Later Rocky uses the same move that took him down in a bar fight and the instructor gives him a big thumb's up.
That seemingly mild mannered Sgt was a member of the PPCLI [Princess Patricia Canadian Light Infantry] a lot of combat for those boys in WW1 & 2, plus Korea.
Based on an Irishman though, if memory serves. Which is on brand for the PPCLI. When it was formed in WW 1 it's founder, Hamilton Gault, called for volunteers who'd already served in the British military so they wouldn't have to be trained so long before deploying to Europe. Supposedly the first contingent had veterans from every British regiment (including the Royal Marines) except for one. I've never been able to track down which one they missed though.
@jamiejmasters4818 Is that the group that got disbanded after Somalia? Something about sexually abusing prisoners?
@billjames8036 No, the Canadian Airborne Regiment was disbanded. The PPCLI has an impeccable reputation.
@@billjames8036 You've probably heard a garbled version of the Airborne Regiment being disbanded mixed with Canadian Peacekeepers in Haiti visiting prostitutes. In the latter there was no evidence of coercion but feminist groups objected on the basis the soldiers had been taking advantage of the economic distress of the women involved.
In the former two soldiers that were part of the relief mission in Somalia beat a teenager to death that they'd caught stealing from their camp. One of them would commit suicide and the other would be convicted and jailed. The scandal wasn't limited to those two though as the officers on the ground had originally tried to cover up the incident. The Liberal Party at the time had been looking for military cutbacks so they exploited this to justify disbanding the Airborne Regiment.
@silverjohn6037 The beating death was the final straw for the Airborne. There was a bad culture building up in the Regiment that included pockets of White Supremacy - particularly in 2 Commando - and the questionable leadership of their CO. General McKenzie didn't want to send them to Somalia but was overruled and sent anyway. The death of Shidane Arone was the inevitable outcome of a long chain of events. It was a travesty that all those who served honorably with the CAR were tarred with the same brush but the thought was that if you erase the name, you erase the shame.
Talk about an entrance. Proved himself and made a point all at the same time.
A chap, I can't remember his first name, last name Stewart, came to our regimental get-together, who served with the Devils Brigade, and gave very interesting factual stories about his operations. He especially spoke highly of his American brothers and his fellow Canadians, which he regarded as the best fighting unit ever contrived!!
The Devil's Brigade is one of the best WWII movies ever made, right up there with The Great Escape, Battle of the Bulge, The Guns of Navarone, The Sands of Iwo Jima, and others.
True!!
Good movie, but lacking facts.
@@mikehilbert9349 you mean the Canadians didn't march into camp with a bagpipe?
The sand peebles too
@@AlbertoPerez-zu6wg
I saw that for the first time last week. Very good. I thought that it was fitting for - SPOILER ALERT - McQueen's character to die next to the two engines in the mission that he admired so much.
You never get a second chance to make a first impression!
This is what happens when the Canadians quit saying they're sorry 😂
Why did I hear Letterkenny saying, 'can confirm' in my mind reading your comment? 😂
And then the Geneva Convention gets updated because of the Canadians AGAIN!
IRL O'Neil was a captain in the US Army.
What's a Canadian?
@@I_Art_Laughing Don't worry he'll be the one your looking up at and hearing l'm sorry.
Jeremy Slate is PERFECT as this character.
You'd SWEAR he was born in Canada...in 1910.
Underrated and an excellent job by this character actor.
I love the Canucks! Great neighbors and allies. We got your back. ❤❤❤
Ya...this guys from the very Regiment that the USAF dropped a 500lb bomb on at Tanarak(sp?) farm in Afghanistan
Bit of an "inward bruise" remains over that
@@notlikely4468 The USAAF and on were notorious for that.
We love our American brothers, and have your back
@@davidforsythe3037 speak for yourself
2nd Bn PPCLI, 3 Royal Australian Regiment and A Company, US 72nd Heavy Tank Battalion were all awarded the US Presidential Unit Citation in June 1951 for their actions during the Battle of Kapyong, Korea.
No they weren't.
I always liked the Fred Flintstone method. A judo, chop, chop ,chop.
Gotta love the PPCLI.
My dad was a cab driver, in the 50s. I remember his story about taking a carload of PPCLI, that had just come back from Korea, to a house of "ill repute".
@@gwine9087 he knew exactly where to go did he ?
@@mlongpre100 Yup, what's you point?
When I was a ute, Labor Day meant the next day was the start of the school year and movie marathons played WWII movies. It was a depressing day, yet Der Teufels Brigade was a classic
I had a neighbour a few years ago who was a member of this unit. He said the training part of the movie was fairly accurate. The rest, not so much.
You mean like a Canadian NCO wearing a collar & tie during WW2 - ? 😅
Man I cant believe this is the same guy who played the bike leader in Born Losers!!!!
Parade ground at 0700......
WOW , they got to "sleep in"
Pass the salt please and he does , classic scene .
I wondered where he had just retrieved the salt from.....
My boss’s father was a member of the original group depicted in the movie. From what I have been told the movie took many liberties with the truth but the camaraderie that formed was true.
From what I've read the American contingent wasn't made up of convicts but rigorously screened volunteers who were actively serving.
@@lieutenantkettch It was supposedly the "second best" of every volunteer they found because the best were kept in theatre, the second best could be spared for training.
One of my favorite scenes in a great movie
Me too.
Love serving with Canadian army. Special operation navy here. Hes using judo 26 years here
I saw this movie when I was 11 years old.
I was very upset when Peacock was killed.
To this very day Britain's true friends and allies are Canada, US, Australia, and New Zealand. All true Brits are their loyal friends too. A great movie, brave men and never forgotten.
I used to know someone like that instructor. Wore glasses and was about 8stone in weight soaking wet.
How tall was he, pray tell? Was he equally skilled at hand-to-hand combat?
@@Briselance five feet three inches tall, and very skilled at hand to hand combat.
A few of us are quite like that.
It's the quiet ones who are the most dangerous ones.
The first time I saw this movie, at the show, and I saw PPCLI, on his shoulder, I knew things were going to go badly for someone.
Training Agenda:
1. Prove the Instructor is good
2. Prove Canadians can fight
3. Explain that the reason you are standing is that they choose not to beat their allies senseless.
4. Demonstrate why not to underestimate the ability of a polite man (who is not a whimp) to pick a fight. They have seen most of the tricks.
Have always loved this movie.
Get all this. But why is the coffee cold?
The Canadian 2nd and 3rd divisions suffered the highest casualty rate per capita of any Allied army in the Normandy campaign. The Canadian 3rd division, despite taking heavy casualties on D-Day, was tasked with defending the D-Day beachheads against German counter-attacks. They defeated repeated attempts by 3 German armoured divisions (12th SS Panzer, 21st Panzer and Panzer Lehr) and in so doing saved the invasion, a fact conveniently overlooked by American and British historians.
always loved that scene,mind the elbow lad lol
Jeremy Slate attended a military academy and joined the United States Navy when he was sixteen. He was barely eighteen when his destroyer assisted in the Normandy Invasion on D-Day (June 6, 1944).
He can be seen CLEARLY in a D-Day newsreel.
I looked him up on IMDB, what a life this guy had ! A true hero.
Claude Adkins is the definitive Smaug.
This was a terrific movie.
The Forceman as they liked to call themselves hated it.
"Mind the elbow lad"
Nicely remastered. I have this on DVD but had never been able to make out Pat O'Neill's PPCLI (Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry) shoulder flash.
" it was my impression he was following orders Sir"
Covers his smile…
More coffee??
@@dangeary2134"Don't mind if I do"
God Bless our friends to the North!
Good movie but I never understood why they got these 40yr old actors like Claude Akins to play soldiers in WW2 movies lol.
A brilliant film and fantastic cast.
OUTSTANDING
great movie
Spitting Image of W.E.Fairbairn
Poor Crenna. Went from a LtCol in WW II and never got past Colonel after Vietnam.
Always liked this movie.
My dad loves this movie and this scene specifically is burned into my memory from watching as a kid.
This movie along with old Don Frye UFC fights made me seriously want to try out Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai but my mom put the kabosh on it. The CTE stuff was breaking in the news big when I was a teen and I think that scared her understandably.
Is it a coincidence he look a lot like William E. Fairbairn?
Nope he must be based on him im sure.
Although the writers took a lot of "creative license" with some parts of this film, the shoulder flashes worn by Sgt. O'Neill are correct - PPCLI, or Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry. If memory serves, "Sgt. O'Neill" (based on a real person) came from 1st Battalion PPCLI, and members of both the 2nd and 3rd Battalions were also members of the 1st SSF. When the Paratrooper's Memorial was dedicated in Edmonton, Alberta in 2013, several of the surviving members of 1SSF came from across Canada and the United States, and were hosted at CFB Edmonton by 3 PPCLI (In the old days known as 3rd Battalion). Likewise, members of other units including the Canadian 1st Airborne Division, the 82nd and 101st Airborne, and a few from the U.K. and other WWII Allied countries attended the dedication. These men were amazing people, and each one said they were very glad that a memorial especially dedicated to Airborne troops had finally been built. If you ever visit central Alberta, it's worth a visit (or you can look on Google Earth).
Perfect Hollywood satire for entertainment only but this didn't happen . All the men that served in that regiment got along great and became life long friends
Was a great movie
You know they COULD have just added the training announcement to the next day's Plan of the Day or whatever the Army calls their daily schedule.
In the movie (not in real life) the Americans were portrayed as the "sweepings of every military jail in the Army". The Canadians were under orders not to fight with them so they had been bullied for being easy targets. The unarmed combat instructor had actually been ordered to pull this stunt by the American Commander of the brigade who wanted to make the point that patience is not the same as weakness.
It's called an 'Attention Getter'.... All courses of Instuction have them...
@@silverjohn6037 I've watched the movie numerous times.
Always good to see how a cultivated Canadian shows an American loudmouth...... well... :-D

"Come on, Canuck. Why are you pushing me?"😠
Great movie with a strong cast! 😎
Awesome
That actor was once stepfather to the actress Amanda Plummer (Honey Bunny in Pulp Fiction).
Back when soldiers were at retirement age.
Somebody must have told him that guy had the puck ...
If you liked this movie, you'll really like "The Cockleshell Heroes".
This was Canada, before Justin.
You mean his father, Pierre!!
Or Fidel. @@bgorveatt
That was Canada before Harper and Poilievre.
The Canada of Mackenzie King and Louis St Laurent.
You notice Holden was not happy
Love it!
And so the Special Service Force was born.
Decent choreography for the time
No it wasn't.
Yep
That was completely un-Canadian today, and for a Canadian born at the start of the rule of King George V that conduct would have garnered shock and scorn at such rude behaviour befitting only a cad.
WRONG - On many levels; not the least of which was he was ordered to pick a fight with that Yank and toss him around before putting him down hard.
IRL O'Neil was a captain in the US Army.
If you're not just trolling you've never met anyone in the Canadian infantry;).
You obviously know nothing about Canadians except stereotypes.
What I found wrong with this movie Is that not one Canadian serviceman and even O Neill were not wearing any service ribbons e.g. ONeill [ Shanghai Police a British Service ] they did have service ribbons
My introduction to Jeremy was in the film The Born Losers, and went on to act in a number of subsequent films as an outlaw bikie.
His role as Sgt. Patrick O'Neill is my favourite of all his performances. Accolades must also go to Claude Akins for his comedic talents in The Devil's Brigade.
And then they became friends
No they didn't.
@@scarygary-qq1pj Yes they did, Rocky Rockman cried when the instructor died in combat

Pass the salt please 😅😂
🎵 Who’s the leader of the band/That’s made for you and me?/ M-I-C, K-E-Y, P.P.C.L.!🎶
There was a British movie that had a scene something like this in it, I can't remember what it was ???
Ce film était excellent (citez moi un mauvais film avec William Holden, je n'en vois pas).
Il est très différent des "12 salopards" d'Aldricht.
They were with 3RAR at Korea
Correction, the 3rd RAR was with the PPCLI in Korea.
Never understood how a hth instructor has a glass jaw (bar fight)
Watch the glasses.
Pass the salt, please!
...Underwood and Fairbairn were the real deal...
No they weren't.
He was based on a real person ,a Brit who invented a commando knife I think?
Born in Ireland and a captain in the US Army.
The Canadians were brutal in WW1
Jaekel got some fun in this.
Good movie. I enjoyed it. However it was pretty much fiction. The actual brigade was a disciplined cohesive fighting unit.
The movie shows them becoming a disciplined cohesive fighting unit.
Fight scenes are choreographed in movies
In a real brawl not so!
And that boys and girls is how you start a fight.
Pure fantasy.!
Says a guy named "bull".
Nope
Makes good film though
This character is based on an actual person
(Perhaps a tad embellished)
An ex-cop from Shanghai
The O'Neil Combative system
And it's still taught today
always loved that scene
Ex cop from Shanghai? One of the guys who designed that knife ?
Nevermind I'm thinking of Fairbarn/Sykes, also former Shanghai cops
@@benoplustee
Ya...weird eh....
They probably knew each other
Yes he was with them
Americans learn. Canadians have discipline!
Canadians are tame and domesticated. That is why you let Trudeau wreck your nation and do nothing to stop it.
I'd hardly call going around insulting people to start a fight discipline. He made it clear he was going to fight him.
😂
The tension between US Infantry & the Canadian forces during the WW2
This guy starts out with Trumpy language.
I'm ASSUMING this was at a time when Canadian actors weren't encouraged to admit that they came from north of the border ? Purely an assumption and quite possibly wrong.
Probably the worst display of fighting incompetence I've ever seen.
what is that kanuck-maga?
Canada: the only country on Earth to at America still fears.
Umm, no. We don't fear Canada.
Sometimes i right mild disrespectful things here just to keep the " youtube police " on their toes .😊
The specky Bruce Lee was really Russian
boo! down with the english!
Any Canadian soldier under British command was colonial cannon fodder and treated as such. Mountbatten was a prime example.
A Canadian soldier under Canadian command, well, it depended on the commander. Some were good, and didn't waste lives. Others... thought they were British, and sadly were rarely courtmartialed.
A simple look at the casaulties shows thats completely untrue, the British suffered more then twice the proporsonal casaulties compared to population (0.92% vs 0.38%) that the Canadaians did. You could use Dieppe as the only real example of what your talking about but that would have to ignore the high regard the Birish held the Canadians in which was why they actually got the job.
Shut up you know SFA
