  • @ninjamaster73 Royal Marines were fighting before the US existed as a nation. So you can stop with the "history" boast... because the EVERY regiment in the UK can boast a longer combat record. The US army focuses on numbers i.e. quantity. The UK army focuses on quality, simply because we have little choice in the matter and quality>quantity, within limits ofc. Just looking at the standard training time for both prooves this.

  • I don't see why people argue over who is better. Marines or Royal Marines. U.S. Air Force or Army, it doesn't matter; we're all on the same team.

  • @Voltaire152 Well when you're talking about a country that ACTUALLY fights unlike your pussy military that just does support and logistics shit. I guess the Navy SEALs were relying on numbers when they did something the British were too scared to do in killing Bin Laden or rescued hostages from pirates. You ALWAYS spit out nothing but laughable BS and need to shut that cock holster of yours. And please find some european website to go complain about Americans on.

  • @josh808m Oh sorry whats the comparative blue-on-blue rate for America VS any other member of NATO/UN? First British casualty in Iraq was at the hands of a U.S. soldier too badly trained to know the difference between a Typhoon & and Iraqi fighter-jet, incapable of using the technology he was given. American's training for basic soliders is shorter than its allies and America has ALWAYS relied on numbers to achieve victory since 1918.

  • @Voltaire152 Actually we focus on quantity AND quality. Your post shows you know very little about military service at all. Why don't you go to a video on a British-based website and whine about Americans there?

  • @MrDunitd01 EXACTLY

  • None of the comments are relevant to the video, maybe our species are a bunch of dumb, egotistic, & envious creatures! Lol!

  • @jackca4 That's not true at all!! You've never seen shadow boxing before? MCMAP & Krav Maga are the elite styles for any military

  • The marine force recon is way better that the royal marine commandos hands down. The marines are the most elite fighting force in the world. Ooh-Rah!
