We've got rusty F-18s that are falling apart, helicopters that can not stay in the air, submarines that set themselves on fire and now rockets that don't work... Now, can you say brainwashed officer ?

In other words, Canadian Forces and British Forces still have a great deal in common!

They are French Canadian troops...

Yep, looks like. If they're regulars, they're probably Vandoos of the Royal 22nd Regiment (Royal 22e Régiment), like Maestro said. I didn't know there were Vandoos at Gagetown though. I think Gagetown is mainly RCR territory. More likely they're out of Valcartier, but I've been plenty wrong before.

Also, I don't think that's Afghanistan as someone said. I think those boys are at the range somewhere.

I did as the video says it was from Afghanistan and that they were French troops (which there aren't in Afghanistan) so I went from there.

France currently has over 1,000 troops in Afghanistan, but mainly in the support role. They previously had about 200 special forces troops there, but recently withdrew them.

 

[Gnomey]

Well you learn something everyday, I wouldn't of thought they of sent any there but I suppose as it is now NATO they have to provide a certain contribution.

 

[Nonskimmer]

Earlier on in the conflict, planes from the carrier Charles de Gaulle participated in the action too apparently.

 

[Matt308]

They actually are sending some Rafales too in the reconnaisance role.

Are french special forces comprised of the fastest runners?

Well, the 22e is mainly based in Valcartier. But sometimes they go on exercises in other bases... When their trucks/tanks can rool down the Boulevard Henry IV without breaking down ! That video comes from an exercise in Gagetown.

Ah.
