I’m proud to be an American.
Now let’s work to unite again and stop fighting among ourselves. Get the corruption out and make America the greatest nation on Earth, better than it already is.
We will not walk away.
Сразу видно вояки, все в одной куче сидят,один прилет и ни кого нет
You cannot defeat 🇷🇺Russia 😅😅
Russia Russia 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺💪
NATO pee pees 😂😂😂😂😂
With politician like Biden and Generals like Milley, the US won’t be winning any wars. A study of the Afghanistan pullout details just how frightening incompetent our government is.
This is NATO’s Nordic Response exercise, which takes place every 2 years in Norway. This year’s Nordic Response exercise involves over 20,000 troops, over 50 ships and over 100 aircraft from 13 NATO countries. Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland (new member joined NATO in 2023), France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden (new member joined NATO in 2024), United Kingdom and United States.

GOD BLESS YOU NBC STAFF FROM THE NEWEST STAFF MEMBERS TO THE HIGHEST IT CAN NOT BE DONE WITHOUT YOU ALL THANN YOU SO MUCH FOE YOUR COVERAGE ALWAYS AND AS LESTER HOLT SAYS TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER.
I’m not sure what’s worse, storming a beach during the winter, or doing a JFE into the snow at night with combat equipment
Russia: Threatens to take Alaska.
US: Ironically it’s cheaper to train in Norway.
You do realize there’s military bases in Alaska and there are regular military exercises there also do not comment if you do not know what you are talking about
@@stephendmccormickjr8200 That’s the joke. Normally they would train in Alaska, but it turns out they could save money by training with the Norwegians.

Artic wheater got facts along history.
God bless and protect those marines and all marines.
Then I suggest you vote for Trump
God hates the USA
Balt-ops were such an awesome experience
Wow, thats the first time they’ve used AAV-7s in the water since 2021.
Those are Italian AAV7s
make everything snd i mean everything snow white.
If they run out of bullets just ask russia for some extra😂
Don’t worry americans you will back where you came from to the Iand of Mexicans 🙂
So proud of my son! ❤

NATO is a business and not an ally.
Have to secure and protect those natural resources
That’s right.
Preparing to give Santa some freedom
This exercise took place as far north as Northern coast of Alaska. I am a Norwegian National Guardsman who recently stood guard duty in the harbour were the USS Gunston Hall docked prior to this exercise. The ship I imagine these marines embarked from.
The soldiers families and the American tax payer should know that their soldiers in regards to proper clothing are very ill-equiped for fighting war in Scandinavia in the winter months.
Just when did my guard duty with them, we had to keep them warm in hour cars and so on. Provide hot drinks and so on. With pleasure of course, cause they are all really nice people. Those I met anyway.
I remember speaking to one of their officers that the soldiers the dispatched out in the cold with us. Required more clothing that a t-shirt, summer uniform, a fleecejacket, thin mittens and gloves. I am not surprised of a few of them cought a severe cold or pnumonia.
Our winter gear is light years better.
As a fellow Norwegian home guardsmen who took part in a guard duty for the first time as my first mission for the home guard. I was formally a home guard youth who took a 3 week course and that is how i got into the home guard.
But i was on a mission in trondelag to watch over when the us marines dropped off some water tanks and trucks to take part of exercise some place close and i had fun on that mission even though I knew none of the squad mates before but i quickly got to know them and get into the rutine the most fun was talking to some of the yanks (american) whenever they were going to town to drink at a bar or sleep at a hotel and it was quite a sight.
First off was that i was suprised that most of them were small compared to when you see them on the news ans such i always saw them as big tall muscle men but those i saw were muscle men but smaller than i had thought they would be.
Funny thing about the yanks who went to town to drink is that when they came back to the guard gate one of the yanks had a little to much to drink that night so he ended up puking from the back seat of the renting car they drove and it reached all the way to the front window of the car so on the next day we could see him on the cameras cleaning the living heck out of the car. Poor guy!
And other fun time was when another group of yanks came back to the main gate the car they drove had spike free tires so when they approched the gate the car slipped on the ice and they managed to crash the car on the gate and left a dent on it but sadly i wasn’t around when those 2 events happend as i had the day shift and it happened on the night shift.
One thing i just have to say about the american clothing for winter operation is that the marines and navy guys probally were at a warm place like texas or Florida when the ship departed so its likly they forgot to pack proper winter clothing but i must say that they could handle the cold pretty well considering they only wore a t shirt under their uniforms while i wore a net upper and lower under cotton upper and lower and i was freezing on some days when i was standing guard over the gate.
Great Comment! Servus! What if US become freind with India and Pakistan. Then we’ll be good!!!
Russian Psyop
its better that they figure that out now than in an actual battle
@MacSquire2 I’m not sure about Scandinavia but I know in France in winter gets 20 degrees fahrenheit. You would need heavy coat.
I’m 3 days in on getting back in shape so I can join the military 11bravo here I come 😎🇺🇸
Bruh pick another job in the army please.
Infantry? Prepare to have back problems at 30 years old. If you want to be in the field, I’d recommend looking at being an armor crewman.
Few can handle the cold and when a wall is built few understand the difference between you and everybody else who wants to say it’s cold outside
Fighting for what? Wasting your life for what?
That is quite personal question for everyone, but in general for all that, that unites us as a society.
I love u Subscribers pless 🇬🇧🇱🇷
This is where they hide the real area 51
What a time to be alive 😮
Some of my Norwegian friends trained with them, the americans were sub-par at best..
Its so sad to see that we need to build up our military and exersice to prepare for another world war because of a selfish psycopath dictator thats is invading other countries… I thought the world learned the lession back in 2 world war
The beginning of World War 3
Why would they need to train there. At this point Russia shouldn’t even have a military left According to news channels like this one.
true, we’ve run out of soldiers yet nato is increasing its presense. nothing shady here
@@HeavyCaliberRuckus That is what happens when you start invading other nations, your neighbors starts to arm up.
Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the USA taking part, over a hundred aircraft, over 50 ships and boats.
Sweden and Finland have got right in without even stumbling, and the same day Sweden joins the alliance they coordinate with German and Belgian fighter jets to intercept Russian planes flying through the Baltic Sea with no logged flightplan, their competence and immediate integration is impressive.
I mean to be fair, Sweden and Finland have been with the West at least ever since the fall of the Soviet Union. Taking part in exercises and guarding their airspaces is pretty normal
@@cassu6more accurately Sweden has always been ‘a western nation’, but Finland has always been a nation between east and west, but has also always had to play things safe with Russia, while ideologically aligning alot more with the west.
Finland has never wanted to be ‘in the east’ and Russia has coerced Finland many times.
what I’m getting at is that there has always been a competent Finnish military, which exists only because of Russia.
guarding the airspace is everyday and Russia sometimes deliberately violates Finnish airspace. Though I doubt they’ll do so as easly now.
Are you saved? Did you know that Jesus died for U? Jesus died for all your previous sins and your future sins! To be saved, all you have to do is BELIEVE in your heart that Jesus is the son of God, and that He died on the cross for ALL your sins, and then God raised Him from the dead! If you repent with a true heart, Jesus will accept you into Heaven as His child.
100% marines. Camo doesn’t match the terrain.
Yall didnt bring the fins??? Smh
Royal Marines have traditionally deployed to Norway for decades to protect NATO’s northern flank
still looks less cold than an ac130 in the air
and it doesn’t give you cancer nearly as fast
Getting ready for russia.
Last time, the US Military went in Alaska, they shot each other
They must feel like stormtroopers
The strongest fighting force on planet earth!
God bless our troops.

Looks like another “Cold War!” 🥁
Door’s that way.

Soy boy is like wow look at all these men
They/Them😂
Of course they are practicing war against Russia

Seems that this landing party would be taken out by drones and 152mm artillery real quick.
Or not
Need a technology to create a snow avalanche that can be used against bad guys
yeah, literally any conventional explosive
Getting ready for Biden’s war I see
the us is so bad in the artic climate its a joke 🤣
Learn history for once instead of commenting these senseless things.
hahahahaha@@economicallyunviablekitten
Water wars
Much respect to the Marines from an old fart USAF puke. They can fight anywhere.
I grew up playing halo, and I recently got back into it, and I wish the us government would create real augmented soldiers to deal with terrorists, even have real spartan armor besides dropping from the earths atmosphere.
The original purpose of Spartans were to stop the rebellion against their halo republic, I wish we had something like that
War is here just look at all of this
I hope Finland’s inclusion in nato will provide us with even more capabilities and training for our marines as they have undoubtedly the best equipped and prepared cold weather force
USA has been training in Finland from 2016, there is bilateral DCA between USA and Finland.
I’d hate having to fight a war in the snow like that seems like it’d be a blood bath for all parties involved
I find it ironic that they pray God when they serve and give their lives for a government that works for the devil.
America is losing influence. After the blunders of Iraq and Afghanistan, a huge financial crisis in 2008, the election of a race baiting community organizer and social media platforms that have divided the country, its influence is waning.
Never miss a chance to throw in a global warming comment.
Лучше бы вы занялись своими наркоманами в стране…
Hey that’s me lol
God bless NATO and the USA
MARINES Putting up the fight, ARMY fighting for their pronouns.
Then, God made the Marines
Мы вас сотрем , изнеженные европейцы 😂
should see the sitrep in moscow lol. oil fields been torched since the 12th behold a pale horse..
Zelenskyy got our money and equipment, now he wants our young men…. And America is stupid enough to send them
That looks really cool
Unsurprising bootlicking propaganda from American news media.
Unsurprising cope from a Putin simp. Go hang out on RT and drink vodka
You know what I’m going to buy some Norway salmon!
If NATO (USA) directly goes to war with nuclear armed Russia, hundreds of millions (if not billions) of people will die.
Storming a beach with helis is suicide in drone warfare
Multicam Alpine better.
US Soldiers can fight anywhere.
Nothing can defeat them.
Vietnam? Afghanistan? Libya?
@@coffeelink943
U.S causalities we’re much less and what is Vietnam, Libya and Afghanistan today? Nothing 3rd world countries with no military or GDP. Looks like a win to me.
Lets just put our information on the internet thats smart.
Awesome to see so many countries come together for cold-weather exercises
Not a great sign in terms of global matters
Norway is not the artic lol
They’ve been sending guys out there since 2018, this is nothing new. But of course the media will have you believe…
HAIL VICTORY
RIP russia
Global warming is a myth
❤❤❤
let all the illegal immigrants and politicians fight for us.
Gotta love the Marines in whites
Wow good job now you know how Canadians train every time
“anywhere we go I know we can fight *SNIFF* ” goat herder warfare isnt the same as fighting russia gentlemen
This definitely is part 2 of The Cold War
These man don’t know what drones do yet. Russians do. I know we’ll win. But we’ll sure get an everlasting taste of this new unmanned warfare.
this is 90% Nato, MAGA us troops **** off you have backstabbed us in UKRAINE gl with china without nato.
Why are Marines in Europe?
Any and every way is a good thing – more money for the Military Industrial Complex.
Better be getting ready to go help Ukraine
