Raw Video: Marines in gunbattle with Taliban
Marines with 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines have been fighting the Taliban throughout Afghanistan's Sangin Valley for three months. They experience enemy contact almost daily and have gained tremendous ground. In a recent operation, Marines and Afghan soldiers fought through an enemy ambush and built a new patrol base. Marines continue to work with Afghan security forces and Afghan government authorities in the area. Video by Cpl. Daniel Blatter

Looking good 3/5. You guys had one of the hardest offensives in the war. I remember seeing you guys come into Dwyer with brand new FROG gear as we were leaving. I kept up with you guys and read about all the sacrifices you made in Sangin. Dont forget, 3/7 paved the way for you guys. I had some good friends that were WIA before you guys came on deck. Its been a year since I was there but I wont forget the fallen. I know that you wont either. Semper fi
Proud of our marines, my brother comes out in this video
Do combat camera Marines record all this?
I really did HATE the feeling I'd get when that bolt locks into place after finishing a clip in a heavy fire fight... Semper Fi brothers!
that uhy1 strafe was pretty cool 2.75 cal rockets ftw
whos recording?
The M16A4 is the standard weapon of the Marines (usmc)? sorry for my terrible english. i am from germany. :)
I know right?I was thinking what the heck is that, but it looks like it is just hanging off one of the wires reaching across whatever compound they are in
@callsignshirtman They still use those?
@viperq Yeah what's up w/the old relic Huey?? LOL!
cant hear any return fire
Two words to say many: Semper Fi
@timgoat556 There's a feature on alot of cameras called 'zoom.' This is where a camera can see from really, really far away. This allows the camera to record footage from a safe distant, however theres a sacrifice in picture quality. And please don't reply with the 'camera can see that far away' with all our advances in technology!
1:00 what kind of chopper is that?
semper fi
MAKE ME A MARINE NOW IM READY
another day at the office huh?
@bkkrazy1 Wow horay?? Thats really bad, And yeah i agree Marines had to earn that right to say that. Seems like just yesterday I was counting down from years and now down to just months of me Joining The Marines. Goes by fast.
I'm proud of the Marine Corps
0:47 Tactical light bulb?
@MrGeorge324 Oorah man, I'm in the same place as you, I can't wait til I get old nough, cya there when i do.
@klm607 we dont have Blackhawks like the Army, we just keep on upgrading hueys. Same thing with the huey cobras.
I'm so fucking proud of them.
3 dislikes must be a combo of taliban, serbs and russians

@mdjr0621 Settle down BEAVIS!! Get a grip! I just didn't realize there were still any of them in service anywhere.
@tjtucson1 nice way of saying it my brother is in this video too..
@LemurInBlack Army says Hooah, Marines say OORAH
OOORAHHHH
@ImtheDesertFox Huey, Marines still use it.
@KarlosSanatana yeah cause it'd be realistic for the cameraman to stand up in the open and show the whole area. or even go interview a taliban....
Our boys doing what they do best. God save the queen.
OOORRAAAHHHHH!!!!!!
I can't wait for boot camp, one month to go!
I don't see a battle or the taliban. Looks like their shooting and shouting to put on a good show for the camera.....
@madamadam158 Its actually a formation to provide a steady stream of fire onto an enemy position therefore keeping the opposing force from firing back or even moving out of cover. This is reality, not your xbox. Way too much call of duty kid.
hooah
& it is pronounced more along the lines of Errrahh!!! :)
I find most of these comments absurd. These are real Marines, in a real fight. AND, most of them will tell you it's not "fun" - nor something to aspire to do - it is rather their "duty." They are the best at it. To become a Marine you have to adhere to an honor code as well. The crassness of these comments is not befitting to the Corps. Just sayin.
@marleneissexy I've heard worse. I have accualy heard someone say "Ewrah" Swear on my life
@Guyver89 I don't own a games console. I agree, there can be long range fights but with assault rifles? Doesn't even look like their trying to advance. Your arguement is based on opinion e.g. troops caring for reporters and the talibans morals. I don't know much about WW2 footage, however I will look into it. Finally, I won't zip my smart lips because there are too many dumb... no, that's too harsh misinformed lips talking, hence allowing this illegal war to go on. I assume your misinformed.

YUUUUT.. rah devils
@KarlosSanatana so ultimately you are accusing America's finest of faking a battle, that Corporal Daniel Blatter uploaded a make believe battle onto the Marine Corps youtube channel and tried to make people think it was real. You obviously don't know anything about being a Marine
@timgoat556 Obviously!
@LemurInBlack stick to ur video games..lol. OHHRAAA!
YUUUTT.. Rah devils
