The safety and well-being of their soldiers should be paramount to any company commander. Major 'Chuckles' seems to understand that notion very well as well as having pride in his 'boys'. Every parent of a soldier should feel blessed if their son has a commander like that.
My first tour was physically exhausting but exciting. My second tour was Iraq and I had a new born son and wife. Literally ten minutes after arriving in theatre incoming, guns blazing. That was the pattern ten times a day for months. I never really came home (mentally) my marriage broke down, drank more and more in the Mess. Threw myself into work. Couldn’t stand being around my wife and son, not because I didn’t love them, but because I couldn’t really that feel love. I became numb. Would I swop my life? No…… The misery, fear, grief and exposure to extremes of life shape you as a person. What I lost I also gained. Memories of the lads, that bond. I’m recovering my ability to feel more emotional again. Eventually discharged after 21 years with CPTSD Lost a few friends to war, many more with missing limbs and suicide Watching this made me so proud of the young men that volunteer for this life changing experience. I served with 4 rifles as Patrick Sanders battle group engineer recce/advisor. They lost 9 men, many more injured.
I did 25 years in the Canadian army (infantry my whole career) my last tour was 2007 in Kandahar, and what I remember was getting off the bus, greeting my wife and daughter so gratefully, yet the next day missing my buddies.
I don't usually pay attention to military documenteries. I am however, an ex Canadian soldier so recently started paying closer attention to the commonwealths ( l include Canada still) efforts abroad. I have never been to Afghanistan but have been wounded a few times in other conflicts in the past. I just wanted to say as did "Chuckles" not to underestimate our youth. God bless our fallen! And those that grieve for them.
Ashleigh's dad really messed with his head, as a dad I'm behind my son no matter what he decides, his mum was great, and Ashleigh had a great attitude, wish he had stayed.
John Smith I read somewhere that Ashley rejoined the army, so yeah. And it's not that his dad stopped him, he was proud and even said he'd support him but Ashley left on his own terms since he said at the very start he didn't like being away from his family. So he left on his own terms, but he's back in now so it must be alright now.
Its a funny world as a soldier, and once belonging to its family you are forever that soldier. Some of us survive where other die doing there duty. But we would never change it for the world.
People being cruel to Ashley's dad need to take a step back and realise that its no small thing to be okay with the prospect of your child being blown up in a war you may not even believe in... his emotions are human .
Hat's off to any and all point-men. It's a tough job with lots of responsibility with little recognition. I've read that NCO's and officers (at least with the US Army) would look at backgrounds of soldiers and single out the ones from rural areas with a history of hunting as point-men. Like Darren, they could spot something that wasn't natural.
Everyone of these young men are hero's, we, thoughout the centuries, have owed young men like these, who are willling to give their lives for the service of this country total admiration and respect, which is why 11 Nov each year, is so poignant, we must never forget these hero's.
When I did my basic with the Scots Guards in 86 only 25 per cent passed out the rest got binned injured or just jacked because of the bullshit . Today looking back I think at least half of them would have passed if only they had the right mental attitude . A lot of it was down to discipline and if you can't hack it in the barrack blockyou won't hack it on the battlefield, sad but true and that was the defining factor . I hated every second of it but the thing what kept me going was don't let the bastards drag you down.
What got you through being piss-wet through on exercise or training? I know my experience was only in the TA (4WFR) Infantry (88-92), but what got me through was the thought of being able to get out of the wet kit and into nice clean, dry kit. I did 4 years and would have loved to have joined the regulars but I failed on medical grounds, which really pissed me off as I aced the other tests. While I was in, I did 2 courses, GPMG(SF) and Assault Pioneer (loved both), I was fit lower body, but my upper needed some work and I was a great shot with the SLR.
@@PeterMaddison2483 it was a lot harder once I joined battalion, 2 tours of Northern Ireland in all weather's mainly on the border and Germany which was horrendous on the training areas in winter.
Like how they don’t show the 8 hours of getting absolutely smashed before bayonet training, fun times. And yeh the dad who was constantly dripping shit into his sons head was selfish and took something away from his son. Not fair. I understand his point of view as a dad myself, but I would never do that. Hope he was happy with himself. I wonder if he rejoined
Darrens mum, what a diamond she is, so unselfish and her speech on the phone to him as awesome, love that lady. Ashleys dad, for me he should be ashamed of himself, so selfish, how weak he is and so uninspiring, I feel sorry for Ashley. I would of told my dad to close his mouth and suggest he grew a pair.
@SnakePliskin762 the government/country do care though. Hence why we have memorial days, massive grants for resettlement, military discounts, invictus games etc
@@Jackjack530 charities you mean. The government don't and never will. Sent to pointless wars for corrupt reasons such as leaving Afghan in the early 2000s to start in Iraq when the job wasn't finished. If you believe they do care,you need to open your eyes more.
Just found this.... old sweats now dazza, went through training together at Catterick I remember seeing you on the change over in the sandpit 09 Herrick 11. Seems so long ago mukka...anyway great series you carried yourself so well...good luck stay safe..
I have worked for five years on the frontline with British forces as an interpreter in volatile Helmand province, Afghanistan, and I have seen more action than anybody else. War is not nice, it's ugly
True sir . When man finally decides that killing another man only breeds more hate and killing, only then will it stop. When 1/2 the worlds population believes through a religious book that they are to kill the other 1/2 of the worlds population , I doubt it will stop any time soon. Thank you for your sacrifice. There are many of us out here that recognize what you have done.
That kids dad was undermining his own sons ambition for his own feelings that he should control. That could affect his time in the army and his effectiveness under fire.
Congrats Darren. Don't know you, but wish I did. I don't know why, this is really sad very moving and makes me want to cry, but I can't shed a tear. Dunno why. Strange
I'm 14 year old girl and I want to join the army being an infantry soldier and I want to make my mum and family proud and I way to serve and protect my country :)
I thought the same when I was 14 years old - I wanted to join the army and do what they did on COD. 8 years later I'm about to join the army but in a different role, let her have goals and aspirations whilst she's young.
Honour AK No need to be such a put down, women are way more than capable than serving within infantry regiments, take a look at Petra from SAS WDW, served with SF, if they can meet the criteria then they should be allowed to serve, if they don’t, then they shouldn’t and same goes for men
amazing documentary, currently im 16 still in school doing my GCSE's in a couple of months this made me think, and i have came to conclusion that i will be joining the infantry in catterick in 2019.
Literally no cunt joins up for the politics, or for the “Queen and country” bollocks. Joined for the job, and to actually have a scrap and slot an enemy. Actual war fighting, that is/was what it was all about. Pure gratification. What have the geezers and girls got today once they join? Fucking humanitarian bullshit in Africa. Show of force in Estonia, and Cyprus. Blow me. Fuck that shit. You civvy and pacifist armchair-politician-melts will never get it.🚬
I liked this series a lot. It should serve to remind those thinking of joining just what could potentially be required of them. It should never be lusted after, only undertaken nobly, professionally and by professionals! Seriously, not by gung ho wee kids cos it's not a ps fkn whatever fkn game.
457 British military personnel lost their lives in Afghanistan between 2001 and 2020. When the coalition forces withdrew in 2021, the Taliban took control of the country again soon afterwards. It does seem like those brave men and women died in vain, not to mention the hundreds left with life-changing injuries and mental health problems.

Sorry I understand why he's not going but to the person who isn't going then don't join the army because that's what a soilders duty is to be on stand by for war and you will become a better soilder I guess you will never be a real soilder until you have gone to war it's like any job the more you do it the better you will become its like a carpenter saying its my job but I hope I don't have to work with any wood
@ Judo Lenny Ireland, I see that the video was posted in 2012, 8 years ago. You say that you are still serving (yeah, as a TA vagmeaster), but seriously, joking aside. Which regiments are Ashley and Lee serving in? I mean they did declare that they were going to join back up again. Perhaps with your connections you can check and let us know. Or anyone else for that matter, perhaps Tim Collins knows?
its on Tubi but you need a VPN to go on Tubi cos its only in America that Tubi works, I have a VPN and I changed the country to USA an ive found the series, hope that helps lol
The British have fought 3 major campaigns Afghanistan during the British Raj days. More than a century later, the Britain are sending its mostly young men to fight another latest campaign and so far have lost more than 300 soldiers after more than a decade in Afghanistan. All this blood and toil is really for what ? To destroy AL Qaeda or the Talibans? The former been chased out while the latter remains a threat even after billions were spent to prop up a reliable govt. in Afghanistan.

@game lover read from another comment by someone who served in 1 rifles at the time, apparently after the tour he also got dishonorably discharged for using steroids
CALSW0RLD if they think this is hard (and im NOT saying it isn't) they should be thankfull things are not like it was back in 1950s national service....now THAT was hard.
CALSW0RLD if this had been 1950s era training i can guarantee the officer WOULD have found fault with the inspection at the 12.10 mark...AND they would have failed..he would have been shouting,the corporal would have gotten a bolocking from the officer and the corporal would then done the same to the lads for 'not making the effort' and landing him in the shit ....and then as corrective punishment the corporal would have turned the whole room upside down to the piont it would look like a bomb had gone off in there.

Where is Forti? How absolutely disrespectful that they have disregarded him in this episode, seeing as only him and Darren actually served a tour. The other two should be proud of themselves too but to disregard forti in this episode is out of order
I heard that he was dishonorably discharged from the army for using drugs, absolutely disgusting if you think about it, the reason he joined was to support his 3 year old son, and he went and messed it up by no fault of anyone else, he made an awful decision, his fault, he doesn’t deserve the recognition
@@zimbabweyouthoutdoors4613 yes he made a bad decision but he served in Afghanistan and witnessed a lot of things, who knows how they coped or the emotional turmoil going on in their head whilst serving out there.
@@staceydunne4317each to their own but I served 3 tours in the province, Bosnia bla bla bla but never felt the need to take drugs .. it’s a life choice I guess

Forti got kicked out for taking steroids and when I was leaving 1 RIFLES, meads was in motion of leaving as well, I never served alongside him but I served at 1 RIFLES also.

Hi
My first tour was physically exhausting but exciting.
My second tour was Iraq and I had a new born son and wife. Literally ten minutes after arriving in theatre incoming, guns blazing. That was the pattern ten times a day for months.

Would I swop my life?
No……
The misery, fear, grief and exposure to extremes of life shape you as a person.
What I lost I also gained. Memories of the lads, that bond.
I’m recovering my ability to feel more emotional again.
Eventually discharged after 21 years with CPTSD
Lost a few friends to war, many more with missing limbs and suicide

Quite a different flavour to this series. Very realistic and grounded documentary.

He died ?
I think Andrew got sent home from being ill well it said it in the last episode
Harry Levi No he got sent home earily because he was ill

What a waste of young men and women and all the resources when in the end it all fell apart and the Taliban took it all back.
Literally no cunt joins up for the politics, or for the “Queen and country” bollocks. Joined for the job, and to actually have a scrap and slot an enemy. Actual war fighting, that is/was what it was all about. Pure gratification. What have the geezers and girls got today once they join? Fucking humanitarian bullshit in Africa. Show of force in Estonia, and Cyprus. Blow me. Fuck that shit. You civvy and pacifist armchair-politician-melts will never get it.🚬

the guy doing their bayonet lessons
i think he was in the sandhurst documentary
Highly unlikely as he's only a cpl in this. To be an instructor at Sandhurst he would need to be at least a sgt, more likely a colour sgt.

Stephanie Mckeever just curious, was you in the national service? As it sounds like you where.
CALSW0RLD if this had been 1950s era training i can guarantee the officer WOULD have found fault with the inspection at the 12.10 mark...AND they would have failed..he would have been shouting,the corporal would have gotten a bolocking from the officer and the corporal would then done the same to the lads for 'not making the effort' and landing him in the shit ....and then as corrective punishment the corporal would have turned the whole room upside down to the piont it would look like a bomb had gone off in there.
CALSW0RLD no.i am irish and born in 75 (ex irish army btw) but if you compare this documentry with 'lads army' and then 'bad lads army' ...both are here on yt to watch you will see what i mean.
where's Andrew

Is Darren still alive
Going to catterick on the 10th this Sunday can't wait anyone else going ?
Going Pirbright for mine on the 8th
OnlineFootbalManager just curious but are you in the army now? Like did you manage training?
Where is Forti?
How absolutely disrespectful that they have disregarded him in this episode, seeing as only him and Darren actually served a tour.
The other two should be proud of themselves too but to disregard forti in this episode is out of order
I heard that he was dishonorably discharged from the army for using drugs, absolutely disgusting if you think about it, the reason he joined was to support his 3 year old son, and he went and messed it up by no fault of anyone else, he made an awful decision, his fault, he doesn’t deserve the recognition
@@zimbabweyouthoutdoors4613 yes he made a bad decision but he served in Afghanistan and witnessed a lot of things, who knows how they coped or the emotional turmoil going on in their head whilst serving out there.
@@staceydunne4317each to their own but I served 3 tours in the province, Bosnia bla bla bla but never felt the need to take drugs .. it’s a life choice I guess
@@zimbabweyouthoutdoors4613 any source on this?
What happened to episode 4? Haven't been able to find it.
its on Tubi but you need a VPN to go on Tubi cos its only in America that Tubi works, I have a VPN and I changed the country to USA an ive found the series, hope that helps lol
