  • My father served in the Malayen Scouts SAS in 1951 to 1953 . He is one of the troops in the photo at the start of the video on the back row .
  • @kevinsame
    Captain Price and Soap McTavish are my favorite SAS soldiers
  • @BruceMusto
    and then you have gentlemen like Christian Craighead in Nairobi, who, by their individual courage just keep adding to the SAS legend.
  • @urajoke
    As a Kenyan Im deeply thankful for their service 🇰🇪 🇬🇧
  • My best mate’s great uncle was Jock Lewes, who assisted Stirling in the founding of the SAS. Incredible story
  • @Shoelessjoe78
    People would be surprised what reserve units can bring to the table. On multiple occasions throughout my 20+ year career it's been reserve units that have been the more capable asset. This is especially true when it comes to engineering, S-2, and S-4 operations. And on one rare occasion a combat arms Marine Reserve Company that was blessed with an unholy high percentage of NCAA college athletes. They absolutely ran rings around their active counterpart.
  • The background music is so reminiscent of Call of Duty 4 which is very fitting given the video is about SAS
  • You should do a Warographics video on The Troubles in Northern Ireland
  • @CrvrMb
    The tank episode with Simon giggling over Little Willy will always take the cake for me. 😌
  • @Valhalla88888
    David Stirling founded the SAS, his close friend Lord Lovet founded the Commandos and LRDG, along with his other friend Fitzroy MacLean joined the SAS, these Scottish lads were the real MacCoy❤
  • @doodskie999
    Why are they so famous? Captain Price: bravo sizlx going dark
  • My grandfather was in Merrill’s Marauders and he had awful PTSD the rest of his life - can you do one on that special forces group? I mean you covered the topic a bit already in that jungle warfare video
  • Having a (fictional) ledgend is an advantage . E.G: the Gurkers who the Argentinians were convinced would eat them. So they ran whenever the Gurkers showed up.
  • @ItsJakeStuff
    Always good to open YouTube and see a new Simon vid uploaded only minutes ago 🥳
  • @devailica
    In stark contrast JTF2 is almost unheard of and almost ghosts despite their high kill count.
  • @quigglebert
    Would love a vid on the Royal Marines, specifically the Commando arm of the royal marines (though an honourable mention to the musicians wouldnt be amiss)
