Continuing…

5th- At number five we have the Israeli Sayeret Matkal. Over the course of 20 months the candidates must go through training and diving under extreme cold conditions with no visibility of the task or what so ever, power drop operations to be conducted, demolitions and more. Those who qualify are then assigned to air, sea and land operations based on which one they did the best in. Trainees are also send out on real missions on pretty much the worst possible circumstances. They also have medical personnel on hand at all time as the training is very intense. 

4th- Moving on to umber 4 we have the South Korean special warfare command. This training course goes on for 10 days and while they're there, they experience training in low temperature, in snow because they train outside. They don't even wear shirts for training. They have to run, do sit ups and even wrestle each other in freezing snow. Everyone also needs to have a black belt in taekwondo but that's the easy part compared to the training that they are getting into. 

3rd- Training at number three is UK's special air service. Candidates of SAS are dumped in the middle of no where and told to cover 40 miles in 20 hours while carrying a 60 pound weight and a rifle. Also they have no food except just a bottle of water with them. Their uniforms and their boots are chosen to not fit them, this is done purposely to increase the weight and tension in them. For those who actually complete it in the time that is required, they then have to perform a four mile run only in half hour. 

2th- On number two we have the United Kingdom's Gorkha's. Because of their living conditions already, like the Nepalese people who apply for this British military group, they are subjected to punishing tests and this is even before they can even think of applying. But either ways the initial tests are pretty basic, they have to run some distance and do some pull up exercises and then comes their real testing. Recruits are required to run 5km while wearing a 25 km weight, and those 5km they come with a 400 m rise in incline and done through a very rocky and dusty terrain which has to be done in only 45 minutes. 

1st-On number One we have India's national security guards commandos or the NSG. Organizations within India's armed forces test potential soldiers by giving them only a days worth of food and water and then they are left in a remote place like a jungle to survive and fid their way back. Now that is just an entry level test for India's NSG. Some are so determinant to join NSG that they finish with food and water left over just to impress the people that are testing them. One training method also requires candidates to get beats from the local people as an endurance test and there is another test that they have to pass where they need to pass the target practice while drunk. This is to stimulate firing your weapon under unusual conditions. 

In this way we get to learn about some crazy and toughest training of the military all around the world. Hope you enjoy it. 

Thankyou 🌼
