Video for the Argentines!!!! Quite good actually

Found this video on another forum. I found it quite good actually, although some of the footage must be quite old. Do the Argentines still use FN FAL? The snowboarding alpine troops are experiemental to say the least!!!

Enjoy. :smiley:

I assume “Por La Patria” means “for the patriot”, could anyone confirm?

As I know, “Por La Patria” means “For the Country” or “For our Country”. In Spanish it’s very similar to Romanian: “Pentru Patrie”

That is a pretty cool video, well timed to fit the music!

Thanks is a promotional video for the argentine army is a mix of old and new footage. Yes the FN- Fal is still in good use in the Argentine army and is still manufactured by the state factory Fabricaciones Militares (FM), however there are a incresed number of M-16A2.

Very nice in the end the Heavy self propelled 155mm Howitzer Tam VCA at shooting.

Por la Patria means “for the Fatherland”.

“For the Fatherland?”

Sounds very German!!!

“Vor de Vaterland”

Well , I dont know if there is some influence but that is wich means.

another video, the “argentine” Hummer, named unsurprisingly “Gaucho” ( nor quiet original :? )

The columbians probably are most experince in jungle fighting, even that experience was not enough to eliminate the guerrilla wich still asolate a good portion of that sud-american country.
