The Bloodiest Battle of the Chosen Company | Pt.1

To capitalize on the sweeping success of Operation Pervo-1 the Chosen Company with the other units of the 59th brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have decided to execute a bold large-scale offensive that would see the entirety of the company deployed on the battlefield. Four teams would assault, trying to push through in the village of Pervomaiske, just 10 kilometers away from Donetsk. This operation, nicknamed Pervo-2, would become their hardest and bloodiest battle.

We finally managed to lift the ban on the video. We would dearly ask you to share the video with everybody you know to overcome the consequences of being shadow-banned for three days. Thank you all for patiently waiting and sorry again for the delay. We really hope you enjoy the video.

"Is that a freindly drone?"
"Yeah that's ours."
"Oh that's reassuring." * Looks up and sees five different drones. *

Drones, air burst mortars, snipers, machine gunners, artillery, mines, booby-traps; fuck that, these lads are so fucking brave, I couldn’t do it.

[kevinb]

These men are a different breed of human. I have a hard time processing all of this, i cannot imagine actually being there and keeping my composure. Dudes are absolute animals!

[victorstock]

Very disturbing footage showing how modern drone warfare is nothing like we could ever imagine. What is also disturbing is the amount of wannabe keyboard warriors commenting who think they are tactical rambos who aren't there in swerltering heat, experiencing combat stress & wounds while navigating vegetation in 360 degree battlefield. Hope you all can survive this war!

Imagine if we had this kind of video quality for WW2..

[kingsofleon]

“That way cūnt, THAT WAY”

“So we organise suppressive fire”

Gotta love the Aussies

[ponowar]

The combination of the body cam footage synchronized with the high quality drone footage was absolutely incredible. These men are warriors and extremely courageous.

Singing "Dumb Ways to Die" is honestly smart. Paratroopers came up with Blood Upon the Risers not only to lighten the mood but to remember everything that could go wrong in a jump. Using Dumb Ways to Die to do the same is genuinely a good way to keep everything that could happen in your mind.

Dave is such an amazing leader, one in a million. So many character traits and skills demonstrated for excellent leadership.

[DisgustedAmericanMatt]

Ryan’s constant calm voice over the radio is truly legendary. RIP to the two fallen soldiers of Provo 2.

[plurplursen]

This is super intense. 10-1 outgunned. Waves of endless drones. Mass casualties. Loss of communication. Still, the team is intact, training takes over... Can't wait for episode II

[christopherray]

I was deployed to Iraq from 04 to 05 and this is truly terrifying. A 3D battlefield is insane.

[cameron]

"Because it fuckin grows everywhere man" was such a vibe. LOL

[DonnaLloydVent]

I’m ex military and watching these guys accounts and the drone footage was truely harrowing. They are the heart and soul of the infantry.
I found myself asking where is their fire support, where are the mortars to pin down the rain of fire they are taking. Huge respect to them all.

[NoahSoelberg]

The young Aussie leader on bravo team is hella good at getting the older guys to listen, damn! Mad respect to all the guys fighting on all the teams here!

[natopeacekeeper]

Thanks everyone who took the time to put this video together. I was a soldier in the Army but never saw combat. Really illustrative of the chaos on a modern battlefield, especially with the drone threat. I hope everyone recovered and a heartfelt thank you for what you are doing. The people of Ukraine know they are not alone with so many people coming to help them. The international community should be ashamed of themselves for not taking a harder stance against Russia when everyone knew what was coming. Please stay as safe as you can. Watching from North Carolina, USA.

As a Veteran this video has me stirred up something hard. I salute every one of you. War today is evolving as fast as technology can take it. You boys did a fine job of evolving as well. With so many variations of weapons aimed and firing at you, while you still move forward towards your mark and mission, the bravery youve shown boggles the mind. I am inspired and humbled. God Bless all of you. I pray each of you lives a long, fruitful life. This video is an incredible insight into the challenges our warriors face while in combat. This kept me gripped and without blinking. I couldve bent steel with my clinched butthole...no joke. Salute.

[Swaynester]

This is a great team leader. He's always communicating and also leading, getting up moving with rounds going everywhere, showing other men that we can do this. That we will do.

Incredible.

[Masculine-Media]

i‘m a sergeant in the army. massive respect to all guys involved and may god be with you
