"Vastly outnumbered, vastly outgunned" ....That describes the whole history of the British Military, Outnumbered means nothing to us.

@timfeeley6748

Are you suggesting British soldiers should just, not train for all situations in all theatres and environments, this is exactly how they got to be so competent.

@dev1346

The easiest way to explain how and why the British forces are so good is to say the following. We will teach you all YOU know. BUT we won't teach you all WE know. For example the SAS, the SBS and exercises like When Britain nuked America twice.

@SLAPERZZ1

When it comes to war, don’t mess with us Brits🤣 some say we’re a dying military force which is shrinking but I say we’d still put up a fight no matter the condition

@Stuboy

Its not the size of the dog in the fight , more of the size of the fight in the dog 🇬🇧

@David-ws6zr

Vastly out numbered vastly outgunned, but all our British forces train hard continuously and are one of the best in the world, im very proud

@michaelcurry1927

Thank god you are not in charge if it doesn’t make sense to you

People forget that for the first eighteen months of the Second World War the USSR was more or less an ally of Hitler's Germany. While most of Europe was struggling with Hitler's blitzkrieg in 1940, the Soviet Union just walked into Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, and tried to walk into Finland. The Soviet Union had to be allowed to keep the three Baltic States after the Second World War - albeit as Soviet Socialist Republics - and they only became properly independent when the Soviet Union collapsed about 1990.

I would have thought this is not about attacking Russia, but more about defending NATO member countries from Russian expansionism.

NATO is not set up to be an aggressive force but to defend a member nation from an aggressive nation who invade. Forcing them back to sovereign borders ie Russia invading Ukraine. NATO will not attack Russia but will fight them if they attack a member country. This is the point of these war games in the Baltic states because of Russian aggression.

Conner, it's quality over quantity that counts, the UK has fought in 93 different countries around the world over the centuries and it's a bit embarrassing really because we did miss a few out. 😉

@spikeus3039

Always a good policy to shut up and listen when you don't know ;)

@Badgersj

"Yeomanry" is a name that's found attached to several British Army regiments. In pre-industrial times a "Yeoman" was someone of the more prosperous farming class, i.e. small independent farmer, agricultural worker made good. In the beginning they formed volunteer groups which became the British Army alongside the more official cavalry regiments and the like. So there's something slightly independent, proudly dirty-fingernailed about belonging to a Yeomanry regiment.

@alexmonroe613

Wargames is a vital part of NATO training and operation.

@johnforrester7961

Hi Connor,

@craigflower13

The yellow thing on the end of the soldiers personal weapon barrel is a BFA (blank firing attachment). This prevents debris from leaving the muzzle and produces a higher internal pressure to cycle the weapon properly.

@ianjardine7324

Not just national pride speaking but using a British reconnaissance regiment as the enemy force is going to be some high quality training those guys have decades of experience and are specialized in operating as small highly mobile raiders using stealth to locate where their enemies are most vulnerable before striking.

@gotmunchiez

The point is to practise defending a bordering NATO country that Russia might invade. Russia aren't likely to start launching nukes over Latvia or Estonia so training for more traditional warfare is still very important.

@wiretom

this is essentially giving nato a better 'enemy' before it fights the russians , the british army despite its downsize is still a forerunner in military operations , still the innovater , still the most experienced army , it goes back to waterloo , the british have been on operations all over the world since then , constant combat pretty much for 200 years
