Skills in conventional warfare are still critical and armies still need bridges to cross rivers and ravines - with the conflict in Ukraine looking more like the Second World War.
55 Training Squadron, based at Minley, Hampshire, has been teaching their brand new engineers the art of bridge building.

Concidering the UK has a problem with recruitement why dont we just allow more Ghurkas to fill the ranks? if the british civis dont want to join give more opportunities to the gerka regs. Im Baffled everytime how they believe it is such an honour to fight for our country yet we drastically limit the pool of formiddable men from joining. We can still maintain a hardcore Gurkha reg while also giving opportunities to those who dont quite meet those requirements. We need to remember the money the Ghurkas get drastically improves the quality of life to their families at home. I think the MOD should really look into opening the flood gates to more Napalese men.

The answer to recruitment issues isn't slave labour. Its making service attractive. Train personnel in skills transferable to civvy street and look after ex personnel with issues. Also stop fighting wars with the sole purpose of funneling tax money into the pockets of billionaires. Once service becomes attractive, recruitment won't be an issue. It won't happen in my lifetime though.

Slow and not being under armor sucks, but nothing can break beyond what a welder can temporarily fix at the spot. Systems that are available and work might not be as sexy as the big systems, but so much more available.

@pauliewalnuts240
@pauliewalnuts240 5 месяцев назад
Ive always thought of gurkhas as skilled in raiding warfare tactics. Their training is tougher then most units, onlt the few best candidates are accepted if im not mistaken? Erecting bridges quickly is undoubtedly important, but surely you could deploy these talented men in a more useful role. My grandfather was an engineer in the army so im not discrediting its importance, i just always thought of the gurkhas as closer to green berets rather then the muscle for labor.
@SodaPrezsing
@SodaPrezsing 5 месяцев назад
Their initial training is the entire Combat Infantryman Course and then some language training. So if need be they could be put into a Infantry role

The army should expand The Ghurkas to two brigades, given the current recruitment crisis. As good as, if not better than, any other infantry regiment.

One of the last hopes the British Army has of making any kind of impact in battle. Given the size and 'quality' of our armed forces and the dreadful neglect of its strength by MOD I don't have much confidence that we could fight our way out of a paper bag, no disrepect to the few real fighting men that we have.

00:00-00:35 - Я ничего не понял. Что это было? Вот помню: в детском садике у меня были такие приспособления для обучения счёту - счётные палочки, - и хотя они не предназначались в качестве строительного материала для, скажем, игрушечных мостов и переправ, но я использовал их для этого и строил из них как из брёвен и бруса мосты и переправы. Здесь, я вижу, - примерно то же самое.
