I have a request (if you have it)

Bushcraft - Four seasons.

[RitchiePowell]

Yap, I do have it and it's on my list.

But not so soon... I want to do this in the order as is.

Cheers!

Not knowing much about the man myself, I suppose one of the reasons Robert Rogers was forgotten by official history is partly due to the fact that he adapted the fighting style of the so-called heathen. A fighting style very much in use today, but was looked down on as a dishonorable way to fight..

ray is the master but he has a lot of '' all time heros'' if u watch his shows lol. still the best bushcraft thingy guy there is. great vid thanks for the upload

I can't believe they haven't erected some kind of statue or something...where he's buried.

Ray Mears, OUTSTANDING job once again. Combining excellent knowledge and excellent teaching style.

How could that fire keep both tents warm? It's so small and far away...

@astranine

Absolutely true.

[ludocrat]

There was a young, pretty incompetent, careerist Lieutenant who took part in the Seven Years War serving with the British Army. During the course of one patrol he led, he managed to alienate his own Indian troops by treating them like dirt and there is some evidence that his unsolicited ambush on a French outpost was actually one of the things that started the war in the first place. His name? Why, George Washington of course!

i love this show but i dont think rogers and his rangers did alot of fire making. couldve comprimised them right?

[1226dragon]

this is not EXTREME SURVIVAL this is like SURVIVAL AND STORIES

[USMarineRifleman0311]

The truth of the matter was that the actual British army turned its nose up when it came to colonial type units. The disrespect for one another continued on into Washington's army of 1775-76.

[USMarineRifleman0311]

@jamesassbag these were American colonials....2nd class British "citizens"

[Paladine71]

Modern U.S. Army Rangers still honor Robert Rogers and follow his standing orders. He is NOT forgotten! RLTW!
