"On The Left"-Sisters In Arms:
I wear my medals
I wear my medals
I wear my medals on the left
(Army Verse)
Tank Commander 1st AR
In an M1A1 Abrams on a live fire battle run
A sixty tonne hull of steel,
The king of the battlefield
In the Mount Bundy northern Sun
The turret spins, the target found
The big gun shakes the ground
In the noise and dust the job is done
I’m in the Army and I’ve made the grade
I’ve served my country in the 1st Brigade
(chorus)
And I wear my medals on the left
I proudly wear my medals on the left
I served with pride
And because they’re mine
I wear my medals on the left
I wear them on the left
(Navy Verse)
HMAS Adelaide was ordered out to intercept
A drug ship in the seven seas
We tracked the target out of sight
Under the horizon line
And we set off the LHD
The RHIBs were launched into a storm
Choppers rose into the dawn
We took that whaler by surprise
The Navy is a part of me
I served my country on the sea
(chorus)
And I wear my medals on the left
I proudly wear my medals on the left
I served with pride
And because they’re mine
I wear my medals on the left
I wear them on the left
(Air Force Verse)
I’m an officer cadet
I’m strapped into a PC9
Training at 2FTS
Pre flight checks and master switch
Throttle up the engine kicks
I’m off off runway 1-8 Left
10,000 feet the world below
Up into a loop I go
I’m on the top and on my way
Got my wings I learned to fly
I served my country in the sky
(Chorus)
And I wear my medals on the left
I proudly wear my medals on the left
I served with pride
And because they’re mine
I wear my medals on the left
I proudly wear my medals on the left (Ooooooh)
I served with pride
We were side by side
I wear my medals on the left
I wear them on the left
Whooo!

US Army here, we absolutely use a lot of the same slang , like dog & pony, gucci, would you rather, rock throwing, work through lunch, at dental, etc. Plus a few other similarly named ones like forced fun/mandatory fun, fat truck/gut truck, diggernet/private news network (PNN), EDP1/MEDPROS, and just to reiterate/to caveat off that.

33:40 the Mad Minute started with the Lee Enfield rifle in WWI because the comparably short 303 allowed for the bolt to come back without smacking your face so you could cycle it real quick and thus you would use your middle finger to pull the trigger whilst madly cycling the bolt through a 10 round mag (the standard at the time was 5) which gave the enemy the impression that the Brits were suppressing with Automatic fire. I do love the evolution of it becoming a brawl though haha very Aussie.

Wow - some real gems amongst that lot. Noting my service occurred during a protracted period of relatively little operational activity for the ADF (1977-96), anyone with active service medals were relatively unique. I would therefore like to add to the ancestry of 'Crusty'. In my era 'crusty' was a term liberally applied for any still serving Vietnam Vets or anyone essentially over the age of 35, there was no specific or implied negative reference to Warrant Officers. Another term regularly used was 'Carl Gustav' (anti-armour weapon) - soldiers would give this name to one-night-stand partners - later the partner would ring the base looking for this soldier - much banter in the guard room when you received these calls. P.S. To anyone out there 40-50s named Carl - no I am not your dad!
@fatmanfaffing4116 2 ай бұрын
I served around the same time 77-86. I forget how many times sheilas would ring the Guard Room asking for 'Brett, he's a helicopter pilot..." We didn't have dolphin trainers in my day. Me and my mate whitey did the helicopter pilot thing one Friday night only to have our dates turn up at the Open Day on Sunday... while we operated the hand tool stand demonstrating how engineers use long handled shovels and mattocks.... Not very glamourous and sadly the last time we saw either of the two Debs.

G'day everyone thanks for watching. I have a bad habit of getting overly ambitious with video ideas, which results in me making monster projects that take months to complete like this one. I edit for love of the game, and enjoy it as a creative outlet, however video's of this length sadly are not sustainable with the demands of the real world. Perhaps there may come a day where I can focus exclusively on KZfaq content, but that time is not now. Accordingly, I'll likely return to making shorter (sub 15 minute) videos as this channel moves forward. My deepest gratitude for spending your valuable time watching these creations. Many thanks, -K

The Mad Cow was originally Langs Tavern, home of 1RAR. Almost went broke when we deployed to Somalia. The classic Liver Buster was the drink of the day mid 90’s, 5shots of white spirits, plus a colour of your choice, in a beer mug, ice and lemonade. Blue Curacao was the favourite, being 1RAR of course.

I left the job in 1986 and while there are numerous new terms, it is heartening to see so much I knew and held dear lives on with our current crop of diggers. People often berate our Gen Zs and Millennials but I remind them we were berated when we were their age and it was BS then and it's BS now. Anyone who signs on the dotted line and enlists escapes the inglorious end known as being a civy. great work, liked and subbed.

When the yanks came over for talisman saber, one of my mates said, really loudly in the breakfast line: "Hey digger, come get the food while it's hot". A large black American soldier misheard this as a word that rhymes with digger and it took a lot of explaining from a few parties to talk him down. None of us even considered that the Americans didn't know our language.

5:49 Former radio operator - in order to get an antenna up a tree, we often had to throw a rope up with a weight on it. My det commander told me that some of the weights we had werent heavy enough, so could i go to the q-store and ask for a few long weights. I was a very trusting sig, and the q-store was more than happy for me to have a long weight. Good bloke, shame he died. Best boss ever.

@@coralsearc, cheers for that. I was posted to 2/4 RAR in 1990 from SOI, then was in the unit for the delinking parade from 2/4 RAR to 2 RAR and 4 RAR in 95. They even gave us a choice of bring posted to Holsworthy Barracks in Sydney, to boost the numbers for the newly established 4 RAR. I was from Newcastle originally, but due to my marital status, they thought it was a wise decision to stay in Townsville. Plus my wife at the time was a Townsville local, and refused to leave her friends and family behind, along with our 2 sons.

I spent 8 months getting in Shape to join infantry and have a crack at Commandos selection. In that time I also had my sleep apnea diagnosed to help me further lose weight. Eventually got fit enough that I no longer needed cpap. Only to find out that my diagnosis made me an instant class 4 medical and instant refusal to join Broke my heart for years, but now seeing the way the ADF Is going and what ive heard from friends inside, I see it as a blessing in disguise, but still mourne what could have been

As somebody that is apart of the AAC [Australian Army Cadets] I can say that doing emu bobs around Irwin Barracks or other places suck, mainly because if you have dumb recruits that think its a race and then your warrant officer would keep making us go back to restart. I have done them quite a few times and the best part is when you are finally done. But a clean place is better than a dirty place anyway just tell those people that its not a race, they would say to you "Go as fast as the worlds slowest man" to give you an idea that you dont go super slow but you dont go super fast.

I joined in 1968 for 6 years (infantry) and to be quite frank, at least 50% of the lingo used in this video was new to me. After watching this, I realize it was a much more simple army in those days, for example, the boozer was open every night and if I remember rightly, some lunch times as well. There wasn’t much time for niceties, it was get them in, train them and send them north to a certain country in Asia. As they say, time changes everything.

I'm considering joining the Australian military as a Brazilian, in order to legally immigrate there. I'd really enjoy a similar video on the Airforce and Navy. Btw, if you check Aussie's military website, the Army branch has a very cool video in the home page, showcasing (lying about) what to expect from joining. The Aiforce has the same, but it is extremelly boring and show people doing nothing half of the time, which I thought was hilarious. Then the Navy doesn't have anything, which I now believe was under the fear of somehow ending up with yet another public catastrophe to their name.
