- American Couple Reacts: Defending Britain: Who Keeps The Country Safe? THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE WATCH
Our love for all things Military continues with this incredible episode of the lesser known, day to day defense within the British Military. This covers the RAF, Coldstream Guards, Royal Navy and more! There's so much that we take for granted everyday that the military works hard to protect us from. This video gives an insight into that and it's AMAZING!! We always want to thank the Active Duty Soldier and the Veterans for your brave service and sacrifice!! God Bless each of you!
Our Militaries together are unstoppable and this fills us with pride as much as it will you.

Half of the Monarchs Guard annual service is on operations and the other is ceremonial. When Coldstream Guards are concerned its the 1st Battalion and No.7 Company which are the two ceremonial as such units for them. Grenadiers its Nijmegan Company (the first of foot they were, but their rivals Coldstream (both being English regiments) is the oldest in the whole army.
Questions guys, do the US armed forces not have bayonets?
@eddhardy1054 yes they do.
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow Thanks for answering so promptly. I'm sure in modern warfare there are some armies that probably don't do bayonet practice anymore
There's a common misconception that British people don't care or understand what our military do. Nothing could be further from the truth. Do we take them for granted, yes to a point. But that's because we have high expectations and demands built on past standards. It's been that way for centuries.
If I remember correctly, all British armoured vehicles built since 1948 have the ability to make tea...its actually called a 'Boiling Vessel' and can be used to heat up food as well as make tea. Some time in the last few years the US Army adopted Boiling Vessels for their vehicles. All be need to do now is to get them to drink tea as well!
..and you don't want to be the crow who let's it run dry!! 😂
BV access was the key reason for me to join an an armoured RE sqn...
True story. The BV is a war winner.
No they haven’t only certain vehicles get that tech the rest of the military rely on mark one brew kit
Yep, US forces use them for heating up MRE rations?
Surely you don't expect us Brits to fight without tea? What kind of world do you live in 😂😂😂✌️♥️🇬🇧
😂😂😂😂
I was a police dog handler here in the UK. Things may have changed as a I retired 10 years ago but in general we do not duel train search and patrol dogs. German shepherds and Malinois are generally used for patrol work and other breeds for more specific searching: drugs explosives money etc. Our search dogs are very rarely duel substance trained. i.e. a dog would not be trained for drugs AND explosives. It is very much an either or situation. In answer to your question the military dogs cover military airfields, our civilian airfields are covered the UK Border Force / HM Customs. and the police cover almost everything else. I myself worked German Shepherds for police patrol work and a Labrador for explosive detection.
Thank you for your service David
second that, we had mals for clearing buildings in afghan then IED dogs were always collies and other breeds
The reasoning for not using protection breeds for specialised detection work, as explained to me, was that protection breeds are perceived as aggressive and threatening by the general public which cisnt good in public scenarios like airports and train stations where you want people to pass close by without them thinking they are going to get their face bitten off, protection breeds can also be provocative in other situations, taking a malinois into a house or car to do a search is more likely to attract unwanted and possibly threatening attention than cute looking springer or lab.
Still like that now mate, atleast it is in Lincs. We use Spaniels for sniffers and Germans for general purpose.
British person here. First time I’ve seen you guys and your channel.
I just wanted to say that I thoroughly enjoyed this video, and thank you for the respect you paid to our various defence forces, coming from a military family it means a lot.
I will check out the rest of your channel when I’m at home and not having to pretend to work 🤣😂
UK Tanks are always equipped with a BV, i.e. a Brewing vessel or in layman's terms a hot water boiler. That gives you hot water for tea, hot water for shaving and hot water for Ramen noodles.
They can also heat individual ration packs. They're also present in all IFVs and trucks and land rovers etc have sockets where they can be mounted as required.
And for chucking at the enemy if all else fails😂😉

@@Monkster1987 3 days was the norn mate lol
The BV (Boiling Vessel) was introduced with Centurion Mk. 1 (the first Main Battle Tank), designed during WWII but introduced just after the war. It solved a tactical issue, the tank crews were at their most vulnerable when outside their tank “brewing up” (making a meal and their tea). All British Armoured Vehicles from MBT’s to troop carriers now have a BV. The US introduced them with the M1 Abrams.
and the drops wagon had a bv
Brewing up is a most unfortunate choice of phrase when talking about tanks. 😀
@@jerribee1 Actually that's where the phrase comes from. Before BVs you used to brew up outside the tank using a home made petrol stove which, obviously, produced lots of smoke. So when a tank got hit and burst into flames and smoke, British Army humour naturally hit upon 'He's brewing up!'
Makes sense. Pretty sure one of the biggest defeats of a British tank regiment was when virtually the entire lot of tanks and supporting vehicles had their crews outside putting the kettle on, and got caught by the Germans unprepared
Actually the first MBT was Chieftain, introduced in 1966. Centurion was classed as a medium tank by the War Department. It was originally put in service with the 83mm QF main gun and uprated to the 105mm ROF gun in the sixties.
Absolutely brilliant video. Makes me proud to be British too, and very thankful that we have allies with the same values. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
I’m a Brit, and I have learned something new about our military.
Great video Ladies.
Fellow Brit here mate.
Same here!
And here 8 months later!
If you refer to yourself as a 'Brit' then you can be sure that you've moved into the realm of the Plastic English/Scoth/Welsh brigade. Just cos your mummas muma knobbed a cockney don't make you blessed to be British. Its purely accidental who wins the race
My Grandfather was in the 2nd Battallion Coldstream Guards. He fought and was wounded at The Battle of the Somme during the First World War. He made Regimental Sergeant Major (RSM) and served at Sandhurst as a PT Instructor. When he left he became a Police Officer in Northern Ireland. 4 of my uncles served with the Airborne during WW2.
As a former RAF Squadron Leader with over 45 years uniformed service behind me and at least 7 years working alongside USAF personnel can I just say thank you for your enthusiasm and respect toward my fellow UK armed forces colleagues.
The UK and US forces have worked so closely in so many arena over the years that there is a real kindred spirit between us, indeed one of my closest friends to this day is a former USAF Lt Col who was a weapons Officer in F4G ‘Wild Weasel’ Phantoms.
Thank you both.
Proud of your respect and proud of any military person prepared to lay down their lives to give us the freedom's we have .God watch over them.
Guys we have the 5th largest military in the world, there is only just over sixty million of us !
The non response from the Russian ship at the end just shows their attitude towards the rest of the world
Yeh, but it's not unusual. When the IGB was still in place we would go up to the gate and say good morning but they were not allowed to reciprocate. Crazy.
Fun fact, for me anyway, the QRA (quick reaction alert) Typhoon fighter interceptors for Southern England are based at RAF Coningsby, 8 miles from me, so when they're scrambled they come right over my house on full afterburner, car alarms go off, sonic booms...I love it! Plus my eldest son and his wife are current serving officers in the Royal Air Force.
My oldest son serves in the RAF and my youngest serves in the Ministry of Defence Civil Guard. They have made their choice to serve their country and monarch and it leaves me overwhelmed with pride they stand and do the things that most will not., namely service over self, even in the face of war and possible death. May all our servicemen/women remain safe x
There was a story told in WW2 about a Coldstream Guard who was lost in the desert. He crawled through the heat for three days and finally reached his own lines. "Water he gasped". A bottle of water was immediately given to him and he used it to start cleaning his belt.
Guys that was awesome , my father was in the Royal Air Force stationed at many place around the world and we got to see the world because of that , i even got to sit in a Phantom jet at RAF Coningsby when i was 10 yrs old , a dream for many a young child , i feel privileged to have had the connection .lots of love take care
My dad was also in the raf, 1952 4. A rigger at boscombe rown, A squadron experimental and fighter development.
His personal fighters were 2x Hunter f2, 2x meteors. An f8 and nf12..
He saw the first p1lighting fly, and the first follland midge
Like you I have sat in many a vompit, as has my sister.
i was also lucky to grow up in a RAF household we got to go to loads of places both in the UK and Abroad. the best was 3 years at RAF Scampton with the Red Arrows, my dad was a Blue Arrow assigned to Red 3 so he went to all the shows and everything the Reds did and for me my best friend was the son of the Team Manager so he showed me loads of cool things and his dad would take us up flying in his cessna.
@@brucewilliams4152 I was a Patch Brat, My Father was an armourer at Boscombe Down 68-74
My brother worked on Phantoms at Coningsby in the 70's making sure they didn't fall out of the sky too often as he puts it.
Hi ladies, RAF police dogs are deployed at Brize Norton, which is a military airfield. They're checking the bags of military personnel returning from overseas, there's no civilian traffic through Brize Norton. Ordinary airports are the responsibility of civilian police, and Customs & Excise agents.
great video. My dad trained with the tank regiment for a little while and enjoyed his time there, had lots of great stories. Yes, his boots and shoes always had high shine to them, and we were all taught how to do it correctly. Thank you for letting me look back on happy memories of my dad and his proud history in the Army. Our son is currently training in the bomb squad in the army.
You never fail to have good comments on our armed forces much respect to both of you. love you both from the brit across the pond
Amen and thankyou to all military forces God bless and keep you all xx
My husband was in the British Army, and I remember the nights that he would sit and `bully` his boots while the children watched in awe. lol
Mine too.
I spent 23 years on tanks 14 years as a tank commander and yes we have a BV boiling vessel to make tea and cook food in
Boxxers used to be an endangered breed. They got used as gaurd dogs in the second world war. People loved them, brought them home afterwards and that revived the breed.
RAF Armourer veteran here…love your enthusiasm for His Majesties armed forces.
I was RAF Bomb Disposal for 10 year's, British EOD is the best in the world having years of experience from the Northern Ireland troubles, also covered Quick Reaction Alert QRA covering the air defence of the UK, Nice to see two of my old jobs in this film. I now work for a Service Charity looking after fellow veterans.
may I say thank you to you personally being a citizen of the UK As I remember walking into any major store in London and having your bags checked for bombs! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👍It was nice to know you guys were if needed! Thankfully for me, you were not!! Take care and my mum was in the services during WWII she passed away in 2019 aged 95!
Thank you for your service Bob
Eyup Bob. Fellow “foot tapper”. Happy St. Babs
My dad served in northern Ireland (Cheshire regiment) in the 70's and early 80's. Unfortunately his sister in law was killed in the dropping well bomb in 82. I was born in Ballymena in 81 and I grew up looking under the car for bombs when we were back living in the UK on the barracks (we had had soldiers blown up in Lichfield). Thank you for your service 🙏🙏 xx
did a few years in 2para, wouldnt think twice about jumping out a plane but you wouldnt catch me doing oed, got something wrong with you lol
I must admit to knowing very little about Belgian Malinois until one day TH-cam suggested a video titled 'Belgian Malinois, Amazing Athlete!!!' Which, although short, (3mins,) really put me in awe of thia amazing breed. Literally took my breath away.
Full credit and respect to both you ladies. American Sisters. It's lovely to see the affection and love you have for each other.
Keep up the good work both of you.
Your videos are always well informed and enjoyable. Thank you for all you give xx
Very sweet of you! Thank you ❤️
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow the pleasure is mine good ladies.
Take care, and stay cosy xx
Ladies, we will never get tired of you. Debbie has just blossomed over time. Natasha has always been the stronger voice but Debbie is now pitching back.
When the war broke out in Iraq, the US consulted with the UK Army to learn how to fight street by street combat. The UK army learned this during “The Troubles” in Northern Ireland. Being Tail End Charlie could be quite harrowing. My family is rN on both sides going back generations however, one oh my uncle’s was a paratrooper. He served over broad and was based in Nicosia. He did a night drop in Wales with miuntauns and broke his leg. He stayed with us. I was a munchkin and he would sit me on the bar of the bicycle and we’d bomb around the neighbourhood. I laughed so much. It was my best summer holiday ever. My first stepfather was SAS -we never wanted to push him off. Brutal.
We also use the police at civilian airports. The training we were seeing was at RAF Brize Norton, a military airport.
Hi girls. The first royal guard was a regiment of Cromwell's army that lay down their weapons in
front of the returning King Charles II, & then picked them up again in his support becoming the
King's Guard. This was on Horse guards Parade, where trooping the colour takes place every year on the monarch's official birthday still. The colour is the flag you see being carried. Each regiment has one & the gold decorations you see on it is an embroidered name of each war battle or action that regiment has taken part in over the years, many commencing in the 17th
& 18th centuries. Occasionally new colours are needed, when there is no more room on the flag, they get worn out, units are merged & new regiments created. The colour is trooped through the ranks of soldiers so that they recognise their own & appreciate the history of the
Regiment. It is sort of sacred like the Eagles of the Roman legions of ancient days.
Great video girls. Thanks for your Respect. Cheers Dan.
@@danielferguson3784 have you seen any if the video’s of the chaos and farce that is Horse Guards these days? It’s very wearing to watch them, I end up either upset, angry or laughing my socks off but it really needs sorting out. 😱😱😱
Thanks so much for doing this video,, as you said it's so important that people understand the absolute necessity of our brave boys and girls and doggy pals. PEACE and love as always from the UK. Xx
Not only is Yorkshire, God's own county, but it's the biggest county in the UK. It's military presence is huge!
The military presence in colchester is large as well with merville barracks down the road and the majority of surrounding land belonging to the MOD such as fields and forestry
Well I guess that it has to have something to brag about being the wrong side of the Pennines! 😂😂

@@j.ksmith7432 Most certainly
I am a brit, and i also learned quite a bit today myself, and am 74,,and was just browsing, and came across you both it was really good and uplifting to see and hear your comments, thankyou
Absolutely loved this video. Another great reaction to our UK military from our favourite ladies from over the pond.
Both my sons served in the RAF..my eldest was a logistics officer at Brize Norton for 7 years and my youngest worked in computer technology over various bases..when he left he worked for the European Space Agency, transcribing satellite images into tiny data that could be used to determine damage done in natural disasters like floods or forest fires and depletion of areas like the Amazon rainforest...very proud of them both and all our military.🇬🇧 📡✈🚁🛥🌍 And yes, many tanks have tea making facilities 👍
I used to live next door to an RAF bomb squad member. He was always being called out, because we are still finding unexploded bombs that were dropped by the Germans in WW2, and sometimes sea mines too. He told me that most of those that are found aren't even reported in the news, because it is so common. When I went to Germany, I was speaking to some Germans and they have the same problem, lots of unexploded British, American and Russian bombs from WW2 still turn up.
I find it amazing that 70 odd years later, the scars of WW2 are still having an effect on our lives.
In the UK there is the PDSA Dickin Medal which is regarded as the animals' VC. Awarded 74 times since 1943. 37 of them to dogs.
And one to my grandfathers messenger pigeon!
My son drove a Challenger II for a few years before taking his turn as the loader in that very tight turret space. Being a Tankie is definitely not for anyone with claustrophobia!
Brize Norton is the RAFs main transport hub for equipment and personnel. It has a proper terminal building exactly the same as any civilian airport. I was stationed ther for 3 years.
5 years.
My school had two cadet troops, one army and one RAF. When I was 15, for reasons I don't remember or and even work out now, I joined the RAF cadets and got to go to a base for a week, fly in a Chipmunk 2-seater plane and other activities. Despite these special experiences, I quickly realised I had no interest in military lifestyle but THAT is why I am ever grateful to those who do embrace the life and make sacrifices for the rest of us.
most of us live without thinking about this stuff. The USA, Britain and Europe, through NATO must constantly communicate with each other regarding military matters. With Putin's invasion of Ukraine it has brought this to the foreground. I think ordinary folk are now much more aware of how much gratitude we owe these people.
Well said!
I was based at Brize Norton with the Auxiliary RAF Regiment. It is a functioning "Airport" for shipping troops out and in from all over the world, so there would be luggage checks on the bags of those arriving / leaving just in case.
Back in 82 my dad flew into Brize Norton after 6 months in the South Atlantic on a S.T.U.F.T. I was 11 at the time, I remember seeing him disembark from a C130 and some lady from the company he worked for met him on the tarmac and gave him a hug and kiss, well My mum who is a tiny woman was fuming, she pushed through a barrier with me in tow, there was a soldier guarding it who told mum she couldn't go through there and would have to wait, I've never seen such a scary looking guy with a gun back down so fast when mum turned on him and put him in his place, I felt sorry for him, hope it wasn't you.
@@slacko1971 Not me, and I would have backed down as well. Never stand between a wife and a husband back from deployment😁
I remember as a child on trips to the seaside we always passed the famous Golf Balls at RAF Fylingdales, for over 3 decades they were the only landmark for miles.
The "Golf balls" were ballistic early warning radar systems built during the cold war to warn of attacks from the Soviet Union, when the Iron Curtain finally fell they were sadly demolished in 1992, and a more modern station was built.
I too remember the "golf balls".
Dad was a War Department policeman (Now part of MI5) at a munitions factory in the UK. They had a direct feed rom Fylingdales to warn them of an attack. For some bizarre reason thogh, it was a 'reverse ' alarm! When it was beeping, everything was OK, it was only when it stopped it meant Ivan was coming! It was really annoying! Dad said that when the Inspector wasn't around, they would switch the bloody thing off!
Golf ball buildings are still in use at USAF Menwith Hill near Harrogate in North Yorkshire.
I absolutely love how passionate & interested you are about our country & everything in it.. x
Hi regarding the protection of R.A.F. Briize Norton airport, that you seeing on this program, its a Royal Air Force Base and they are protected by the Royal Air Force Regiment which is an elite unit and the fighting force of the R.A.F. They don’t just cover the R.A.F. Airports and are involved in many different types of operation. All the civilian airports in the UK, like the U.S.A. are protected by the police. Hope this has solved the confusion of why Brice Norton was being protected by our forces. Mike. Xx I am ex Royal Navy but my Dad was in the R.A.F and also in the R.A.F Regiment, I spent the first 14 years of my life going to one base or the other due to my Dad being posted all over and was actually born in Singapore in 1962 in R.A.F Changi Hospital, hence why I know A little about the R.A.F.
The RAF have their own police within its service. Plus, they also do check for contraband, as well as check luggage of service personnel. The RAF transport aeroplanes do have a nickname. That being 'Crab Air'. Plus, the seating arrangements are either sideways, or rear facing in their passenger aeroplanes. Not like commercial aeroplanes. It's a safety protocol.
Have served in Cyprus doing UN duties in 1985. That border is the real deal, and can be just a small wall. The one thing you cannot do, ever. Is a to take any photographs. That act along would cause an international incident.
Great video ladies. One hopes your mail has arrived safely. Greetings from Belfast, Northern Ireland.
Great stuff Ladies, another good one. You mentioned the Sentinels in the American Armed forces. I have seen a couple of videos on them and they certainly do look the part, the attention to detail on their uniform and kit is awesome and they would not look out of place at Buckingham Palace. They are a credit to your Country`s Armed Forces.
Tea Station:
Do you remember the film a bridge too far about the failed attempt to get over the Rhine? The last bridge was attacked by the Parachute Regiment using parachute and wooden gliders withe jeeps and artillery inside, well the book was just a collection of interviews with the soldiers who took part. One of these interviews told of one of the glider pilots being interrupted by one of his passengers paras with a mug of tea, he said thanks and on turning to his co-pilot he asked where the hell did he get the hot water, he was told” if you don’t want to see the water boiling fire in the back of your wooden glider don’t look”. You can’t go into an attack without a good mug of tea. Read the book you have to look out for the mug of tea, the chicken mascot as well as the umbrella.
Chin Chin
Great reaction. Proud of our armed forces. ❤
Loved this video thank you for all the hard work you do to get these videos to us all
Those dogs are just for military use at military base/air bases or on operations, the police have their own dogs for civilian air ports and police work. We do have the typical military and police dogs like the US military but we use different dogs for different jobs im surprised the US don't. As you most likely know the rule of thumb is pointy ears= guard/attack dog, floppy ears= sniffer/detection do, obviously it's not always the case but it's a good guideline with working dogs.
Speaking as a British person, I do not see the militaries as one. I do see them as complimentary and know they act in unison but they also do have some unique traditions that are central to each military's identity. Also, competition on their training is a good incentive to always compete to see who's better.
Best job I ever had when spent i 22 years in her majesty's senior service the Royal Navy, now his majesty's armed forces since the passing of our late boss. The Esprit De Corps, the friendships I made and still have, the banter 🤣. The Army and the junior service the Royal Air Force, the history, the traditions and the quaint habits the RAF call traditions, the unique bond service personnel have.. as they say those who serve know
I have watched videos of the Sentinels guarding the unknown soldier,the precision of every move is incredible. Love and respect ❤️
Love that you've seen our incredible Sentinels!!!
There's nothing unknown about them and what they do. British people do understand why it's important.
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow Proper men. I wish we had something like that in the UK.
I just love your honesty from your videos, you can tell how proud you are of being an American. But you are not blinkered by it, in a way you are opened minded to other things around you. Here in the UK are proud that UK and the USA are as one when it comes to the military.
I served with the 3rd Royal Tank Regiment back in the 80's with the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers we were responsible for all repairs and recovery of all the equipment
as an electronic tech I can honestly say when on exercise I would insure that I carried multiple repair kits for what we called a BV a boiling vessel. This had its own socket inside the tank and was used whilst on the move to heat food and boil water for tea. It was seen as a essential piece of kit mainly for moral as well as heath and well being
Yes, heaven forbid as a CET we should let the BV fail. More than our lives were worth lol.
Never get tired of both you lovely ladies,thank you as always.
My husband did 24yrs bomb disposal , it effected him deeply and he now has ptsd, I’m proud of his service as I am my dad who also served 24yrs REME , bomb disposal is a very stressful job and often they don’t make it out so I’m so very proud of my husband and grateful he was one of the lucky ones xx
I’m British and this is eye opening to me! Love how you guys rescue doggies too🥰🥰
The police generally use the sniffer dogs at civilian airports, but the RAF use the sniffer dogs at RAF Brize Norton. One of the reasons they have that kind of carousel is because all civilians can fly from RAF Brize Norton to RAF Ascension Island, connecting onto the Falkland Islands.
We are a small nation but we pack a huge punch. Always have, always will. Hope we are allies with our US cousins forever.
Well said! ❤️
The tank regiment is basically next to Stonehenge.
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow Amen to that.
we are good at protecting and fighting to help other countrys but we cant protect our own country my brother was in the army for 20 yrs and left saying its a joke in the armed service these days to many regulations also ex army guys are being sent to prison ex northern island soliders and this goverment dont try to help them and yet they send our soliders to conflicks around the world there are over 10000 soliders living on the streets the goverments just dont care and in america the problem is even worse
In my time there were 4 Royal Tank Regiments. Salisbury Plain 3 o'clock in the morning in a trench and its peeing down with rain, then you wonder that you could have been at home in a nice warm bed. But you can't beat the camaraderie of being a member of the Armed Forces. Spent 13.5 years in the Royal Armoured Corps, Armoured Recce. Thanks for your great videos.
Thank you ladies,i feel the same with the military,amazing people,I'm so proud of ours,and yours,makes me feel safe,great video
Thank you for recognising the discipline and training of our armed forces.
The Border Collie is considered the most intelligent of dogs. They're used as sheep dogs & learn many skills from the farmers whistles. They train very well, hence their use in the military & airports etc. The name derives from where they originate, the Scottish/English border. They were exported all over the globe from America to Australia. A much loved dog breed ❤🇬🇧🇺🇸
Yes as Dog Behaviorists we know about all breeds. We just don't see other breeds used with our Military
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow That's great! 👍 You will also know about the little yapping terriers we have in my England county.. Yorkshire! 😆 Scruffy looking little mutts sometimes but adorable lol. Great reaction ladies! 👍🇬🇧❤🇺🇸
And New Zealand too,wonderful farm working dogs.
Morning ladies! My Dad's an ex-Navy Chief. (Armourer) At one point, he was qualified everything from grenades to free-fall nuclear bombs.
Mum is ex- RAF. If you ever see a Lighting fighter of 74 Squadron, from the 1960's, there's a good chance she stencilled the Tiger's head squadron badge.
You might also like "Fly With RAF's Quick Reaction Alert Crews" but also love watching Americans reaction videos. Great content just been watching some of your older videos.
I think you're referring to the design philosophy behind the Challenger tank, which is to have a really big gun to protect the Army's most precious asset - the tea making device installed inside the vehicle!
Every single Armoured (and most unarmoured) vehicle in the British Army comes equipped with what's called a BV or Boiling Vessel. It's a water heater that is used for a number of things, including cooking food and, yes, making Tea.
The idea behind a soldier being so spic and span particularly boots and brass is that when you learn to take pride in your self you also learn to take pride in your regiment, your branch of service, and the country
If you visit UK, RAF Neatishead has a radar museum, its in Norfolk, well worth a visit. A shout out to all personnel from RAF Coltishall.
I miss Coltishall. It was such a good Station.
I am from UK and I want to say armed forces who serves and protect our British security and intelligence: thank you for incredible work.
Thanks guys sorry gals, you are right the military of the world serves more than war, there prime role is peace. Respect to them all, I would not have the faith in myself to complete their jobs. I saludo, saluer, salute you. JC. Yorkshire UK
My brother was in air force and he has flown the tycoons he was a pilot officer and graduated in cramwell. He used to patroll and stop any enemy. Coming to our air space. He is not in air force any more but still has a job that's really stressful he still fly,s to keep his air miles he takes his son up in the plane too he loved it. My brother even trained to fly commercial but he did not do it. .
What a great birthday present, a new video from Natasha and Debbie! Thank you for making my day.
Happy birthday. I’ve only just found them they are brilliant creators.
Great video really enjoyed it, i was in the royal scots regiment for 10 years but i had leave for medical reasons, keep up the good work on your videos lady's ❤️
Excellent ladies, well done! As an ex-serviceman myself, having done almost 13 years in the RAF (1965-1977) I certainly appreciate your respect for the armed forces of our two countries, and recognition of the amazing and all-too-often unsung and unseen work that they do on a daily basis........
Thank you ladies.
Another great video guys, so much we take for granted. Maybe worth you guys checking out the RAF quick reaction alert video. Would like to see your reaction to that. Also yes well done Natasha for your live the other day and for the mention when I said we are with you. It's not easy to admit to addiction but you brought us all together. Well done and keep the videos coming girls. Jon (wales) xx
Hi guys another interesting and informative video. Another hi from whitby, RAF Fylingdales is situated around 10 miles outside of whitby, it's quite a sight as you drive over the north Yorkshire moors stunning scenery.
Thankyou Natasha and Debbie for a VERY INFORMATIVE AND INTERESTING VIDEO.
Yorkshire U.K
Thanks Ladies, I really appreciate what you post. Hapless reporter, "Where does this tank operate?" Tank Commander, "It goes where it wants." Thank you for your service. Martin
Yorkshire was the largest county in England, covering most of the North East of England from the middle of the Pennines east, and north of the River Humber and the Peak District. It’s now been split into numerous counties and authorities. It has flat, coastal plains in the East, perfect for WWII Bombers, to craggy, rocky hills and low mountains which are excellent for infantry training.
I believe you will find that as far as Yorkshire folk are concerned, we still are the largest county - north, south, east, west makes no difference to us.
@@jeanettedemosthenous2685 true, my Dad was born in Keighley in 1940, and refused to say he was from West Yorkshire, he was from t’ West Ridin’.
The Guards also are front line infantry when not on guard
God Bless each of you!
Our Militaries together are unstoppable and this fills us with pride as much as it will you.
Just a small fact about the challenger 2 tank, which is due to be replaced by the challenger 3 in the mid 2020's. During the war in Iraq, a Challenger 2 was subjected to over 30 direct hits from hand held anti tank weapons, there were no casualties and the tank was still operational. To date a Challenger tank has never been destroyed by enemy fire and only once by friendly fire, with no casualties recorded. Great video, so nice to see mutual support from across the Atlantic, we are truly better together. It makes a nice change from being lambasted about a colonial past that had nothing to do with present day Brits, by people that clearly know nothing about the history of the British Empire. keep these videos coming, they're great.
Great choice and a fab video, that Forces TV does some great behind the scenes stuff. I've actually visited RAF Fylingdales, fascinating place and I believe it's still not marked on OS maps either, it's way out there on the moors which in itself is very pretty. Thanks again for highlighting the unsung heroes x
I feel like other comments have mentioned this before but if you enjoy the British military, please watch Jeremy Clarkson's Greatest raid of all video, and any other British special forces videos like the SAS, SBS ect. Then maybe even some Top Gear lol. You two are the best react channel, keep it up
100%
My husband was in the army - now retired. Sunday afternoons when he wasn't on duty were spent bulling his boots (he used to use my old tights to protect them) 😅
I'm a British military veteran of 1 Royal Tank Regiment, the Royal Tank Regiment is the world's first Tank Regiment dating back to World War I, in 1917 and the first effective Tank use in combat was at Cambrai on Nov, 11, 1917 and to this day is the Regimental day of the Regiment where we get "gunfire tea" tea laced with brandy, served to the men at 6.20am by sergeants and above to corporals and below.
I served 16 yrs in the Royal Tank Regiment and will always be proud to have served in the world's first Tank Regiment and the UK's first (1 RTR) Royal Tank Regiment.
Thank you for your service 🙏🏻
@The Natasha & Debbie Show I'm always unsure what to say when people thank me for my service. That said, thank you for your thanks.
Reading my comment back I noticed a mistake. I've put my son's birthday and not Cambrai Day my son shares his birthday with Armistice Day Nov, 11, the regimental Day is Nov, 20. And the regiment is only 1 of 2 British Regiments to have two remembrance days first is shared with the world on the closest Sunday to Nov, 11 and the private regimental Remembrance Day is the closest Sunday to Nov, 20 (a week later so all told Nov is a very busy month for me). I apologise for my error.
The Battle of Cambrai was on Nov, 20, 1917 not 11 as I initially stated.
The Challenger tanks have a tea-making capacity. Why would they not?
Don't forget the other 60-odd million who would defend our islands.
And don't leave out the Entire American Military who would and have! 🇺🇸❤️🇬🇧
As has already been mentioned, tea is very important, at sea, ashore, and across all the services. When I was a midshipman at Britannia Royal Naval College, Dartmouth, during our PLX (Practical Leadership Exercise) on Dartmoor, completing the assigned leadership tasks was, of course, important, but making sure that someone was detailed to put a brew on was not insignificant. A warm drink and the momentary pause to have it was good for morale and part of the three overlapping circles (Task - Team - Individual ) that we had to keep in mind. Well done on your videos.
I have the utmost respect for our amazing armed forces! My dad was in the Royal Artillery and spent his entire military career in West Germany, patrolling the East German Soviet border! Soo proud of him and all are serving and past personnel!! 🇬🇧💪
A great tribute to the armed forces of the UK. To clear one thing up with the canines they are not routinely deployed to civilian airports as HMRC(Customs) have their own dogs and handlers. When I worked at Heathrow the army did take part in exercises but they had to be escorted by armed Heathrow police around the airport. And when I worked up in Yorkshire, I lived in Catterick Garrison, the biggest Garrison town in Europe. All of the barracks are named after famous battles and Vimy Barracks is the ITC barracks (Infantry Training College). Much respect for you both and your military families.
Yes, the boiling water makers in armoured vehicles is true. Can't fight in wars without a tea on tap.
I love you two, unlike a lot of other Americans I have met your so open minded, and want to learn about the country I call home. I love seeing how excited you got over the narrow boat, and how surprised over The Game of Rugby and now our armed force. Much love xx
Yes it's true. That tanks do have tea making facilities on board. As they found out a lot men got killed when they got out to take a break
The first one with the fishing is what your Coast Guard does around the US coast.
Yep!
Great video. It’s so reassuring to know our military works so hard to protect us. I think most Brits see you guys over the pond as our cousins. I know I do. I watched England play USA in the World Cup recently and although I was cheering England on, I thought it was fitting that it was a draw.
"The Cousins" is exactly the terminology the British Intelligence use for the CIA. It is simultaneously affectionate and a bit jealous of the cousins' much larger budget.
