  • fake commandos, I heard only royal marines are the proper ones,

  • @robin644 They have completed the All Arms Commando Course (The same course royal marines do), they also earn the green beret, the right to wear the commando dagger on their uniform and are able to serve within 3 commando brigade (Just like royal marines), why wouldn't they be 'proper' commandos?

  • whoah! some scarily familiar faces in this vid!!!!

  • to my fellow shipmates- served in 59 and now serve with 131- their TA version. Any sapper out there should try the AACC not only will you feel proud to wear a green lid but also it will help your career path in the Regular Army. Plus we are one of few units within the corps who hold a reunion- that's what i'm talking about- you forge friends for life in 59 or now 24 Cdo Regt RE

  • Never met a yank that could finish our training course Paris Island sucks

  • I Came off after final exercise just 5 days before the main test..anwz i enjoyed it..wanna try again..

  • 59 the best and most challenging

  • So when you in 59 Commando Engineers do you do more of the soldiering side of things?

  • @CRC1770 everybody in the royal engineers may have to serve as an infantry soldier if needed, but 59 commando engineer regiment serve alongside the royal marines so yes they may do more. they are taught more advanced soldiering skills on the commando course

  • how do u volunteer for this? im goin in RE as a driver in december starting my basic. id like to do this when iv passed out and shit, do u need be hand picked or what?

  • @rhyoul first you do phase 1, then phase 2 combat engineering and then your trade which will be your driving course then you can volunteer to go on the all arms commando course

  • Can anyone here tell me if army college is funded by the government or do you have to put yourself thru it. I was wanting to become an apprentice joiner, but couldn't get an apprenticeship, so I did a week of army work experience in Penicuik, Edinburgh and now thinking of royal engineers as carpenter

  • @GraaY94  You sorted yet !!?? I live near penicuik, I am also ex army, and ex 3 BAS as a REME Tech

  • Comment removed

  • @FELIXjk007 Yes I was at Dover 1978.

  • @philcoool just missed you, buddy. I was in the 85 intake. ( what a shower ) Remember that bloody Heartbreak Hill behind the base? Goddamn! Ran that bitch till I puked and then ran it again and again for getting caught pissed in the Dover Tavern and fighting with the Wooden Tops from the road :) aah good times *wipes a tear*

  • john macaleese from the sas was in 59 commando for any who dont know who he is hes the legend who stormed the iranian embassy :) i want to join this unit but got to do all the other stuff first like basic and combat engineer phase 2

  • @macky111222 stick with it macky. you'll get there. all the square bashing and beastings are worth it when you get the green and go 59. nothing will ever look the same again. best reg on the face of this earth mate

  • I'm a US Marine and that school looks like a month of pure suck. Met a few of you guys overseas and lots of respect to you!

  • A little exercise.

  • Yeah, but I want to be REAL commando so ill join the royal marines commando, as its their dagger and their beret.

  • @fartypantsuk 59 commando is more gruelling than royal marines. engineer commandos carry more equipment

  • @fartypantsuk i spent 6 months with the training team @ 59,we had god knows how many ppl drop out thru injuries alone ,so when you're dragging your sorry ass thru Peters pool at 7am on a Saturday morning,just remember the engineers have all ready done their trng and are doing the course to serve with the CDO brg,because dick wads like you can't build a bridge or blow a mine field,or supply your water for a showers block in camp.

    Good on ya ;)

  • @ scouse21 way back , in the 1960s there was REME serving 3 Cdo bde right up until the R M lost their Lynx.

    these aircraft spanner wankers, then did the R M course, there was No all arms course.

  • SEA HATS

  • Why don't all of you ,silly,mickey-mouse talking Yankie and some British fucking assholes,shut the fuck up.Firstly,the Royal Engineers have had a commando corps,since WW2,when the old British Army Commandos merged disbanded and merged with other sections of the army and navy.Secondly,a few of those poor bastards died in Norway,during the mission to destroy that nazi hydro-electric plant,in Norway-by means of death in their gliders and at the hands of the Gestapo.Commando+engineer=soil­d career.

  • My bro was 59 and I couldn't do it!! I was a "softy"....mechanic in the REME LOL I got to sleep in a bed built into my 434................comfy or what!! ha ha ha

  • Fair play to the 59 boys they are top blokes.

    I was with 9 Para SQN.

  • i was ex 59 myself phil cameron left i 1984 we were all engineers first , we and the rest of the forces do a good job past present no need to argue who is best not many carears you put your life on the line bless all those who have fell in combat

  • Yes Its the Engineers 59 commando. Its What Me Dad Did. Dont Act Know If This Vid Is Genuine Tho So I Aint Really Answered Your Question lol

  • is this acctually the enganeers

    please tell me

  • @jongo7050 yes

  • my dad is ex 59 commando

  • is the course any different for officers?

  • yeah tarzan assault course need to be done quicker, 9 miler needs to be done quicker, endearuns course done quicker and the 30 mile yomp across dartmoore needs to be done 1 hour quicker!

  • Apparently the difference in the time frame assinged to non officers and officers during the AACC, is very minimal. The only exception is the 30 mile yomp.

  • guess you have the same idea as me then?

    ;)

  • Lads is there really any need for all the arguing you are all fighting for the same country end!!!!!!!!

  • better to cam up our toothbrushes than shove them up your fuckin arse ??? i bet the twat that wrote that is a retarded grunt or queer RN cabbadge head

    it doesnt matter wat fuckin course u do we all do the same thing at the end of the.

    get over it you womens play thing .

  • 4 starters u sad sapper cunts go spend 400 on kit that u dnt need and gocam up ur toothbrushs u sad bastards wots all that bout? GEEKS

  • what, is it wif Royal Engineers, that they mouth of,,,,,, Para this Commando that,,,, like they are regulars to both, Forces, K Fact,, Long before any Sapper got on a Commando course, REME did it, in the 60s, and the Gunners did it too, Lympstone,,. also The Re s have a low count in P Co, where as The R Sigs and REME been there from day 1, So R E s Wind yer Fuckin Neck in

  • winston churchill needed and idea for elite men in WW2. the commando idea came from a royal engineers officer. and sappers, reme, sigs and infantry been passing since the 40s and 50s so wind yr neck in

  • who put this vidio together

  • ACDC hells bells

  • Just thought id say gd luk to spr's wilson, austin, madge, dawson lets hope we all pass the courtse and become green berets! hurrah! spr holt

  • Served with both 59 and 9, both fantastic and both Paras and Commandos are brilliant but after the Iran incident glad i was an Army commando than RM!!! For face sake.

  • Paras Commandos look at the fecking title they ROYAL ENGINEER COMMANDOS which means they are a lot better than normal Paras andCommandos and RECCE Tp get jump pay

  • paras get paid more than marines because they jump out of planes.

  • I was in the USMC and had manuvers with seals marine recon, aussie troops but the ROK marines in Korea made all of them look like little kids playing army in the back yard. If i knew those guys were looking for me I would run screaming like a little girl with freddy kroger chasing her. One day our they blew thier whistling telling us to go to our areas and we watched the roks put a man in front of our area about 2ooyards and whooooope this guy with a whip for stealing some ladies chicken

  • come on boys stop tittle tattling, you know

    the monkeys will come n get ya in the end .

    exemplo ducemus (if i remember right) .

    never was much good at latin class

    all troops best of luck whoever you are

  • soz if that offended any decent (real) commandos

  • atae4 then spent the 60 s sorting yer sorry arses out for you, on land & sea, atae, HMS Intrepid, & Fealess were Army owned manned by Royal Engineers as yer coxwains Royal Signals as yer Electronic Comms specialist, oh and REME, the guys that kept your Helicopters, and Hovercraft working, not to for get other REME (all done Lympstone ) that kept your ground vehicles maintained, yer Weapons tip top. what did the RN do for you on ships? Navigate, Uh Huh. that what the R N did be Fisheads

  • Awwe,atae4 Yer 41 and No doubt all beer Gut, Bless You Babes :) K have a seat beside me, for a moment, Gonna tell You a true story, It was the Army that created Commandos, way back ,when the Booties were looking for a mission in life, we gave you 1,, 40 42 45, then you needed a Command structure, we gave you that also 3 Cmdo Bde, way back in the 1960s Army dudes, whipped out of their units, No pre training, Like arrive Thurday night Lympstone, 8 weeks later passed the Comanndo Test.

  • Ha Ha! my point is..any one can pass the 'commando course' you just need determination and a good level of fitness! but to be a royal marines commando you have to have a brain!!you're just a dumbass pongo that didn't pay attention at school so you joined the army along with all the other retards.Army commandos were disbanded because you were shit! do your home work properly dickhead,the commandos were tri service in the 2nd world war not just army.

  • HEY ATAE4!! tell every1 y the commandos don't have to do p company to get there para wings!! ok i will tell them. commandos kept failing p coy and it embarrassed the top brass. the army felt sorry for them so they let them go strait into there jumps. we join the army cause we don't wana be a fagot navy boy

  • Their not there, straight not strait 2 n's in wanna and 2g's in faggot!That's why you're in the army..because you are thick as shit!!

  • or, it could be it only takes us 2 weeks!

  • Hmmm,

    You're a knob mate. Same entry scores for RM and RE, so don't even start the intelligence debate. I'm very aware that thhe Marines were made to look very stupid recently by ...The RAF Regt!!!!!!!You fucking mongs!!!!!!That's priceless, and with the Paras watching too. I believe that they were very unimpressed, as was everyone else in attendance. Loudmouth wankers. HA HA ROCKAPES ARE BETTER THAN MARINES.

  • Maybe next time then, they can fight the next war we have! Oh that's right they can't because no one else has got the capability or is good enough!!

  • I'm looking for someone who was based at Chivenor with the Marines around 1996/1997, he went to Norway in Jan 97. His name is Darren 'Col' Collier from Bicester and would be around 34 now. Last I heard he was leaving the Marines & moving to London to work around 2001.

    If anyone knows any info about him I'd be so grateful, please mail me. Been looking for him for a while now!

  • Paras or Commando, both the envy of the free world.

  • Lol, same old same old. Paras v Commando's. Both tough as fuck, stubborn as fuck, more than likely driunk as fuck. This rivalry's been about as long as their regiments have been around. No one else around to fight they will fight each other. I am Royal Engineers. You Paras and Commando's DEMAND respect. I give you lads that.

  • Agree with above!

  • You lot make me laugh! you've all got a massive chip on your shoulder about being a 'commando' if the army are so fuckin good,why then, is it always royal that gets sent to do proper jobs while you lot come in afterwards and clean up? i've worked at logs, and for a bootneck its the worst draft in the world but its the best for you lot! you're all just a bunch of wannabes that give bootnecks a bad name!!

  • Right fuckwit, If you had served more than 5 minutes, then you'll realise 59 is not CDOLOGS. You'll also be aware that RM don't go on ops without 59 (proper jobs???WTF) You can clean up your mess. I suggest you wind it in, sonny. There is a reason 3 CDO has expanded the RE contingent to a regiment within the brigade. I have worked with booty a lot and you're no better than any line infantry regiment, just better at self publicity.

  • When you've finished perce! i've been a bootneck for 18 years and there's a massive difference between us and army infantry!come to terms with it and just carry on digging our shitters!!!

  • you don't know a lot for sum1 who done 18 years you fuck wit

    up the airborne you fuckin cabbage head

  • We don't do p coy because it would be a step backwards!! Check the stats for the steeple chase from about 88-90 the royal marines came and beat all the best times!!

  • wow you know shit all about this, my bro is in the 59th, they kick the marines ass in every competitive thing there is. 59th are the best in the army.

  • Definition:Commando:a soldier specially trained to carry out raids.Origin Portuguese.Source:Oxford English dictionary.Now honestly ask yourself,when was the last time your brother or any other army 'commando' carried out a raid? apart from WW2 and 59 recce. You're not commandos,you've done a hard physical course at CTC that enables you to work for the Marines, and war isn't a competition you fucking idiot!!! Best in the Army not the forces, the Marines are, by a long mark!!!

  • they are called marine commandos, and when did they last raid?

  • The Al faw peninsula Iraq 20003!

  • @atae4 I Was there buddy with 59 1Tp, i remeber being told that blokes would drop when we arrived it was white flags are us no real dramas, u make it sound like a ww2 us and them blazing at each other, since then i served in Afghan Op herric 9 along side 45 Cdo we worked hard not just on camp/FOB maintaience be that electrics, water or construction but every patrol booty took 59 were there and we took hits the same, we sweated and bleed cried and laughed alongside each other. be a brother!

  • lol ye and paras r called paratroopers when did they do there last jump into battle?

  • @atae4 Commando is a Boer word, not Portuguese, Yes we may have done a course at CTC and are entitled to wear the COVETED Green Beret and wear the Cdo Dagger on our left arm.

    Yes both the SAS and the Parachute Regiement came out of the World War Two Commando's.

    I met some execellent Sappers in both 9 and 59 but I must admit I had some good memories of Condor Troop

  • atae4! i want proof ur a commando cause i think your full of shit! commandos don't talk like that, there good bunch of lads cause iv worked with them. I think if u are a commando ur a gobby little red ass who gets smacked about by ur troop

  • Falklands-Royal, Iraq-Royal, I don't remember seeing any paras in Basra! The last operational jump-Royal! do some research you pongo twat!! God is airbourn.....because he failed the commando course.

  • in the falklands it was the paras that moved in hard and fast, the marines were alot slower, and it wasnt them who raised the first union flag, it was the paras

  • they were both there they yomped it together and the flag was lifted by the paras yes but both were there, get your facts right they both attacked port Stanley in different groups and there competitiveness made them extraordinary warriors

  • look, marines are no where near as good as paras, end of

  • there both different but at fighting there nigh on equal marines are more amphibious assaults, aswell as standard duties whilst paras are more drop into location and standanrd duties, also just been looking it up theres a new l85 on trial hopefully be out when i sign on

  • paras are no where near as good as 59!!

  • yea your abviously fkn dillusional you pongo idiot. paras are jus a load of fkn gob shites who shout their mouths off because they passed a 3 week course and wear a beret the colour of a used tampon. i have a friend in the paras and even he admitted they dnt do ne thing different from normal regiments when on ops. but he said that bootnecks do get the better jobs. get ur fukin facts straight.

  • @bh342 Used tampon? Isnt that the Fusiliers?

  • fkn right m8. good effort.

  • To be a Marine! you must attend! and pass!

    Band Camp!

    what instrument you play?

    teehee (Ex Para RE)

  • for fuck sake stop all this arguguing i sympahise with both sides of this argument, but isnt the bigger picture that were all part of the same thing, which is the British Military and you should all be proud.

  • Jakemeister = craphat

  • Better to be a craphat than to have no support, next thing you will be complaing that no one supports the troops. whats the point when you have no respect for your brothers in arms.

  • Jakemeister remember everyone does their basic training in the Army. Then they specialize into their chosen jobs which adds more weeks to the training. you just stick to your grunt work and leave the intelligent soldiering to the all arms boys. After all we did your course and tests quite easily but I bet you couldn't do our work.

    By the way I was in 2 Commando Troop. 29 EOD SQN. I bet you didn't even serve. In fact I bet your real name is Walter Mitty. (Look him up)

  • lol jakemeister talks of not being commando unless u do the 'full course' the 32 week course turn u frm civvi to commando infantry man the aacc turs u frm soldier (wheather it b engineer, artillery etc) to commando soldier.people hu go on the aacc have already had the turning frm civvi to soldier bit done. the same applies for the para course

  • Jakemeister,,,, Grow Up, FFs oh! scouse 21,,,,, REME did this,,,, they all got green lids,, circa 1965, long before the R E s could spell Commando

  • Jakemeister14 pull your head out yer arse. If Royal are so Dynamic how come year in year out the Army destroy you on a 1 to 1 basis in the interservice Boxing & Rugby etc.These teams are made up of what you would call CRAPHATS.If you were that dynamic you would wipe the floor. You are obviously very disillusioned or a wind up merchant.

  • so does this vid show the all arms commandoe course or the pre selection for it?

  • Soz, meant 59 (ooops!!) LOL

  • My Brother was in 50 Ind Cmmdo Sqn (I'm ex REME) and why shouldn't he be proud to wear the green beret of the RMC? He did the training and EARNED it!!Take care lads serving all over the WORLD and come back safe!

  • its the same as p company. they are not a para in any instance. to be a para or a commando u have to do the whole thing. im not looking to argue with anyone but this is how its seen by alot of marines and army.

  • the commando tests are not about just doing them after 12 weeks its about doing them after 30 weeks of hard sleep depriving training when u aint got the energy, to dig deep and do the tests. AACC is piss to the full course

  • yes but the first 15weeks of training is all fuckin shitty admin and a few exercises anyway. and on the AACC your not exactly fresh when you do the commando tests are you!

  • you are compared to the the nods who come through training. im sorry but yeah ok hat off they do the course but ur not a commando at all or commando trained. i have alot of friends that are 29 and 59 and they admit they are not commando or commando trained.

  • shame coz anyone can rock up and do the all arms course all it is..is 12 weeks try the full whack 32 of hardly and sleep regular gym and bottom feild thrashings thrashings in the field yomping till u wanna die then doing a section up to troop attack (by now u feel like u have died) and then yomping back. .

  • <<< has respect for the R E s,,,,but that clip, Nah! looked like a summer outing, Many Volunteer,, Few Chosen ,,, FFs give me a break here !

  • id like to see you pass the all arms commando course and get your green beret!

  • Good to see it's still ninja.

  • Utrinque Paratus.

  • what a squadren i cnt to get my chance to become one of thm!

  • Cool vid...shame u don't get to do all of that with TA ha ha

  • im tryin for these - got my physical up in glencourse next week for the royal engineers, once i've done my phase three i'm goin for the commandoes!
