I agree with u hernry on the video and am proud of our frontline troops.

I agree with you giles14 but what do you do when you are shot of the proper assets. What's make you excel in what ever you do is not much and better things you av available to you but how good you make of the little you have.

Even the developed army can't av it all.

Guys you must watch these video, tester night when I finished downloading it, I just skipped through the video because it's about 43 mind video.

It shows every thing about the lives of troops in sambisa forest & CION.

At the beginning of the video soldiers where digging for water when they came under fire by BHT but they repelled the attack. Accidentally it looks like there was a friendly fire or a soldier being mistakenly ran of by a MBT.

Another part of the video I like is the tactical movement in which troops move inside Sambisa and the position of the MBT,MRAPs and Gun trucks are stationed in area of operation in case of attack.

And in the video, it shows how the NAF helps.in logistics supplies and evacuation of rescued civilians through air assets. A Lot of things you get to see in the video.

Big ups @fynline for these.....!

giles14:
I totally agree with u was a great enlightenment.

but 4 things disappointed me.
1.d Vickers tanks we need to replace dem
2.d destruction of grains wen we have starving n malnourished children in IDP camps
3.lack of proper communication gadgets eg firing on advanced troops which if der was good radio communication would b avoided.
4.lastly d Augusta 109 light skin choppers have no business dere.d commander towards d end was speaking of d chopper being fired at.dis ought to b d job of d super puma or maybe d mi17.


over all it was nice seeing d stuff our troops was made of.
more of dis videos are needed pls.

I also found interesting that even in the frontline, troops practiced marksmanship, i have never seen this with other militaries. Never!!


Those blokes are not short of assets, i agree that more can be done, but they are well equipped and well supplied. I only wish we use a lot of IFVs, like the Turks in Syria. Combining both Tank, IFV, MRAP and heavily armed hilux vehicles.


Not even the british were adequately armed in Afghanistan.

Henry240:


I love our military, it's beginning to feel like a sickness!!!



I would have been so angry if i were from any other country in Africa but Nigeria.


God bless our military!!!

Henry240:


I thoroughly enjoyed the video!

It was not a friendly fire, we had one KIA. The soldiers were shouting RPGs shouldn't be fired, that we had guys in-front repelling the attacks.


I thought know person noticed that, our defensive parameters show that the Nigerian army is a well trained, well organised for. No amount of media propaganda can take that away. I just wish we had more IFVs though.


The defensive parameters were well organised and spaced just like you see in all British army videos.


The videos shows the importance of Light Utility Helicopters in operations. That guy came from Bama, he flew from Bama to Sambisa, then back to Bama, then to the Air Base.


Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Top top video. This is the 1st real tactical vid seen of the front line. The army seems to have properly adjusted to the BHT tactics. I particularly like and admire how the commander was in full control of the camp, while also mingling well with the boys. Impressive.

Odunayaw:
ur first paragraph na im sweet my belle pass

NA!!The pride of the nation!

Henry240:


Yeah, we badly need IFVs. Atleast 200 units. I'll say 500 units in the next 10 years in both tracked and wheeled configuration.

Unfortunately, a soldier was killed by friendly fire..

Yeap they are digging for water and that process of them doing is that they are gathering and purifying the water .

That particular place is known because of its oasis so troops to watch these cloth, take there bath and wash military vehicles. I av posted a video where soldiers do stop at that particular, it's a popular stop inside Sambisa forest to get water.

They don't stay over there because there are no trenches or defensive, they only do watching/laundry there and leave.

Yeap. They do laundry and wash/clean utility vehicles and other hard wares like MBT & light tanks. As you can see in the video.

Why ask.....?
