- This is part 1 of a 2 part series on how to prep and complete a 30 mile foot movement. Had a blast doing this on a long weekend with some friends. I highly suggest you try an extended distance ruck (12mi+). You learn something about your self, your gear and your friends.
awesome, gents!
Thanks so much brother! Means a lot ⚡️
So glad your video came across my feed and I appreciate the work you put into this. One thing I never stopped doing since bringing in was rucking and doing so with others. Good kit breakdown and I can’t wait for part 2. Thanks again!
Thanks dude!! Part 2 is already up!
Keep driving on! Old Infantry trick, pair knee stockings and than sock, blister free
11B knowledge 💪
@@LongLiveAppalachia NOICE!
Looking forward to more content. Always cool to see how others do it.
Thank you dude!! 💪
I long range hiking the rules are simple . If you cannot eat it or wear it leave it.
True!
Nice video man. You def should have more views and subs. How meny kg/lb did you ruck with, i did not hear it?
Thanks for the sub dude that’s freaking awesome! When we stepped off it was about 30lbs, at the finish line they weighed 35lbs because we acquired supplies from the cashes.
How to ruck 30 miles. Step 1: Drive

Good content brother, what part of Appalachia are you in ?
Thank you dude that means a lot! PERSEC
Here's a breakdown of UKSF (SAS and SBS selection)...
PHASE ONE
1. Aptitude; Navigation & Endurance (commonly referred to as Hills Phase) 4 weeks of *DAILY* mountain marches navigating by map from point to point against an *unspecified* time limit. Typical schedule as follows (remember, these marches are EVERY DAY)...
Week 1 15-20 km 40lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
Week 2 18-24 km 45lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
Week 3 20-32 km 50lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
Week 4, Test Week; consists of 5 marches over 7 days
march 1, 2 & 3; 30 km 60lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
march 4; 35 km 60lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
THEN, 4 hours rest and start the final march; Long Drag; *65* km 70lbs weight+weapon, water etc. 20-24 hour time limit (weather dependent).
---------------
PHASE TWO
2. Jungle warfare, tactics, navigation ALL LIVE FIRE TRAINING. 6 weeks.
Those who have passed phase one have to then pass jungle training. Training takes place in Belize or Brunei, deep in jungles. Candidates learn the basics of surviving and patrolling in the harsh conditions. UKSF jungle patrols have to live for weeks behind enemy lines, in 4 man patrols, living on rations. This includes yet more days of marches point to point. Jungle training weeds out those who can't handle the discipline required to keep themselves and their kit in good condition whilst on long range patrols in difficult conditions. Again, there is a mental component being tested, not just a physical. Special Forces teams need men who can work under relentless pressure, in horrendous environments for weeks on end, without a lifeline back to home base.
----------------
PHASE THREE
Continuation; Foreign and new weapons skills, CQB training and testing in the world-renowned SAS Killing House where live ammo is used. Advanced infantry and marksmanship skills etc.
Escape & Evasion & Tactical Questioning/Resistance to Interrogation
The small number of candidates who have made it through endurance and jungle training now enter the final phase of selection. The likelihood of a special operation going wrong behind enemy lines is quite high, given the risks involved. UKSF want soldiers who have the wherewithal and spirit required to escape and evade capture and resist interrogation.
For the escape and evasion (E&E) portion of the course, the candidates are given brief instructions on appropriate techniques. This may include talks from former POWs or special forces soldiers who have been in E&E situations in the real world.
Next, the candidates are let loose in the countryside, wearing World War 2 vintage coats with instructions to make their way to a series of waypoints without being captured by the hunter force of other soldiers. This portion lasts for 3-5 days after which, captured or not, all candidates report for TQ.
Tactical Questioning (TQ) tests the prospective UKSF men's ability to resist interrogation. They are treated roughly by their interrogators, often made to stand in 'stress positions' for hours at a time, while disorientating white noise is blasted at them. When their turn for questioning comes, they must only answer with the so-called 'big 4' (name, rank, serial number and date of birth). All other questions must be answered with 'I'm sorry but I cannot answer that question.' Failure to do so results in failing the course. The questioners will use all sorts of tricks to try and get a reaction from the candidates. They may act friendly and try to get their subjects chatting; or they stand inches away from their subjects and scream unfavourable remarks about the sexual habits of their mothers. Female interrogators may laugh at the size of their subject's manhood. Of course, a real interrogation would be a lot more harsh and the subject would not know that they get to leave alive when it's all over. That said, days of interrogations and enduring the stress positions and white noise break down a man's sense of time and reality. UKSF are looking for men who can withstand such treatment long enough so that the effects of revealing any operational information they might have can be lessoned by HQ.
------------------------------------------------------------
This is 6 months in, successful candidates for the SAS are now badged and report to Hereford, the home of 22 SAS.
The SBS candidates still have a further selection/continuation phase to complete before being badged and report Royal Marines Poole, the home of the SBS.
Completion of this 6 month selection course is NOT the end. They then start SF training (which never ends) and for the 1st year in particular are on probation; they can be sent back to their original unit at any time.
All this preparedness and no plan for cryptids smh. 😔
We don’t move at night 🫣
Got a plan. " Cmon wit it din. This will be the last home your demonic ass messes with "
I wouldn't worry about that
The amount of water is crazy how did people move before modern times before the horse ?
Follow the creeks and streams I guess
@@LongLiveAppalachianah, people would drink at least a liter at sources and carry about a liter or two max for multi day hunts. Spent a long time hunting black tailed jack rabbit in the Mojave like that. Love running ultra marathons in my sandals in the wilderness/high desert. Reminds me what life was supposed to be like for us. Lol didn't even have to tell us you're military, just show us the zyns first thing. Always amazing to me how far behind the military is compared to the civilian market on outdoor survival equipment because they bought everything at a surplus to be kindergartner proof forty years ago from a government contracted company of people who probably made car seats etc. Wish they would make lowering your ruck weights a priority since they're always bragging about how speed kills and you guys are forced to carry 20lbs of BS you don't need for your two week deployment on top of 50lbs of ammo. It's really a safety issue at this point. Operators would be so much more effective if they weren't bogged down with required bs made with tech from Vietnam.
Ikr? I always ask the same question. The worst feeling ever when you run out of water while hiking. It just reminds me that we as society are devolving and become so dependant to so many comforts and unnecessary things in life.
They died
Every road march i ever made, i never drank water 12,25 or more. Thats cheating
💀 yeah not being dumb is cheating
