I was in Croatian army and had honor to get trained by Former SAS officers. It Was 1999-2000.It was 4 months of hardest and best Part of my life. Back then i was 20 years old and did not know what SAS is,after few weeks our comanders explained us who this guys are. After 4 months of hell we had 2 weeks intensive combat drils, no sleep, little food, so we were 24 hours with this guys. They were 45 years or older but compere to us They were on another level, exelent Leaders and soliders. Sorry my english is not perfect.
Did Bob pass away with bravo 2,,,0. Andy McNabb has a lot to answer for,, so has Chris,, they both lied about the rest of the team while they went on to make alot of money from the books and flims they made,,,, Bob is a HERO,,
Michael Asher’s account is completely out of line with what Bravo two zero experienced on those days in northern Iraq. The Iraqi tribe who witnessed the patrol happened to stumbled across them after the initial firefight. The match-up to Mcnabs timeline does not add up, so Asher would not have a damn clue what the patrol actually witness. I believe they did endure an Iraqi assault and manage to maneuver their way closer to the border. Will I say all of what was said is true? Of course not. But from what was been said and shown, I believe it happened.
SM, never went in there to get people killed, he made a call, got it wrong. Bravo 1 didn't deploy at all, and wrongfully faced flak. Des Powell gives a great account on it.
i served with the RAF Regiment based at Salalah early 70's. We met quite a few of the bravest men ever to walk the planet, coming away with the Dhofar bar ... i salute each and every one who served there.
And for those that don't know and who wouldnt think so ,one of the nine men who served in the SAS in Oman ,came from the catering corp,so yes he was a cook but a hard ass cook who passed SAS selection and made sure the lads ate well.
Man...I watched the other 2 episodes months and months ago, Iranian embassy and the Gulf war. And now you've uploaded 3 more in the last week, cant thank you enough the quality of these shows is amazing
Would you believe Sek Takevesi is still active now, currently in Africa doing the business. He a hell of a lump but a nicer man you could not meet. Thanks for the upload, excellently done and very realistic I should imagine.
@@danielmichaels1505 I’m readin. Just know living here in Hereford . Mums best mate husband Steve is a Staff Sargent of B Squadron and I just hear these things. Don’t think I’m betraying opsec by saying anything out of order. Yh just hear thing’s.
Thank you so much for uploading these great videos. I remember watching these when originally released on TV back in 96 and although I do own the box set myself on VHS I don't have a player anymore to enjoy them. Why Carlton haven't released them on a digital platform is beyond me as these 25 year old documentaries are by far the best ever produced and I would consider them a jewel in the crown of any military documentary. Hard hitting, fast paced, realistic and classic. For anyone reading this comment I strongly advise you to read the book by Jack Ramsay which accompanies this series as I promise you it will blow your mind.
@@vhsreclaimed1998 It's very much appreciated that you have taken the time and effort to do that for us. Even if I had a VCR player I'd be in two minds as to how the tapes would hold up after such a long time sat on a shelf and although likely never to be played again I still cherish them. It's good to know they're here for anyone to watch and learn from as and when they please.
@@vhsreclaimed1998 You won't regret it and it'll be worth every penny. I won't say what it is unless you already know, but there's a chapter in the book that's not featured in the videos. A chapter that shows a side to the SAS people don't think about too often. Enjoy and let me know what you think.
I visited Mirbat a couple of years ago to pay my respects to Sergeant Labalaba and Trooper Tobin. The village is a pile of ruins now but you can see how the battle played out.
Of course it was a job well done. Some of you may not have got medals or Mentions In Dispatches but you got something much more precious than that. You got to know that there are people in this world who would look death in the eye and still stand shoulder to shoulder with you, that they would die for you as you would for them. You got to make a difference. No one can take that from you. Worth more than any medal, some people will live a whole life without finding even a true friend, you have been much more fortunate than that. Thank you for your service.
Something to think about. Maybe one does not want to be SAS because you're afraid of losing your friends that you get, but if you never go SAS, you'll never get that kind of friendship..
Found 2 books in a local charity chop by Rowland White and Peter Ratcliffe DCM. Both are there in these videos, obviously disguised. The book by Ratcliffe is very informative and sheds light on other characters autobiographies. Thanks for digitizing the tapes. They help give another perspective. It's good to know Fiji has statue erected in Laba's memory
I bought this VHS box set and accompanying compilation cassette when I lived in Australia. To this day I can't remember how I knew about their release. But I'm glad I bought them. It's a shame they haven't been released on DVD in the same kind of box art. I still have my VHS box sets
Since you have VHS era SAS docs, I was wondering do you or anyone else have one about Paddy Mayne? There's a series or two on YT but there were 2 clips from something similar where he described them and their ambushes as being like pirates. It was a great clip but they were removed after the channel uploader deleted their channel. There's also a collection called SAS - Special Air Service collection - TheMuss - it was a 17gb collection I lost as well.
SAS is the worst nightmare of the enemy. In Oman it was with out a doubt A Job Well Done, even without any recognition. That is how SAS operates it is with Excellence.
@@robinpowell4007Talking shite mate both the SAS and SBS do the same selection process and after passing that them that are deemed worthy enough to be selected move on to specialise in whatever the SAS or SBS are better known. I.E the SAS going behind enemy lines usually done by HALO parachute drop or hostage situations and the SBS resolving hostage situations at sea or using amphibious ways of getting behind enemy lines. Members of the SAS usually come from the Paras or Royal Signals and the SBS usually the Royal Marines. They’re both as good as well trained and well thought of as each other.
I don't think that was John McAleese, John was quite slimmer than him and the face shape is different, either another soldier with that tash that was popular with the unit back then (although it's a little 'Blue Oyster' for me lol, or maybe his twin brother Billy, who wouldn't have done the intense training and maybe had more weight to him, but this is less likely I think. I thought it was him at first too but have a look closer and all the sharpe angles of John's face aren't there. That's my humble opinion.
@@Sebadee80it was him mate, this full series has quite a few of them in it, especially the operation nimrod one, johnny mac and rusty are both in that with a few others
In my opinion and had the opportunity to be trained under commandos originally trained by the SAS in Sri Lanka way back in 1983, the SAS are the best. No hype, bells and whistles like in the US the SAS get on with their job at hand and do it well. Love their low profile and anonymity and that's how it should be.

I had the opportunity to be trained by the SAS in Cumbernauld back in 1967. We were tasked with “spoofing” the Soviet intelligence into wrongly believing that the Town Centre was an important nuclear weapons silo. Sadly we were infiltrated by a roving battalion of communist revolutionaries and were drawn into a 14 day long battle where we lost 18 men before we could perform an active exfiltration. Afterwards I was given the military medal and thanked personally by the Queen, Rupert Murdoch and George H W Bush. My next mission was to rescue a British Executive who was being held in a hotel room in Las Vegas by 3 prostitutes. I used a depth charge followed by a flash bang then I ran for it while sharting in the hookers faces and we also used an electro magnetic stun device on the prostitutes then gave the English executive Valium to calm him before getting him on an RAF Chinook hovering by the window. This time I was personally thanked by Margaret and Dennis Thatcher before going to see the Queen for tea and medals. I grew a Mexican style moustache to look like my hero from the SAS John “Mac” Macaleese. A particularly effective technique to question suspects that was used by special forces was to give them Psilocybin then shine disco lights in there faces. I posted a similar story on Reddit and Ant Middleton is actively seeking my location.
The guy's in this last documentary are hero's and should have been recognized as hero's, not ignored just because it was a secret mission, those guy's put there life on the line for the greater good. I HAVE AN UNDYING RESPECT FOR THE SAS AND ALL BRITISH SOLDIERS THEY ARE ALL HERO'S AND SHOULD BE TREATED AND RESPECTED ACORDINGLY ❤
They were sent into a desert environment without even proper gloves?,that's disgraceful,I can fully sympathise with the trooper who spoke about the effects of onset hypothermia in his fingers,the most painful aspect is not the actual frosbite,but when the circulation eventually returns to the affected areas.
was that first part D-Squadron? I don't think it was Bravo Three Zero story which were B-Squadron and the only Bravo unit to use vehicles. I know D Squadron were operating out at the same time as the Bravo teams. I think Mitchell should have took is Bravo Two Zero team back on the helicopter like Bravo One Zero did, lives would have been saved.
Those blokes are special, that's why they're selected. Imagine being in the thick of a battle like that, watching your mates get wounded and killed with horrible injuries. And then doing it all again. They've been there, seen it and done it, that's why they get pissed off with walts and bluffers. And no matter how hard a man is he's still just a man with human reactions and feelings.
The battle of Mirbat gets my adrenaline up every time I watch this video, very powerful and moving, the sacrifice they made for each other and their skills as professional soldiers is inspiring.
سالت احد المحليين الذي كان من المدافعين عن مرباط قال شجاعة sas نادرة لكنهم يرتكبون الاخطاء بعد الحرب حيث لايعترفون بالمحاربين المدنيين من اهالي مرباط الذين ساندوهم
The SAS still do training in Oman and the RAF are there also, both are very discreet. The Sultan of Oman has a lot of time for the Brits for helping him and developing his country.
The Tour of Oman (we can thank these SAS men for that). I would like to ask them though, if given the choice, would they do it again, considering not being recognized from their own country. Seems a steep price to pay.
@@ryand141 The SAS are a special breed of men, never ask question to what the have to do, they just go and do it. Hereford where their base where somethings happen on that base we never hear about and they are not bothered about recognised, medals or being heroes, its their job and they love one another, they are elite
@@turbine6338 I know they're probably not bothered about medals but some soldiers received medals in Mirbat when others didn't. Like wtf. Why? Makes no sense. The guy gets his face shot off.
Seems to have forgotten the part where the Officer in charge was relieved of command and sent back on the helicopter which had onboard the RSM as his replacement.
The firefight at the microwave building was started by Graham, an officer on temporary posting who was later told to get his ass on the chopper back to Saudi. He acted like a passenger and was dead weight the whole trip.
I’ve waited a long time to see this again so thank you for uploading this. Probably a long shot but does anyone know the acoustic guitar harmonica tune at 30:27 ?
Ive been to the middle east and it is without doubt the most barren, featureless and ugly landscape on Earth, only equalled by the medieval ideology, culture and unremittingly dull and empty existence. don't be fooled by a few gawdy cities...scratch beneath the surface and it is a dystopian nightmare.
Fijian's, Like the Gurkhas, are fine and courageous warrior's. The successor to my old Mob has a group of them in it, who've proved their value more than once.
As I watch a few SAS stories it’s amazing how much weather fucks things up. A simple thing like wrong clothing can jeopardise an entire mission. Sorry chaps but that is bad planning.
Are S. A. S. Is still the best in the world.. that all SF" AROUND THE WORLD LOOK UP2!!! AN WAS WERE DELTA FORCE CAME FROM!! Best lads are the REG! How iknow this ?? Thats cos i served an served in British SF! This lad is Yorky!! Talking about gulfwar in 91" an his patroll getting bumped" i was in that patrol with him!!! Bravo 2 zero wasn't the only one in the gulfwar!! R call sig was bravo 3 zero the other was bravo one zero! This was my op!! Bk then . Respect to u all brother!!
I just can't, for the life of me, understand how an elite unit can get it so wrong as regards choosing the correct clothing for the operation. They originated in the deserts of North Africa during the second world war and if anybody should know just how cold it gets, it should be the SAS. It just smacks of piss poor planning and incompetence on someone's part in my view.
Who is the sas lad in the black outfit? He’s in a lot of the videos . Iranian embassy , Falkland’s and this. Obviously won’t know his real name but does anyone know his code name? He needs a film done on him
Went from wow even THE tier ones bich about weather and clothing (filmmaker could have summer up in 30 seconds).to realest deal rolling a jeep of dead enemy into a gully and, not just burning it, to throwing two antitank mines and professionally blowing it up. No rules. Not that similar incidents happened during the GWOT ... But, have to think if they took the gloves off of a good portion of SOF, let them do their thing while conventional units literally hold down the fort, might might might have had different outcomes. As the cliche says no rules in love and war. These dudes had close to carte blanche. That's how you win a fight.
**VETERAN SCOTS GUARDS**WE PREFERED THE ARMALITE ASSAULT RIFLE RATHER THAN THE 7-62 SLR..FN..THE AMMO WAS SMALLER AND LIGHTER AND WE COULD CARRY MORE AMMO..THE SAS, PREFER THE ARMALITE ALSO..fantastic WEAPON..
The beginning of this patrols campaign in the gulf was a disaster there commander had to put on the helicopter and be replaced by the rsm its strange none of this is mentioned in the video. There are countless books on this patrol none of which tell the same story i suggest reading peter Ratcliffes book eye of the storm which most consider to be the most accurate account of this patrols terrible start to the gulf campaign up to them coming out of the dessert
Typical; heroes led by donkey's, and it doesn't matter which party is in power they don't give a toss about the the soldiers on the ground , your just cannon fodder to them , the only one you can depend on is your mate lying next to you

I had the opportunity to be trained by the SAS in Cumbernauld back in 1967. We were tasked with “spoofing” the Soviet intelligence into wrongly believing that the Town Centre was an important nuclear weapons silo.

Hi. What device did you use for this? The one I bought intended for old family videos didn't work.
22.04 That is not SAS. A magazine into one enemy??
Fijian's, Like the Gurkhas, are fine and courageous warrior's. The successor to my old Mob has a group of them in it, who've proved their value more than once.
🙏 thank you
Long live you legends SAS.
The regiment is really the best which this world ever seen
As I watch a few SAS stories it’s amazing how much weather fucks things up. A simple thing like wrong clothing can jeopardise an entire mission. Sorry chaps but that is bad planning.
I remember the music on the mirbat one being completely different...wierd
Yeah I remember Sweet Home Alabama being played when it was on TV at the time. I guess later they didn't get the rights when it went onto VHS.
Yes the music was very different. Remember this track being played originally.

Story of Oman, Elite Killers movie has made from.
Was very disappointed with that movie. Didn’t seem to relate at all.
The Feather men. By Ranulph Fiennes
18.07 - Any1 know whose voice this is narrating?
Pete "Snapper" Winner. Ex B,Squadron.
@@shaundavenport621 thank you
I just can't, for the life of me, understand how an elite unit can get it so wrong as regards choosing the correct clothing for the operation. They originated in the deserts of North Africa during the second world war and if anybody should know just how cold it gets, it should be the SAS. It just smacks of piss poor planning and incompetence on someone's part in my view.
I'm sure they were told it would be like spring weather in the UK which is why they didn't take any of the warmer gear with them
Epic👍👏👏👏
I was out there 1999-2000
Who is the sas lad in the black outfit? He’s in a lot of the videos . Iranian embassy , Falkland’s and this. Obviously won’t know his real name but does anyone know his code name? He needs a film done on him
Pete winner. Look up "soldier I"
Tak and Laba . Respected name in Fiji
31:35
Iranian 💪🏽🇮🇷🇬🇧
I wish Iron Maiden do a music about SAS in Oman
There's no such thing as bad weather, only bad kit
Went from wow even THE tier ones bich about weather and clothing (filmmaker could have summer up in 30 seconds).to realest deal rolling a jeep of dead enemy into a gully and, not just burning it, to throwing two antitank mines and professionally blowing it up. No rules.
Not that similar incidents happened during the GWOT ... But, have to think if they took the gloves off of a good portion of SOF, let them do their thing while conventional units literally hold down the fort, might might might have had different outcomes. As the cliche says no rules in love and war. These dudes had close to carte blanche. That's how you win a fight.
top guy
Does anyone know the name of the soldier talking about the battle of Mirbat?
Pete winner
**VETERAN SCOTS GUARDS**WE PREFERED THE ARMALITE ASSAULT RIFLE RATHER THAN THE 7-62 SLR..FN..THE AMMO WAS SMALLER AND LIGHTER AND WE COULD CARRY MORE AMMO..THE SAS, PREFER THE ARMALITE ALSO..fantastic WEAPON..
Soldier I, and his 18 years.
The beginning of this patrols campaign in the gulf was a disaster there commander had to put on the helicopter and be replaced by the rsm its strange none of this is mentioned in the video.
There are countless books on this patrol none of which tell the same story i suggest reading peter Ratcliffes book eye of the storm which most consider to be the most accurate account of this patrols terrible start to the gulf campaign up to them coming out of the dessert
The shirtless guy shootin off the mortars, is that Chuck Norris?
SBS is the same. Nothing gets released
SBS never used to get jobs up until the Iraq war and Afghan war
They didn't get involved until the Falklands war than Iraq and Afghanistan.
SAS ia the BEST....BrAVo
Is this c Ryan narrating the video or basically the one telling the stories
There’s myth surrounding the battle of Mirbat that the SAS were on their own which wasn’t true.
Yorkie!!!!
Intelligence not so
Common Sense Better
SAS the Best
That’s what everything is in life common sense
Them little cuts on your fingers kill, then and cracked chapped lips Ohh and tooth ache I’d be fit for nothing 😞.
Why is rusty wearing a mask? He’s all over the internet. And he needs to stop making up drug names
I don't think he was all over the internet in the 90's, lol
Who Dares Wins

mate lying next to you

It would be good to be in the army but the thing is that British army just for terrorising other countries and that is dangerous
