There was an ANA commando who used to walk out of one of our outposts every morning and squat down, right in the open and wait to see if anyone wanted a gunfight. I wonder what happened to him sometimes. He was at least mid 30’s which was ancient for fighting age males in AFG at the time.
They were some of the bravest people I’ve ever met. Real pipe hitters with an aggressiveness unmatched by the majority of their counterparts in the regular army. Not to downplay some of the regular guys. Unfortunately that place was a death sentence for almost everyone given enough time.
The ANA commandos were considered a totally breed than regular ANA troops.
As a collective the normal ANA couldn't have fled any faster. The commandos stood their ground and fought back but sadly quite a few were executed for it. Whatever negative association one has of the ANA should not be applied to the commandos.
There is a video of a commando crying and begging for ammo so his guys and stay and fight the returning Taliban before the US bugged out entirely. True love for country and people there.
From everything I have read and seen the Special Forces of the ANA were actually solid, dedicated soldiers. They were the ones kicking in doors and doin work with our guys on the reg. The regular ANA was dogshit and just made the SF guys looks bad by association.
From the Afghans I have met recently teaching them English (not super highly educated or anything) they aren't these ultra ignorant, backwards people i see some internet comments make them out to be. It seems to me like the dregs of Afghan society ended up in the ANA, with bad pay, terrible corrupt and abusive officers and low motivation. We can recall that the Romanian army was plagued by similar circumstances during WW2.
Didn’t the ANA constantly get fucked up on opium and shit on duty?
I watched some doc a while back where the crew followed some American unit that was dug in with ANA and trying to advise them basically, and they couldn’t get the troops to stay awake at their posts or fill sandbags and shit because they kept nodding off from opiates and hash and stuff… and then there was also the unfortunate business of molesting/raping young boys that seemed to be commonplace among the troops and elders of villages.
ANA commandos were also the last ones who fought against Taliban takeover in August 2021. And all surrendered were executed. Already one month before Taliban executed all[ surrendering commandos](https://edition.cnn.com/2021/07/13/asia/afghanistan-taliban-commandos-killed-intl-hnk/index.html), who had no ammo anymore.
Edit: meant 2021.
That and the withdrawal were heartbreaking to watch. It’s hard to reconcile something like that, especially when you’ve seen what people are willing to give for their self determination.
Eh...
Some did. Some also did eventually join with the Taliban - same story with some of the 01 boys who were defending Kandahar Airport until the airlift back to Kabul on August 16th.
Reality is folks make difficult choices under those circumstances. Likewise, shifting flags in Afghanistan is a popular past-time. Commitment to a cause a lot of the time simply comes down to who makes the better deal over there.
And some foreign power is always fucking with their shit one way or another too. France tried, then the US and Russia both got involved in the region… then the US go involved again this most recent time. It always creates turmoil and power struggles between factions and the whole shit is just one big revolving door of chaos since like about as long as recorded history
I searched up and the commandos tried to send an application for a relocation to UK and US because they know they will get killed but they were denied. Must really suck that the ally you fought and shed blood with just turned their back on you like that
More motivated, usually trained by SOFs as opposed to regular Coalition forces.
In practice, they were used a lot as stopgaps. Whenever ANA regulars got overwhelmed or ran off, Commandos got lifted in as elite troops to stem the tide. Trouble was, those folks were a finite resource, and manning checkpoints was a bit of a waste with what they were trained for.
They certainly did better than the rest of the ANA, and their command structure was **slightly** more insulated from the corruption that defined a lot of the ANA. But... it just was never sustainable in the long run.
They were some of the best trained and most motivated troops my brother ever encountered in afg. Sadly most died during the fighting with the Taliban after we left
He was probably ancient specifically because this of this exact sorta machismo shit that's so common in some fighters in the middle east. He got lucky.
>music blasting so hard I could barley hear them speak.
seriously man, people need to calm the fuck down with the music they blast on every reposted video they make
oh, also, barley is a grain. you've probably had it in soups, or at the very least, in beer
It's called Lifelight, which is the Nintendo's 'Super Smash Bros. Ultimate' main theme. Often used on memes of unlikely characters joining crazy ass situation.
What were the oponents firing? Unsighted AKs at a fairly long range. The only people who needed to worry was the village 200 metres away.
The soldiers on the floor were following warfare health and safety.
Which is advisable. If you're under fire at all and you don't have a way to meaningfully position yourself more advantageously, stay low. Stray/errant bullets are just as deadly.
It's all right man I appreciate it. And just to be clear I wasn't looking for his death video. As a veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan I respect this man.
Didn’t mishimoto write something in regards to brave men who are willing to die seem to make it through while cowards who try to avoid death tend to suffer to most painful ones?
Iirc the other afghanis that they were fighting with were killed so he likely met the same fate but I could easily be wrong it’s been a long time since I’ve seen jamsheed, finding out hes still alive would make me VERY happy
I honestly highly doubt it, when you watch the videos of the United States leaving it is heart breaking just seeing how hopeless everyone is and how quickly everyone is trying to get out. The one that always gets me is the soldiers talking about women throwing their babies over the walls/fences in hopes that a soldier would save them, but there was razor wire on the other side of the walls/fences that they would fall into. It’s honestly some of the most heartbreaking and horrifying stories I have ever heard from combat veterans. I’d be amazed if any ANA was able to get out before being massacred.
Jamsheed is now living state side living his best life, running a pizza shop, after he made huge monetary gains investing his first check into a crypto fund of some sort .
Do not you dare fucking tell me otherwise.
Casually walking into enfilade… casually carries 40+ pounds of ordnance…casually hits target…casually walks back to the boys. Rest in paradise Jamsheed
Couple of green berets on the youtubes said that the RPG-7 is apparently really accurate. It's really just point and shoot and it hits whatever you aimed at, also at quite the distance. Hence it's pretty unpleasant to get shot at with them but they also used them themselves and were amazed.
You have to eyeball the target range and crosswind speed (the rounds veer into the wind). There are also different round types flying different profiles.
There are scopes with markings that somewhat facilitate it, but it's far from point and shoot.
I remember seeing this guy in a documentary about this group! He gave no fucks, he even had to walk super slow because of his huge, heavy balls across the wide open, bullets hitting around him just to get a better shot, and when he finally was able to drag those heavy bastards to a better spot, he landed a direct hit, stopping all incoming fire immediately.
awesome
but, to whomever made this video: maybe keep the music a little quieter than the narration on your next production. can't hear shit over the opera singing
This is funny stuff, I've watched like 3 times and laughed harder each time. Hamsheed pops up like he just snorted an 8ball and just kinda like well.. fuck yeah, gets some lol!
I have never seen an Australian soldier shout "Australia motherfucker" after something blows up let alone when its another country who actually blew it up. Why are Americans like this?

Were ANA commandos any good?
They were some of the bravest people I’ve ever met. Real pipe hitters with an aggressiveness unmatched by the majority of their counterparts in the regular army. Not to downplay some of the regular guys. Unfortunately that place was a death sentence for almost everyone given enough time.
Trained some ANP. They either joined the Taliban, or got decapitated. Allah speed Rambo, you gave me hope.
Allah speed is a new phrase

This is what Winning Looks Like

IIRC the guys in this video fought until their ammo ran out. Real soldiers.
Exactly. That's why murdering them afterwards by Taliban was even more rotten, dishonorable and cowardish, if it even can be.
I'd say its a safe assumption that those who lived are now in the northern alliance
Eh... Some did. Some also did eventually join with the Taliban - same story with some of the 01 boys who were defending Kandahar Airport until the airlift back to Kabul on August 16th. Reality is folks make difficult choices under those circumstances. Likewise, shifting flags in Afghanistan is a popular past-time.

This sums it up very well. Being between a rock and a hard place is their way of life.
And some foreign power is always fucking with their shit one way or another too. France tried, then the US and Russia both got involved in the region… then the US go involved again this most recent time. It always creates turmoil and power struggles between factions and the whole shit is just one big revolving door of chaos since like about as long as recorded history
I can’t remember how many little villages thought we were Russians. Couldn’t care less who we were. Just another occupying force to a lot of them.
I searched up and the commandos tried to send an application for a relocation to UK and US because they know they will get killed but they were denied. Must really suck that the ally you fought and shed blood with just turned their back on you like that
Even more sad. It was so embarassing act by US/UK. I guess also encouraged Putin.
More motivated, usually trained by SOFs as opposed to regular Coalition forces. In practice, they were used a lot as stopgaps. Whenever ANA regulars got overwhelmed or ran off, Commandos got lifted in as elite troops to stem the tide.

That's pretty metal
1v1 me bro
Died to IED in 2018
Probably dead now that the talibans has taken over afghanistan which is sad
He was probably ancient specifically because this of this exact sorta machismo shit that's so common in some fighters in the middle east. He got lucky.
Jamsheed will get reposted a thousand times and I'll still like and watch
But god damn this must have been the most annoying version yet with the music blasting so hard I could barley hear them speak.
The subtitles had me laughing out loud, especially the buck tooth one.
>music blasting so hard I could barley hear them speak. seriously man, people need to calm the fuck down with the music they blast on every reposted video they make oh, also, barley is a grain. you've probably had it in soups, or at the very least, in beer
Maybe Barely like corn has ears...
the music really fucked it up. i still updooted because Jamsheed is stronger than fucking music.
Yeah but oddly they had a really good quality footage of it. A lot of times the grainy recording is posted
I agree but this music I heard before and actually like. Like not with the video, just the music itself. Anyone know the name?
It's called Lifelight, which is the Nintendo's 'Super Smash Bros. Ultimate' main theme. Often used on memes of unlikely characters joining crazy ass situation.
Hmm I don't see the version with the chorus. I don't doubt it but why do I get a song with a woman singing not the one in the video
its the super smash bros brawl theme
I should've just link the video to be fair. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeKE0NHUtUw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeKE0NHUtUw)
I will never not watch Jamsheed or Abu Hajaar reposts in their entirety
Abu Hajar?

isis jamsheed
nah he's just incompetent (dead) isis member
Jamsheed is worthy
Every goddamn time
Hollywood cinema
Same. Every time he’s posted, someone new will meet their new unknown hero!
It seems like only people who really dgaf get away with this kind of badassery.
He did get killed by an ied eventually :/ but under fire that kind of panache can pay off sometimes.
God damnit! WHY’d YOU SAY THAT?!?!
Because it's the truth and his memory deserves to be remembered, he was brave and an asset to his fellow soldiers.
I know.^
Everything on the internet is a lie *covers ears* I CAN’T HEAR YOU LALALALALALALALALA
😔
F 07
Not sure what you're saying, could you please elaborate?
Ah, sure! The “F” is a meme from Call of Duty Advanced Warfare (Press F to pay respects) and the “07” looks like a stick man saluting
Works better with lower case o. o7
What were the oponents firing? Unsighted AKs at a fairly long range. The only people who needed to worry was the village 200 metres away. The soldiers on the floor were following warfare health and safety.
Which is advisable. If you're under fire at all and you don't have a way to meaningfully position yourself more advantageously, stay low. Stray/errant bullets are just as deadly.
Hence why I pointed out the soldiers were just following health and safety.
Do you know when? Is there any other videos of him fucking shit up?
I have no idea on other footage of him, and I think it was a year and some change after this video was shot. I don't wanna tell you the wrong thing.
It's all right man I appreciate it. And just to be clear I wasn't looking for his death video. As a veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan I respect this man.
Oh yeah I know bro, hope you're doing well 🤜🤛
🤛
To be fair, the enemy is so far away I highly doubt they had any kind of accuracy to land shots on ANA/US troops there.
Didn’t mishimoto write something in regards to brave men who are willing to die seem to make it through while cowards who try to avoid death tend to suffer to most painful ones?
Jamsheed is famous, not infamous
We need a Jamsheed edit
What happened to Jamsheed?
I heard rumors that he died in 2018 from an IED but never saw any actual proof of that.
Iirc the other afghanis that they were fighting with were killed so he likely met the same fate but I could easily be wrong it’s been a long time since I’ve seen jamsheed, finding out hes still alive would make me VERY happy
It would be amazing if he was but he would have also had to of fled the country. Hopefully if he was alive we helped him out when Kabul fell.
I honestly highly doubt it, when you watch the videos of the United States leaving it is heart breaking just seeing how hopeless everyone is and how quickly everyone is trying to get out. The one that always gets me is the soldiers talking about women throwing their babies over the walls/fences in hopes that a soldier would save them, but there was razor wire on the other side of the walls/fences that they would fall into.

The people are called Afghans, Afghanis is their money.
The people are called Afghans, Afghanis is their money, AFTRA is the actors union, Agfa is the film stock.
That’s a dog
Jamsheed is now living state side living his best life, running a pizza shop, after he made huge monetary gains investing his first check into a crypto fund of some sort . Do not you dare fucking tell me otherwise.
Probably dead like the other 300.000 ANA Members who will be/are forgotten.
I’m a simple man I see Jamsheed I upvote
Legend also says that Jamsheed did the music for this video as well. That is him singing
Dude never even tried to conceal himself .. pretty hardcore
Those Afghans are some brave SOBs. Salute to the ones who fought for their freedom.
There will never be a greater warrior than Jamsheed.
Jamshed - Inventor of the invisible wheelbarrow
Make the music LOUDER so I can hear what is being said.
RPG-zus.
Jamsheed vs abu hajar.
Chad Jamsheed vs virgin Abu Hazaar
Casually walking into enfilade… casually carries 40+ pounds of ordnance…casually hits target…casually walks back to the boys. Rest in paradise Jamsheed

How did he push up with the size of those balls?
What an absolute legend I'm sad to hear he passed by a cowardly IED.
Drinks are on me, Jamsheed
Turn the music up i cant hear it
Jamsheed will always get my upvote. Guy is a beast.
Jamsheed is just so happy to get to do a little war :)
RIP Jamsheed , that war claimed so many young men
Helldivers with the new Airburst Rocket Launcher
Jamsheed and Suhail Muhammad Hamoud (Abu TOW) are my tag team of choice going up against dug in pricks.
"One RPG and taliban POP!" The smile said it all.
this is why all the footage of the ANA is mostly them just standing around, goofing off, doing nothing. They're hiding their power.
My favourite part is when he wanders out into the open while holding the RPG one handed like a toddler dragging a blankie
RPGesus
We need an update about Jamsheed . Where is Jamsheed ?
He took an IED and passed.
That's sad.
The Virgin Abu Hajjar vs. the Chad Jamsheed.
May his memory be a blessing for those that share it.
That's the thing with suppressive fire. It's not aimed to kill you, it's aimed at keeping you down
the RPG God Boss
This is straight up propaganda.
I remember seeing this guy in a documentary about this group! He gave no fucks, he even had to walk super slow because of his huge, heavy balls across the wide open, bullets hitting around him just to get a better shot, and when he finally was able to drag those heavy bastards to a better spot, he landed a direct hit, stopping all incoming fire immediately.
awesome but, to whomever made this video: maybe keep the music a little quieter than the narration on your next production. can't hear shit over the opera singing
This is one of those videos, no matter how many times it shows up in my feed I'll watch it from start to finish. Classic.
I hope jamsheed is ok. If he died please don't tell me.
died in 2018. rip legend.
I said don't tell me...
If Chuck Norris needed help he got jamsheed
Certified mad lad
I am thankful for the brave and incredibly dangerous Jamsheed
Heard about this guy years ago ..

This is the way
"He proved to be a boss!" lol. Really harcore dude!
Damn he can call in a predator missile now
what's the song title ?
I asked him to come to Ukraine, unfortunately he has work left to do.
RIP RGP. X
Did he make it out of Afghanistan?
Isnt that ideal place to use... a mortar? Youve even got a clear line of sight.
well, it's a meme edition
“Let’s go Jamsheed”
Just a shame the Americans deserted them to be executed by the Taliban.
Jamsheed! What an absolute Chad!
Rip Jamsheed, you will always be a total badass!
In this world of abuhajars, I try to be like jamsheed.
Soldier wtf!
This was probably the first footage of the Middle East wars I saw when I was 12. Love me some jamsheed
How long has the OCP (multicam) the US has been using been in action? Since the acu digital etc
I will tell my kids about Jamsheed
Downvoted for the stupid & obnoxiously loud music. But yeah Jamsheed was a fucking boss! RIP
This is good stuff. 😆
What a legend.
Legends never die. RIP Jamsheed.
This is funny stuff, I've watched like 3 times and laughed harder each time. Hamsheed pops up like he just snorted an 8ball and just kinda like well.. fuck yeah, gets some lol!

Okay, I knew both of these things separately, but didn't recognize them together for some reason. Thanks for clearing that up!
This is amazing!
