It's true though, the shovel is amazing! That's why every soldier gets one, and every vehicle should have a full sized one strapped on somewhere. And then there's the heavy digging equipment all over the gawd damned place. I mean, the ARMY has an engineering corps cuzz... "Fuck you, that's why!"
It's that way since before the Romans. Because no Soldier wants to dig Latrines with his hands. I think most Armies have done more Maintenance and Building stuff than actual fighting.

Humanity at its best. Humans look 1 step ahead, plans 5 steps ahead and dream 100 steps ahead. Dreams of space flight when we didn't have powered flight. Dreams of Dyson swarms when we couldn't make viable. Solar panels. Dreamed of doggos when they still ate us.
A hundred flying tanks? Just a hundred? Are we keeping this like a small intimate thing? Cause you know I think I can can get my mate in the Navy to arrange a flyover in a Ragnarok class carrier? Well ok there is the whole cracking the planet with the shockwave risk thing, but that's only happende once!
two great stories, I laughed at the ending of second story. Here is a like and comment for the stories, for entertaining me, to help your channel grow, to appease the great and powerful TH-cam algorithm demon, and get you the recognition you deserve.
Dang, got my hopes up. I thought the humans would have broken out the SDF1 Battlefortress, and fire off it's main gun. Oh well. Guess it wasn't about space combat.

Shovels = firepits. Firepits = hot food. Hot food = happy soldiers. Happy soldiers = bad news for aliens. Ergo, Shovels = bad news for aliens. More shovels = more bad news for said aliens. Ergo, Victory for Humanity.
I would have 100 men pass in review. Naked. . The thing that makes Humans so dangerous is not the tools we carry, but the ability to make a tool (or weapon) out of anything. What makes us deadly is us. WE are the weapon. Everything else is just a means to the end.

Hey, have you ever thought about attending any sci-fi conventions? I know that YT folks that build things have Maker events, but I bet your audience would love the chance to meet you in person. I'm not sure it could be turned into a profit making outing, but if you combined it with a vacation, it's be less of a solitary expense. I'd recommend GenCon (70,000 attendees), but Comic-Con (135,000 attendees) has better press. Those are US events, but Comic-Con has an African arm too.
Funny how the blacksmith of the first story would appreciate the squad with shovels in the second because war, after all. Many thanks.
War....war never changes.
(OK it does...sort of, but, I had too)
@@Wastelandman7000 The basics never change. War is killing people. When you kill enough people, the other side quits.
@@Wastelandman7000If you didn't, I would have.
[Happy Gas Mask Noises] at mention of Shovel.

Yeeeh fear the shovels *happy gasmask noises*
The greatest human weapon is the shovel! KRRRRIEEGGG!
The only thing better than a shovel is TWO shovels.
*Happy gas mask noise*
One to use and one to sharpen!
The three greatest tools of battle, the rifle, the blade the shovel.
Rifle, bayonet (blade), entrenching tool (shovel with extremely sharpened edges) - portable and deadly in expert hands
Great story; Excellent narration! Humans can make a weapon out of anything, including "rocks" and tools! LOL!!!
For DA SKWERL and his Nest
Thank you for the reading

To be fair, a sizeable amount of military stuff is "because FY".

I enjoy all of Agro Squirrel Narrates videos
One of Robert E Lee's nicknames was "King of Spades"
Remember, West Point was primarily an ENGINEERING SCHOOL.
First story reminds me of a movie ive seen a long time ago.

War never changes. It was true then, is true now and will be true in the millenea to come
Amazing work as always. Thnks to the authors and Argo.
Reverse engineering is a heck of a weapon.
hehehe for the second story. Dark chortle.
Amateurs talk tactics. Professionals talk logistics.

I imparted my knowledge on as many as I could. Winner winner chicken dinner.
Both stories are very human indeed.
Love the grind if the first story.

Sweet Liberty its the Shovel of legends !!!
Happy shovel noises.

My son loves your channel and ill be honest I like it too. But yeah the Etool is one of the best close range weapons ever made.
Wonderful story with a wonderful narrator.
Greetings, Mentlegent!

Story 1: Great narration, but incomplete.
Story 2: Humans are Lateral Thinkers.
actually crazy that youre still improving despite being incredibly skilled already
I bought a folding military shovel. Use it monthly. Handy to have in truck. A bit of filing. A nasty weapon.
For the Agro-rythm!
for the shovel! dig soldier dig!
Also.
Shuvl go "THWONK!"
Thank you 🙏

I was looking at the 1940 US Census to get family information and saw my grandfather's job was a Shoveler. I did have to ask what that was.
Or just have the French foreign legion sapper unit march by

May the emperor protect.
Fast rock, big rock, pointy stick, “mud” walls and fire(light/electric/radiation).
Nothing has changed, only the context.
The romans built their empire by building roads. They could always bring up reinforcements or supplies that way.
CLICKETY CLICK!!! WITH ENERGY!!!

The thing that makes Humans so dangerous is not the tools we carry, but the ability to make a tool (or weapon) out of anything.
What makes us deadly is us. WE are the weapon. Everything else is just a means to the end.
Humans, the Ultimate Swiss Army Knife.
As I remind my chicken flock, I'm a tool-using biped, that makes me much more dangerous than they are.
