    Before anyone points it out, I know its not "the HMS".

    “The weight of the men meant that 45 minutes had to be spent burning fuel in order for the helicopters to be safe to fly.”
    That’s the problem when you’ve so many men with massive balls

    Another excellent video. I think your channel has great potential for growth. Good information, good narration and good pictures.

    Hiya mate, 2 SAS soldiers were injured one had a concussion from him being too close to an SAS C4 charge going off inside the engine bay of an aircraft, the second caught a piece of shrapnel from an aircraft going bang, I believe it caught him in the leg. They both made a full recovery in 2-3 days.

    Did the SBS take part in the pebble island raid?

    • @Matt-Durham
      @Matt-Durham ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes they did all the recon prior to the assault and provide more fire support such as manning mortars or M240s for covering fire if needed as well as calling in the navy guns before, during and after the attack. I hope this helps

      ​@Matt-Durham, why do you think they didn't sneak in, leave timed charges and sneak out, why all the naval fire.

    Couldn't McManners (Royal Naval Gunfire Support) and the 105 done it all, if necessary with a load of safe and stationary troops on the ground, ready to shoot at anybody trying to move a plane?

    Canoeists where Royal marines in the picture. The mountain team would have been marines. The rest of the SF team would have been a mixture of SBS and SAS. Let the SAS take the plaudits as the SBS are happy with that as they prefer to be clandestine.

    All very interesting, and a pretty impressive - and successful operation, it seems ! But please note that in GB English, "h" is (or should be) pronounced 'aich' with a soft 'h'... It was mispronounced so often in this video e.g. "HMS..." that it really stood out, sorry to say. But otherwise a valuable video, thank you.

      Mmm, really? So why do loads of the worlds special forces take their inspiration from the SAS then? Not to mention directly been trained by them!
