Indian Special Forces

[Knight 07]

So who will train them when the Army has zero expertise?

I dont want Marcos to join them..i just want then to be trained by Marcos.

Or maybe we can ask the help of US Marines or British Marine Commando.Like How MARCOS were initially trained

I think now that they have done what they have …some units of Guards or Grenadiers should be converted.

I am for a regionless,religionless unit for airborne conversion rather than choosing the best infantry unit of that time to convert.

Bro the whole concept of Para regiment in India is flawed.We cannot compare the airborne units of US or UK with india in terms of capabilities of men .Here almost all of the regular Para men are SF wannabes who didn’t got alloted SF slots as there was none .There is high probability that many kf these men might got selected into SF if they were send to some SF regiment for trials.I assume you understood what i meant.This is a serious flaw in our system.May be we could be losing best men for SF in some cases just because there was no vacancy in SF that year and only airborne was available and after clearing probation in airborne many might not go for just another probation.
Btw i know a guy who served both in 1st SF and 4th(in both airborne time and later SF time also).
We need to find solutions for this one also.For that dismantling of the system is needed.We should give men options to choose for airborne or SF for trials instead of unavailablity of option system at present.
Also converting a normal infantry unit to airborne may dilute the standards so either conduct trials from entire infantry units or atleast limit it from ghatak units or QRTs or raise them fresh .

Weapons handling skills have gotten better, but notice how he is struggling to get the pistol out of the holster? They need a better holster. They need something like this which clears the plate carrier and provides enough leverage when drawing the pistol.

Whatever you feel about them but you cant disagree that they are definitely trying really hard to upgrade and hire instructors to train.

does anyone else also suspect that the recent mine explosion in which 7 jihadis were killed along with one porki caption was a cross border raid by SF?

How great would it be if the attitude of "aura of invincibility" actually percolated down to using the best tactics and equipment as well.

But I dream..

Buddy there are 2 professions all over the world where the military over hypes the manliness or supehumaness bcoz of the only reason ie occupational hazards.

One is SF and second is fighter pilots.

Eating glass is a exercise which brings them invincibility.

Similarly,in AF fighter pilots are regularly told they are the best in the world..which makes them feel …oh yeaaah i am indeed the best.

Which is ok if you think about it..both professions have a high risk of death and injury.

So for that i believe you need these guys to see the best and train with them like the Europeans do with Americans.

In a closed system like Indian where very less people actually interact it becomes very hard to be humble and learn new things.

I am actually very surprised at the fact that inspite of regular exercises with US/French SOF for years altogether now, things have still remained stagnant.

Well,Major Jacob does give a good idea about what attitude are our SF groomed to and what perspective do they carry to such exercise.

All SF units have some sort of crazy drinking tradition,
In toby gutteridge's memoir he says that in SBS, a squadron has a tradition of drinking from a vessel made up of a 105mm howitzer shell.

In Pete Winner's memoir SAS's B Squadron had the tradition of each new member drinking a flaming Drambuie. Half filling a standard spirit glass with the liqueur, and igniting it. A nine-inch Bunsen flame would then shoot upward from the liquid and the drinker had to place the flaming glass to his lips and drain the liqueur all in one sip.

Similarly Red Squadron has it's own drinking tradition.
