darkchild130 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Here's a video of Telic 10, we didnt have any reporters on patrol with us as they refused to leave camp. I'd like to point out that 90% of the contact footage in this video was taken by my platoon, lots of other platoons got lots of fighting too but we were the only people who bothered to film anything. The dark, very loud footage at about 2 minutes and again near the end was from my vehicle, filmed by mac my oldest Rifleman. If you look closely, the third 30mm muzzle flash lights up my handguard, and you can just about hear me shout "magazine" in the second clip of it. I hope you like it.

Misfit Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 How much damage did the Warrior sustain when it was hit by that IED, around the 1 minute mark? Loved the "Does this look like a defeated army? That's complete ######s". What happened to the chap around 4:30 - hot shell chasing down his smock? Link to post Share on other sites
darkchild130 Posted February 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 I think that particular IED was premature and didnt penetrate the armour. The bloke with the brass down his back is Kevin Baglin, one of my good friends. He was later in the SUN newspaper, sporting a huge neck scar that he got the last time we got ambushed. He caught some IED frag in the neck. Incidentally, the other guy in that particular clip is sporting an airsoftin foregrip that i bought him from zeroone! Life imitates art imitating life.

Night_raven Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Good vid,.. Brings home the truth about War. ... As for the Attack, when they're all under the table, i couldn't help but laugh when i thought "All they could do was knock a clock down" Still, nice vid. Link to post Share on other sites

rancidrambo Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Some of us still remember you're out there. It sounds cliched but I hope you all get back in one piece (indivdually; not one big flat piece). There are people still in the UK who are aware of what you are doing and respect you for it.
