Modern Soldiers Elite

 An Old French Legionare on combat training

His unit of the French Forces is with Big Red One of the U.S. military the hardest trained main force toped only by SAS or Navy Sealy which are much tynier in numbers.

At about minute 5 he explaines the oldschool system of meeting an enemy force. They get hit, they have a security part, a defence part and an attack part of their own force.
The following manouver is attacking below the machine gun fire of the defence part, while the security part gives medical help, prepares the retreat of the wounded and dead and awaits reinforcements and supplies.
This is when you see soldiers with their face in the mud below barb wire and a machine gun firing over them in the Hollywood movies. The enemy will fire at them, if no John Wick Punisher or James Bond took out either the Centurions or Big Boss way before.

First of all, you shell not get hit by the enemy, like the only way to get out of an ambush, is to get into an ambush in the first place. If your armour can hold the enemies fire and your own firepower can out gun the enemey, you will stop right in the ambush and drive off after having returned fire. Otherwise, you have to see the ambush and ambush the ambush.
The other option is dieing.

This means, reconnaissaince is way more important than having an intakt supply line and the mud in the face part of the training turns out to be way more important than clear wording in good speach on the radio.
It also means that hide and seek is again after many years of absence a realy important spare time activity everywhere. If you can avoid your "I was drunk" embarrassing affaire in a Wal Mart shop layout, by spotting her first coming through the most possible entrance, without getting attantion onto you that will unveil your position and movement, you made it Provos Centurion level. Deadhead is .... not appropriate in that scenario, it was your fault after all. 
Try to move silently in a wood way after making way into the rest room in the barraks, because we are naturaly more used to an urban building than a wood with all covered ground. If you manage to become the Wal Mart or Barraks floors, you might become the wood and later become Bruce Lees Water in the mug reaching Ninja level of excellence.

If it is fun, training is easier. Bullies will train other things than the Good Guys and Devils breath, walk, and feel way different in Aubange or hopefully still Fort Riley, than in which Hell's Kitchen they ever left from.

...to one day come back and capture the stove...


I am not sure, if he himeself understands how American his showcase is. This way, the first settlers build Boston, the track West made it, slaves ran off from the Carribean and Confederate farms to the Free United States, the civial war was won and countles humans ran as free men from Tyrannic rule in the Wild Wild West where Bandits found death.
You can get all used gear in a US Wall Mart, too....just the use reason you create yourself. Give us a good reason and we start a war. We are all Americans, since the French gave the Statue of Liberty.
