The Royal Marines and Commando training is amongst the toughest in the world and produces elite fighting units.
If 1000 Ukrainians have passed that training then Russia is going to have a very bad time soon.
Expect a lot of shit to get blown up way behind enemy lines…
Yep! That’s a shit-ton of kick-ass headed to fuck Russian shit up!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
They were trained in amphibious landings - using inflatable boats to conduct beach raids - and will now head to the frontline.
The commandos were trained the use of Next Generation Light Anti-Tank Weapons (NLAW) and Stinger anti-aircraft missiles - as well as the use of mortars and drones for reconnaissance, and explosive demolition of obstacles such as Dragon’s Teeth anti-vehicle fortifications.
Although some of the Ukrainian trainees already had experience in the armed forces or on the frontline, many are civilian volunteers with no military background.
One of the recently trained Ukrainian marines said the course from the Royal Marines was “far more intense that I expected”, and added: “All the way through, our British instructors have been beside us, showing us how to move and how to work together in a small team - this will make a difference when we return home to Ukraine.”
Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said: "The UK has led the way in training the Armed Force of Ukraine, providing world-leading training in frontline combat skills to more than 20,000 of Ukraine’s Army recruits through Operation Interflex.
“This programme of training, delivered by elite British commandos, will support Ukraine to build its own distinct marine force and expand its capability to operate in a maritime environment.”
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Good bot. How can I call you?
You know the cool thing about open source? I just navigated through the bots GitHub repo to the file src/Command/ReplyToMentionsCommand.php.
The code there says it will check a posts link if it is mentioned in a post and either TL;DR or dump out an error about the link.
However, the project also states that it will only work in certain communities, i.e certain servers.
But give it a spin on some post, none the less.
Cool, thank you. I will try that. I previously tried to mention it, without much success. But right now I have figured out how to mention it properly - for some reason, the semicolon in the bot’s name must be omitted.
