the Navy's elite fighting force dad's army body of a white mage BMS each a Marine realistically Marines lose the lives in service the recruits are taught by serving Marines human fresh from fighting in Afghanistan we're here to knock assassin villian mentality out on this military head on them I say yes I would go as far without block next to me what it was up daily gave marks you little [ __ ] this is the Royal Marines as you've never seen them before it's just mental you're just completely stepping into the unknown a third won't leak is come up every time we lose someone we rub around but for those who succeed a new life awaits congratulations all of them I will prod than your pants this is purpo testicles somewhere yeah and take a grip this is what it takes to be a Royal Marines commando [Music] keep in step with my voice today 56 new recruits are arriving at Linton for their first day of training they hope to pass out in eight months time based on 32 weeks of job interview if you haven't got the right set it you know you're not fit enough where you can't pass all the tests you don't get a job get a move on yeah it's not summer camp here lads for the first fortnight they are confined to the foundation block where they will be put through the initial steps of military training this is a new way of how your life will be from now on area it's out of their comfort zone straightaway they will be overseen by just one man corporal Frogg Isha 4 come on you areö my voice will own them for the rest of their lives even like when they retire I remember that bloke he was a nightmare on the lockers it would be a label with your surname on it and your military number on top and that number will stay with you from the end of your career do you understand deep down all of them are a bit like unsecured proper scared will have Bradley nuts in their stomach swimming like a [ __ ] pig what I mean just proper rabbits alert lights and you're just like god here we go again if I wasn't nervous I think that'd be something wrong with me it is the toughest military course in the world and that is that for a reason welcome parents they're in the Air Force oh I always fancied it I've never been away from like home without my family before mum wanted me to be a math teacher most of the men here are in their late teens and early 20s but the Marines will take new recruits up to the age of 33 did you see myself not really getting forward in life by becoming a Royal Marine and and give me a chance to provide a better life for my family that's a real motivation for me who's now or never basically how the kukri are is a golf professional but there was always had something that it's always wanted to have a military career before they start training all the recruits must swear their allegiance to the core and the Queen those you don't know me my name is color sergeant all's Flintoff you were referred to me simply as colors once they've done this there is no turning back okay your initial service you were test tonight you'll serve 28 days in the wrong rings weather tomorrow you can't tango actually this is now it's not for me okay you will have another 27 days to serve we've got you after this you belong to me okay so take it seriously fellas this is your career okay this is day one okay there's anybody here who wishes not to attest okay so many brings Chinese human nail followed by the OSI I'll bring the room up to attention remember what now yes make it quick no lights Bishop attest you don't want okay okay I said no shame in it the boss pulled the pin already okay just just go to my office he doesn't wanna test it so he's just on me in office this with the boss hi do you know one of the tests I've pushed into a little Enzo I was like can we dance okay it's the a let's do sir all right just grab a seat man oh this chair discord you mean you're pushed into it family friends so both in the area oh sorry love do you not know it's it's a personal decision my advice would be to you let's fight this country for 20 days why can you say for 28 days it's for weeks and it's because I've got a good opportunity University as well he's just saying that so you can't do the flow weeks I don't you win sir okay so medical okay I'm not going to stop you from not doing this I'm telling you now you are gonna come back everybody comes back and all they say to every other bloke that has any doubts like this is that then do it because you're gonna come back Mars witnessin Hallandale [Music] honestly believed himself I've got a Speak Up now and I think it's little sinful inside we just said right this is it don't want it anymore one it wasn't easy thing to do I mean I was shaking in my boots literally military life is not for everybody it could be a shock to new recruits and people just bottle it just get scared all right this deal was disappointing was calling on I thought he might be thrown away magnificent opportunity and I thought he might regret it but with hindsight atthenes made the right decision without a shred of doubt he's made the right decision but I do think it took a lot of bottle to like put your hand up in front of that kind of audience gonna speak your mind I think it wasn't yeah I think was very more mature than what I've ever been in me life which you were I'm very proud with the fact I made that decision because it's something I wonder do James Smith has left at the last possible moment now short of a medical discharge no one else can leave for at least a month I'm gonna switch off the light all of you will go in your beds and you will sleep no one here we're setting it all in the wolverines you never sleep with boxer shorts or socks on you always sleep naked clearly just as a shower now you are clean so you're going to a clean bed is that clear yes okay what's gonna happen now give you flip-flops off go inside your beds all of you if I catch anyone with [ __ ] boxes on or [ __ ] socks you can stand by okay I'm gonna switch up the lights now this is for real you can't just like skip the fence and go movie night yeah skip school this time you're here you volunteered to be here so you do as we say some of them don't like that and that's a nightmare [Applause] it's 5:30 a.m. on the recruit second day [Music] froggy has two weeks to get this troop through foundation so they can move on to the next stage of training everybody get naked and start [ __ ] running do I need to shower and get all your stuff done [Music] the shock of capture I saw it still isn't it time we gotta be back in the military environment things are taken away from you a lot freedoms that you knew you take for granted reading a newspaper watching the news having a cup of tea have to show our faces in 10 minutes and spring back with the full belly and do this and do that or 200 miles an hour and it's crazy wait you've got to get them into the regime headlock there's your new way of life everything's gonna be done a certain way and a certain way only good I know it's gonna be [ __ ] but what I want to see it's an improvement it's been up so they're not just mugging me off they actually doing what I'm telling them to do and the way we want it can all see the blue board over there on the blue board over there this is a list of like miscellaneous stuff yeah like your address and how to report so when you come in knock on someone's office it tells you you stand to attention get your arms alongside the body then you knock if you don't knock no one's gonna answer you so you knock at the door and it'll tell you how to report properly corporal I am then he says your military number three zero blah blah blah wherever it is recruit your surname of 180 troop all of you here are part of 180 troop and you asked permission to speak is that clear so I'm still [ __ ] doing [ __ ] all now go and read on the blue board over there and start practicing and learning by heart understood disappear [Music] get out of my door [Music] corporal I am three zero two zero six four two zero frequent every point disappear we don't know again disappear the paper as well yes I am start again jellybeans start again yes yes I am three zero two zero six four two zero of 180 troop permission to speak bail for you two oh [ __ ] me you're killing me - attention properly what do you say you're right corporal [ __ ] off next before the recruits can move into full training froggy has to take them right back to the basics and you move down he will be teaching them housekeeping etiquette and personal hygiene can you poppy really if you just let you pop you just piss everywhere yeah at some point you're gonna not listen to you the only course I'm gonna see it's words folded so if open that now show you what I've done so far do you see the massive crease in the center you're guessing the good a bit after you can teach him anything but you need to bring them down and kind of dominate them down it sounds a bit wrong rarely but you need to you know take grip of them and then we're gonna move them the way we want yeah massive crease they're at it yet because it's raising out if you see other side it's going in an ass yeah it's an ass fart came here I've never really I enjoy far like my mom like looks absolutely so it makes on my food makes my bed so not very mature to be honest with you make sure you go all under your chin around your - yeah and under your nose just like put your lens on it to feel if it's a bit rough cliff it's a bit rough you haven't shaved properly have you it's gonna go into the area's waist whether the most get his foreskin out clean these foreskin he needs to be tuned this ass crack but the other day if you come look after yourself on the camp with running water and electricity they're gonna be in the [ __ ] when they go outside in operations well bye if you didn't clean your weapon properly and my weapon will not work later on I might cost your life or someone loves so they need to be self-disciplined and everything they do two t-shirts and two trousers okay I was back home be more relaxed very relaxed as a lifeguard before this sitting on poolside there nothing waiting for someone - John is not gonna John but now you're just always thinking about what you've forgotten or what you have to do next seriously you can [ __ ] count me this than the other go over there this is way this is where this mr. in five minutes that's done isn't it at the end of foundation froggy will test the recruits on everything he's taught them everybody needs a immaculate locker you make it look bad immaculate uniform and the accommodation is to be spotless if they post their final inspection they will be rewarded with a weekend off they are barely allowed to wear from base until then my standards are very old personally I super flexion on my name on me and on the wrong rings all the way down your head finger above your eyebrows is absolutely brilliant like everyone was just fuzzing to help like the bear raised arm and it was just brilliant just looking at everyone thinking like this is the first activity and a proper role Maureen I used to go to college down the road never thought I'd ever want to be everyone weary I looked through those those gates and it just looked like a prison camp I never thought nothing I couldn't think of anything more worse but then get hooked on the bravery and life stuff and they were the turn for comment obsession or dunzo well sort said have you good kids old is it 40 months and you were about to [ __ ] come here well well goofing [ __ ] is it is it will you be on [ __ ] Tiger Woods [ __ ] bollocks there when that how much we all talking come on yeah roughly just a [ __ ] in a [ __ ] ball why have you got a boy or girl boy many of the recruits like 33 year old Colin bell have left family behind to come to training call him David after Miranda he was M&E of a so won't that is something along those lines but maybe makes one kid do something along these lines later on Magnus Brickman has left a girlfriend daughter and stepdaughter anyway I wish that things could be happy to have a normal job go to work come back you know and I've just be a family man like so many other people but he needs a bit more I think I love you I love you bye su tilray it's a booger no an joke now Mendieta now many joke all right for me I might something but really need to get some sleep so how are you the ultimate worry isn't it is you know that's weapons they go away and then people died not just that it was the legs all sorts of things that's that's the ultimate worries and it that's nice that's the worst wherever things all right me my say well bye could be quite tricky for them I've got three kids myself and unmarried oldest daughter she's autistic so you know having disabled child and the other twenty low age so he's quite difficult you know when I'm not on a daily basis the trooper halfway through foundation today they have a practice inspection in preparation for the final one in a week's time is there anything that you're trying to get past corporal yes [ __ ] everything my freakin will I mean holding machine yes keep that a secret cuz you know I mean anything that makes your life easy easy just kentuc off you everybody's gonna try to cut corners you always try to get away with murder but it seems to forget like all the training team will beam recruits before [Music] it's like a big game who's gonna win hey hey just me against like you know 50 of them it's like a big game in its poor place was people still moving getting dressed cutting berries on why should be there facing your [ __ ] front it's not difficult is it apparently nays 20 press up hurry up all of you should have a baryon facing your front stood to attention not fidgeting looking at me [ __ ] off by your beds - attention when I come to you you will report to me corporal I am ready for your inspection is that clear Kabul I am

confidence a bit of voice take a grip yeah I'm a little proud and your pants this is a perfect testicle somewhere yeah and take a grip you've got to get them into that way of life the way with the wrong reasons straightaway it could be painful in two weeks he just frustrated you so much and just like Wallace you just want to punch walls I'll still be they can be they all want to join my club so there will be two standard look at their fitness I bet you give them in the right way my help a little bit elbow up just go [ __ ] mad shaking it like German I'm Dyslexic his [ __ ] so I designed my lectures so you don't have to write a lot of notes so here's what I going to tell you the only notes you need to write on the very final slide in between the parts of the lecture is gonna be a little designated periods where we actually have little question answer sessions German there's only one stupid question in this world okay and that's the question which does not get asked okay if you ask a stupid question now everybody giggles you look like a tip two minutes it's over if you don't ask a stupid question and you do a stupid thing it's the beginning of week two the troop have only five days until they will be given a weekend off if they're past their final inspection what's almost looking forward to this week Saturday yes I'm the [Music] definitely go out clubbing depends I'll feel I might want to go to bed that's what I want to do right now I just want to go to bed you definitely do miss females that's what makes the weekend count even more when you can go out and just feel like yes females one recruit has been discharged sooner than he anticipated I know was medically discharged in bozek's my flare job on arrival at training it's one of a handful of conditions that are too difficult to cope with on the frontline focussed me home sir you're make just for them well it cheers but what's going on Bell then you speak to an officer and they say that you're just eczema so that's you [ __ ] for life forever you can't come back nothing what your skin will what disappear in the [ __ ] wind so that's you [ __ ] forever you can't come back on the city street carry on golfin you need to [ __ ] think about plan B done yeah I felt a bit sorry for him because I know you was like mighty to do this all his life yeah no job lined up or anything so he was militarily going back to you yeah and do nothing be jobless [Music] it's heartbreaking it's hard Monsieur Treville you can think about it for a long time and you finally gets here and that's a I was they just got what they understand working with them fala Galera self-confident your no used to your unit [Music] such as favor [Music] since I was 16 you wanted to join the war mine's been to Afghanistan yeah but know how to drain instructor back then I was just a young Marine after training GPMG Ghana I'm a soldier first then they're trained instructor second as either earrings five troop will move to left in threes left turn there are less than four days left of foundation the remaining recruits face one of their biggest tests so far their first night in the field welcome to the armory it's one of the most important places on this camp in thirty two weeks time they're gonna be raw brains and mobis into a war zone people more shooting more sugar people you could understand you know it's not you know I'm good PlayStation anymore playing video games this is for real this time you know people will die so they need to understand the reality of this place cuz you might see the nice little pictures in the careers office but they need to know deep down what it's all about the sa80 a2 or the l85a2 this weapon system will become a part of you it's almost like a prosthetic limb and you need to be capable more than capable of being able to use it and be accurate with it because if you are yourself and it would be a deadly weapon understood the last thing you want to be doing is caught out and killed because you didn't know how to use this I can't wait to actually just start firing these guns like what what so rifles yeah I get told off a car they good port arms till the weapon over towards the right hand side cocking handle comes towards the rear depress the hold noting device push it down alright go that far tell them was interested in guns at all he was just interested in Lego and building things and making things just have a happy normal childhood listen to what I'm saying to you or it's not panicking that's the main issue about joining the Marines isn't it that's the reason I didn't want him to go in I didn't see Callum as a killing machine it's too kind never put your fingers over the top because you'll lose the tips of your fingers alright bang goes that way thumb over the top of it push it down now forward assist no hand goes over the top and then just karate chop the back of it I'm happy this weapon system will save your life it could potentially save that blokes next to you alright you need to work hard on your weapon drills okay happy days quick and then straight up to the top good lads go dad crawl up crawl up now run done the Marines must learn to operate
