She did a great job, but a clarification is in order. Until a few years ago, West Point would field teams from every cadet company (36, then reduced to 32). The Brits would bring 2 teams of their best from the entire pool of Sandhurst. It was rare for one of the cadet companies to beat the Brits. There was a lot of internal debate about fielding an academy-wide team vs the smaller pool of cadet companies. Many held that the internal company teams were better for the comraderie and leadership aspects of being part of the train up process. Eventually, USMA began fielding 2 teams that draw from the best cadets from the entire academy rather than limited to one small company. USMA still fields teams from each of the 32 companies but also have the Black and Gold teams which represent the entire academy (like every other competitor school). An analog would be if the Americans represented just their state in the Olympics instead of an entire pool across the Nation. USMA didn't "build" a team to best the Brits. They simply fielded teams composed of the best cadets across the entire academy rather than limited to small company teams (in essence what the Brits do).
I just explained it elsewhere as well because her opening lines were slanted to give the impression that the Brits bringing just one or two teams were better. You explained that much better. By spreading the talent over the 36 companies, the talent was diluted. Now we have two teams of the best from the corps of cadets and the Brits have never won it since. In fact in most cases, it's hard to find them on the finishing list.😅😅
This much British cope reminds me of exercise Green Dagger. British tabloids ran stories about the Royal Marinss smashing the Yank Marines and forcing them to reset or surrender. Only to find out none of that happened, the Royal Marines did absolutely nothing the entire exercise, and they were attached to US Marines and led by US Marines the entire time. We're dealing with a country whose population is absolutely brainwashed into believing everything they're told. They think they're super soldiers and it's comical.
@@DH-bg1qo yes, back over the first 10 or 15 years it was just a training exercise for each of the cadet companies. And send her started sending a team over that wanted every time for a while so West Point decided to create their own two teams among the best of those from the companies. And they never lost to Sandhurst again. Plus it's been growing and growing to include all these ROTC and International Teams now. It's very cool.
@@scottbarry62 Typical Yank, to beet the Brits you have to have a full time team, training day in and day out on the same course. Less arrogance, and I know this one is hard for you lot but more humility would make you look more professional
Proud to have graduated from West Point. Although I never competed in Sandhurst, it was cool seeing all the teams work so hard to prepare for competition day. I even got a coin from the Japanese coach during my first year at the Academy for helping them set up one of the lanes.
7:47 The Danish guy said “Skåne is Danish”. That was Basicly as close to declaring war on Sweden as possible XD. Imagine an Irish Soldier saying that Northern Ireland belongs to Rep. Ireland. That is about the equivalent to what just happend!😂 Also! How did the Scandinavian rivalries go? Who won the internal Scandinavian competition?!?
Meanwhile Russia Who can trick the most state money out of the Kremlin eg cardboard body armour, signing up non existent soldiers so you can take their pay etc.
Says it all doesn't it ! Everyone else sends their regular OCS who do well but the Yanks need a special training unit just for the competition. Maybe we should send some Ghurkha Officer Cadets next year...those wee fellas should give the Yanks the willes
Good lord, if that isn't the biggest cope comment I've seen on here yet. A special team, you say? Do you mean the ROTC Cadets from several colleges? You know, students that aren't even in the military? You sent two teams, and both teams got beat by several college ROTCs, the Canadians, Norwegians, Mexico, Poland, etc. There was no "special team." And before you comment any further, your officer Corps spends all year training for this competition. 😂
@@DirtyMikeandTheBoys69 You didn't watch the video then. becasue it was stated that after getting beat by the brits a few times the created special teams. Team Black and Team Gold. Go watch the video again dude ...
You guys can't stand to lose! Lol! Sandhurst is not normal, they are your best, and their leader said they trained up for the events. I liked serving with your troops in Iraq!
Watching videos like this is super interesting, this is a side of the army that looks so different from what I saw. Almost unbelievable that this is even the army. People smiling? No wonder why officers are always happy. Especially on the pog side.

im curious how British military went from regularly winning to the point of usa military had to put two dedicated teams to winning the competition to British military being 14th and 35th in this result. where did it go wrong for British military.

@@TopHatHat oh that's right, forgot they did that. Still, seems like it's gotta be easier to find one in UK MoD storage and a GPMG than to go to a US airbase? Idk stuck out as strange to me
You have nothing similar to m-4 carbine, let alone having to re assemble it blind folded, hence the gist of the commentator. Learn to listen instead of being so hystericaled and easily triggered by anything American. You nonsense island bound nonsense are just pathetic.
I'm kind of surprised Aus and NZ aren't included in this competition. Maybe in the future. The competition looks great. Love the Canadians with their relaxed grooming standards. 🤙
What a great competition, very proud to see our (Canadian) cadets do so well. More importantly, awesome to see the collaboration between allies and friends. Russia or China could never match the strength of these allied nations.
Believe it or not but Finland came last from all the Nordic countries but still managed to beat the UK red team😂😂, also shout out to Norway and Poland finishing high for the Europeans!!!
Sandhurst's epic 44 week course is legendary. In the US it takes 4 years to train an officer, in France 3 yeara. British officer do it in a fraction of the time, and they don't even need a degree, they're that good.
Funny title, because one of our Canadian teams won 2nd and 6th place at West Point this year out of 48 participating teams (NOT BAD!!!), NOT the UK (they came in 14th), and both of our teams together won the international cup for their cumulative scores. So the competition is pretty much US vs. Canada, NOT UK vs. USA (the UK came in . Don't worry about the mullets, that experience is over.
We were sabotaged! We were robbed! We will come back again victorious…. just not this year. Well done to the winners, commiserations to the losers. Great to see all allied nations demonstrate great camaraderie! 👍🏾
the US would be the ones to make an entire specific team just so they have more chance lmao. Jokes aside this is amazing to see, NATO and their allies are fantastic.
Yep then they could have a competition to see who could throw the most shrimp on a barbie in a minute, who could throw a tin of Fosters the furthest and who could bowl a Kiwi the fastest. (Aussies and Kiwis I’m joking)
@@nigeh5326 Not a joke, mate..... The lads and lasses from the Australian Defence Academy (university-stage for army, navy and air force officer cadets) would have done themselves proud!!!! Grüße aus Australien. Tschüss.
They should mixed up the personnel from each country, rather than to compete as country teams. This way they get to work together across national boundaries and get to know one another.
It's full name is "The United States Military Academy at West Point". It's not a "training" school! To call it that is absolutely incorrect, and more than a little insulting.
1.) The vast majority of those teams are ROTC Cadets in college. 2 ) Canada only fielded two teams and got 2nd place, so what's your excuse? 3.) It's not about the odds. It's about the best overall team. Whether we submit 100 teams or 1 team, the fact remains that you got beat by the best overall team, which was from the USMA. Keep coping. It's no different than your Royal Sandhurst Academy competition. You field several teams each year. You don't hear anyone else crying about it.
@@DirtyMikeandTheBoys69 Ridiculous nonsense running around in circles without answering a simple questions. Surely, if we're so bad, why couldnt you beat us, doesn't that say a lot about your ineptness and stagnant impotence? Ridiculous deluded triggered impotent nonsense.
@@DirtyMikeandTheBoys69 I'm sorry was not Crying just didn't understand how the teams are set up and I rewatched the vid, and know its an America Tradition. You didn't have to be insulting you could have Helped without the chip on your shoulder. Thanks. .
Haha, the fact that the US had to create two teams who are purpose built to just train for this competition in order to win is crazy. Really goes to show why the british managed to dominate the world.
Americans getting cocky saying they're going to win when VAST MAJORITY OF THE TEAMS ARE AMERICAN. Wtf? With those numbers it would be a surprise if they didn't.
No no no. She gave the wrong impression. The Brits haven't won it in decades. They won when they came over in 1993 and for a few years after because they were bringing the best of their best over to compete as one team while our talent was spread over 36 different company teams. We finally got sick of that and created two teams of the best of the best of West Point and they have never lost to the Brits since. In fact this year the Brits are so far back it's hard to find them on the finishing list. The West Point team has won almost every single year since they changed the format except for 1 time 3 years ago when they embarrassingly lost to the Air Force Academy. So no, you have nothing to tease your brother about.
@@scottbarry62 I wasn't that invested in it dude. I enjoyed seeing us and our allies having a little fun together. That was great. Thanks for the info tho.
@@brand8590 Yeah, the Brits did dominate pretty much every competition, even the US only exercises about 20/30 years ago. In recent times, the Brits do not really take this seriously and only sent a team for formalities. The participation is so low for this they had to find an American exchange to captain their team as nobody in England wanted to go.
@@RRaymer Ya, that sounds about right. I've bumped into the Brit military a few times and they always seemed competent. they make the best of what they've got. Remember operation "rattlesnake", they are still the only foreign military to win it. Once. The commanding US general said "the British army are the masters of fundamentals. And fundamentals will save you." Besides, the Brits and the Aussies are still the best people to have a drink with. lol
The 3 Canadians that we can hear is this video are French-Canadians (you can see the names on their patches : Fortin, Beaumont and Bélisle ), so english is their second language.
For the Brits who are thinking they do so well, they took 14th and 35th among the teams this year. And no, the reporter is on drugs because West Point does not have two specialist teams that train year round. Completely false. They have a competition between the 36 company teams a few months prior to this and then they choose the best among those competitors to create the USMA Black and Gold teams. They then train for a couple of months before the competition just like all the other teams. And keep in mind that one of the reasons the Brits like to think they're so cool is because they are almost all former members of active duty units before they attend the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst. That's why they have a tremendous advantage but they've lost it over the last 20 years. The West Point teams have won every single competition over the last 2 decades except one time when the Air Force Academy took it 3 years ago.
@@freddiehunt309 by the way, were you aware that last year the British army was re-categorized as a tier 2 fighting force? Ouch. Remember when you were great? Actually, all kidding aside, I am glad that some of your military leaders are trying to reinvest and bring the British Army back to where it belongs. I love the UK and I was very saddened to see that.
You do realise the Brits do not orient teams for a competition like this. If they did like in the 90's, they would be dominating again. They just send an opt in team for formalities nowadays.
@@RRaymerthey absolutely do orient their teams like this. Anyone that spoke to them at West Point knows they host their own competition, select the winners, and then send them to the Sandhurst comp. Everyone has been doing this for quite some time.
It's wild that people think hair length would affect them in any way. I think coming in second out of all of those teams speaks for itself. Also no, hair nets aren't issues to anyone in the CAF.
@@kcrafter101 I've operated with special forces and some operations have long hair That's usually because of the nature of the mission soldiers on parade and on public duty with long hair look like nothing more than an unkempt to scruffy rabble I take it you've never served in the armed forces
we british treat it like a vaction, nothing to do with real war, real war is what we british are very good at, in fact the best in the world, but a chance of a vaction in America who's going to turn that down, we brits treat this type of compition as a bit of a joke.
Canada just got new Dress Policy which includes new hair standards. Well see what happens to the mullets. Mullet should still be reg but the phrase "Project a positive military appearance" might give some Seargent Majors some ideas.
finishing second is your answer. The USMA teams draw from a field 7 times the size of RMC with substantially better training resources. When I shot against USMA they had an indoor pistol range that was nothing short of beautiful: a real pleasure to fire on.
Funny how you ignore that none of the other American teams trained for this all year round, but that didn't stop the Air Force Academy, Texas A&M, West Point Alpha 3, Notre Dame, Minnesota, or Embry-Riddle from beating your best team, lol. And then the Virginia Military Institute, West Point Golf 3, Lehigh, West Point Fox 2, Arkansas, West Point Delta 4, West Point Echo 2, Liberty, the US Naval Academy, Oregon State, Central Florida, and Marquette beat your 2nd best team. Stop acting like 2 of West Point's specialist teams stopped you from winning. The simple reality is that Sandhurst was going to be abysmal this year one way or another.
Yeah, you're welcome to start your own competition. Too bad you're too skint and irrelevant to do so, as you're a glorified third world country on a nonsense little irrelevant island archipelago. Yeah, Broke Britain.
The Canadian cadets rocking the hockey hair is hilarious.

For the Brits who are thinking they do so well, they took 14th and 35th among the teams this year. And no, the reporter is on drugs because West Point does not have two specialist teams that train year round. Completely false. They have a competition between the 36 company teams a few months prior to this and then they choose the best among those competitors to create the USMA Black and Gold teams. They then train for a couple of months before the competition just like all the other teams. And keep in mind that one of the reasons the Brits like to think they're so cool is because they are almost all former members of active duty units before they attend the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst. That's why they have a tremendous advantage but they've lost it over the last 20 years. The West Point teams have won every single competition over the last 2 decades except one time when the Air Force Academy took it 3 years ago.
Does your husband find you interesting at dinner?
@freddiehunt309 you're not following this very well are you? I guess losers will be losers. Goodbye, loser
@@freddiehunt309 by the way, were you aware that last year the British army was re-categorized as a tier 2 fighting force? Ouch. Remember when you were great? Actually, all kidding aside, I am glad that some of your military leaders are trying to reinvest and bring the British Army back to where it belongs. I love the UK and I was very saddened to see that.
You do realise the Brits do not orient teams for a competition like this. If they did like in the 90's, they would be dominating again. They just send an opt in team for formalities nowadays.
@@RRaymerthey absolutely do orient their teams like this. Anyone that spoke to them at West Point knows they host their own competition, select the winners, and then send them to the Sandhurst comp. Everyone has been doing this for quite some time.
The Canadian men's hair is longer than the women's I find that a bit strange . Men's hair nets issued as standard kit ??
no, its within dress regs
It's wild that people think hair length would affect them in any way. I think coming in second out of all of those teams speaks for itself. Also no, hair nets aren't issues to anyone in the CAF.
@@kcrafter101 I've operated with special forces and some operations have long hair
That's usually because of the nature of the mission soldiers on parade and on public duty with long hair look like nothing more than an unkempt to scruffy rabble I take it you've never served in the armed forces
Canada has unisex dress and grooming regs (same with RCMP)
@@exsubmarinernew grooming regs.
Ruperts vs Ruperts.
Handbagging instead of milling.
Why the gratuitous inclusion of female cadets? At 9:37 she wasn't even carrying the boat.
Oh my days, shut up already.
We see female soldiers firing guns, climbing and other stuff. Chill out!
So who won the Nordic Cup within the competition? 🇳🇴 🇩🇰 🇸🇪 🇫🇮
Norway in 7, Denmark 21, Sweden 24, Finland 33
we british treat it like a vaction, nothing to do with real war, real war is what we british are very good at, in fact the best in the world, but a chance of a vaction in America who's going to turn that down, we brits treat this type of compition as a bit of a joke.
Christian: a button in the bays is a bullet in the batttlefield. Sort your rig out son.
From dominating the competition to 14th and 35th. I hope this isn't a sign of our military's abilities.
Sorry. But did someone just compare the M17 to the Glock?
cool!
lok apart from US no battle-hardened big army, yet so much hype.
British team is not trained in the competition. They just show up and win. You yanks have to always take it to far
I dont know about others but as Ex British military who's with for SIG over Glock?
Mohammad Ghadaffi was educated there after he murdered the Lybian king.
Canada just got new Dress Policy which includes new hair standards. Well see what happens to the mullets. Mullet should still be reg but the phrase "Project a positive military appearance" might give some Seargent Majors some ideas.
finishing second is your answer. The USMA teams draw from a field 7 times the size of RMC with substantially better training resources. When I shot against USMA they had an indoor pistol range that was nothing short of beautiful: a real pleasure to fire on.
@@guywarwick9060Just goes without saying, the old farts against new hair regs don’t know anything
Where were the Aussies?
US should invite China and Russia. I would like to see if they can beat them.
Hrrm shouldn't they use their own gear?
It's unfair game for us army to compete with militia
11:39 the m240b is our GPMG and the m249 is the LMG, so yes we do have them
M249 hasn't been in service for at least 5 years
The L7A2 is the current GPMG
How come the USMC doesn't participate? And did the Zoomies win with quickest time?
Marines do not have a separate academy. They attend the US Naval Academy at Annapolis. As a result, maybe the Marine cadets are part of the Navy team.
@@ChrisMrPeligroBoone Okay, but what about the Basic School or USMC OCS?
The USAFA were running at take off speed
go Aggies!
Typical American have 2 groups who train for this all year around 😂 can we have royal marine and para officers doing it next time!
Funny how you ignore that none of the other American teams trained for this all year round, but that didn't stop the Air Force Academy, Texas A&M, West Point Alpha 3, Notre Dame, Minnesota, or Embry-Riddle from beating your best team, lol. And then the Virginia Military Institute, West Point Golf 3, Lehigh, West Point Fox 2, Arkansas, West Point Delta 4, West Point Echo 2, Liberty, the US Naval Academy, Oregon State, Central Florida, and Marquette beat your 2nd best team.
Stop acting like 2 of West Point's specialist teams stopped you from winning. The simple reality is that Sandhurst was going to be abysmal this year one way or another.
Yeah, you're welcome to start your own competition. Too bad you're too skint and irrelevant to do so, as you're a glorified third world country on a nonsense little irrelevant island archipelago. Yeah, Broke Britain.
Typical British, getting beat by ROTC Cadets and then blaming everything but their own performance....
Must have been embarrassing bringing those fishing tac-vests for the Canadians
5:54 💀
This is grat eny way can we get the kid cadets on somthine like this
