How dare you compare us with Aussie we are sworn enemies

@Kula Cnt that goes both ways mate so what's your claim.
@Kula Cnt A growing number of Australians are choosing to call New Zealand home.
Until recently, Australia has been the destination of choice, attracting more people from New Zealand than the other way around.
But this trend has shifted in recent years, with the number of people moving from Australia to New Zealand exceeding those who leave “the land of the long white cloud” to migrate here.
More than 25 000 people moved to New Zealand from Australia in 2015, compared to the 24 504 New Zealanders moving Down Under.
Why are so many Aussies crossing the Tasman to set up their lives in New Zealand?
It’s relatively easy to move to New Zealand, since Australian citizens and permanent residents don’t need a visa to live and work there. New Zealand is often referred to as our Tasman cousin, and for good reason. Our two nations share many similarities, including a common language, so Australians are likely to feel at home in Aotearoa (Maori word).
Many people call New Zealand the most beautiful country in the world, and who can blame them? New Zealand is synonymous with an outdoorsy way of life that’s underpinned by a love of sport and adventure. Scenic highlights include sandy beaches, towering volcanoes, rugged mountains, and striking glaciers.
There’s also the attraction of a more laid back lifestyle, compared to the hustle and bustle of Australian cities. The cost of living is also likely to be slightly cheaper.
Highlights for Australians living, studying and working in New Zealand:
Education:
Australian citizens and permanent residents can be classified as domestic students in New Zealand. This means you pay local fees for education, which includes tertiary. Most primary and secondary schools are free too.
You need to live in New Zealand for at least three years before applying for a student loan or Student Allowance.
Home ownership:
Australians living in New Zealand don’t have to worry about restrictions when renting or purchasing property - they face the same conditions as New Zealanders.
Superannuation:
Australians living in New Zealand are eligible for the popular employer and government-subsidised scheme called KiwiSaver, which helps employed people save for retirement.
Some providers allow you to transfer savings from your Australian retirement scheme.
Healthcare:
Australians living in New Zealand can access the full range of publicly funded health care, as long as they plan to live in New Zealand for at least two years on an ongoing basis.
Australians who don’t intend to stay for two years can access immediate hospital and maternity services, as well as pharmaceuticals.
Thinking about moving to New Zealand, but don’t know where to begin?
@Kula Cnt yep been along time where the NZ economy was stronger than the aussie the 80s there all struggling at present but watch and you will see nz pull another rabbit out of the hat once again yep rural queen's land is a nice place been there and brisbane also. Just to many blowflies and creepy crawlies for me self I grew up at the base of the southern alps a little rural town called Oxford if we ever do get to traverse between our islands by all means your more than welcome make sure you take the family you will have a ball mate.
Nz punch above their weight with no matter what they do. imaging if they were 350 million strong. That would be scary
We always have mate entered ww1 with the highest amount of men sent over seas I think it was about 1/10th of our population at the time which was around 1mil
@@phillipthomas7141 sad thing was though 9 out of 10 of our boys died.
@@phillipthomas7141 we sent 100000
phillip thomas 1mill would be close to 1/4 our population bro haha
@@cryptosguns in the 1st world war we only had a population of 1 million or there abouts havent always had the population of 4 to 5 million like we do today bro
My dad was in the NZSAS. He never talked about his time in the SAS except on rare occasions. Sometimes i'd stay up gaming till past midnight and my dad would be dozing in front of the tv. Usually it was those times he would open up.
One thing he said to me really stood out. I remember he was watching some movie and i had just finished raiding in WoW. It was almost 2pm and my dad just randomly asked me "Do you know what friendly fire is son" I was like "Yea its when you accidentally shoot your ally"
My dad turned and said "That's why in the SAS they usually send you in alone.. that way, you know its ok to kill anyone thats not you" then he chuckled and went back to watching his movie. Its kinda dark humour because another way that could be interpreted is "Its ok to kill people as long as they are on the other side" I could tell by his eyes though that he was really thinking was "its never ok to kill anyone, that's just what they tell us to make it feel ok"
I never got the impression that my dad was involved in much actual fighting. A lot of what he did tell me leads me to believe he mostly did reconnaissance or sabotage. Like he pointed out once that his job was to sabotage the bathrooms etc at an enemy position. He laughed and said "your in big trouble if you have 5,000 troops and none of them can take a shit or have a hot shower". Something as simple as that can cause a major logistical problem that takes time and resources to fix, and no doubt creates a distraction.

@@nameless5678 indeed
Wow
My Dad is just the same served in the NZ SAS in the 60s and 70s.
We still have great memories of the chocolate in the ration packs, and Jerry cans all us girls still have. So proud of him
A bit paranoid but whoever's they sabotaged didnt you just nark. Just a thought
AUS Respect to my NZ Brothers across the waves! ANZAC pride! Edit, The Amount of people showing respect for the ANZAC Spirit is Awesome to see. To the Naysayers, if Rommel said He'd send the ANZACS to capture and hold HELL you better believe they were tough as guts bastards and if called to would be again.
A Stag in your Comments ....same to you....Aussies & kiwis...we will always remember the sacrifices they made back then and even today if need be....Anzacs Alwayzzz
Both great Grandfathers were ANZACS in Flanders and Egypt, would carry on the tradition if needed!
When China comes a knocking the ANZACS start a rocking.
Farkin' A! We might razz each other in sport, but we'll always have each other's back, whether that's on the battlefield or during civil emergencies like bushfires and earthquakes.
Richard Baron .....for sure....nothing wrong with a little sports banter here & there....we have history through our Anzac brotherhood...which is still relevant today with the earthquakes years ago and recent bushfires.....some people just need reminding sometimes.....
As a New Zealander I don’t know why but every time I see something about New Zealand from the US or somewhere else, it just makes me proud to be a kiwi
Because were the best we deserve to feel like that
The NZSAS came to Whakatane to conduct the search for the missing victims of the White Island/Whakaari eruption tragedy. They searched the island post eruption through the searing heat in special heat resistant suits. The mental toughness to do the job they did that day left our community in awe and extremely grateful for the duty and service they perform. I made a couple of them when they came into my work and quietly thanked them.
Sad the government stopped them picking up the survivors and they died due to red tape bull crap
@@amyturner6275 well as Whakaari was still active why would you continue with the search, and why the hell would they be taking tourists to Whakaari that island is unstable has been when I was a kid and it is still to this day. That island is on my back doorstep so I have a fair idea about what I am talking about.
@@amyturner6275 retrieving dead bodies off a active volcano that just blew is not a smart idea
To be honest I love this channel. No bullshit and straight to the point, thanks for the content.
Hear, hear 👍
I know. It is the no nonsense unpretentious wisdom that that boss has. I feel that he genuinely wants us to 'put that in the comments' . I also enjoy the comments as it is feed back and chatter from guys just like me. It os not the same as the other reaction channels
Difficult not love this channel, J.T is always spot on and he is a straightforward guy and a simple and honest one. I respect that.
Elijah Wood, problem is not in channel, but in you.
Yep I totally agree
I’ve had the pleasure of hanging out at the NZ SAS base. We as Kiwi’s respect the reputation of these true Warriors. KIA KAHA New Zealand SAS. ⚔️🇳🇿⚔️
It’s true, Middle-Earth does have fine warriors.
Bilbo is a carry.
Yes but they need to stop for 10 three course meals a day
@@richardhutchings1980 Lambas bread's got you covered
Aragorn, Legolas, Gimili... they were all from the first SAS class.
You do not know pain, you do not know fear! You will taste man flesh! TO WAR!!!!
A man that doesnt spend 20 minutes talking before the video starts, i appreciate it and thank you for your service.
Yes I agree. I hate waffle.
Amen
Yeah hes straight forward , no time waste at all.
I cannot stress how long I’ve been waiting for someone to react to our NZSAS. Cheers, Jamesons, respect from New Zealand 🇳🇿
A story from my dad's SAS selection. After the physical and mental screening came the week in the bush. At the end of the week in the bush, those that made it were brought back to base. They had hot showers and taken into the gym. Inside the gym were tables and tables of all the food you could imagine that you would want to eat. Roast chicken, ice cream, cakes, potatoes, fresh fruits, veges, cold water, soda, alcohol etc etc. Most of the boys were really hungry and dug in, really went to town. My dad just had an apple nd some water because he knew it was a trick.
Sure enough about 20 min into the feast they were forced to run laps in the yard and everyone who had gorged on the food went through hell, spewing up and getting cramps. My dad describes how some of these men who were tough as nails just doubled over and started crying. Meanwhile my dad and one of his mates are jogging along, in a lot of pain but not cramping and vomiting like the rest.
It's amazing how some instructors think they are bullet proof. 😎
Any more stories? These are interesting
I remember from my selection course in the late 60s that we experienced a similar situation described above. After being run ragged for a week and without food for three days, we were led into a chow hall with a veritable feast laid out. We however didn't get to enjoy any hot showers beforehand. Most of the guys tore into the food like a pack of wolves , scoffing down as much as they could as fast as possible knowing that the food was likely to be removed without notice. I immediately smelled a rat and realizing that carbohydrates would be my best friend in the situation, I limited my intake to gravy and liberally salted mashed potatoes and had managed quite a decent belly full by the time the food was suddenly removed and we were ordered outside to take off on an extended run in full kit and packs etc. Many of the guys quickly cramped up and some started puking and were unable to carry on. My food choice proved to be a smart one and at the end of selection I was one of four selected to join the regiment from the seven who completed the course out of the 107 who'd started 10 days earlier.
My uncle Willy Apiata VC is the most humble and caring man I've met..Everyday back home in the East Cape he supplies our elders with fresh sea food and wild game he has caught ...He walks with real Mana 💯
He is indeed a brave and humble hero.....Bloody easy on the eyes too.
Genuine Hero
Amen to that
Legend
Lucky he has you to do hts bragging for him....I don't believe you either.
I'm in my 70's now and I am now feeling the effects of that pushing on in my selection course way back in the 1960's.....I'm proud of these young guys.
I applaud you Mr Hunt. You're a tough bastard. You're body will be okay. Eat the best you can and stretch as much as you can.
Thank you much fine sir. Theres lots S.A.S do that people just dont realise. Thats a hard ask and even harder to forfill. 🌹🖤
1980s
Kevin H? Kiwi?
Thank you sir!
New Zealand is a tough country. Have the finest warriors throughout all of history, always the underdog and always pushing through
@Cyber Explorer America has the finest gear and training, but New Zealanders are built hard, even Rommel recognised that.
@Cyber Explorer nah butha our ancestors were actual warriors tribal warfare and all and that's not even 300 year ago
Cyber Explorer funny bro
@Cyber Explorer America is brash and has lots of debt for fancy toys, it doesn't have a warrior past. , New Zealand had some of the fiercest warriors the British set eyes upon so they made a treaty, you yanks would have Cacked your pantaloons and ran out of your militia formation facing a Haka.
@Cyber Explorer wank rhymes with yank
They are tough as nails sons of guns. After Fish retired from SAS. We were at his farm . And we all had a race. We all went over the course some had the choice of going through a swamp. Fish went through that swamp broke his leg with a compound fracture and still won the race. The pain on his face clearly showed but he still got there. They are New Zealand's finest.
Robert Brugh Johnny Mac would make him shine his boots
Fish was in my platoon. I beat him in a foot race from memory.
Did he play Rugby Union, Australia haven't won for a while. Well sign him up.
Impressive race result, what a badass...
Good old fish, miss that guy... Sempre fi, Oprah etc etc
My daddy was a lead scout for the NZSAS in Vietnam 💖💖
Chur bro! Many of the Training Cadre I was under as a Terri were ex-Vietnam and Malaya. They were great men and knew so much. Sgt Tom Hemopo showed us how to cook rice properly and had great stories.
Haven't read all comments but that the guy on the right in your thumbnail is Willie Apiata winner of the Victoria Cross. If anything embodies a hardcore SAS soldier that's what I envision!
Willie Apiata came to are school twice I think.
Willie Apiata is a top guy, hi from the UK.
he imbodies the nzsas spirit and the anzac spirit just a shame the media fucked his career in the sas by posting his face up all over the place
Yawns its Awarded you never “Win a Victoria Cross” its not like they put a name in a hat and the first name drawn gets it.BTW hardcore SAS men Lofty Wiseman, Sekonaia ‘Tak’ Takavesi DCM, Talaiasi Labalaba they are Hardcore SAS men.
@@Venimous113 what happened?
Our men are true warriors, never give up! I was happy to have cleaned for the army camp in papakura for many years 💜
Big fan of NZ warriors here.
Does the phrase "Buck played on" mean anything to you? In a rugged rugby test against the French he suffered a concussion, three shattered teeth and a torn scrotum which required 18 stitches after the game. Buck played on. It very much applies to these guys.
All comes to nothing look what the is government is doing to its people taking they rights away, veterans are inorged and are suffering from mental issue. War games are over its the reality now
Respect to all 50 blokes that tried. Congrats to the 6 that made it. I can’t even stay awake for 2 nights without a humongous headache and these guys did it for 10 days straight.
They had sleep in between
@@alekimanuhaapai1364 maybe a days worth in total
5 troops from the course made it/survived. The 6th soldier was one who was injured in a previous intake
Nah it was only 4 that made it
You can do it too, it's not about physical but mental. Every single human has the capacity to take control over their mental and physical state if they want to do so. I have done many hard things in life and you can do any of it if you make the mental decision to get it done by any means and it WILL get done one way or another. Every person has this capacity ready to be unlocked with a bit of kick in the butt. Either you do it on your own like I did or someone helps you do it like in military training.
from me.....a palagi Maori, a firefighter, and a father who graduated USMC bootcamp to you...Kia Ora!🤘🇳🇿
@Darth Bro I'm white, but from Maori descent. My family's from New Zealand, Hawaii, Tonga, Fiji, and the Cook Islands. In other words I'm the only white person in my family
Palagi is a term used by islanders for pakeha. (European).

I’m from New Zealand and have been watching your videos lately, a few of the Soldiers you’ve reviewed are my relatives and I have showed them this video and they love it 🤙 keep up the great content bro
Appreciate the NZ shoutout from a hard ass marine love the videos mate !
No room for ego in NZ. Great vid series!
My detachment was collected with/worked with NZ SAS in OEF and of all the units I've had the privilege of working alongside, NZ, Austrailian & Brit SAS and SBS, and Beldgian, Latvian and Polish SOF were, for me, the best going. Also a nod to South Korean and Phillippine SOF in OEF-P/Pacific theater. These guys are the best of the best and were awesome to work with.
I had the honour of instructing trainees through advanced climbing skills at a facility I worked at. Some were NZSAS trainees. They only signed in as an NZDF group of course. And usually signed individually with pseudonyms for thier own security. They had the stuff nailed in 30 minutes that we would normally spend 6 hours teaching ! They listen. They watch. They execute. Their own instructors were older guys. Very quietly spoken, eloquent, humble. But the eyes said it all. Some of them had obviously seen & done some very serious work. True professionals. Glad to say they're ours !
Probably one of the most underrated armies out there, Kiwi soldiers are incredible
A lot of the old LRDG in WW2 were New Zealander’s they were an essential part of British Army survival in N Africa. We were lucky to have the ANZAC lads. 🇳🇿 🇦🇺 🇬🇧
Yes, We were lucky to get the LRDG back after that Scottish aho Colonel Stirling stole it.
Yes my beloved uncle was one,sadly killed in Western Desert in WW2.
Willie Apiata is a decorated SAS warrior he’s an absolute legend
Yep I second that.
3rd that
Apiata*
D ✅
also the men who have done more then him but cant be named, nz SAS are 2nd to none.
One of my squad leaders was a kiwi. Politest sounding smoke sessions we ever received lol
Hahaha...yep I have met a Kiwi sargeant,,,,soft voice,,,hard ass 'suggestions'..
I was in the RNZN and was a navy diver/gunner. Had my skills, 3 tours. Demo and recon. Trained with SAS and Gurkas. I'm old now, but remember everything.
My mates Grandad was Vietnam era NZSAS. Nicest most gentle man you could meet. He told my mate and i a story of a real life Von Tempsky while overseas where his patrol had to carry a weeks worth of gear, radios, water, rations, ammo. He said you just mentally switch off that "pain" part of your mind. It must be hard to switch off yet stay alert while patrolling
I got an uncle who was in the SAS in Vietnam,,he looks so sick now,asked why he was so small, going from,6ft + to being so little, he said, poison form the bush, I said,agent Orange,he never said a word,just looked sad,,
I was stationed with a US Marine at Pickle Meadows who was from New Zealand. We flew over to Okinawa together. We parted ways at the Naha airport and I never saw him again. Semper Fi.
Absolute respect to anyone that goes through living hell just for the _chance_ to be a force of good for their country and community.
New Zealand SAS is some of the best men in the world.
kawazaki kizuko you have no say in this comment section fortnite man
kawazaki kizuko what a dud mate
The last exercise is hard, they do a 60km trek while being pursued and hunted, only to be caught at the end and put through a torture exercise
That's at the end of the 9 month training cycle. It's over a few days and I believe it's more like 100 km.
@@Sig984 nope. At the end of New Zealand SAS selection it's a 60 km pack march in under 20 hours.
@@Sig984 no they mentally torture them and sodomise them
@@Sig984 I just wanted to point out that there is no interrogation after the 60 km march on selection.
@@Sig984 yup, that is at the end of the 9 month training cycle. It's more like 100 km over 3 or 4 days.
8:50 I agree, do the physical testing straight away to weed out the dreamers. NZ doesn't have a lot of military funding so best to save meagre resources for those who will actually benefit from it and be a solid investment.
Kia Ora and thank you for recognizing the NZSAS Regiment for who they are. Semper Fi.
Thanks for the content man. i have a family member who is in special forces and he doesnt talk about it nor do i ask. Videos like these though give me new appreciation for what i imagine he would have to tackle. Respect and thanks to all who serve on the side of good around the world!
Yep I have been so sleep deprived in the Australian Military it’s like your walking around in a dream, you see all kinds of bizarre stuff 👍🏻🇦🇺
Note: Completing the 10 days does not mean you get automatic entry either. I had a mate who completed the 10 days twice before they said to him on the third time he completed the 10 day selection course that he was finally ready for the SAS and accepted him. What you don't see here is that you also have to do theoretical training after each day to the late hours of the night and attend psychological assessments as well.
As a New Zealand civilian, the SAS is regarded with the greatest esteem. We know if they are sent in, then what is about to be faced, will be dire to the extreme as well as critically important. There was one case raised over the last few years, which led to accusations against a SAS operation being for the sake of "revenge". I felt frustrated by the case, because the SAS was undertaking it's duties; it was we the public who wanted the revenge! I haven't seen this video for many years; it was hugely popular in NZ. And yes, Australian and Kiwi Forces = brotherhood. As stated earlier, we go way back!
The greatest war implement from NZ was the Bob Semple Tank.

The sleep deprivation hallucinations are really true. I used to drive long distances when I was in the Canadian military and I've seen everything from elves to deer on the road, side of the road and even floating in the air. This is very true.
Willie Apiata is the guy in the thumbnail. Victoria Cross recipient
Tana Komene yeah! I was lucky to meet and talk with him. He’s very down to earth and chill! Really nice guy.

Heroes these men are... Australia and New Zealand SAS...May U all be safe..
What a great video of understanding about New Zealand SAS Selection course!
Just came across this gem of a video. Update: The CO of 1NZSAS pictured at the beginning of the clip has now just become the Chief of the NZ Army. The Warrant Officer in charge of the training wing back then went on to become the Regimental SarMajor of 1 NZSAS. 'Fish' now runs his own $75M Natural gas from biowaste business. You just can't keep good men down.
The guy who says basically I gotta task to accomplish I'll let me feet rot is the guy I want on my 6
The Jerry cans is just pure training, there isn’t any easy way of doing it.
You've also got to remember that these soldiers were already pretty tough guys before they even got to selection. New Zealand has a tough outdoor environment that breeds tough outdoor guys. Snow flakes are very light on the ground in NZ. I'm ex British Army and I did meet a few of these guys, extremely fit and dedicated warriors.
I love this channel. I do not get out much due to PTSD. I feel like I am hanging out with a familiar brother. Thank you, Leather Neck, for "being" here with me.
Great vid as always! Definitely want to see part 4 (and 5, 6 etc). They've finished selection but they're not part of the SAS yet, they still have to earn their beret through training.
Thank you sir, your reverence and respect is heartening our selection is intensity personified we are very proud of our NZSAS they are truly our unsung heroes. May God bless and protect them all and all who serve in uniform in the protection of freedom. Thank you for your video sir and for your service.
Pain is weakness leaving the body. This Chesty quote is one that used to help me on a long pack march.

As an ex soldier these men are the best at what they do I'm proud of them! Awesome men.
I had a friend that went to ranger school I think when I was still in ROTC. He said during the worst of the sleep deprivation one guy kept trying to put imaginary quarters into a tree, thinking it was a soft drink machine.

Dartmoor terrain was a nightmare for me. The amount of times I fell on my face with all my kit because of some shitty “baby heads”. All your kit soaking wet knowing you still have miles to go and you’ve still got to have all your shit squared away before you get any shut eye. Weight carrying was hard but for me the terrain was an absolute killer. If I had the choice of carrying 40lbs on flat ground or no weight on a boggy Dartmoor it would be weight all day long. I feel these poor buggers pain
“You can keep going until your heart stops” ❤️🇳🇿🇦🇺
New Zealand 🇳🇿 has always produced warriors. Hitlers favourite general Erwin Rommel said the maori battalion he fought against in North Africa was the greatest fighting force he ever encountered. He also said give me the Maori battalion and I’ll conquer the world 🌍
Tuturu well said!
And when they broke out with a "Haka" before going into battle the Germans didn't know what to do some ran away in terror while others where confused by it all,so we where an effective weapon ourselves "kiaora" 👍🇳🇿
Simon P A Thomas yea I had herd about that to them freaking out about the haka . I love my Maori culture 👍🏽
Rommel also said if he wanted to take somewhere he would use the Australians to attack and take it , then use the Kiwis to defend it . High praise for those brave Anzacs that helped defeat the Axis forces.

Im pretty sure their not just nzs finest. They some of the worlds finest.

While in the NZDF I got to interact with some of the SAS. Awesome guys, my uncle was SAS a couple of my cousins as well.
Makes me so happy reading in the comments how much our little islands are respected.

I am not a talking fellow X Military myself. I enjoy everything U talk about / your opinions and experience. Brings my youth out. Thank U. Our moto from my unit was ( First in Last out)..
My grandfather was in WWII and my cousin was SAS . thanks for covering NZ we don't get talked about much well not our troops anyway.
YAY, reacting to New Zealand!!!!
Great channel man. What I like about these boys is they are so humble. Great soldiers all. My hallucination was seeing a bright red mushroom riding a bicycle and smelling roast potatoes lol. And that was only a day and a half without sleep, food and freezing wet!
Kiwi Here, This year or last year the first non service member completed the SAS selection and made it right through. They do prefer a service background but it is not essential
I like what you said about putting the hardest yard first and then spend the time really training the men that made it
7 left of the original 50 as stated in the first couple minutes is an 86% attrition rate, not 76%. With 6 left at the end it's an 88% attrition rate
Yeah i notice he was off by 10% as well.

My cousin joined the NZ police force and did a 10km trek as part of basic training. At the end of the trek a guy was giving them a debrief asking if anyone had noticed anything strange along the way. No one had, so he said ok stand up boys and the group had been ghosted by half a dozen SAS boys the whole time. They had been no more than 50m from them from start to finish and no one even had a clue.
Kia Kaha! Thank you for covering our men.
Work with Master Chief that was from New Zealand great guy! Dude would engineer some crazy stuff .
To all our kiwis soldier's serving. Thank you for your service. Much respect and honour to their families too.schnidty.....
Much love
Used to play prison yard footie against some kiwi vets, pre 9/11 they were staff, screws, one was SAS trooper, NZ Army boxing champ. Other army grunt. They ran the BMR (behaviour modification regime), call it stripped back & squared away time. Except for two hour a day yard, spent warming up with touch, then a "held up" version of league, these two would come at us over there lunch break in civvies, crack your door & offer you a run at them, they did this over 4 landings on different classifications, all factions, lasted about a month til the super happened by that yard,
Hell yeah I was in, plus we got to have a run with and against our brothers. Once 9/11 happened they both jagged that job in and went security in warzones
Hi Jamesons I believe there are several other parts to this documentary could you please do the rest of this series at some point?
Please 🙏
Don't know about now, but used to be finishing the 10 (actually 13) days did not mean selection. Finishing those meant eligible for selection. Volunteers were tri service and not all regular force.
Kiwis are generally good fighters and good workers. Pretty feisty mob.
And that's from an Aussie that's spent over 20 years in security.
Sorry about the other ones though.
My hero SAS brother gave a hell of a lot. There is nothing in this world like the brotherhood of our hero's. Love and Respect to you all. Thank you. ❤
For an infantryman everything weighs somethin. Two 1 qt canteens, a pair of socks, the cover on your head, food, ammo. It all weighs somethin.

I remember my feet as one complete blister covering my whole sole on both feet. Walking 30km every afternoon was norm, 200km route march a couple of times a year. For my sins I was carrying the radio, a heavy APRC77. Man we could grind through it, a great team lifting each other through the grind, watching your check points getting pushed out, safety vehical never getting closer... weekly stuff for an NZ grunt. Hats off to these boys on selection.
I appreciate all of the respect the NZSAS has recieved over the years. Its a true honour to serve NZ no matter the corps. The Defence Force is truly a job like no other.
VC Winner Winner Willie Upiata on your cover photo👍🇳🇿
VC = the Victoria Cross. The highest award for military valour in the British Commonwealth.
The photographer took his photo because of his wild looks and hair !

You’re on to it mate, great commentary as usual. Always believed it’s best to test resolve and endurance up front.
My grandfather was a marine during the Korean War, and my great grandfather was a submariner before that during WW2. Unfortunately I never got to meet either of them and they apparently weren't too inclined to tell stories according to my dad, but I still have the utmost respect and admiration for both of them. I suppose I just wanted to say that I respect you as well, Mr. Jameson Travels, if that is your REAL name, ha. I'm more than likely going to join the marines myself, I'm 19 and still got some life to figure out before I make that decision, but I could think of no more honorable career here in the U.S.
Haha i didnt expect to see our sas on this channel
Awesome
