  • Oh... So thats what the army does when we're out fighting !!!

    Semper Fi (:

  • @MrFight77 This is the Army National Guard. Not active. Don't be so ignorant.

  • not very nice at all you seem to treat woman as 2nd class, when they are there with you.

  • @princess43489 I am a woman. I'm the red head and I think I treat myself pretty well.

  • @betchitty i have not mentioned anything about a red head, but as i said before it seems the men treat you like 2nd class people i.e. whores etc.

  • @princess43489 I stated who I was because I wanted you to know a female and I made the videos. You will find men from all occupations that treat women like second hand citizens, which we had. I don't think it was the military though, I think it was a few individuals. Did you have experience or know someone that felt this way from experience?

  • @princess43489 in britain woman are treated on an equal footing, and certainly in the armed forces. we dont have men who think they are better than us and if it does there is hell to pay, we have a thing called human rights. merry christmas

  • hell yeah

  • This video shows the tiny things that make us humans in the face of adversity and form our memories of things years later.

    Watch "Pearl Harbor" for reference. I know it's a movie but those people had lives OUTSIDE of the war. We forget that. Their memories of that conflict are so foreign to what you may assume as to be unimaginable to those who were not there.

    Don't think you know a thing until you have experienced it 'first-hand'.

    Thanks @Betchitty for posting this.

    Big thumbs up...

  • @Prometheus1st thank you for the reply.

  • hey im 17 and ive been wondering more about going into the military, ive been scared and wondering what happens. is it like ROTC or training or anything? if you know what im talking about

  • there doing a hard enough job in the worst area of the world....far as i'm concerned, they can do anything (legal) they want to do to unwind....

  • We clean Weapons and prep for the next day on a day off in the INFANTRY

  • @RRMacTruk I'm sure someone will believe that.

  • @RRMacTruk yeah your dumb i bet you aint even in the army cause that was just stupid .. Im infantry and im my days off i played xbox and here in garrison I get drunk on my days off..

  • @RRMacTruk its like prepping for the next 10 days on so you can come back to eat at the fob an have pogs tell you not to walk and smoke while they have a dip the size of a football in there lip

  • if so it isn't the choice of these soldiers to be serving our country this way they entered the service to defend. i would much rather be working at jack n the crack then be off thinking that i am going to die for my country for the small amount that we are paying them to do so.so get real these soldiers are just making the best of what they got and you are mocking them....

  • @boremilling

    Amen. They get shit when they're only doing what they're paid to do. It ain't right

  • you know what guys? I've seen videos of people in areas where combat is heavy run around doing dick moves to each other for the hell of it, screwing around, it's normal I dunno if it was in a combat area but there was a guy with a sniper rifle in his underwear chasing chickens shit's normal, it isn't fobbits that do this only or something, sure they might have more time to do it, or a safer area, but everybody does it in their own way always been that way in the military

  • @noobler9 I'm not in the miltiary, never have been, but there's enough videos out there of people messing around, and some of it is almost certainly somewhere there's potential fighting, and you know what? soldiers who have been in combat mess around on their off time too, generals to private, doesn't matter they all do it soldiers are people too

    unrelated to this particular war, but some the funniest shit is german WW2 soldiers dealing with kittens in the middle of a freshly wrecked city

  • i get what you are trying to do with this video. of course its going to catch some flak, its a very sensitive subject. there is alot of lives and alot of money pouring into iraq. i get it though, everyday activities of people.

  • @clmarek1 thanks for this comment. I agree with everything you say. People, including me, don't always use the best ways to relate their ideas. For example, saying you suck as in the post below this.

  • that baseball field is bigger than my whole little fob

  • The only reason most civilians think the military only fucks off over there is because of stupid ass videos made by fobbits like this. It perpetuates the misconception. I know depending upon your MOS you can't make videos about what your really doing but you can't complain when people watch this crap and then think there was little to no danger in either Iraq or Asscrackistan. These videos are totally self defeating.

  • @TheRealSuperSlayer there is nothing self defeating about this. Every MOS has off time at some point and this is what the video is about. Plus, when I put this up there were no other videos likes this. I don't care that people complain, but I do care if someone is just putting YOU SUCK. Why do I suck? Everyone has a day off and everyone deserves a chance to relax even if it is war.

  • @TheRealSuperSlayer also, when I put it up I was tired of watching nothing but things exploding. it isn't like that 24/7 so why make it appear that way?

  • @TheRealSuperSlayer Its called Afghanistan. Learn geography.

  • @TheRealSuperSlayer Asscrackistan Lol nice way to discribe a shity conutry funny as hell;)

  • 1:11 lol... Women

  • HALO!

  • CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY THE TROOPS ARE IN IRAQ? ....WHOEVER I ASK JUST SAYS "I DONT KNOW" ..yeah i know i should watch the news right? ..but help me out here

  • lol soldiers are so empty headed,gormless bofoons

  • @wotsgonon1

    Bofoons? C'mon man, if you're going to insult an entire job sector, at least have the decency to spell your insults correctly

  • @alexjonezNH lol are you a teacher

  • @wotsgonon1

    Nope :P Don't need to be

  • Feed the cats! Good job!

  • im talkin about the guy that is all sad about " ive not been at war since ive been here, i dont get to shoot people, maybe il shoot you. seems like ya made a mistake thats all im sayin.

  • Fucking FOBBITS people gave their lives so you would feel safe you should have never joined

  • @xw1llx01 OMG brother. Tell me about it! Fucking fobbits constantly bitch bitch bitch while they sit on the fob in their air conditioned connex's, eating their fucking kbr fried chicken and playing halo on the unit LAN while combat arms and 11bs are in the shit. Mother fucking Fobbits.

  • @xw1llx01 Actually they gave their lives cuz they're fucking brainwashed idiots. We are over there, they aren't defending shit but oil interests among other for the RICH by the RICH u fucking idiot! When we are being attacked then they are giving their lives as will I but until then statements like yours are not patriotic but instead, FUCKING RETARDED.

  • @wasssuppp08 The us soldiers are serving and working hard for the u.s, and they deserve to play hard too. You must be working i supposed, and you have the free time to surf the net, watch videos on youtube, and give some dumb comments, don't you?

  • If you feel like you didnt serve a purpose or saw a war, why don't you try leaving the FOB for once, you might change you mind. How about, instead you join the Infantry or Engineers and see what The real soldiers see when they are deployed

  • @wasssuppp08 A mercenary is a person who takes part in an armed conflict, who is not a national or a party to the conflict, and is "motivated to take part in the hostilities essentially by the desire for private gain and, in fact, is promised, by or on behalf of a party to the conflict, material compensation substantially in excess of that promised or paid to combatants of similar ranks and functions in the armed forces of that Party

  • @wasssuppp08 The private military company (PMC) is the contemporary strand of the mercenary trade this is not a PMC. I should not have called you a retard that's a troll thing to do sorry

  • was the guy at the start a scientologist?

  • Really rat? This is not a Pink song there was no beginning with Dear Mr. President in any part of it.

    If you are in the military you should watch what you are saying and have some respect. We had people die while we are there the same way the regular Army did. We took over for a regular Army unit and had a regular Army unit take over when we left. We are all one military. The only difference is, when we go overseas for two years our term isn't over.

  • All I hear on this video is some whimpy POG. Wah wah wah. National guardsmen comlaining to their President openly on You Tube. You people are a disgrace to the military and should not wear the same uniform as the Regular Army. Stop bitching about not shooting anyone while enjoying your BBQ at the same time while you play catch with girls. OMG your power went out and you cant play your video games.I guess the world is going to end. Go back in your CHU and stop complaining you stupid POGs!

  • @oidrat1984 HOOAH!

  • you have to love all the lazy turds sitting at HOME in other countries passing judgement on their computers... aw sorry cole666...didnt see you lounging there you lazy B!??

  • the chick is pretty hot

  • lol xD 1:43 random soldier walking eating something

  • Good work people ;)

    Courage to all of you , and thanks to fight the fight .

  • loool 0:18 "what do u think of this whore" lool

  • EERAGH

    not EYE RACK you ignorant AmuriKKKan

  • @PersoAryanism

    Wait what?

  • Comment removed

  • @cole666ify I am saying these are things that happen during our off time in Iraq. There are different opinions in the military just like there are in the civilian world. I didn't enjoy the military. I joined young and did my time. I have nothing but respect for those who serve and are serving. The opinions of the people in here are not necessarily my own.

  • Comment removed

  • @cole666ify wait. I'm not sure exactly what you're saying. I am racist because I have friends who are not white and I filmed them?

  • @cole666ify what the hell are you trying to say?

  • @cole666ify because its a really nice home video ya got here props for that but as for the question you ask; "Why am i here? do i serve any purpose..." The question everyone has for you is ;"why are you there? do you serve any purpose?" we are all rootin for ya man hope all is well but whats with all the complaining?

  • THAT'S HOW IT'S DONE O YEAH

  • maybe someone whos not a pog should do this

  • @fjared36 Well the Taliban didn't fly the plane over the World Trade Center, so why should we be any different? If we don't brainwash, we get soft soldiers. Soft soldiers don't win wars. If you don't win wars, you can't stimulate an economy. If the government is spending my tax money on ammunition for a soldier that doesn't use it properly, I have a fucking problem.

  • Comment removed

  • @Xmaggot93X wow. you hold a lot of judgments on things you have never had anything to do with. this is actually showing there are things not to complain about over there.

  • playn halo in the military yea it dont get much better then that.....or does it (halo reach)

  • So this is why my friend always wants to go back to Iraq. He gets payed to play.

  • They better not fucking throw those cats off a cliff!

  • Cool Who care's come home safe thank you great job 10000000000 star's

  • @fjared36 Is that seriously true? who told you that?

  • I kinda expected this to be the work of some idiot who was totally against the war and wanted to make soldiers look bad. thank you for showing that there is not constant fighting there. im currently in highschool and joined the marines, its a relief to know that there is time to goof off too

  • wats up with the 4 random cats ?

  • there just like the people back in the U.S they arnt always working they get a break too

  • what an idiot this video is sad and yes there are breaks when u sleep. your gay rainbow unit might not have seen nothing because u guys are a bunch of fags. SAPPERS LEAD THE WAY.

  • @maxpan2001 breaks when you sleep? that's bullshit. I personally was army intelligence. without us missions would never be completed and yes, this faggy unit had pilots and regular convoy missions. I also know plenty of other people that were in other units. some who've watched people killed right in front of them. there were breaks for all of these people. so your a damn liar or not in the military.

  • @betchitty lol i got them same army shorts *jrotc raider team* lol those are swiming trunks THO lol. hey i have some thing to ask can i join the reserve when ib school? and there others jobs can you do in iraq or afghah thats not 11b infantry?

  • @Young16654 I joined when I was 17 in highschool still. I went to basic training that summer and then came back to senior year. If your recruiter works it out he might be able to make it happen. Many jobs are in Iraq. Infantry is only one part of the military and honestly more people are in other positions. Think about it before you do it though. Personally, I think it would be best to finish school and then think about whether this is the best thing to do.

  • @Young16654 No, the only soldiers in Iraq are Infantrymen. The DOD does not allow any other MOS in Iraq due to the dangerous environment.

  • for some reason i thought you guys would all be way better at softball....

  • Fight the Illuminatis war!

  • Well why you were making this video there was a war going on. for some of us who were out the wire everyday and not behind a desk at fucking victory.

  • @scoutcliff I wasn't at victory. You never had a break while you were there? If you say no breaks then your a damn liar. Your a dumbass if you were there, which I don't think you were or you wouldn't have written this. Plus, there are video of people outside of the wire all the blowing up bullshit I won't put on here.

  • you guys get porn over there?

  • @PARTYORWHAT there isn't supposed to be porn over there. Doesn't mean it isn't there though.

  • @betchitty

    haha i see...

    stay safe guys :D

  • @PARTYORWHAT hahahahahahhaa niceeee

  • @elocwood1 im thinking about joining so i need my porn yo :D

  • get off youre lazy asses and get to work! either win the fight or come home stop fooling!!!! geezz this fight aint cheaP YA KNOW

  • @Sonicku you go over to iraq and fight the war nonstop tell me how you feel after a week

    jackass

  • come home safe... and fight a way more bad enemy. corruption.

  • idiots that think there doing noting have you ever seen the movie jarhead that explains wy they do like this irag is a seriouse buisnes but allot of the time theres noting to do and its boring so they have to fill there time with the things they CAN do over there... you cant expect them to stand stil and look forward there humans not japanese :p

  • lol. of course now you may be criticized for being racist.

  • @3tyson Please dont base your ideas on the military, or any war, based on what Hollywood puts out. At the very least go read an Osprey book or two if your subject is a past war, if its a current or recent war and you want to know 'what its like'...Join up.

  • @pinworms70 90% from al holliwood productions are indeed bulshit i agree but that doesnt mean the ful 100% is bulshit and this film indeed has some things wich are true such as the fact that soldiers are getting borred in afganistan/iraq and yes i am going to join the military ps please dont tell me what to base my ideas :)

  • @3tyson hey dumbass jarhead was a different war. shit changes over time.

  • @nightywhitey that dosent change over thousands of years if you think about it warfare hasent changed that much just the means by which we fight it

  • (continue from last comment, wrote too much apparently) but of course everyone is human, people act the way they do. Remember INTEGRITY, doing the right thing, even when no one is looking.

  • I read some comments and some of you guys are idiots. Iraq is not all fun and games, soldiers work really hard out here, and die out here. Some get the luxury of getting time off to play games, call home, etc. Some have more luxury than others. But we all fight the same fight, i think its real sad and ignorant when civilians talk shyt about soldiers and i think its even more ignorant when soldiers talk shyt to civilians, especially because yous SHOULD know better,

  • @bigpapi773 i totally agree typical american twat tryin to big them selves up,

  • that guy singing ''some kinda wonderfull'' is obviously singing about anal sex coz he sure is walking that way

  • 1:20 - good catch :)

  • nice guys and girls in the same camp

  • sorry the but fags and people that cant graduate from high school cant join your a fu$## idiot if you think your just in your post i hope your not a US resident becuse if you were i would shoot you on the spot for trechery just becuse they would not exsept your inbreed west vergina ass dont mean you talk shit about others im in to protect people like you so you can have your little fucking freeadom of speech bullshit so stars like micheal jackson was able to rape little boys

  • idiots like you do nothing more than prove me right . go play counterstrike in iraq and do us all a favour and step on a mine

  • @lotuspod1222 how about you learn how to spell first. But I agree with you about MJ.

  • @halo3odstvideo hey dude i had family and friends in the service and thank god they came back safe and healty. this is a really fucked up msg you put out there for these people, this isn't a bullshit x-box kid game you halo fag!

  • what message are you speaking of that's fucked up?

  • he was speaking about this one Halo3odst said.

    halo3odst:when u go to war. remember u will die. you will be there till u die. but if ur lucky, ull go home

  • @betchitty The message that its all fun and games and our soldiers are not really at war, or dying. I am thrilled to see they have found ways to still enjoy life to help keep their minds right while dealing with a very hard lifestyle, and risking their lives for us while we sit back and enjoy the freedom they have allowed us over the years.

  • im well aware of the fact that nobody put a gun to their heads to join, some do it as a last resort and some can't wait to serve, but they are still human beings with loved ones who just want to see them in one piece and as mentally stable as possible.

  • look everyone, i appriciate all these soldiers do, but its sort of fd up deal for them at times. they sign a contract giving 100 percent to this country and govt. but god forbid something bad happens to them or the worse they die in combat, where is the 100 percent back up from this govt. then?

  • No, it wasn't Anaconda. Sorry.

  • I think one of them is my brother. Is this Camp Anacoda in Bala?

  • some cute ass kittens..

  • Is that FOB warrior?

  • you know what i find hella depressing? all the poor children and animals that have to live through this stuff.. the cats reminded me:( did you know they have a program that will take the animals from there and send them to the us to get adopted? i thought that was really cool. but no.. great video. and thank you so much for protecting our country

  • You guys should get a theatre troupe together. Re-enact some scenes from Catch-22 :)

  • I've re-visited this three months later. Why have three people marked me down?

    Catch-22 is an awesome book, and funny. This is a funny video about what soldiers do in their spare time.

    Catch-22 has no fighting, it's all off duty, bored soldiers.

    What's the problem?

    Oh yeah, you;re all FUCKING YANK CUNTS who been BRAINWASHED BY YOUR CULTURALLY IMPERIALIST POLITICIANS TO BELIEVE WHATEVER THE HELL THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE.

    Which, funnily enough, is also what Catch-22 is about :)

  • Yea it must Suck being a fobbit. have you ever shot an iraqi they should ask if they ever leave the gate.

  • actually, the majority of people in this video left the gate for missions. some of them were pilots who left daily. some of them left on mission quite often and never shot anyone. people have different experiences and no one should be disrespected because you're bitter.

  • great video

  • LISTEN TO MY POLITICAL OPINIONS!!!

  • best comment.

  • 3 other German Soldiers Died in Afghanistan....where is our Reward for that...WHERE IS IT DAMNIT

  • sadly there are no rewards in war to anyone... it's all a loss whether you're German, American or even Iraqi

  • More like fighting for the Iraqi people. We (the US, British, Canadian, Iraqi, Afghani, and other forces) are trying to take Iraq and Afghanistan back from the extremists that want to go back to the old ways, where the people are exploited and persecuted because they have differing beliefs in who is a true descendant of Muhammad (one of the fundamental differences between Sunni and Shia Muslims) or they do not want to be pushed around by corrupt warlords and dictators. Get your facts straight.

  • you missed the part with all the dead citizens

  • what's missing is you keeping your non-factual nonsense to yourself.

  • well whatever, must be fun for them to know that they're risking their life for the sake of fat corrupt businessmen.

  • I thought for A split secound  i was watching MASH!

  • Was that soldier at 1:00 actually trying to bring down that section of wall, by pulling on it? Please tell me he wasn't because that would just be embarrassing as an American to have someone representing me that would even consider that possible! LOL at 2:22 I thought she said "Last Time We Had a Water Pipe!!" haha

  • that was no where near trying to pull down a wall at 1:00, it was a joke for checking if the DCU's were working to blend in

  • Right on Bro. Jealous countries WISH they could be American. So all we have to ask them when they throw hate is...JEALOUS MUCH????

  • jealous to be american you have got to be kidding i am from england and you really think that people are jealous .i have been to america and most people are very false they say all the time have a nice day then behind your back they say something else

  • Whatever. Every country has its ups and downs, as well as good and bad, angels and devils. The only difference in it all, is how you treat the rest of the world. So bad mouthing other countries is just as bad as the ragheads who want to take out the free world, to let the evil little ragheads rule.

  • YEAH! AMERICA ROCKS BABY, WOO!

    Except, most Americans are only involved in the flag waving, not anything difficult or dangerous that promotes their beloved Americanness. Probably just some sort of lack of meaning that forces them to dissolve their own identities into an abstract notion (even one as vapid as nationality).

  • Support American Troops In Iraq, But wheres the support for our Aussies and the Brits ?

  • mostly AMERICANS support AMERICAN troops so u should support ur own troops but u can also support the americans if u WANT to

  • I'm greatful for the Aussies and the Brits and all the rest who are dealing with the hardships of war...having fun wherever you are is good for morale...just make sure your AO is squared away!!!

    Stay SAFE!!!

  • we canadians play sand hockey instead of baseball. baseball sucks

  • how would sand hockey work?  Wouldn't the puck/etc get stuck every time you hit it into the sand?

  • Read a book... you are boring and ignorant barbarians.

  • Everyone gets their share of fun.

  • Americans give Muslims way too many reason to hate you!!! So next time there is an attack in the US, don't act shocked or surprised!

    Too all the morons, who call the Resistance Fighters terrorists, you are nothing but a bunch of Cowards, who have lost you manhood! Imagine if it was the other way around, would you just sit at home and accept the occupation and subjugation of your Nation?!

  • It's someone fault to die? Really? Wow. Also, it's offense. Everyone has an opinion and I can respect that, but people should have respect for the soldiers over there who are actually risking their lives. No one has to respect me, because I haven't done anything. Most importantly respect the people who have died because that is not their fault.

  • you chose to sign up. its your fault. no offince or anything

  • AWallgreen, hope you get killed in Iraq. you suck. Go kill yourself

  • Must have been nice living in hard facilities...eating hot chow....living in the green zone or wherever the f*ck you were living...having BBQ.

    It's hard to believe we're in the same Army.

    Life must be nice as a REMF.

    At least I've got this much......I didn't stay in the rear.....AND COMPLAIN ABOUT IT!!!!!

    ....you wuss.

  • no complaining, just a different side.

    does it make you feel good to make random rude comments? perhaps so if you took the time to make them. oh well. good luck with all of your hostility.

  • POG

  • please change your MOS to 11b.then post a video...

  • Pathetic POGs disgrace their uniform.Probably never saw action. All pieces of shit

  • everyone needs to keep in mind this footage is of the soldiers downtime and just a few snippits of their actual work day. believe it or not it takes some office people to keep the operation over there up and running. not everyone is outside the wire kicking down doors or rebuilding schools. this video is merely a glance at life in iraq, and if anyone lacks the intellect to realize the picture is much larger than there truly is no hope for america. 3 min and 16 sec cannot represent 6 years.

  • Y'all are taking this way too seriously. Coming from a prior-service member myself, I believe the intent of this vid was to highlight the different ways they sought morale while waiting for the action. Just cuz you don't see them in the trenches doesn't mean they're not serving an absolutely necessary purpose over there. The U.S. Military is the best machine in the world. Believe me, with the training they go through to get where they are, they're entitled to kittens and videogames(w/sombraros!)

  • Thank you for the completely logical comment. The sombraro salutes you.

  • this is the army, not the marines, thats why there is no action

  • The statement- speaking volumes for the one who posted is judgment. Judgment is superiority and I did no judging. I am also a young lady and you are neither of my parents. How is this a slap in the face anyway?

  • Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. No one is entitled to judge. How do you know this hasn't helped families with soldiers there now? Maybe it has helped a family who has lost to know that their soldier had friends and family with them. That even though they weren't completely happy there, they weren't 100% misberable all the time either. It's ok not everyone likes it. Not ok, that you feel superior enough to judge. Ever.

  • This just goes to show how retarded the National Guard is and why no one can stand having them attatched to the real army...

  • This is freaking great. I love you Betty.

  • Your land? You live in the UK!

  • Kareem are you Iraqi?

  • Damn it! They killing US-Soldiers in the streets of the UK ? Retard !

  • So if theres no war, why are so many being killed...

  • OMG all u stupid people, think that the war in iraq is for money. That may be what started it but, it is serving the poor not the rich. They only show the negatives of the war, like vietnam. They don't show the Iraqies worshipping the soldiers for being there. Atleast it's not like Vietnam where we hated the returning soldiers.
