A few years ago a Frenchman wrote what the Americans were like from his experience in Afghanistan.
His first point was that Americans are tall, often standing a head taller than their European counterparts. He noted that the Americans were very easy to pick out.
Second, he stated that every military has that one person who is just a waste of air, the general screwup in the unit. However, with the Americans even the most screwed up guy is better trained than those of other forces.
The average American is strong. Very strong. From his base of operations he claimed that the weakest American was stronger than the strongest soldier in the French units. If a unit was in trouble you prayed that an American unit took up the radio call for help. When American forces picked up the call their reply was "sit tight, we are coming to get you." There wasn't any logistic haggling until the Americans were fully committed to your rescue. They came regardless of what the situation was, In fact they wouldn't ask about specifics until they got close to your position and often knew the threats in the area before asking what problems you were having.
He also realized one overwhelming fact. In all other forces, if an officer was killed you're taught to dig in and take a defensive position. Not the Americans. If an American officer is taken out of commission they go on the attack. He realized that American officers restrain the troops under their command, not for their protection but the enemy's. If you kill or injure an American officer, they are coming for you and very little will save you.
That last paragraph is utter bullshit from my personal experiences

Then he’s never dealt with British soldiers. They’re very much the same way. And I’d argue braver than we are most of the time.

Tell that to this nigger in Niger, oh wait you can't he died while waiting for US air support that never came, his surviving comrades had to be rescued by ... the fucking French.
This, and for the wider Anglo sphere at that. It's a culture thing* Prussians used to be the same.

This is basically true. Part of that deal is that the wogs also leak intel to the locals about what everybody else is up to, so some of that baksheesh is American lives.

Private Wallace!” >A guy wearing a foldable tea table on his back and carrying a full tea set comes running out of nowhere, sets up a full table with tablecloth in about 2 seconds, complete with tea set, butter, and crumpets. >Brits sit at the table and start sipping tea, casually chatting and discussing the weather in great detail while explosions rain down around them for about 10 minutes >Officer yells “Pack it up, lads!” >Mysterious tea man comes out and the tea set disappears as soon as I blink >Brits dive for cover next to the Americans who are still staring, utterly dumbfounded
Some thoughts about American troops vs. foreign troops: Americans troops are much more safety oriented than foreigners. We’ll train over and over maneuvers, tactics and procedures. Foreign troops couldn’t give a shit. When one of ours dies, we’ll move heaven and earth to save them. Other than his buddy, no one mourns for the foreign troops death. Officers in the American military are usually the local egghead that nco’s listen to in times of confusion or as simply a matter of protocol. When bullets are flying, all commands come from the Nco. If an officer dies in battle, nothing changes. His life wasn’t contigent on success. In a foreign army, the officer is something like a god. He has disdain for his troops and they are not allowed to make the slightest decision without him. The American army are trained to kill without hesitation. It’s akin to a virgin watching porn for years, preparing for the day when he’ll finally get to fuck. When it finally happens, it’s over way too quick and someone has to restrain him from making a mess of things. For the foreign troop, he’s never prepared. He wants to take the enemy on a date first and buy her flowers. He hesitates and flounders.

'The United States of America must be regarded racially as a European colony, and owing to current ignorance of the physical bases of race, one often hears the statement made that native Americans of Colonial ancestry are of mixed ethnic origin. This is not true. At the time of the Revolutionary War the settlers in the thirteen Colonies were not only purely Nordic, but also purely Teutonic, a very large majority being Anglo-Saxon in the most limited meaning of that term. The New England settlers in particular came from those counties of England where the blood was almost purely Saxon, Anglian, and Dane.
New England, during Colonial times and long afterward, was far more Teutonic than old England; that is, it contained a smaller percentage of small, Pre-Nordic brunets. Any one familiar with the native New Englander knows the clean cut face, the high stature and the prevalence of gray and blue eyes and light brown hair, and recognizes that the brunet element is less noticeable there than in the South.
The remaining Colonial elements, the Holland Dutch, the Palatine Germans, who came over in small numbers to New York and Pennsylvania, were also purely Teutonic, while the French Huguenots who escaped to America were drawn much more largely from the Nordic than from the Alpine or Mediterranean elements of France. The Scotch-Irish, who were numerous on the frontier of the middle Colonies were, of course, of pure Scotch and English blood, although they had resided in Ireland two or three generations. They were quite free from admixture with the earlier Irish from whom they were cut off socially by bitter religious antagonism, and they are not to be considered as "Irish" in any sense. '
All opponents are weak cunts to us you fucking retard.

Alright check it out faggots. This thread is going to turn into a MUH CUNTRY circle jerk, but I actually served in the US Army in Afghanistan next to other nations militaries. The French soldiers were squared away, very fit, and just all around bro-tier dudes. They were similar height to our guys. All that BS OP boasted about the US doing that other nations cannot is what ANYONE who is a soldier would do for a fellow brother in arms REGARDLESS of nation.
Side note, the Polish are lazy and have beer guts, but they are also total bros would fight alongside again/10.
That is all, continue faggot circle-jerk about MUH CUNTY

Juan Moore
He probably worked with Ranger Rgt or SF for this all to be true. Our front line infantry guys get the job done as well, but there are shit bags and weaklings and all manner of genetic scum. But the rest is true. The strength of the US Armed forces is the NCO corps. If the LT gets killed, the truth is no one was really listening to him anyway, joe will follow his squad leader. And squad leaders win battles. Our true strength is that from day 1 we are trained to operate as small 6 or 7 man elements. Larger set piece battles rarely happens, usually bigger fights devolve into small pockets of fighting involving squads and teams. Also it's in our blood as Americans to fight like hell. When the world ends and future generations learn about ancient history, they will tell tales about a warrior people who came from the West.

Height is not important and I'd even go so far to say that usually its a detriment in ground warfare. Most of the time in combat you're trying to make yourself as small of a target as possible. Ever notice how some of the most effective infantrymen of modern times are usually short? Height matters in basketball and making yourself feel better on the internet, it doesnt do shit for you when the bullets start flying.

Yes it's true, 12 years a marine NCO and 90% of that time was tard wrangling which included a few of my superiors for just about the majority of our second visit to iraq. The other 10% is split between writing reports and beating off. Our sister unit lost an officer and they leveled a village that was an "insurgent stronghold" as retaliation but I'm not entirely sure they killed anything but goats and opium. If they did get the sniper there wouldn't have been anything left to confirm.

Americans are, for being a group of misled maniacs, pretty cool - though a lot of this is exaggeration. We just need to regain our isolationism when it comes to military interventionism.
There was another count I saw of a British officer that said much of the same stuff, but a bit more reigned into reality. He also acknowledged what he saw as faults our military had. But overall was very appreciative of them. I don't have it on hand though.
