This is genuinely good content. The military has a publicised recruitment crisis currently. Will never understand why more units aren't producing things like this instead of the dreadful mainstream adverts.

An obvious point, but one that isn't so obvious in today's hyper-real atmosphere. I really feel things watching content like this - I can relate to being in that pack of runners and feeling like I'm about to spew. An over-produced advert showing a teenage girl mincing around a simulated training area looks completely lame by comparison

God Bless our Irish, Welsh and Scottish brothers and sisters.

We're a fantastic People and together, we can be a phenomenal power for good in the world. Come on Britain, let's really set an example.

Great info to get lads up to standards . 👍 how heavy day sack and how heavy webbing ? Is for the ranger battalion the new ranger job role or Irish rangers attached to 16

@Rangermedia

Hi, so the weight is 20kg distributed in webbing & daysack. Then rifle on top of that. No it’s not for the Ranger Battalion. It’s for the Royal Irish Regiment who hold the rank of Rangers from a regimental history reason. It comes from the Royal Irish Rangers.

@RangerMedia well better get those lads on remiodials be doing them a favour 😉 cardio so important for infantry. I worked with a lad called boily in Afghanistan ex legion lad nice switched on solider from royal Irish rangers. Can you do a vid on the annual basic fitness tests for infantry and for other ranks and what top marks are helpful for your viewers to know what's top marks to train for. Great video

As a former JNCO in an infantry Bn. Lads need to be fit to fight at the end of a loaded march, not completely chin strapped. Hence a March & shoot is a good test of that ability.

Remember at St Patricks Barracks being lapped by Sgt Eamon Coogan 🤣🤣

Can you confirm the distances and timings please? What are the minimum standards? Cheers

Who is RSM of the Bn now and msp/Dcoy csm? Pipey Mitchell is a mate.

What happens the lads if they fail? Out of the Bn ?

Any one got an idea for solid times for this? Risk assessment: some weighted carries, rope climbs, bear/leopard crawls might help in the mix, get am idea of what's happening in the upper body? Was there more training today in the day? Cheers

Risk assessment test is specific to tests conducted later in the course. Mainly moving across undulating ground in wales with equipment/weight.

Wonderful to see such high standards being maintained, one of the best conventional infantry regiments of the British army! Keep the woke brigade out!

Train in approach. Serving in 16 Brigade alongside the Parachute Regiment and Gurkha's, two units which train their own recruits in Basic training. So they can invest at the very start, with the Parachute regiment also having P company as a course to further train their recruits. Royal Irish recruits (Rangers) don't have this and are spread across the rest of the line Infantry, during basic training. The Ranger Cadre is designed to train in and tie up any training deficiencies and prepare the guys for service in 16 Brigade.

Point to note, there will be some shouting on the final episode for our final session. It's the only way to effectively mimic the stress of operations in a safe environment.

It explained within each video. The course is called the “Ranger Cadre” it has been since 91, when the current Regiment was formed by the Royal Irish Rangers. Happy to explain when people ask to sort out any confusion. The Rank of Ranger was given to all private soldiers in the Royal Irish Regiment to honour the heritage of all Rangers who served in the Royal Irish Rangers. We also have Rangers day on the 1st July each year.
