special. Think if you called SWAT jjst police
"both"
Thugs in uniform.
Goddamn the badassery of kicking down the door all at once
I think that it's made just for action. It's really dangerous as there can be someone inside and you will get shot
I agree. That was, hope you don’t mind me saying, a serious 👊🏽 Chuck Norris move.

The badassery of wearing a visored helmet with a gas mask all at once.
Exactly
Ah yes. if it isnt our favourite Milicija Mondays.

I guess every military in the world practiced Karate in the 80s. Thats badass
In the mid to late 80s we had a ninja craze. Like nation wide nindja obsession.
Still special units do especially here in Serbia and the police
In retrospective a lot of the jumping and rolling to get into firing positions and the karate they show looks like it's really ineffective and a good way to get yourself killed lol. But I guess this was more of a promo clip than actual training, and I can see where 80s Euro action movies get their inspiration from
That's not millitary, in Yugoslavia, regular police units were called Milicija!
some police forces still do, especially the special divisions. my father-in-law spent about 40 years in the police here in Brazil and fights 4 martial arts, including karate, judo and jiu-jitsu
That feeling when you're a police force doing mountain ops in tracksuits with no support equipment.
They had support equipments...and a force like this must be able to go everywhere...in all the territory of the nation...include mountains...very common in that country!!!!!!
@@pietroboggio8353 How'd that work out for them?
@@hiota45 very well
@@hiota45well enough, they aren’t omniscient gods so they can’t be perfect but they were able to get the job done
@@pietroboggio8353 the serbian police (the successor to these guys) actually fought as an armed force in the kosovo war
In the 80s, the police protected the state from any forms of rebellion. In the 90s, the militia fought wars and the mafia.
It kept 3 different ethnicities from fighting. I'm glad Tito had an Iron Fist. The power vacuum after was pretty wack tho
@Serbon Resurrected He meant Croats, Serbs, Bosniaks/Muslims
@Serbon Resurrected Muslims by nationality were viewed by the Yugoslav goverment as a seperate ethnic group.
Muslim=Ethnic
muslim=by religion
This was how the Yugoslav census saw it
@@Revitalization4241 so in the census, you could be a Muslim Atheist.
Oh and for a long time Bosniaks weren't recognised at all, they were basically forced to identify as Yugoslavs if they weren't Serbs or Croats
@Serbon Resurrected Bosniaks did
A decade before everything went really dark.
Romania was also quite extreme, although just a brief revolution.
This is Macedonia though so not really
It was never going to last. Communism doesn't work well under free will as it lacks self interest which is a natural human trait. It's why so many are totalitarian or mixed with Capitalist ideals. It was also never a good idea to force a whole bunch of cultures into being one
@@jamalwilburn228 titoism - mix of liberalism and socialism
@@jamalwilburn228 whole bunch culture in one is exactly what makes all great countries moving forward , in our case we just don’t know how to live with each other easily manipulated living in the past, and just for record YU never had hard form of communism more like social democracy leaning more to capitalism
My dad was almost beaten toothless by these guys in Prishtina. He told me:
"This is actual riot control"
It's really sad how much Albanians suffered for no good reason. If our politicians weren't corrupt warmongering maniacs, we would be living together.
But still there are nationalist, and people who hate slavs, I wish Albanians and Serbs could live peacefuly but we live in th3 balkans and sadly border conflicts and broather wars are tradition ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Malësor_ Dukagjinit Tito has entered the chat
@Malësor_ Dukagjinit Well, Kosovo is Serbia. Tito just basically imported you people, gave you some extra rights and and you act like you were there for a millenium.

The uniform and helmet looks glorious and unique at the time. Just epic.

MajorSamm, Yugoslavia AND Carpenter Brut?! This is the best combination ever
i opened the vid and knew it sounded familiar :)
This song slaps
oh, to be a mob boss in mid-‘80s Yugoslavia, sleeping with one eye open on the fear some cop in a flak jacket will jump-kick down your door and spray you with his Skorpion
We had no mob bosses here until it all broke down. The general idea was to beat the shit of potential criminals when they were starting young and kick them back out tomorrow morning. No courts or prison involved for petty crime (the one that leads to actual economic crime). It was an amazingly effective system that we reap the benefits of even today, since we are some of the safest countries in the world. Not to say that organized crime doesn't exist, but western type of gang violence is non existent.
@@arsic094 my friends dad is a police officer in Sarajevo, Bosnia. To quote him
"We arrest them (criminals), they (judges and prosecutors) let them go. If they decide to also stop us from beating them up, then we as a police force will be useless.

@@arsic094 keep drinking that propaganda juice, and yeah you'd love to experience that system on yourself I bet
@@user-ue4nq3kc3j seems like they are already pretty useless
Imagine ur just a wanted criminal chilling on a snow-capped mountain and all of a sudden a whole platoon of milicjia guys jumps out of a heli without parachutes and drench your body in bullets and teargas.
And then a MILITSIYA BTR80 runs you over too
@@lani6647 I agree with you about all....but do not forget one thing: at that time in yugoslavia there was not a real democracy..at least for occidental eyes.probably was not a real dictature but police had more power to "'crash your face"..then in any occidental country.they had different laws...different menthality....different style of life...I said DIFFERENT..not WORST!!!!
@@pietroboggio8353 it was better then any democracy the police only Got corrupt in 85
On the contrary, I think this editing, music choice and footage is some of the best we've seen on your channel. You give War Aesthetics a real run for his money.
This
I loved the timing of the beat drop with thr visor going down and synced door jump.
@@jamalwilburn228 it was practically flawless...

prob because they're not a police force but a militia...technically an army...
@@AKAtheA it's not really a militia - it is, indeed, a police force with a different name. Militia, or Milicja, was called this way to represent the fact that they're the people's force.
@@giovannicervantes2053 yes, without him Yugoslavia is nothing
you really are spoiling us this upload spike is insane and all of these videos are really high quality so thank you
Even James Bond wouldn't stand a chance against these bad boys.
Bah. Actual soldiers looked at them and saw thugs. Some of them were competent but lots of Yugoslav police units were little more than underpaid thugs with little real investigative or legal training. Nice uniforms but the smart people were leaving or put into different jobs. The former police units were involved in a lot of the organized crime and murders (and plenty of the ethnic murders as well).

The best part of the video
Should've posted this on Milicija Monday. We can wait an extra 2 days.
Hella Agreed on this
No mafia , no drugs, no locked doors of houses in those days.
I mean ... Alcohol is hard drugs ... so that's not true
Its very nice not having to hear MGMT's little dark age for once
Little Dark Age is a banger, but since it's popular, it can be tiring
Filmed in '83 at Idrizovo Militia Barracks near Skopje, Socialist Republic of Macedonia. Now there's an Academy of State Security of North Macedonia.
Less than a decade later these guys would turn against each other in a civil war. I wonder how many times they met former comrades on the battlefield.
Helmet, shirt with tie, leather jacket, shield and kalachnikov
I dig this vibe
The M70 is probably my favorite AK variant. So sexy
It's also most high quality AK in the world... or maybe just outside Russia
@@kajmak64bit76 The highest quality AK's in my opinion are the milled receiver Bulgarian rifles, most people will agree
.the Galil is bes.t reliable ak
My dad was one of these guys, member of Federal Ministry of Interior Batallion for Special Actions. Can’t wait to show this to him. His unit had the best gear from the east AND the west (mostly west). I still have that helmet at home, made in West Germany. These guys are not federal police, I’ll ask and update the comment from which republic they are, they are distiguishable by license plates first number (in this case it is 4).
So is he happy to be a part of looser organisation with its fancy Western equipment which cant save its own country?
@@postgradsibstud9321 Thing is that many did not want to save their own country and wanted to create their own, smaller countries which are not part of a federation. Many countries, mostly western were very happy to quickly support the separatist factions and they did very little to try to force all sides to work on a peaceful solution before things went passed the point of no return. I (my entire family as well) understand all sides and my family is not ethnically homogeneous. I consider myself Yugoslav - my country is gone but I love all of the people of the former country and I am happy of every success of all of the countries that used to be Yugoslavia. Normal people, most people did not want to kill each other but there were small groups in the beginning that started the fire and soon many people were fighting, mostly for survival. If only Yugoslavia split like Czechoslovakia...
Again, the question you asked, this is the best explanation - imagine living in a home with your extended family. You all live and have a beautiful multi-story house and you all keep it pretty and invest in it. One day, there is a minor argument between you and your brother. Argument starts small but it gets worse. Then a neighbor who is down the street tells him that he is right and keeps watching from the side. Then argument gets bigger and your sister gets involved, then your father, mother. Everybody is arguing and someone slaps someone. Then the neighbor quickly tells the slapped person "You should immediately lock yourself in your part of the house and I will help you, leave those people fighting, you're better off without them". And then, a chain reaction starts. Neighbor goes home and your entire family starts fighting each other, putting walls in the house, splitting the yard, fighting. At the end, everybody tells neighbors they are happy in their small part of the house. They keep living, hurt and missing something (more or less), but they are no longer a big family. My dad fondly remembers his colleagues, even the ones who switched sides. I have no hard feeling to anyone except the ones who waged war for profits or just do harm.
@@philipthepirate1762 thank you for this, much love from the USA

@@postgradsibstud9321 its not like the west bombed the countries army when it was trying to pacify the separatists
Yugoslavia, carpenter brut, and karate
Epic!
The guys roll into work on Monday morning and knock quietly on the office door-
"Hey Sarge, what we doing this week?"
"Just the usual, my boys. Milicija-ing the shit out of things."
The whole thing in this video is just perfect for this music
These boys really be built differently, jumping out of helicopters and shit.
Yugoslavia had some of the most unique and the most badass uniform i've ever seen
this is recorded in 1981 or 1982 this police unit still exist today their name is special operation unit "TIGERS"they are formed 13 march 1981 the oldest special operation unit in my homeland
When public safety was a responsibility of these guys you could sleep off your booze on a bench in the darkest corner of a public park and no one would dare to even touch you. I remember they would assert dominance just by showing up. Even one, single, a bit overweight cop.
Видео из страны, которой уже нет. Привет из страны, которой тоже уже нет !
Это как?
@@FoXy_4 Видео из Югославии, которой уже нет. А я родилась и училась в Союзе, которого тоже уже нет.
Crazy that this was less than half a century ago and now completely divided into different nation states. Shit turned sour fast after the 90s.
Tito died...
I didnt live in time when this police forces operated but the legend say's that the kidney's were shakin' and heads were bumping.
Only if you were doing something of illegal ...according of their laws.
Thank Mr Samm. Yugoslav heritage so I really love all of your videos in that area.
Hajde bre ya sam srpski
there is no yugoslav heritage. yugoslav is a made up term
Aesthetically pleasing as always Sam
Milijica are one of my favorites. Yugoslavia is that one country you will never hate.
Unless you're a South Slavic dude
Or unless your me
You guys are right hahahah
@@ELhoTebrah i as a south slavic dude dont hate jugoslavija
Unless you're Albanian
You took this genre of combat footage edits and elevated it, Samm. Thanks for all the work you put in. You're the king.
When that beat drops with the helmet visor going down and kicking down the doors simultaneously and I clicked like right after...just watched like 3 of majorsamm's videos and subscribed! Haha sir you do great work!
There is just so much acrobatics involved in Yugoslav policing. You could just jump off of an armoured vehicle... or jump WHILST doing a 360° flip!
Ngl, the Helmet w/ visor + Gasmask combo looks cool as hell
This video is so good! I love the way you synced the music with the footage
Sees Carpenter Brut in description, oh yeah, it's all coming together.
I feel in live with the editing and the music timing was spot on one of the best yet
8 months later, this is my favorite first video I have watched on your channel.
Thank you major, you've given me another topic of information to include in my presentation
Very good video MajorSamm never disappoints
Sam i just want to tell you I love you, your edeting and choice of Music is insane. Thank you for many hours of entertainment and the hughe amount of reading I did on conflics you Cover.

I expected this! IT'S MILICIJA MONDAY
Safety Saturday
Yugo vid. Makes the pain go away. Hi from Belgrade Samm, Hope you are doing well.
Evala iz hrvatske
Ayup Sam, another cracking vid, and another one that’s got me Googling to find out more about the video subject.
Music kicks in as the door's kicked in 💥! Brilliant 👍. Good job M.S.😷
Another one? So soon!? Hey im Not complaining, Samm's vids are always A1
When I watch these I always think if any of these men are still alive today
If there aren't I'd be surprised, but they're probably like 50 or older by now
many of them are still alive
maybe they killed eachother during the wars in the 90's....
They are probably alive today but some of them maybe died during the war
I don't know why but this is one of the greatest things I have seen in my life. Thank you for creating this.
A majorsamm video with some carpenter brut, am in love
Damm I didn't know our Milicija had BTRs until I saw this footage. Regards from Serbia.
The police used to use the Romanian made TAB-71 variant.
we need the Milicija now more than ever
also loved the Cyrpus '74 video 🇬🇷🇨🇾
Another MajorSamm's video, ooohhh yeah.
Nice video, dude.
Thanks man
I love this vids and the song i literally sleep with vids on and see the vid in my dreams they are so cool
I have 56 years old, tank for this video before the war I live in Belgrado good time
Come again, Belgrade is a much better now then during the 80ies.
They're dolphin diving, good strat, I gotta see Milicija b-hopping next though
As usual MajorSamm never disappoints.
I love the music u put in these montages
Damn you Samm, bested me again!
As soon as I heard "Hang em All" unexpectedly start playing I knew this was going to be the coolest video in a while
Just ordered some shirts. Love the content! Keep it coming
I love this video. The music matches really perfectly with those fit moves
As a Serb. This is awesome !

Don't get yourself down Major, this was great work! One question: would it be possible for you to provide a link to the documentary if it's on youtube? As someone who's fascinated by the Balkans I'd be very interested in seeing it, and I'm sure a lot of other people would too.

Golden years. Zivjela JUGOSLAVIA
This can be one of your best
MajorSamm never dissapoints
Them jumping door kicks are pretty awesome
this is such a cool video
Ah the 80's where dropkicking doors and doing barrel rolls were probably impractical but just plain badass.
Actually it might be practical, the enemy will be surprised and amazed by how you kicked down the door so hard that he'll stop doing what he was doing which gives you plenty of time beat him up.
To be fair the enemy would have very little time to react compared to just slamming your foot in repeatedly
you still roll while in combat. You fire a few shots and then you roll so you have some more chance to confuse the enemy and not get hit when you get up to change position.
This is an epic edit! I’d love to use it as visuals for a music video. Happy to credit you of course 🙌
Where is my local coördinated door kicking team. this looks cool as fuck
