Turkey is the most ready country in the world for one-on-one war experience. At least 8 million people have clashed with terrorism in the country since 1984. Real conflict in the mountains is not like in the movies. No training protects you in real conflict. You can't win if you don't know how to embrace death.

The first rule of success in conflict is to forget this world and do what you need to do calmly by embracing dying. War is not a PC game.
Combined Operations patch. 148 is the only unit to continue wearing it from that period to the present day, because it’s alway been a Combined Operations (arms) unit
The royal marines no longer field their own artillery. We rely on the army with soldiers going through a commando course to join '29 commando royal artillery'. That unit falls under the bigger 3 commando brigade. Which is predominantly royal marines.
From what I can tell from the AACC's more looking for grabbing guys from support arms to help beef up specialist roles. Electronic Warfare from 14 Sigs for 30IX, The Artillery and Engineers for the two army commando regiments, INT corp for 30IX as well. At least that's what the target for it looks from how the AACC only seems to advertise in these corps.
All arm commando course is for Army and and other forces who need to be attached to the RM's. I'm not sure if it still is but it was and 11 week course. basically infantry skills, BFT (not sure if its called that anymore) and then onto the Commando phase of training.
@@spielbergo74you don’t get attached to the Marines. A Army, Navy or RAF guy needs to pass AAC to get into a Commando unit. 29 Commando is a Army regiment full of Army commandos. You see?

And the 105mm Light Guns and AA troop? Have they gone?
105's still very much a part of the Regiment 👍 and 23 bty also.
Looks great. Really well produced. Sorry, if I am being stupid but I dont understand what 29 commando is. Can someone explain. Are they RM?
The royal marines no longer field their own artillery. We rely on the army with soldiers going through a commando course to join '29 commando royal artillery'. That unit falls under the bigger 3 commando brigade. Which is predominantly royal marines.
Awesome!
Respect
I was 289 East Ham in the Early 90s
I see where Australian Army got the inspo for theirs now
So the RM have figured out how to do recruiting...US Army start taking notes
This ain’t RM mate
real tough guys
Yeah try and Ali it up but they’re still remfs and still drop shorts.
If you say so.
@@gay_commando1611 I do say so plus why they doing room clearance drills, shouldn’t they be manning a cannon?
@@daniel197511 well clearly not remfs then are they?
Where's the bit where you spend most your time in a porta loo bashing one out? Waiting for end ex to be called ?
Are the Royal Marines becoming a special operations force?
Special Operations Capable Force
No. First of all, this is a army regiment not marines. Second, don’t confuse specialized tasks (like forward observers) with Special Forces.
Bad ass video.
Anyone know why the Royal Marines use M4's and The Army still use SA80's?
@BossmanFromEnds Thanks
@Grant and the marines in 148 (and probably some other specialized units in 3 CDO)
All members of 3 Commando Brigade use the Colt now.
You see here Army guys wearing Colts, so…
If an infantry man did the AACC how does that work like
Just join the marines
@@lachlanchester8142 I can't deffered medically from marines but not army
From what I can tell from the AACC's more looking for grabbing guys from support arms to help beef up specialist roles. Electronic Warfare from 14 Sigs for 30IX, The Artillery and Engineers for the two army commando regiments, INT corp for 30IX as well. At least that's what the target for it looks from how the AACC only seems to advertise in these corps.
All arm commando course is for Army and and other forces who need to be attached to the RM's. I'm not sure if it still is but it was and 11 week course. basically infantry skills, BFT (not sure if its called that anymore) and then onto the Commando phase of training.
@@spielbergo74you don’t get attached to the Marines. A Army, Navy or RAF guy needs to pass AAC to get into a Commando unit. 29 Commando is a Army regiment full of Army commandos. You see?
Is there anyone I can contact regarding this video?
Sam Hopkins and his ears 👂
@@diabeetus5052 Decent bit of PERSEC that
