Admittedly the real difference from back then and compared to RAF drill corporals of today is a whole less load of swearing, they're still absolute terrors if you get on the wrong side of 'em!
It's funny how 1) People are so upset about how they had scoff 2) People think the Cpl's are actually mean. This is nothing. It's so watered down it's unreal, today's Infantryman training at ITC Catterick put's this in the shade, things like what happened at Scoff happen A LOT, and you'd NEVER even DREAM of talking to the NCO's like the lads do in this. It's TV yes but don't think this is harsh, it isn't.
I was trained in the Red Triangle Shotokan Karate my teacher is Andy Sherry I reached 3 Dan Black belt and I trained from when I was 4 years old so I'm 39 now and I still train in karate.
@helraiser666painkil Urm, if you watched it from the beggining of the Episodes you would of heard that they were told on how to act like Corporals from the 50's. That's how a corporal would of acted back then. The reason they act like that is so that they can get disiplin into the recruits and make them understand what it was like. Without all their shouting and forcing the recruits would be slacking and disorganised.
@laa2009 sanford just didn't really have a grip on the reality of it when he signed up. everyone's degraded and treated like an animal in the army... they need to be to harden them up. it's obviously not as tough as the actual army... i can't imagine being in the army -.-
People what I've wrote is perfectally reasonable and the truth as well those two are PONCES simple as that I've actually met that RSM Ritchard Niocos back when I was in 1 Para and I didn't paticually like him not a plesant man to be around eather. Stephen Ex 1para {L-cpl {Special Forces}
That's well out of order what they've done and feeding the platoon like pigs is disgusting and the corporals are well out of order treating everybody like that I don't care if Nyocos reads this that guy seriously needs to grow up even if he is a ex RSM person I've met better RSM's than him he just thinks he's god of the camp and so Dores Murray as well they so much need to grow up and act mature instead of being pure idiotos all the time that's what I think and I don't give a fuck if nyokos or Murray read this because there a couple of poncey ex sageant majors simple as that really OK that's all that I want to say for now because I'm getting angry sorry folks.
@@helraiser666painkil I'll bet if nauyokss came across you he'd have a word or two with you. Especially since you called him poncey. I'd be willing to bet you wouldn't say it to his face.
@@Gabriel-mh5ln I would say it to his face I know how to deal with a sergeant major because I've been in the TA for 6 years back in 98 when I was 19 and I understand and know how the system works and I've delt with a CSM before so I've been through some serious shit like those two in this and now I suffer from PTSD say no more just leave it at that if you don't mind.
I've come back to watch 10 years later ✌️🇬🇧

The Senior NCOs at ATR Grantham are brutal too.

A lot LESS Swearing?!
And ONLY IF you get on the wrong side of 'em?!
I would say the only real difference is the Uniforms!
@topbluffa1 Curious, what do you do for a living?
@PoppingSanta lol yes 50's army.
@topbluffa1
Ah right, but yeah I know whatcha mean.
I think they could've been joking around, but who knows!
@helraiser666painkil to be honest they are something special being ex sergeant majors....
