Great vids of Canadian 'Red Devils' fighting in Afghanistan.
The documentary crew following these guys are brave as hell too!
I know war isn't a video game, I'm not trying to glamorize it or anything, but it's very interesting to watch them work in coordination. Like the old Army saying 'Shoot, move, and communicate'
You can actually hear the return fire, bullets 'whizzing' and even a few RPG shots.
In one of the vids, the Canadians are assisting the Afghan military in an assault, look at the difference in training and ability, they way they shoot etc.
Canada may not make a big deal about it, but they really do have a deadly efficient military.

The camera shot of the guy with the heavy-looking squad automatic, standing high up on the wall spraying the field with bullets....just awesome. I hope they release a full blown movie like 'Gunner Palace'.
