    While I was with the 82nd Abn we did alot of cross training with the British Paras. We have alot of respect for them, and they have alot of respect for us (but they prefer there parachutes to ours). So yes, the relations are great.

    a lot of that's merchandising and marketing. maximum gadgets around the worldwide will bypass practice in something. it may desire to be one seminar or a team of seminars. So the companies that do those training then say we've knowledgeable the Marines. in actuality the Marines practice in MCMAP yet some gadgets could take Krav Maga seminars. they could additionally take a Gracie Combatives direction to boot. I stay in NJ and the community IKMA is a state qualified police coaching facility that regulary holds regulation Enforcement training. Their website effective properties commendations for the coaching from the State infantrymen, FBI etc etc. That mentioned I additionally comprehend of a Jiu jitsu instructor who's additionally an authorized regulation enforment coach in NJ. So the two can say that what they teach is utilized by employing NJ regulation enforcement. What they pass away out i that their structures at the instant are not used completely or that decision by employing branch could dictate their middle coaching. So does the militia or regulation enforcement interior the US practice completely in Krav? No. Have departments or divisions interior those companies knowledgeable in Krav in some unspecified time interior the destiny the two one time or ongoing. sure. Do persons in those companies use it as their middle? probable. There are few if any government or community companies everywhere outdoors of Israel that use Krav as their middle. no longer because of the fact it is not a great device, yet b/c maximum have already developed comparable structures of coaching by way of the years. wrestle sambo/Systema, MCMAP, military combatives, Sanda etc etc. i think of actual everyone takes a peek at what the different guy is doing or maybe trains in it somewhat to incorporate into their device, to no longer replace it. How thrilling could or no longer it particularly is if the Arabs did practice in Krav! LOL!!! Did hell get chilly? certainly, anybody comprehend what they do practice in?

    No because America is the current bully on the Block they always take over and rarely take critism the SAS in afganistan and the USA think they can do a better job result SAS asking to be removed

    the British dont like the way the Americans treat prisoners

    it is in the Constitution and when they do UN duties and someone else in running the show must get congress permission to be Subservient

    WW2 was a perfect the Joint chief of staff appointed Eisenhower not the British because the best man for the job was Mountbatten

    and even MacArthur called Eisenhower an Incompetent which was true he caused WW2 to go past Dec 1943

    that is what Paton and Bradley told FDR because He was in total charge

    and i for One would not like to have the Americans behind me i would feel safer if they were in front

    i think generally US and UK troops get on pretty well. when they fight alongside each other any prejudices or disagreements would go out the window anyway. from some of the books ive read, i know some brits have questioned the standard of US training but the british army prides itself on training and so this is likely to happen. apart from minor gripes id imagine they get on well. they probably pull pranks on each other, i know the SAS found it hilarious to piss in american ration packs, throw them in US tents and wait for them to explode (due to some chemicals used to cook them without heat).

    Yes and no. Unit to unit and person to person I would say yes. There is rivalries of course. Despite that both SAS and SF are equals they will still want to prove who is better, It will lead to fights in a bar but in the field when the stuff is hitting the fan they will stand side by side and kill everything that does wear their uniforms, of course there will be the debate on who killed more and the fist fighting will begin all over again.
