  • New RTE Program.

    Might be interesting.
    RTÉ2 has unveiled the trailer for its new series Special Forces: Ultimate Hell Week, which sees 24 civilians trying to complete a course designed by former members of Ireland's elite Special Forces unit, the Army Ranger Wing (ARW).
    "Let us be clear about three facts. First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm." ------- Field Marshall Wavell, April 1945.

    Not sure if the guys on the Late Late last night are exactly ex-wing

    But they were filming on the Plains a few weeks ago

    Looks like it had DF permission, there are bits inside the pistol range (for example)
