Check out my newest Army tips video guys, make sure you share and like it so others can see! Appreciate the support
YES MATE!!! U SUPPORT MANCHESTER UNITED!!! :D :D
Correct me if i'm wrong, but in phase 1 training don't you go into a chamber and have to take off your gas mask, state you name, rank, regiment you want to join whilst there is custom tear gas in the chamber? thanks
Legendary gamer yes you do it's awful, you do it at about 6-8 weeks before pass out
One of the only things i'm nervous for when i do it ahha
Brown Label Nutrition thank you for being smart and putting a Manchester United poster up.
nice to see a brit soldier doing YT
thanks man, appreciate it
Brown Label Nutrition what rank are you
you are a total 100% credit young man.I joined the '''green''' in 1981. Did the full 22 , & then some [L.E.O.] ( Aldershot) in those days, For the most part.... Best thing I ever did with my life.
Daniel Gurung He's a private
O yeah yeah
Well done fella! The British Army...the most resilient force in the world. It's their guts, determination and skill that the rest of the world holds in such high esteem.
El Guapo thanks mate, means a lot!
Only just found out you joined the forces man, proud of you mate. Glad to see someone from the hometown has made something of themselves, keep it up.
What's wrong with your town?
Apple Bee do you live in Britain?
Smh.
Russell Heaton not really he’s gonna die
He quit the army so how’s he gonna die 🤔
Currently applying to the reserves,
The minute speech may or may not be a thing there, but if it is it's going to be nerve racking.
The people on here saying it's put them off.. it's one speech.
The British army is one of the best ways to develop as a person, if a speech puts you off, push yourself through it.
You're stronger than you think!
I joined cadets to boost my confidence and it worked as shouting words of command on the field wearing the same uniform so to anyone want to boost there confidence in the army join cadets its fun and life time experiences
How many Kilometres I need to run during the training I'm curious bro ??
@@3arbiii897 I'm going into my fourth week of basic training you need to aim for 2k in 10:30 and you'll do fine
Well said
@@NUFC975 Ah nice! I'll take it you're using your phone? What are the rules surrounding phones during Phase 1?
I'm training to join, and I haven't even applied yet, to be clear.
Thanks for serving our country you have my respect and the respect of others.
I’m 15 and from Scotland, and I’ve been thinking about joining the army to serve as either infantry or corps driver, and this video was really helpful and inspired me lots :) all the men in my dad’s family served as infantry in the army, so it would also be really nice to keep that in the family :)
i’m joining the infantry as well
Do it. You’ll probably regret it later in life if you don’t. I regret not joining the Navy.
"you get your beret... its basically a HAT...."
good channel though, good to hear an unbiast view from the inside.
Thanks mate, appreciate it!
Or a '''LID''' as some regts call it.
it's a beret!
research why it's called a beret before calling it an hat
YALNEVA TEKOFREEDOM exactly! Hats wear those ones.
Because he is a HAT
Respect from your highland brothers 🏴🇬🇧
🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧
Sadly my health (Crohn's Disease and Asthma) meant that I was never able to join the forces. Absolute respect to you, and all the best in your career! Your videos are a fascinating insight into life in the British Army.
I got asthma
@@Psalm_23 and?
Thanks for the support of the country 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I spent nearly 3 years in forced conscription in South Africa a long while back and as much as it was tough; I believe it changed me for the better.
I love your work and your attitude.
❤
Respect to you man. You're doing the us all a great service. I hope to join the British Army someday.
I remember my phase 1 in 2013 hearing you go through everything just brought back all the cool memories, nice one bro
Bro I’ve been thinking about joining for so long and be so sceptical of it. I live on my own right now and with the cost of living rising it only encourages me more to go and chase this path man. I see next to no Cons except being away from family and friends. Thanks for the video man I know you made this 6 years ago but it’s helped me
This is really interesting- and extremely helpful. I really like the sound of joining the British military, despite the fact it looks hard ;; well done for serving your country though 💕
my Grandad was a desert rat, big respect to you mate
Nice, thanks bro!
What’s a desert rat?
My Grandad also. Served in North Africa (obviously) then moved up Italy in '43.
My Grandad was a Desert Rat too!
Craydoug like special forces or something but smaller, but still one of the best out there
at the moment I'm 12 and when I turn 13 I'm joining air cadets,I'm starting the gym soon, I'm doing press ups and sit ups every night, I'm going to try walk home instead of get the bus and go for a walk or bikeride every day , I'm going to make sure I eat healthy and I'm going to work hard at school and get good GCSE'S and then I'm joining the army, no one thinks I can do it just because I'm a girl and I'm quite small and I'm a nerd but I love the army so I'm going to do it.....well I hope I can help me!!!
oh and ignore my profile pic I do not want to be a flight aggendant anymore I'm just not allowed to change it lol!
u wanna join the army join the army cadets not the air cadets. air cadets is for the raf youngsters.
pocahontas and my dreams hope you do really well, I also hope to join the army when I'm older
Kaleb Plant oh that's cool!
I've been an air cadet for nearly 8 months and have been flying once
Seeing a Jerboa patch after looking back at photos of relatives from WW2 is certainly remarkable, Thanks for your service and the helpful information
This will be something you will cherish in later years. Serving your countries military is a honorable thing - don't let anyone else tell you different.
Desert Rats represent. Subbed just for the red rat ;-) great channel mate keep it up.
Matsimus Gaming hello you mong
Calumceltic88 hello lol
I swear, every vid I click on you're here :)
Matsimus Gaming fancy seeing you around here
Thanks bro!
Thank you for this. I'm 14 and i'm planning to join the army as a technician when i finish college. :)
*God Bless you, Sir, thank you for providing us with this info in a nice, casual manner.*
*I feel the need to join, I need to be a part of something bigger than myself, and all these videos like this help tremendously. And, of course, thank you endlessly for your service, Sir.*
Nice to see a video saying good things about the BRITISH ARMY. Thankyou young man you do US PROUD.🇬🇧😄🇬🇧✌💂♂️🇬🇧🍺🇬🇧🌹
basic was my favourite bit had such a laugh watching people snapped all day every day
Something I’m considering. Always had a big interest in services (including policing and army). I ended up going down the animal industry root but fancy a carer change. Thinking of dog handler or vet nursing.
JUST DO IT.
dont let ur dreams be dreams
I’m the same, working in a vets right now. But always had an interest in the army. I’m 20, so deciding if it’s a good idea to switch up my career now
Dog handler has a notorious waiting list and I believe you already need to be a qualified vet nurse to apply for that role, best of luck if you continue that path though
Did you join
Well dome for doing this video for those who want to join. 8 yrs cadets, 3yrs TA and 5yrs regs came out as a Sgt. Vids like this are great for newbies
Thanks for this video even more insight to the army life. After my brother signed up it’s made me want to join but in a different job, I want to be a royal marine commando. Lucking forward to it and can’t wait to be part of such an amazing lifestyle ❤️ so much respect 🙏🏼
Army brief on Monday morning. Couldn't be more excited, daily work outs, 44 press ups, 50 sit ups, tricep dips, and 2x 1.5 mile run (currently 8 minutes 18 seconds) best time. great video thanks.
I'll be down in Catterick next month for phase 1 and 2 with the Rifles Regiment. Great to find such a helpful channel just in time!
thanks mate appreciate the support
Liam Whitehouse Fully aware of that mate, but thanks for the reassurance.
+LiamBrown if your at catterick do u know anyone called Joel griffin
@@AlW151 update? Hope your well mate
Really insightful so thank you! 👍🏻 Stay safe Liam and thank you for guarding us civis.
Really helpful mate. Thanks a lot. Hope you're still enjoying it!
thanks for the video, Liam. I'm currently going through the recruitment process with my F2F on friday
I have selection next month and hopefully start in August thank you for this I'm worried about being a girl in the army but getting to know more about the army is helping a lot 🙏🏻
Glad I can help
u in the army now??
Great video Liam, I have my Army briefing next week watching this video has given me a insight of what to expect.
I have completed the training (THANKS TOO YOU) and I'm now ready for anything.
Respect to you mate👍 🏴🇬🇧
As a British and American citizen with both passports, I was born in america and grew up in london, I joined the British army first then moved to America and joined the us marines and the royal army was a really good stepping stone into me figuring out If I wanted to purse the armed forces
Great videos man got me and 3 friends we all from South Africa about to join the British army in the new year and we don't what to expect. Your videos have helped a lot
Are you in the army now?
Mate, great video! I served in the engineers for 6 years, left for 4 and am looking to rejoin at 30 years old. Even with my past experience it was good to get a refresh! Mint vid 👌👊
Right now I’m 12 and I can’t wait to join the army , I recently join sea cadets and am going to go to an army collage at 16 . Keep it up ❤️
why sea cadets?
Glad for him to serve his country this was actually similar to my training in the US air force I am a Airman so not all of it was the same
Very good video and great insight to what it would be like joining as a soldier. I have been wanting to join for nearly 5 years now and you sir have almost made my mind up.
Love and Respect from Tidworth💪💪🇬🇧
Great Video! i go down pirbright end of august for my phase 1! absolutely can not wait!
good luck mate
Unfortunately I broke my arm 6 days after I applied. Will have to re-try next year.
good luck mate, if you need any advice just ask me!
Brown Label Nutrition Cheers mate.
Brown Label Nutrition hi mate I wona join but I'm partly blind I don't have a right aye I'm I still able to aply plz reply
Florence Schrevel well do a Nelson and join the Navy :)
I wanna join too but i got a bit of eczema inside my elbows, only time it ever pissed me off is when i saw it might prevent me from joining.
Enjoyed listening to your perspective of basic. You're doing a terrific job!
I joined the r.e.m.e. in 92 and it was the best thing I did and I fully support the idea of conscription to combat the crime element of the u.k these kids lack discipline and personal pride. Love watching this mate, you're doing a great thing and the best of luck with your career.
Great video, i'm starting my Phase 1 next month and can not wait. I'm nervous but excited at the same time and really want a career in the army. I'm going RE as Comms System Operator and just trying to focus on preparation for Phase 1 atm. Really love Army channel's like this keep up the vids mate.
Thanks mate appreciate it! Good luck
Errr If thats your choice... Then WHY??? are you seemingly going para.
Peter Jolley how's it going now :)
Thanks for this 🙏🏻
No problem bro, hope you found it useful.
Legend lad👍 didn’t know what to expect till I watched this. Can’t wait to get away now.
Respect thanks for the video Liam 🏴🇬🇧
Ayyyy I see that de gea poster in the background up the reds!!🔴🔴
I’m 15 I’m thinking of joining the army next year my fitness isn’t as good as I know it can be but I really do want to get it up really glad to see this video it’s really helpful for someone like me I’m currently in army cadets and really enjoying it. Just wanted to say thank you
Did you join ?
@@Glen38 hello no turned out I couldn’t due to medical now work in customer services of all things how my life would be different if I had gone
@@JEN-fo5bq oh I have to stay medical are a huge thing now
@@JEN-fo5bq hopefully you enjoy your job.
fantastic video mate I passed selection a few days ago and should be in phase one in august this is the most up-to-date genuine video I've seen yet thank you and all the best buddy
thanks mate, good luck
I cant wait to join. I'm currently 14 and will go into harrogate after year 11 to start my phase 1 training for infantry.
I have had the dream to join the British Army since I was 6, I'm 13 now and am joining the army cadets when covid is all over, I respect soldiers so much.
I’m almost 15 how do I join the army cadets
@@scottishboi6035 search it up, go onto the British army webpage and type in your address. It will show you the nearest one, press join as a cadet and put in your details. COVID has slowed down them getting through all the enrolment malarkey but I’m sure you will get a reply soon. Good luck!
6:12 that music transition though
You sound proper sound buddy. Thanks for your service
Joining myself in 2 months, thanks for the advice.
Looks like I should have joined the British army lol. When I joined the US army (Mar 2001) and went to basic training our barracks didn't look anything like that lol. They were just big 3 story brick buildings filled with bunk beds. Of course in the US army our basic training is 9 weeks and broken down into three phases (red, white and blue). Red phase is of course the worst because everyone is screaming at you and you are basically running around like a chicken with its head cut off lol. But during basic you aren't allowed to go home or have any days/time off. Once you finish basic you will go and start your MOS training (AIT). My AIT actually was just as bad my basic training in the fact that we were still treated like new recruits and weren't allowed to do anything. I was a MP (military police) and my AIT was another 9 weeks. We did get one weekend pass towards the end of AIT.
The best advice and simplest advice I can give someone joining the army (or any military branch) and about to start basic training is to be in great shape and to have thick skin. Just keep your mouth shut and do what you are told as fast as possible. The worst thing that you can do is stick out to the Drill Instructors. I ended up spending 10 years in the army and doing 2 tours in Iraq and one in Afganistan. Another tip is that you can make your time in the army as good or bad as you want. If you have the right attitude/think skin, then you will enjoy your time in the army. If you have a piss poor attitude and have a big mouth, then your time in the army isn't going to really miserable.
Justin Robbins to be honest mate, my barracks is outdated. Haven't really seen any us barracks so can't really compare
Very well said
The difficult part for me.. is biting my tongue.
I’m being told by everyone that when I leave the army I won’t have a job when I’m 16 I want to go to AFC Harrogate you said you did 10 years, can the army be for life ?
G2 C It can be if you go for LE entry commission. What role do you want to go for?
Says 2021 in the title
*Uploaded 4 years*
This man a time traveller
Please could you consider doing a video explaining the treatment of soldiers in basic training such as locker inspections and that? Cheers. Love the videos
thanks so much! I have been meaning to become apart of the army for a while now, as my family have had a military history so this has helped me understand quite alot
I’m 13 years of age and I’ve wanted to be in the army since I was young. My school have recently had a convention to do with jobs and stuff like that, I’m looking forward to making new friends and doing stuff with my life.
same! good luck to you
You should be 16 now are you in the army
good video. you should also do a video on what to bring to basic training.
Thats a good idea, will do
Thanks Liam,, im just finishing my selection (having to go back to finish a few things), these vid's are very helpful!
Just been for my AB and have to hand the medical form to my doctors. cant wait! thanks for your help on your videos. ill be sure to leave questions i have on your twitter :) Keep it up!
Great channel definitely subscribing, so many guys like nick bare, kyle gott, etc. doing videos like this about the us military but theres been very few resources like this for the british army, great resource to have thanks for making this! Video about the recruitment process would be brilliant if you could do one aswel, cheers!
Appreciate that mate! I plan on doing a recruitment video soon, make sure you watch out for it
Have the notifications turned on I'll keep an eye out! Plan on going for it in the new year probably will be handy to see! cheers again!
Are you intending making the ''green'' your career?
thats the plan, don't see the point of guys only signing on for the four years and leaving it then
Hoping to join asap just gotta sort my life out!
Great video though pal
Love this channel really helpful!
Dear Liam, God Bless - FANTASTIC VIDEO
I'm a University Graduate of Muslim Faith. You have helped me understand the skills needed. Your video is needed to prepare my fitness as all I've been doing is studying to be a Doctor but your video has set forth clearly the levels of fitness and stamina needed to Pass and get in to the British Army.
Thank you so much for this! I've applied and waiting on my two day assessment date which I'm honestly shitting myself for, but this has really helped! thank you :)
Did you end up joining g
@@Glen38 I didn’t, I broke my ankle and had to get a metal plate, then two days later I got a call to go for my assessment
@@BeckyDixon17 oh well hopfully yoir ankle is OK now, what do you work as now
I'm 14 years old and I plan to join the army when I am old enough to. Thanks for this video, it helped me to know what happens when you join the army.
My biggest fears are heights and people I get close to dying, so I need to overcome those fears before I join.
hey, im 18 and thinking of joining. Are you still into the idea
@@gemmabushe277 not anymore, I'm disabled so I gave up on the idea
@@kelceyfirth sorry to hear about that
I'm thinking of joining the army so this is so helpful thanks bro .
Im muzlim , and British, these lads inspire me to get in the army ... keep it up
Respect from the United States keep the good work up I hope we can keep are alliance strong the United states backs the UK fully
im having trouble shaping/moulding my beret. i would love to see a video on how to do it properly (s/wales army cadets)
stay tuned
i tried shaping mine and let me tell you. i didnt have a great time. so good luck. and Rip to ur beret.
Really helpful and encouraging!!!
Thank you 👊🏾 I’m about to go through my phase one training. This helped me out thank you and a lot of respect
hey mate how is it going? I'm looking at joining the Army
I’m joining the army in 2 years ive downloaded the 100% army for app, it’s great help for whoever reads this
Have you joined?
Ashley H-J wow this just popped up in my emails. I’ve got my Royal Marines pre joining fitness test in a few weeks just waiting for the date from the RM. so not the army I took a different route mate but seeing this comment made me laugh haha
@@bobdoyle4058 Thats amazing! I'm hoping to join as an army reserve when I reach 17 and 9 months. Hope all goes well for you! I always love being reminded of old comments its a strange phenomena 🤣
@@bobdoyle4058 Also can I just ask why you decided to go for the Royal Marines instead? And and the fitness requirements much different?
Ashley H-J tbh mate I applied on the marines the day I got my results and it’s taken a year to get to this point but I applied for RM just because I thought I’d I’m gonna go into the armed forces I might as well do it at the highest level and be pushed to my very limit. Hopefully it all goes well for me and if u wanna join the army just yolo it mate
Currently trying to get myself more in shape for the army. Really excited to get to selection but also nervous af if I’m honest.
Did about 2.8km in 20 mins jogging yesterday. Was doing cardio intervals to warm myself up. At the time was on a phone call with a fellow friend and soldier. I realised that the call helped me keep track of each minute. He was really pushing me and whilst I feel like I can certainly do better, I’m trying to just ease myself into it rather than jump in the deep end. The more I work out, the better I will get, right?
right
Hows it going?
I literally 13 but I have always wanted to join the army this is really helpful to get prepared
This is extremely helpful, thank you. Subscribed.
This was so helpful, I’m female and 13, at the moment and in the Army Cadet Force (I get my uniform in 4 weeks. I plan to stay and fight for the country 💪
I'm sure you'll love it. My cousin is 15 and in the army cadets. He's signing up to the army the very day he's old enough to. I'm also signing up next year once my fitness is on track. So glad they've opened up more of their roles to us woman now :)
hey I'm in the same situation, good luck!
Did you join?
@@mrbritannia3833wow this is a throwback, im 17 now and unfortunately unable to join after being diagnosed with ptsd and some bad joint genetics.
Would you recommend joining the army? I’m still 2 years off being able to join the reserve and I’m wondering if I should join the army or navy
Joining the British army myself, going in for infantry I start phase one training in a few weeks found these videos really helpful
How’s it been boss
Can’t wait to start.
LOVE FROM🇳🇵 NEPAL.. HERE NEW SUBSCRIBER
Love back from us in Britain some of our finest men come from Nepal.
@@gemmatindall haha..I know mate..they are called Gurkhas
@@roshangurung8045 yeah that's right heard some interesting tales about Gurkhas in combat.
@@gemmatindall haha..cheers mate
.have a nice weekend
ive sent my medical forms to the gp just waiting on them sending them and then my selection date for glencorse the hopefully starting catterick in the next few months!! cant wait to start i know its gonna be hard but it will be good too!
Lee Thomson good luck mate, if you need any help just message me
Brown Label Nutrition cheers im just nervous about going to glencorse dont want to fuck anything up
Its weird in the beginning, you'll get used to it. good luck mate
Lee Thomson I was at glencorse for my selection, the staff are all down to earth decent and they've scrapped the ice breaker and made it a 'know your partner' where you talk about someone your sat next to. Be prepared for being sat in the medical room for about 5 hours, there is a tv in there all you have to do is ask. The PFA route is not bad it's really flat. Good luck mate.
Kegger i went on a royal regiment of scotland insight couree stayed at redford barracks for 3 days guys there where good to talk to we done the run 4 laps round the main building and they took us down to catterick the next day seen all the places were we'd do training the accomodation lunch hall gym etc and on the last day they took us to glencorse got to speak to a few guys from two scots (battallion i want to join) was amazing and yeah spoke to the instructors there too and some of the medical staff still speaking to the guys i was with on that trip 3 pass selection hopefully mine is soon cant wait to start catterick! thanks for the comment too
I served with the british airforce cadets from early 2016 to mid 2018. I’m guessing it’s totally nothing compared to the armed forces. Thankyou for your service 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Appreciate the video, start training next week, can't wait
no way, good luck mate! if you got questions don't hesitate to ask.
If I could sign up for the army again I would. I signed up for RMP regulars back in 2014 but had to withdraw my application because I ended up in hospital with suspected crohns disease.
I work for the civilian police now but it's just not the same as what RMP would have been.
I’m also Civi police for the Met mate and I’ve spoke to some ex army colleagues and apparently RMP is a MASSIVE step down for us. I’m still thinking of joining as an infantryman but moving to close protection I just haven’t decided yet. Still figuring out if Civi police is for me.
After you do the basic training can you start your apprenticship
It was very informative and I'll use your tips to help me get ready for the army
this is so helpful! thank you
What do you think the likelihood is that British troops could be deployed abroad in the near future?
Vey possible, Not sure where though mate
Ian Brown 😂
Ian Brown so true Britain and us is so up their ass
From when you applied how long was it till
Your first day?
ur a legend and the rest of our armed forces !
Been an army cadet for just over a year now, went on the same trip described in belgium, some of the best times of my life
far more where that came from!
