- čas přidán 16. 10. 2021
- Regimental Sergeant Major James Teitge speaks to us about his 37.5 years in South African Special Forces. He was the longest-serving member in Special Forces history starting in 1978 and ending in 2014 when he went on pension. During his career, he went on many operations, spectacular ones, often as a team leader. Later he became the RSM of 5 Recce and so much more. A man that completed 53 courses and an instructor in many, i.e. parachuting (where he also holds national colours).
In this episode he speaks of emergency drills, escape and evasion, and answer a few of the viewers' questions like “what is the most difficult part of a mission” etc. Next week we speak of military parachuting. A fascinating conversation. If you have questions for the RSM please leave them below. Please subscribe and activate the bell to be informed of new episodes.

Non military guy here. Grew up in Rhodesia and quickly learnt how incredible the Boer nation is.
Thoroughly enjoying the English conversations and extend my respect to you guys.
You are welcome here with us, thank you, Koos
Great interview again Koos and James. I really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to the parachute chat. That will be very enjoyable.Too. All The best to both of you.
Absolute respect for these hard-core brave professionals!
Great One Thx!
Great interview.
I remember doing this stuff in my National service in the Hellenic SF (Mountain Raiders) where I attained the rank of corporal.
I have been listening to your interviews avidly
@Mixail, thank you, you are welcome to tell your story to us, we would be interested, Koos
@@LegacyConversations I did my nation service about 10 years ago. I volunteered for the commandos. I was sent to the mountain raiders. After 3 months basic training,selection,specialised training I was finally a member of the commandos. About 60-70% of recruits complete the course. I was seleted and passed the troopie to corporal course and prior to being demobed I was promoted to full corporal.
I spent the last two months of my N.S. in the Mountain training center on mount Olympus.
For National servicemen(9 moths in total) it is not something comparable to what the people on your chanel talk about.
Nevertheless one does get super fit and does the basic commando training (50 km route march in full kit,winter warfare,guerilla warfare etc). I have stories to tell my kids, or with mates but , lets be honest, I don't think anyone else would be interested in the stories of a peace time national serviceman. I also have a green beret and the dagger and wing insignia (Just like SAS, cause in the WW2 we used to be part of SAS in North africa alongside the French and Belgian)
@Mixail, I believe that many year will be interested. Soldiers are soldiers and interested in each other. Contact me at 4xsamil@gmail.com if interested and if allowed by your people. Koos
