Good stuff. I would love to engage in some this kind of training with actual dug in threats, using Airsoft of course. Good stuff and oh yeah don't you just love all the hate-tube comments from people that have no clue...."Couch Commandos" as I call them ;)
good tactical speed smooth transitions noticed 3 man not entering room instead securing from door hatch while 4 picked up 6. is this a technique that was executed due to room size and restrictive terrain?
That's how you room clear... They have a four man team, Three go in and clear the forth will stay in the hall and watch the back and keeps doing that until the rest of the team moves on. When entering the room first man goes left second goes right, third goes center.
It's so cool to see the real deal you know... I've always saw this type of action only on TV or video games... Is awesome to watch how they work as a well synchronized force.
walking 2 men wide down a hallway and filling it up? Thats a big no no where i come from. they wouldnt even have to aim to wipe out the whole team coming down the hall way. some things were executed a little fast in my opinion, Slow is Smooth and Smooth is Fast. but u can tell that u guys have backgrounds, great job.
Saying one SOF unit is better then the other is one of the stupidest things you can ever think of. All units including non SOF are mission specialized so they are the best at what they do. Otherwise there would be no point in having all these different units if they all did the same thing. They are trained to do what they are ment to do, since SEALs are trained differently it dosent make them better, its all about mission specs. Other then that great video man! Superb job! Loved it.
greywolf is retarded. As a Force Recon Marine I know what it takes. We are a lot more than a halfway in between point. Maybe in your video games SEALS are more elite but in reality you should stay quiet cause you don't know
Force is a joke now days. they dont even have the budget to send all the operators to BRC. and they still use jump school in Bragg wich is a joke. Force just isnt what it once was and MARSOC is still to new to know how well they are going to perform. BTW im not trying to start a argument, im just saying what i know. i use to be a Marine and im in the Army now, the SF pipeline here in the Army is much better.
If you go slow, the bad dudes have more time to draw a bead on your head. If you haul ass and get your sidearm level, you can shoot him and have the element of surprise, or at least, in theory.
Good job on the dance moves. IBT huh? This was more like dance moves preplaned. Looks good on camera though, I will give you that. But why have a TM walk backwards on stairs? Most injuries do not occur from OpFor, they come from gucci moves like that one. You all work very well together and I hope you continue to work on it. Just some constructive critisim.
Most injuries occur from teams who don't train enough to avoid slip ups like that.
You may as well tell the boys at Fort Bragg that they what they do is just preplanned dance moves and only looks good on camera as well. It's just as, if not more "gucci looking" then the techniques displayed on this video.
You must account for the movement of the Ship due to swells in the water. Also take into account wet slippery surfaces. A proper response would have been, "This is how the boys at Fort Bragg do it, and as we all know there is more than one way to skin a cat." But concidering you had nothing better to say than to cut and paste information already posted then I would say that you have zero background in CQC, CQB, or tactical anything. I never said these guys were wrong. I just posed a question.
Would you have him walk up the stairs facing the wall? haha I see what you mean, but if you have to risk personal injury to gain a tactical advantage over the enemy then you do so.
Ladies n gentleman this kind of training environment is designed for future US NAVY VBSS team members, it stands for Visit Boarding Search n Seizure, every ship on the fleet must have at least two teams prior any deployments...just FYI
Its not a friggin' business interview. If a soldier can do his job without getting himself, and everyone else killed, who gives a flying fuck if he can spell? It's combat operations training, not a friggin' marketing ploy It was probably a simple typo. Get your panties our of your ass.
cool !! i like the movements and cooperation of the team but the're kinda noisy saying clear the enemy can hear them well were they are and maybe try a bomb trap or something its cool though.
Excellent entry procedures and movement, now to help clear some of this up, it was a simulated helicopter insertion, in real life when a chopper lands everyone already knows your there, so by using verbal you increase efficiency all around. Normally in my comments I try to find criticisms but you've outdone yourselves, I can't find any real major flaws in that, you get the matdude3 seal of approval which has never before been given out to a video, i'm tough heh.
everyone screws up mate....why do i get the feeling you think force recon are the best because you played COD 4....what about that discovery channel show where it was following a group of guys trying to get into the SEALs, two of them were currently force recon marines...one dropped out...doesnt really prove your point t me that they are better....because Force Recon arent even trained in half of the shit that SEALs are...force recon are half way between regular Marines and SEALs

Force Recon is far from the Best. Complete Overrated. Marines Fuck Everything Up. Armys Special Forces, Delta Team is the Top Notch Team today, Followed by The Rangers and Seal Team. Recon is just a bunch of brainless Soldiers with a name.
It's a prefab ship in a box. As soon as you un-dog a hatch on level one, you hear it on level three...no need for noise discipline. The Midway at Bremerton had more noise damping, but you could still hear teams trying to be quiet, a good bit down the P-Way.
Airsoft is mandated because of the close proximity of 2 parking lots/Squadron HQ. Just some comments to try and answer some of the critiques. FatalFunnel has the background, and I worked with him in Iraq.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Its a good video and all but...
If this was a stealth operation, you failed. You need more hand signals and talking should be strictly for emergencies.
If this was a take down and secure operation, you failed, but not as badly. The initial entry would might require a flash-bang to increase the chances of survival in the "hallway of death." Again, emphasis on hand signals and shoulder taps, especially at the stairway. There is no point in peaking around if you already alerted the hostiles.
You may want to use tactical comms so you do not have to yell out your next action/intention so the bogeys will not know what you're doing. You may also work on hand signals...
Great video - Add a FAST System to your kit for insurance. It will increase your life expectancy by providing continuous sub 2 second reloads every time. Bad news for the bad guys. Check it out at stractech - Coming Spring 2008!
anyone else besides FatalFunnel ever do any real boardings or maneuverings??? if so. would you say that every ship is the same??? or do you know every member on the team??? is he an FNG? in other words, can you work with everyone, or do you know how everyone works???? can any of you say your able to just hop on the team and make it look as good or better then they did?
I've done this mission in the past. No, every ship is not the same. You have to be flexible with your tactics to adapt to the actual layout once onboard. You'll know every team member well and probably spend a lot of time with them on/off the job, and the team will operate better.
Also, remember we're only seeing a tiny bit of what goes on. Video shows some entries/movements. Not much embarkation, use of force, room clearing, tactics, admin procedures, etc.
I know we would never let a FNG conduct an operation or entry until he has worked with everyone in the team. To easy for someone to get hurt of killed.
I do not care how good or what unit someone is from. Until we have worked with them then they do not stack!!!
Also,there is no definitive right or wrong in CQB. The environment will dictate your actions and you and your team may not always choose the right path. When this happens the team needs to roll off of the person in front of them and make the best adaptation they can. If 1 man goes left 2 man goes right. the 2 man does not have the time to think about the 1 mans choice he just needs to react to it.
A ladder-well is a nightmare scenario regardless of the situation. It is my belief that once you get eyes into the next compartment and it "appears" clear the team should get through the danger area as fast as possible in order to shorten the risk of exposure. Sometimes you have to give up the smaller threat to adapt to the greater threat. What are some of your thoughts?
Great video and great clearing techniques! Impressive.
We were always taught "slow is smooth - smooth is fast" in order to keep a stable shooting platform. Are you guys moving a little fast for recording purposes?
Thanks for the props, I would say that your speed can depend on the scenario and that is not an excuse. We are moving a little fast and some of it was to expedite the training value of the film as you pointed out but if you are dealing with a large vessel your mission may push you to secure aft steering and the bridge as quickly as possible in order to "own" the ship. I love the term "stable shooting platform".
lol..i think the problem with 230 was the guy holding point up the ladder had a doorway down the hall (i could be mistaken about this) and declared it as clear,the 2nd man up had his back to the 'clear' area,now,if i were to pop around the corner with an ak..my problem here is basically..he is holding point with only a pistol
Agreed, I would like to through out that a steep ladder-well is one hell of a choke point though. maneuvering in full gear with a long gun can prove difficult at times.
Why don't they use mirrors and shortened weapons .. cmon carrying around flag poles in a ship. those flash-bang doohickies, shields, flamethrowers and auto-shotguns.. where are those? teargas & masks. what if lights go out? or they run into a surprise-surprise barbwire corridor?
Im pretty sure that this is a NAVY VBSS team(Visit Board Seach and Seizure, there is no reason for them to be quiet.When they board, they come over on a RHIB boat and the boat knows they arecoming. Some people have not F-ing idea...I do, I was on a VBSS team
I don't see it? There is only one danger area to the left of the stairs. It is clear or it is not clear. As the one man called it clear the rest of the team focused on getting to the top of the ladder-well asap in order to set up the next movement and minimize exposure. Could you better explain, I don't see it. Thanks
Very well done you guys:) As for the people addressing the noise level, it's not a problem. It's not like your gonna sneak up on your enemy when they hear your every step, and all of the noise your equipement and guns make, and when your body hits or brushes against a wall. They are doing dynamic entries, not ninja stealth attacks.
Excellent video, and thank you for your service (and continued service). Everyone needs to relax because there is no such thing as "THE WAY" to engage threats in a CQB environment. The video is a classic example of one, and an excellent one at that. Most people that criticize this vid are the elite unit of the Armchair Recon Commando Team 7. If not, then you should know better.
I am trying to figure out why anyone would go out of their way to slam something they clearly don't understand, but then again why do I even care what you think? You have know idea who I am or what I have done with my life. When you put up some better vids I will pull mine off, until then try understanding there are different styles of CQB that are dependent on the mission.
Look at the USA for instance. Big country, many states and therefore many police departments. You go round looking at each of their CQB techniques, you'll see some variation no matter what, whether it be big or small.
Also, the line between right or wrong in CQB is very blurred as there are many ways to do things in CQB.
For instance, there are many ways to stack or make entry into a room.
You can't say "oh thats wrong" because you think its not going to work. The most reliable way to tell if a technique is wrong would be if you get shot, simple as that.

well wat can i say.... wow! you guys are amazing. where did you learn that stuff? you probly watched alot of action movies. seriously, you guys are pathetic! how about you try doing it for real? maybe real weapons with real enemies. on the other hand we all know how that would turn out. get a damn life you clowns stop trying to act like you know something which is way beyond your capabilities. airsoft is for homo's!

strange that most of the tactical ops vids are from america and yet there specials forces have a proven track record in failure. wheres the MI6 and SAS vids guys? SAS were in Kuwait working as mechanics 6 months before the Gulf war even started; undercover. Lets see that going on folks!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Its a poor attempt at clearing rooms and areas... lots of sweeping going on and who the hell runs into a room like that, dynamic or not... if those were real guns you guys probably wouldn't be running around and sweepin backs like that. ever hear of slicing corners? much to loud as well... if you were taking a building your combatants would here you coming a mile away!
Maybe you should grow up and join the armed forces, you little wannabe. Go back to your gamer forums and let the adults talk without having to listen to your crying. Does your mommy know you are unsupervised on YouTube?
Good stuff. I'm def no expert but my only quam might be the lack of signalling, i found you guys to be a little too loud. Short of that def impressive stuff.
my only comment is there were a couple of scenes were it looked like the muzzle of certain mens weapons swiped there team mates. remember muzzle awarness. other than that preety danm good
These guys are actually pretty good, as for slow and loud. They are practicing assaulting a ship. Do you think they could swim up to it and sneak up on it in full assault gear? Nope, a helicopter hovering on the deck may be an indication that some shits about to pop off. Slow is smooth smooth is fast, alot more angles to consider on a listing ship with multiple decks and levels.
Also, newer ballistic helmets can stop small caliber rounds. You also have to think about how many bullets will be bouncing around inside a closed environment. A helmet is important, if you make entry and have to take down an unarmed drugged up 6-foot gorilla who is being non-compliant you may want some padding!
The only reason I am not wearing a helmet is because parts of this video were used for a video resume for the Military Channel. I was auditioning to be a host for one of their shows.
The head is a large off button of the human body and you need to protect it. In close quarters you are very likely to take a hit in the brain-housing group. There are more dangers then just bullets. I would never work with anyone who was not taking every precaution to stay safe taking every precaution to be there to watch my back.
Good movement. I would just rather be wearing helmets with a ballistic rating if I was going to have to wear a box on my head. YMMV. Stay Safe, cover you six or be carried by six. Welch
I don't really care for helmets,they don't really stop bullets sept from low powered or extreme distance, but it will protect from shrapnel,however there bulky,make it harder to see, my head always feels like I'm trying to move a bowling bowl when I'm moving it with one on, I look at it this way if I get shot in the head I won't know the difference anyway, however if differnt man rather wear one go ahead, but its not my thing
yes its possible to do sniping duties on choppers SEALs are really the only ones in the military who train for it however SWAT trains for it too, its in the SEAL combat boarding manual
Cool video, they are really good :) One note: at 1:00 - never stand just in front of the door You are going to open because You never no what can be inside... Regards.
o and as far as a guy looking for snipers he'd probaly already be in position to cover the team as they came in but this is supposed to be a ship so theres really no point in a sniper however if this SEALs on a real op theyed probaly have their own sniper covering them from a hovering chopper
Im guessing by the look of what theyr training on its meant to resemble a ship...look at the doors and the structure of the place...They may be SEALS (one of the guys in the credits is called Master chief...) may have no meaning though...Kool vid none the same
not bad my friends, very smooth. 1 don't like the "V" stack on the get go in the first hallway. you don't know if its "T" shaped yet. and when yall were pulling back down the stairs, you left that rear man hanging by himself, the dud with no helmet should of least stayed at the top of there stairs long enough for the "4" man to get there and pick up rear security. anyway semper fi
hehehe ... I thought that all people encountered are considered suspects thus have to be restrained.
Seriously though... I am just noob, closest thing to being in the military or police is ROTC but what about the sorrounding buidlings? Shouldnt one of the dudes be looking out for snipers or something???
Hahaha ...tried to apply to the academy... didnt pass because I didnt have 20/20 vission.
Seriously though, they are on a open air rooftop, shoudnt one of the assault team be looking out for perimeter threats aside from the area they from and the area ahead?
All I can say that it is somewhere here Asia. Our military has a pretty low budget thats why they compensate by placing very stringent physical requirements on Academy applicants. Think 300 spartans...
Thinking of joining regular military when I graduate from college, by that time I would have saved enough for LASIK/PRK

good movement.
suggest practice with flash-bangs thrown to back ceiling before entry.
also, movement with gas-masks on important.
lastly, low-light visibility training with night vision goggles critical too.
overall, good job.

Its a good video and all but...
If this was a stealth operation, you failed. You need more hand signals and talking should be strictly for emergencies.
If this was a take down and secure operation, you failed, but not as badly. The initial entry would might require a flash-bang to increase the chances of survival in the "hallway of death." Again, emphasis on hand signals and shoulder taps, especially at the stairway. There is no point in peaking around if you already alerted the hostiles.

You may want to use tactical comms so you do not have to yell out your next action/intention so the bogeys will not know what you're doing. You may also work on hand signals...

anyone else besides FatalFunnel ever do any real boardings or maneuverings??? if so. would you say that every ship is the same??? or do you know every member on the team??? is he an FNG? in other words, can you work with everyone, or do you know how everyone works???? can any of you say your able to just hop on the team and make it look as good or better then they did?
HallBoss3 4 years ago 3
I've done this mission in the past. No, every ship is not the same. You have to be flexible with your tactics to adapt to the actual layout once onboard. You'll know every team member well and probably spend a lot of time with them on/off the job, and the team will operate better.
Also, remember we're only seeing a tiny bit of what goes on. Video shows some entries/movements. Not much embarkation, use of force, room clearing, tactics, admin procedures, etc.
rjl2001 4 years ago
I know we would never let a FNG conduct an operation or entry until he has worked with everyone in the team. To easy for someone to get hurt of killed.
I do not care how good or what unit someone is from. Until we have worked with them then they do not stack!!!
Cyburg0321 4 years ago
Also,there is no definitive right or wrong in CQB. The environment will dictate your actions and you and your team may not always choose the right path. When this happens the team needs to roll off of the person in front of them and make the best adaptation they can. If 1 man goes left 2 man goes right. the 2 man does not have the time to think about the 1 mans choice he just needs to react to it.

A ladder-well is a nightmare scenario regardless of the situation. It is my belief that once you get eyes into the next compartment and it "appears" clear the team should get through the danger area as fast as possible in order to shorten the risk of exposure. Sometimes you have to give up the smaller threat to adapt to the greater threat. What are some of your thoughts?
FatalFunnel 4 years ago
Great video and great clearing techniques! Impressive.
We were always taught "slow is smooth - smooth is fast" in order to keep a stable shooting platform. Are you guys moving a little fast for recording purposes?
Again, great video!
coldbluedsteel 4 years ago
Thanks for the props, I would say that your speed can depend on the scenario and that is not an excuse. We are moving a little fast and some of it was to expedite the training value of the film as you pointed out but if you are dealing with a large vessel your mission may push you to secure aft steering and the bridge as quickly as possible in order to "own" the ship. I love the term "stable shooting platform".
FatalFunnel 4 years ago
lol..i think the problem with 230 was the guy holding point up the ladder had a doorway down the hall (i could be mistaken about this) and declared it as clear,the 2nd man up had his back to the 'clear' area,now,if i were to pop around the corner with an ak..my problem here is basically..he is holding point with only a pistol
evilpacker 4 years ago
Agreed, I would like to through out that a steep ladder-well is one hell of a choke point though. maneuvering in full gear with a long gun can prove difficult at times.
FatalFunnel 4 years ago
Why don't they use mirrors and shortened weapons .. cmon carrying around flag poles in a ship. those flash-bang doohickies, shields, flamethrowers and auto-shotguns.. where are those? teargas & masks. what if lights go out? or they run into a surprise-surprise barbwire corridor?

Vietnam07 4 years ago
I don't see it? There is only one danger area to the left of the stairs. It is clear or it is not clear. As the one man called it clear the rest of the team focused on getting to the top of the ladder-well asap in order to set up the next movement and minimize exposure. Could you better explain, I don't see it. Thanks

Very well done you guys:) As for the people addressing the noise level, it's not a problem. It's not like your gonna sneak up on your enemy when they hear your every step, and all of the noise your equipement and guns make, and when your body hits or brushes against a wall. They are doing dynamic entries, not ninja stealth attacks.

Mostly because YouTube is full of psuedo elitist pricks that think they're cool for leaving insulting comments instead of constructive criticisim.
Personally I thought the video was sick. A few flaws here and there but it was pretty well done. The music was good too. =)

randydang14 4 years ago
Excellent video, and thank you for your service (and continued service). Everyone needs to relax because there is no such thing as "THE WAY" to engage threats in a CQB environment. The video is a classic example of one, and an excellent one at that. Most people that criticize this vid are the elite unit of the Armchair Recon Commando Team 7. If not, then you should know better.

I am trying to figure out why anyone would go out of their way to slam something they clearly don't understand, but then again why do I even care what you think? You have know idea who I am or what I have done with my life. When you put up some better vids I will pull mine off, until then try understanding there are different styles of CQB that are dependent on the mission.
FatalFunnel 4 years ago
totally true.
Look at the USA for instance. Big country, many states and therefore many police departments. You go round looking at each of their CQB techniques, you'll see some variation no matter what, whether it be big or small.
jimothy183 4 years ago
Also, the line between right or wrong in CQB is very blurred as there are many ways to do things in CQB.
For instance, there are many ways to stack or make entry into a room.
You can't say "oh thats wrong" because you think its not going to work. The most reliable way to tell if a technique is wrong would be if you get shot, simple as that.

well wat can i say.... wow! you guys are amazing. where did you learn that stuff? you probly watched alot of action movies. seriously, you guys are pathetic! how about you try doing it for real? maybe real weapons with real enemies. on the other hand we all know how that would turn out. get a damn life you clowns stop trying to act like you know something which is way beyond your capabilities. airsoft is for homo's!

Its a poor attempt at clearing rooms and areas... lots of sweeping going on and who the hell runs into a room like that, dynamic or not... if those were real guns you guys probably wouldn't be running around and sweepin backs like that. ever hear of slicing corners? much to loud as well... if you were taking a building your combatants would here you coming a mile away!

These guys are actually pretty good, as for slow and loud. They are practicing assaulting a ship. Do you think they could swim up to it and sneak up on it in full assault gear? Nope, a helicopter hovering on the deck may be an indication that some shits about to pop off. Slow is smooth smooth is fast, alot more angles to consider on a listing ship with multiple decks and levels.

Also, newer ballistic helmets can stop small caliber rounds. You also have to think about how many bullets will be bouncing around inside a closed environment. A helmet is important, if you make entry and have to take down an unarmed drugged up 6-foot gorilla who is being non-compliant you may want some padding!
FatalFunnel 4 years ago
maybe ur right however I still prefer to go with out it,everyone has prefrences and thats ok.
KBar666 4 years ago
The only reason I am not wearing a helmet is because parts of this video were used for a video resume for the Military Channel. I was auditioning to be a host for one of their shows.
FatalFunnel 4 years ago
The head is a large off button of the human body and you need to protect it. In close quarters you are very likely to take a hit in the brain-housing group. There are more dangers then just bullets. I would never work with anyone who was not taking every precaution to stay safe taking every precaution to be there to watch my back.
FatalFunnel 4 years ago
Yes, in CQB helmet is uncomfortable and probably won't help in you are shot in the head. In the open field there is a diffrent situation.

I don't really care for helmets,they don't really stop bullets sept from low powered or extreme distance, but it will protect from shrapnel,however there bulky,make it harder to see, my head always feels like I'm trying to move a bowling bowl when I'm moving it with one on, I look at it this way if I get shot in the head I won't know the difference anyway, however if differnt man rather wear one go ahead, but its not my thing

o and as far as a guy looking for snipers he'd probaly already be in position to cover the team as they came in but this is supposed to be a ship so theres really no point in a sniper however if this SEALs on a real op theyed probaly have their own sniper covering them from a hovering chopper
