An awesome video, showing the day in day out patrols of a Sniper/Recce Multiple. The Grenadiers are away to Afghan very soon. Good luck to one of the Army's most professional units, and a Regiment from the Household Division that formed or helped to form nearly all Elite units of todays Army.
The video does have some generic footage that is in most videos but this is posted as a draft i believe. Impressive!!!!

The men in this video are professional soldies with a duty to serve their country. This is a democratic country and the Army in an Autocratic arm of which the Government imposes its policies. This video is a limited account of what goes on as you can't film through the most dangerous of situations. This Callsign was in volved in several incidents including fightig alongside the PWRR in a fire fight that lasted several hours with distinction. If you ask these soldiers what they feel they will tell you. Its not just about doing your job but sharing it with your friends and throughout your experiences you remain loyal to the Army and these guys are. I know several of them. The Multiple Commander O'B is the most professional soldier i know, who thinks outside the box, and the best NCO i have worked with in my career. This video is a reflection of the hard work these guys put into their job and should't be used as an anti-government propaganda tool. You dishonour them by doing so....... Capt (rtd)

What planet is this captain from?-I know exactly what those lads feel because I WAS THERE TOO!-In NO way am I "Dishonouring" them by having their video on my site,quite the opposite in fact I'm honouring them!-I support the British Army and my former regiment,The Royal Green Jackets (Now the Rifles)100% and always will!-What I don't support however is Tony Blair and his "Joke" of a government!-I NEVER supported Blair's invasion of Iraq,even when I was serving there,and having seen the result with my own eyes NEVER will!
Yes he is a bit of a chopper but nice to see he has some repect for his men at least, and recognises good Platoon Sgts. Sounds like these guys enjoy their job and are professional. That is a shame as they are pawns in a governmental game of gaining oil etc. . . best of luck for Afghanistan!!
