@GamingNetworkShow "Seriously I have never heard of 838 Americans Defeating 5,000 British"
If you think that is unbelieveable...look up Gallipoli, where the outnumbered Turks killed nearly half a million commonwealth troops. Or Singapore where 30,000 Japs captured 120,000 british commonwealth in one day.
Isandlwanna another good example
Spion Kop
30,000 Brits vs 8,000 Boers = Boer victory. Battles of Elands River Blood River Poort Bakenlaagte Groenkop Tweebosch...British defeats
@HandzarMitraljezac Have you ever seen those beaches? As an australian ive been there to pay hommage to out ANZAC diggers. 20 grannys with air rifles could hold that position for a year.
It has NOTHING to do with where troops are from and everything to do with logistics, position so on and so forth. All this " one military is better than another" bullshit has to stop. It's usualy those with little to NO military experience at all making the retarded comments.
These such events such as the defeat of the British during the Anglo Turk war...Anglo Boer war, and Anglo Dutch wars arent well known because UK is a nation of narcissists.
You have accomplished what? In 1917, the British lost 2 million KIA or WIA having won 10km of ground from the Germans.
1939-1942, UK troops were pretty much in headlong retreat from Norway to N. Africa.
veterans of the napoleonic war (british army) tried invading the southern flank of the US in 1815 and failed, eventough it outnumbered the Americans 3 to 1. There was over 4-5,000 british troops deployed to New Orleans...and only 58 US Marines and 780 US regulars. The death toll was 2000 british casualties and only 13 americans killed.
The might of the british armada at Baltimore also failed to take Ft McHenry. Failed twice at Sacketts harbor
Seeing your comments about afghan and the USMC having to sort it out it not true at all the ground the British held wasn't much at all but we held it with what little we had, then when we passed it of to the USMC they flooded the area with an extra 20,000 troops to gain an extra 15 miles which yeah is impressive. But dude unless your just anti British then fair play but the USA and UK fight together but so does most of Europe all help each other out because where allies.
The British troops in Helmand outnumber the Americans, the USMC is outnumbered yet they and the ANA are conducting operations deepest into S. Helmand, taking back ground lost since 2007.
It was -1,000 of 3/5 BN Marines that pacified Sangin...while 2-3,000+ RMs and UK infantry couldnt do it in 4 yrs and after 100 KIA
@HandzarMitraljezac uk troops try not to kill civilians or blue on blue......usa shoot and whoop........i want the british to kill taliban with less rules of engagement. you lose credibility showing no respect for uk troops, usa troops on here have respect when they have served with them...........arrogance is never a admirable trait
@HandzarMitraljezac Royal Marine Commandos (of which I used to be one, 97-08) are simply the best pal. toughest cookies out there. end of. Much respect to the US troops i've worked with though, they were ok. Shame people like you give them a bad name, imagine one of your fellow Americans being an embaressment the way you are. tsk tsk tsk.
Oh by the way 30,000 japs didnt capture 120,000, talk about over fudging the figures there. Lets talk vietname ;-)
@HandzarMitraljezac I only left the RMC back in late 2008 and we lost no ground in Helmand. In fact, lets get this right, we took all of that ground in the first place, us,we were REQUESTED to assume control of ops there due to the US DoD's frutrations at their own militaries lack of results. When you lads resumed control of Sangin, Helmand...you PULLED out of all the FOB's us Brits had established and now we are all (Brit and US) having to try and take it back again.
there is no agenda right now to take any of the FOBs back. From what we've learned in OIF is, that its better to be roaming around disrupting enemy operations than to go onto the defensive. Thats exactly what happened in Basrah
@HandzarMitraljezac Look, as i've said, I like the Americans...well the troops at least, not lying little gobshites like you. Facts are facts lets not beat around the bush. YOU LOT have relinquished all the ground us Brits seized since we took control of ops in Helmand, especially FOB's in the town of Sangin. And now because you gave it all up we are having to fight to regain control of it. If you're gonna lie make a better job of it. I cant stand people who make shit up.
The 27 FOBs were destroyed, they wont be re occupied. US Marines arent defensive in nature. We've seen this in Vietnam. They dont dig in and let the enemy come to them. High casualties during Op Moshtarak and Khanjar are clear indicators of this.
The "better military" claims were made by your civilians, I being a historian have to set them straight.
training? please dont even go there. We took Iraq faster than Hitler took France. We're not the ones that retreated out of Basrah pleading the militia for a safe withdrawal.
The casualty rate in Helmand is twice higher for the British than it is for the Americans. Look up the Helmand campaign. A good 10% of UK KIA is due to Op Telic friendly fires.
British county regts couldnt stand in the way of the japs in the pacific at Singapore...the USMC mauled the Japs in 42
because all these comments have reached as far back as ww2 and the american patriots are saying ''we won the war'' which was a load of bollocks, i must the good old russians taught the nazis a lesson when they tried taking russia, i the end it left the nazis with 100,000 wermahct against a russian force millions strong so kudos to them :)
@HDzDucK If the Americans didn't join the European theatre, the UK would be fine, as the Dig for Victory campaign was going strong and the RAF was holding up well, and the Russians would still have marched on Berlin and destroyed everything, almost single-handedly winning the war.
The US helped, yes, but they didn't play much of a major part. Perhaps they would have done without the Russians, but they would have still needed the other allies to succeed.
False. the british death toll in Helmand is 2x larger than that of the US troops. 249 UK KIA to 100 or so USMC KIA. Despite this the USMC has lead the offensives to take back territory lost to the taliban since 2007.
The training for a USMC Rifleman is 28wks...4 wks shorter than basic RM training.
Training and selection for recon Marine is 6 months minus para, dive and recon schools.
@HandzarMitraljezac Stop the bullshit we are fighting out there together our doctors are keeping your soldiers alive... it's Americas war, we are there to help, the British are in Helmand which is a very fucked up place to be... Support the troops and stop talking shit on youtube about whos fucking better! (The Brits are better btw) :o)
better trained? once again...the USMC runs a full 3 miles..the RMs do 1.5 mile runs
the USMC shoots out to 500yds and 300yds with night optics.
the entire british military shoots out to 300m max...tell me how the fuck theyre better trained
your military has not made an impact on our wars. The war in Iraq was won by the US army, USMC and Iraqi Army. The IA lost 16,000 KIA fighting our war, you did jack shit except loose basrah
@HandzarMitraljezac no the RM do 1.5 miles x3 in the best times possible and also do 10 mile marches and 30 miler, RM training is 32 weeks long, and why does it matter we are both fighting on the same side and i believe anyone who gives their life our countries to be free deserves respect no matter how better or worse their regiment is
The USMC has the battle of Tenaru and Guadalcanal to show for 1942...
Royal Marines have Op Agreement (100% KIA or POW) Dieppe and the Singapore withdrawal.
The USMC does not have a surrender to the iranians or argies on their record like the RMCs do. US 3/6 Marines pacified Sangin in 1yr recently after the RMs couldnt do in 4 yrs and after 100 KIA, despite that there were 4,000 RMs there and less than 1,000 USMs in comparison
@HandzarMitraljezac there is around 2 million US soldiers in total 200,000 are US marines UK has 500,000 soldiers and has around 20,000 royal marines it means every 10 US soldiers there is 1 marine and every 25 british soldiers there is 1 royal marine and british soldiers have a harder training than the USMC in general its wierd why USMC use so much air support? royal marines have the hardest training in NATO after that its the dutch marines then french marines your shit, go invent more "facts".
@TheGunner1324 just to correct you, there are around 196,000 in the entire british forces, 8700 of which are royal marines, not 20,000, which means the USMC has more in their corps than we do in our entire force, but our british army chef goes through more fitness training and battle training than a general marines infanrty man, and royal marines do have the hardest training in NATO yes but second if the french foreign legion.
harder training? please go run your 1.5 mile PFT on your own and never tell me you have it harder you fucking pussies. Try a full 3 miles, and learn to shoot beyond 300m.
The truth behind the numbers is that we can afford our size financially. We even bought off the last of your harriers some years ago. The whole of Europe is bankrupting and youre trying to make a point of your puny little military being better trained on a shitty budget.
@TheGunner1324 "royal marines have the hardest training in NATO "
No, the official bragging right says "longest infantry training" And its longer only be 2wks in comparison how long it takes to become a USM 0311 Rifleman.
We have 40,000 elite Infantry, 4,000 Recon and 7,000 MARSOC Marines. Not even mentioning artillery and armored Marines. It takes 2 yrs of schools just to become a Recon Marine, and only 32wks to become an RMC.And still you people cant dive or jump out of planes.
@HandzarMitraljezac Erm im afriad the royal marines is the toughest and longest training, non special forces that is. Its extremely tough especially its 30 mile run at the end, the assault courses, even more running, the fieldcraft and the fitness tasks. 99.9 per cent need not apply. You know what that means? The marines will only accept the 0.1 per cent, so dont waste there time. My brother was entered into a course of 32 teenagers to see what the training was like. 8 passed
0.1% percent? Are you that gullible? The RMC course has a drop on request system. You can leave whenever. You get holidays off, weekends are also when training stops.
The RM course is the longest infantry course in NATO but not the hardest. Its only 2 wks longer than the US Marine basic grunts course and 4 wks longer than basic US army infantryman;s OSUT trng.
@rebelboy281 There is nothing gullible about it. If you saw 'the marines will only accept the 0.1 per cent' part you would know what I meant. The marines are willing to only accept that amount to pass. Of course they get holidays and breaks, I didnt say anything that said they didnt :L. And I also said that the rmc training was the hardest NON SPECIAL FORCES training. Whats harder then that? Army rangers? Fuck no. Much longer, is the longest and is the hardest non special forces

Caen was the first of examples that US commanders couldnt trust british troops get stuff done on time. To make things worse, troops defending Caen were from a new SS Hj Division....kids.
British quality was evident at Arnhem...Both American Abn divisions take their objectives and the British end of the spectrum ends in 1.500 dead and 7.500 taken prisoner.
you dont have the aircraft to begin with, the last of your carriers were sold to the USN, and now if the Argies tried taking back the Falklands you couldnt do shit.
UK is now next to Uganda on the world scale...USA is still top dog
@HandzarMitraljezac By the way, China are the new top dogs, you couldnt do them back in Korea and you wont be able to now. Also the falklands? get real we have a load of Eurofighter Typhoons there the argies wont do shit. We have two of the worlds biggest aircraft carriers (CVF) coming in over the next couple of years, we have the Taranis (might wanna youtube that) and a host of other bits. Besides lets get this right you lot cancelled the F-22, you are 8 trillion in debt.
Sometimes, I think to myself, how nice the world would be if the Americans lost the Mexican war, and Mexico owned Texas. With it's many millions of dollars worth of gold and oil.
Damn shame. Americans are way too cocky.
My house is older than their entire country. Pahahaa
You can't really compare the Royal Marines with the USMC. The USMC are a massive bog standard infantry unit. Royal Marines are much smaller and an elite infantry unit. If they were American they would be known as Special Forces although this is incorrect.
No the RMs would never qualify as an SF force in the US. They dont do diving, amphib recon or even jump out of planes. Key 3 points that qualify the US rangers and US Marine recon as a special force.
The RMs are light infantry.
In the 1800 and 1900 the RMs outnumbered the USMs by 10x, who was elite then?
1854- USMs are called to aid the failed RM landing at Peiho, China
1900 -USMs lead the RMs in an attack outside of the legation walls
Wish people would shut the fuck up about the USMC this is a tribute to royal marines, heres a fact for you;
RM go through the hardest training of any none special forces unit, lasting 32 weeks, USMC boot camp lasts 13 weeks (less than the basic british infantry training)
training doesnt mean shit. So stop bringing it up or I'll bring up the world's first military defeat of the 21st century = Basrah and the British pull out.
Do you honestly believe that Marines only get 13 wks of training total?
training doesnt mean shit in a military force?? basra wasnt a defeat but a withdrawl, we didnt need to be there and the locals didnt want us there so what was the point in staying? besides at least we fight our own wars, whens the last time america went to war alone vietnam? and no i dont think thats the end of usmc training but do u think that the 32 weeks are the end of the royal marines?
Yea vietnam wasnt a defeat either, just like Basrah...it was just a withdrawal. According to you. The Basrah defeat down south was a huge stab in the back for all coalition forces in Iraq. 2007 was the year of the surge, a last ditch effort and you fucked it up.
32 wks of training doesnt mean the royal marines dont have the highest surrender and defeat rate of any Marine for on the planet. Falklands to Iran.
Vietnam was a defeat, its completely diffrent to basrah (a city) u conceded too many casualties, were forced out and it was over ran. which is why it is known as the one america lost.
And how do u work that final bit out? the RM have only surrended/ lost less than a handful of times with a much higher success rate and much much lower casualty rate than the usmc
Vietnam = 58,000 US KIA compared with 1.6 million communist KIA = defeat?
Somme = 450,000 british kia w/ 5 miles of german ground won = victory?
USA looses 55,000 citizens on the highways...vietnam was a skirmish for us. Opposition to the war made us withdraw slowly, just like the Suez canal crisis is a british defeat.
RM vs USMC.... no, 3/4 of all battles between the USMC and RMs between 1776 and 1815 were USMC victories. I can name every ship action and raid. from Nassau to Banks Island and Sybil to Baltimore 1815, Sackets harbor and New Orleans 1815. All USMC victories alongisde the US.A.
1854 Peiho - USMs bail out RMs after a failed landing
1900 Peking - USMs lead RMs
1950 Chosin - USMs lead RMs
2010 Helmand - USMC in command of all Marine forces in area.
2010 Helmand - USMC in command of all Marine forces in area.............that is not true, US marines have never controlled the royal marines out in afgan or iraq. i know this for fact seeing as i have done countless tours with the usmc and they have been told to answer to us, we got briefed not to take orders from anyone who wasnt a rm and usmc got orders to do exactly what our sergents said when they said it
@HandzarMitraljezac and by the way i am a royal marine, 2 1/2 years and still serving, and usmc have never lead royal marines in any battle EVER, and the 3/4 victories you say is bullshit aswell, you cant call it a victory if you send half your entire marine force to battle 5000 royals lol, and just to clear up you say you kicked our ass in the war of independence, but it took your whole branch of mil and other mils to take down 1/4 of the british hahaha some fuckin victory!
What I stated above is factual history. Those dates are well recognized by both RM and USM historians.
3/4 of naval engagements durng the war of 1812 are USN victories, the USS Constitution accounted for nearly 1/3 of those victories. All 3 Brit landings were also failures.
4,000 RMCs were at Sangin for 4 yrs and achieved nothing until 1,000 Marines from 3/5 and 3/4 War horse came to unfuck that AO.
The war of Independence was our victory. You lost to us, meaning you aint shit.
@HandzarMitraljezac the war of independence was not a victory for your country seeing as it took america, the spanish, french and dutch to beat not even half our army seeing as most of our army were out fighting real wars then, and also 500 royal marines held 14 compounds in helmand when we first got to afgan, the compounds were held for 4 years, and then we let usmc take over and they lost 6 compounds in 8 months and half the battalion got fucked up! 2 rmc's held off 200 taliban in 2006 :)
sigh....stop reading wikipedia. Spain had no direct impact on the colonies during the war. The pivotal battles that turned the tide of the war were won by the cont. Army at Trenton, Princeton and Saratoga. The war was over as soon as Burgoyne surrendered. The final death nail came with France in 1780 when they finally decided to take an active part. The French only sped up the war's end. The colonies only had 3 million citizens and still beat the 2nd largest empire at that time.
@HandzarMitraljezac i havent been reading wikipedia you twat, i do my research, and britain wasnt the second largest empire at that time it was first!, and also as i stated last time, we were fighting countless wars during them times, we didnt send our entire force out coz we couldnt! we sent over a quarter of our force and america and countless other helpers just beat us, you americans are so fuckin patriotic even thouth you dont have a clue about any other countries history
You werent fighting countless wars in the first 5 yrs of the US revolution. Only in 1780 when the French navy started stretching british troops from N Africa to Calcutta did you start feeling the strain. The tide of the 1770s war turned at Trenton and Saratoga, 100% w/o french help. The war started because we wouldnt pay for you fighting the French and Indian war...eventough we started the war on your behalf.
@HandzarMitraljezac apart from what they tell you, they tell you that you have the most battle experience in the world but yet you are one of the youngest countries in the world, britain was fighting wars 1000s of years before you even existed! britain has the proudest war history of all time seeing as yes we have lost some wars but NO major ones unless you go back in to the 1300's, and i dont know why you even say you won ww1 and ww2, ww1 you wernt in the whole thing and ww2 was a joint effort!
Actually, France has the best fighting record in Europe. UK was a minor player before the Span. Armada sailed into English waters. All white Americans are Europeans that claim lineage back to the Roman era, many of them can trace back to the Roman times when Hadrian pushed into Scotland, taking all of modern day England.
The total number of battles GB (+allies) fought and won against the French is 60. The French have 64 victories over you...fighting alone. Google it.
500 RMs??? where the fuck do you get your facts from??
A 100 men is nowhere near enough to hold firewatch on the walls of a single FOB. That figure was 5,000. A defensive posture in Helmand province is nothing to be brag about. 3/5 Marines did more on the offensive in 2008-10 than the entire UK forces did in 4 yrs. The strategy was changed with the transfer of the USMs, it worked, and now UK troops are under US command for a good reason. So no more stalemates happen
@HandzarMitraljezac UK forces are NOT under US command! i have been to afgan...TWICE and not once have we been out with US marines or taken orders or got given command off the US. the Royal Marines take orders off their own commanders, we were given orders to specifically ignore any order any US force gave us, we work off our own back, and yeah you might have made more offensive action more than our entire force thats because your marines are larger than the whole of british forces put together
@JodyHallUK "we were given orders to specifically ignore any order any US force gave us"
your ass hurts. No officer would want to create that type of international confusion when operating. That kind of attitude only leads to friendly fire. If I cant see you on the Blue force tracker, you'll get an A-10 up your tea sipping ass. The USMC still has a numerically inferior presence in Helmand, but yet we're the ones conducting most of the offensive ops far south. While 70% of RMCs are in Helmand
i really want to become i Royal Marine, im gonna apply when i'm 20 so i have enough time to get as fit as possible and why on every military video theres always british and americans fighting over who's the best? im not gonna say we should love eachother coz we're allies but give it a fucking break! also the music on this sucks, it would be alot better if it was heavy metal like bullet for my valentine or slipknot.
yea history of US Marines always defeating the Royal Marines.
From 1778 Carrickfergus, 1779 Banks Islands to the USMs shooting down the leaderships aboard HMS Drake and Java, to the failed RM landing at Peiho in 1854 when the USMs came charging to help the RMs....
or the 1900 case when US Marines led the charge outside of legation walls at Peking with the Royal Marines behind them.....or when US Marines sheltered the RMCs in the rear at Chosin in 1950 from real fighting.
@xMetalWangx fuck u whos got the SAS us you yank shut the fuck up !!!! i bet 10 to 20 sas lads would easy take on a few 100 us marines need a say more :D
@HandzarMitraljezac the operation in libya was for the SAS to be captured they wanted to talk to them dont ask why but it was there intentions they walked into the firing sight and like hard bastards walked right up to them then surrrenended for the diplomat to talk, US marines are not elite trained marsoc only level cities is cause they have millitary jets to utiliize and have no regard for civilian lives.
@quilmesfiesta ya know on second thought sorry for caliing your marines stupid... were allies so we fight along side each other. We both train each other, U.S.M.C. and royal marines together are unstoppable!! forgive me?
to the American mongrels commenting on this video ... if u want to shout stupid slogans then watch ur own crap that ur media is feeding you... we trained your marines... Delta Force and Navy Seals.. enough said!
it really doesnt matter who's better. if you watch the news channel you will see that now french, candian, british, and american are teaming up in libya. stop arguing because we need to stick together and defend our country's aganist those who pose a threat.
We don't comment on their videos, because it means nothing to us... sv as far as hey're concerned I think we should let them bark until they run out of breath
The USMC are regular amphibious infantry, the RMC are Commando's it's in their title, USMC aren't gd enough to be classed as Commando's. USMC train in how many conditions? RMC train in all the different ones, Desert, Arctic, Jungle,Mountain. The USMC have 13 weeks training, The RMC have 32 weeks minimum. Plus RMC have the title hardest basic training in NATO, How is USMC even close, Rangers and Seals are comparable but rangers were trained by the RMC and founded by us in ww2 USMC ARE WANK :)
@jomdhello really only 12 weeks for the US marines. Actually our royal marines is 32 weeks but still the hardest military training in the world. I'm signing up soon.
@vxphsycoxv yeah mate our standard infantry units of the British army have a longer more extensive training regime than the US special force the USMC.. Royal Marine Commandos are tough bastards that endure the world toughest training regime it was invented to push the Human body to its absolute limit no other country has a training regime like Britain that's why we produce some of if not the best fighting forces in the world today..
The British marines have proof we're the best. We owned 2/3 of the world as late as 1921. It was only after WWII that we began to lose stuff as the world was still shaken and America decided that it could bully people because it dropped a couple of nukes on Japan. We won WWI, and Britain + The USSR won WWII (Yeah, you didn't win it, Americans.) We've also defeated Afghanistan several times - A feat which you have failed + we won the falklands war. Whatchu gonna do, Amerifags?
@ShadowRSonic WoW talk about delusional.British was losing badly untill america came in to the war.If it wasnt for america it would of been only the ussr fighting from the east because germany would of already took over london.Its very sad you dont give americans credit where credit is due.Most of your military tech todays comes from america so dont bite the hand that feeds you, good ol chap.
That, my friend, is total bullshit. It is in fact YOUR technology that comes from US. We invented the radar, and we invented the jet engine that the Americans used. You would still be on piston engines if not for us, fuck, you even failed with piston engines until we got some Rolls Royce engines in your planes. The UK was taking heavy damage, true, but we were raping the fuck outta the Nazis. We kept our fight on the homefront.
@ShadowRSonic Im not talking about military tech in the 40s im talking about now.Do you really think UK would of took the west the way they did without america?? Do you really think that deep down? If so you are delusional.
But without our inventions, you would not have jet planes, nor radar, nor electric motors, nor combustion engines. Think before you speak, delusional yank fucktard.
@ShadowRSonic the jet engine was invented by Italians pre world war 2 and conduct the first flight, and the germans were the first country to use jet engine technology in a military conflict, as they did at end of WWII. Since I had to correct you on this history, you have entirely lost all credibility and your comments are now null and void.
Haha, dumbarse. The turbojet we use today in planes was invented in Britain by Frank Whittle. Don't call hundreds of credible historians (no, not me), wrong, please. It makes you look even more stupid than you already are. :)
@RockAfella73 typical ignorant yank int you mate Britain saved itself from Nazi occupation ever heard of the battle of Britain ?? where we fought off and defeated the German Air Force after that battle Hitler himself said to take Britain now would cost me the lives of men that i cannot spare to give... we saved our shores mate so show some Fucking respect to the Dead you brainwashed prick... and you guys wonder why nobody likes you your all so far up your own arses its unreal
@RockAfella73 Further more we do give Credit where its due but we are not going to give you credit for something you didn't do. and whats this about we get most our tech from the USA i think you should research more mate if at all.. its very well known that the USA and UK share their tech with one another to better their military's combat effectiveness i also believe due to your alliance with the UK you get a lot of European tech to your so deluded its gotta be a joke. peace bitch from the UK
BAE is a major player in the world. Britain is also is a leader in weapons research. but.
Britain's weapons research does not even come close to the USA's research budget. The college system has a massive research budget that is geared towards military systems.
Mate.. u can also add... that eversince the allience was formed (WWII) our casualties from friendly fires started rising dramatically... those American dickheads killed more British than enemy soldiers... not that I have a choice.. but I REALLLY wouldn't want to work with them in war...
excuse me but the royal marines played no part in making the british empire. That would be the british army. The royal navy to this day has no amphibious doctrine. You never won in Afghanistan, you lost Helmand for the 4th time. This last loss was a US intervention because you were loosing ground to the taliban surge of 2007.
The royal marines didnt take the falklands, that was the army, all the rmc did there was surrender to the argies.
@HandzarMitraljezac your history is so awefull it is a proof of the failed US educational system, we had nothing to do with the win, ok who sent more men on D-day, which country acted as a place where the allies could attack main-land europe from who actually thought in N.africa who destroyed the italian navy and captured its army, who took burma and destroyed the biggest japaneese army in south east asia? who stopped the japs and the nazi's from joining forces in the middle east?
The 8th army ran on AMERICAN OIL, the only reason rommel was defeated is because he wasnt swimming in US oil. 73,000 US troops participated in D-day. 60,000 were brits. Despite all of this 3/4 of all allied effort by 1944 was American. Please dont brag about sinking 2 italian ships. You lost an entire army on one day at Singapore, you didnt defeat anyone. The 3rd and final offensive in Burma was US led with Chinese support. Germans and japs could never meet in the Middle east
@HandzarMitraljezac 1)D-day bsupreme commander eisenhower yet voverall command was to bernard montgomery and he commanded 160,000 of the allied soldiers, we sent 83,115 troops (61,715 of them British nationality) you sent 73,000 you idiot and you forgot the US airborne around 15,000 so around 88,000 and im not counting the british watch oficer assigned to make sure US didnt fuck it up, and omaha was a fuck up you dropped to far off-land many drowned and when we told you to go further they never.
@HandzarMitraljezac 2) you sent us resources only because ours where getting bombed if US was situated where we are you would have had the same problem, if the luffwaffle never damaged our infastructure we would have been ok just like you, and im sorry we took burma you neanderfall, the forgotten army it was called retaken it was british you idiot, The British Pacific Fleet operated as a separate unit from the American task forces in the Okinawa operation.
@HandzarMitraljezac Its job was to strike airfields on the islands between Formosa and Okinawa, to prevent the Japanese reinforcing the defences of Okinawa from that direction. British forces made a significant contribution to the success of the invasion. we did alot in the pacific only most of the RN withdrew before the celebrations.
battle of caen? we lost around 50,000 soldiers and nazi's lost about the same and also lost 550 tanks, without that battle operation overlord= failed
@HandzarMitraljezac which airforce destroyed 50% of the luffwaffle, which country stopped japaneese cargo ships from getting to the jap soldiers in the pacific? which country made 2 big break throughs on the manhatten project and 1 canadian made a big break through you did nothing with the A-bomb 75% of the research was done by captured nazi scientists then 10% by brits 5% by canadians you only did around 10% and funded it.
And mate who fucked up omaha beach the battle in rhineland and italy?
haha please with the cargo ships...That is not a military action, thats raiding. US gives all credit for the space program and a bomb to the jewish scientists, they are only cloaked later on with a US citizenship. Your 10% is ...appreciated lmao
Omaha was taken, if you want to look at a fuck up...Caen set the allies behind schedule, Omaha didnt. Arnhem set us back...Omaha didnt. Battle of the Bulge was a sole US operation, 5% UK participation, you sat out the rest of the war
@HandzarMitraljezac italy? we sent more soldiers and with so little resistance how did US lose as many soldiers as they did? they were not jewish scientists most research was done by nazi researchers who later on killed them selves due to stress and seclussion by the armerican goverment.
@HandzarMitraljezac oh so the most crucial part of the war when the lufftwaffe was attacking britain, we had it all for ourselves to defend and the defining moment... the battle of britain which made the invasion of britain impossible the americans where no where to be found coz they are selfish and soon as it was won they decide to join the war properly!
@jomdhello "basic training for US Marine - 12 weeks, for Royal Marine Commando - 42 weeks. end of discussion." 1778 US Marines board and seize the HMS Drake 1779 US Marines push the Royal Marines off of Banks Island 1781 US Marines board and take Atalanta and Trepassey in One day 1812 US navy and Marines take the Cyane, Levant and captured 200+ Royal Marines 1814 Royal navy looses the plattsburg battle and the battle of lake eerie, Both end in surrender of about 300-400 RMs
type USMC into Youtube and hoorah your arse off like there is no tomorrow... just don't write crap about other forces from other countries on our videos :)
and also, i don't know what you're arguing about? who gives a shit if some dumb american loving US fanboy is saying rudeness about the British Army. we have proof we're the best, so whats the problem?
In the end, it doesn't matter where you're from, but which way your bullets are going. Nice video, love from America (even if you did pound us with that fucking tea tax 240 years ago :p)
if u were an american u would say the USMC is the best, Sempier fi and if u were French u would say the French Marines were the best, and if u were Isreali u would say the Isreali Marines are the best (Which they might be) but all Marines Are well trained naval infantry

@HandzarMitraljezac I only left the RMC back in late 2008 and we lost no ground in Helmand. In fact, lets get this right, we took all of that ground in the first place, us,we were REQUESTED to assume control of ops there due to the US DoD's frutrations at their own militaries lack of results. When you lads resumed control of Sangin, Helmand...you PULLED out of all the FOB's us Brits had established and now we are all (Brit and US) having to try and take it back again.

False. the british death toll in Helmand is 2x larger than that of the US troops. 249 UK KIA to 100 or so USMC KIA. Despite this the USMC has lead the offensives to take back territory lost to the taliban since 2007.
The training for a USMC Rifleman is 28wks...4 wks shorter than basic RM training.
Training and selection for recon Marine is 6 months minus para, dive and recon schools.

1982 Falklands. 50 Royal Marines surrender to the Argentines without firing a shot. Im sure they had a reason good enough.

No, I dont know it. But try to find the 11th Royal Marine battalion....you wont. It was destroyed at Tobruk in 1942.
1854 - RMs fail in their Peiho landing and call for the USMs
1900 Peking, USMs lead the RMs in an attack outside of the legation walls
1950 - USMs fight off 10 chinese divisions at Chosin while RMCs attached to 1st MarDiv are not manning the front lines.
1919 - Royal Marines even had a mutiny.
Thats why the USM motto is Semper Fidelis.

yea history of US Marines always defeating the Royal Marines.
From 1778 Carrickfergus, 1779 Banks Islands to the USMs shooting down the leaderships aboard HMS Drake and Java, to the failed RM landing at Peiho in 1854 when the USMs came charging to help the RMs....
or the 1900 case when US Marines led the charge outside of legation walls at Peking with the Royal Marines behind them.....or when US Marines sheltered the RMCs in the rear at Chosin in 1950 from real fighting.

do you realize that US Marines are heavy infantry and that SAS are very lightly armed scouts?
US Marines come in all shapes and sizes. A 100 LAR Marines have leveled cities in the past.
Their infantry type is also the reason they dont surrender like the RMCs in the Falklands or the SAS in Libyia.
HandzarMitraljezac 4 months ago
@HandzarMitraljezac the operation in libya was for the SAS to be captured they wanted to talk to them dont ask why but it was there intentions they walked into the firing sight and like hard bastards walked right up to them then surrrenended for the diplomat to talk, US marines are not elite trained marsoc only level cities is cause they have millitary jets to utiliize and have no regard for civilian lives.

The USMC are regular amphibious infantry, the RMC are Commando's it's in their title, USMC aren't gd enough to be classed as Commando's. USMC train in how many conditions? RMC train in all the different ones, Desert, Arctic, Jungle,Mountain. The USMC have 13 weeks training, The RMC have 32 weeks minimum. Plus RMC have the title hardest basic training in NATO, How is USMC even close, Rangers and Seals are comparable but rangers were trained by the RMC and founded by us in ww2 USMC ARE WANK :)

The British marines have proof we're the best. We owned 2/3 of the world as late as 1921. It was only after WWII that we began to lose stuff as the world was still shaken and America decided that it could bully people because it dropped a couple of nukes on Japan. We won WWI, and Britain + The USSR won WWII (Yeah, you didn't win it, Americans.) We've also defeated Afghanistan several times - A feat which you have failed + we won the falklands war. Whatchu gonna do, Amerifags?

That, my friend, is total bullshit. It is in fact YOUR technology that comes from US. We invented the radar, and we invented the jet engine that the Americans used. You would still be on piston engines if not for us, fuck, you even failed with piston engines until we got some Rolls Royce engines in your planes. The UK was taking heavy damage, true, but we were raping the fuck outta the Nazis. We kept our fight on the homefront.

@ShadowRSonic the jet engine was invented by Italians pre world war 2 and conduct the first flight, and the germans were the first country to use jet engine technology in a military conflict, as they did at end of WWII.

excuse me but the royal marines played no part in making the british empire. That would be the british army. The royal navy to this day has no amphibious doctrine. You never won in Afghanistan, you lost Helmand for the 4th time. This last loss was a US intervention because you were loosing ground to the taliban surge of 2007.
The royal marines didnt take the falklands, that was the army, all the rmc did there was surrender to the argies.

furthermore. the UK did nothing to WIN WW2.
by 1942, THE ONLY ground UK held after its 100% loss of mainland Europe and Burma and Singapore, was North Africa and its own homefront.
And the only reason N Africa was held was because of American oil.
By 1944, the US made 3x more contributions to the war effort than any of the western allies combined.
Also supplying them with all the oil, armor and lend lease weapons the needed.
1945, Uk does nothing about japan

The 8th army ran on AMERICAN OIL, the only reason rommel was defeated is because he wasnt swimming in US oil. 73,000 US troops participated in D-day. 60,000 were brits. Despite all of this 3/4 of all allied effort by 1944 was American. Please dont brag about sinking 2 italian ships. You lost an entire army on one day at Singapore, you didnt defeat anyone. The 3rd and final offensive in Burma was US led with Chinese support. Germans and japs could never meet in the Middle east

@HandzarMitraljezac 2) you sent us resources only because ours where getting bombed if US was situated where we are you would have had the same problem, if the luffwaffle never damaged our infastructure we would have been ok just like you, and im sorry we took burma you neanderfall, the forgotten army it was called retaken it was british you idiot, The British Pacific Fleet operated as a separate unit from the American task forces in the Okinawa operation.
TheGunner1324 4 months ago
@HandzarMitraljezac Its job was to strike airfields on the islands between Formosa and Okinawa, to prevent the Japanese reinforcing the defences of Okinawa from that direction. British forces made a significant contribution to the success of the invasion. we did alot in the pacific only most of the RN withdrew before the celebrations.
battle of caen? we lost around 50,000 soldiers and nazi's lost about the same and also lost 550 tanks, without that battle operation overlord= failed

@HandzarMitraljezac which airforce destroyed 50% of the luffwaffle, which country stopped japaneese cargo ships from getting to the jap soldiers in the pacific? which country made 2 big break throughs on the manhatten project and 1 canadian made a big break through you did nothing with the A-bomb 75% of the research was done by captured nazi scientists then 10% by brits 5% by canadians you only did around 10% and funded it.

haha please with the cargo ships...That is not a military action, thats raiding. US gives all credit for the space program and a bomb to the jewish scientists, they are only cloaked later on with a US citizenship. Your 10% is ...appreciated lmao
Omaha was taken, if you want to look at a fuck up...Caen set the allies behind schedule, Omaha didnt. Arnhem set us back...Omaha didnt. Battle of the Bulge was a sole US operation, 5% UK participation, you sat out the rest of the war
