Any bros watching this interesting series? The Mandarin title is 台灣菁英戰士：陸戰蛙人 Intro from a website http://www.appledaily.com.tw/appledaily/article/international/20131019/35375522/ : Almost everyone everywhere has heard of the US Navy SEALs. This elite military force is trained to handle all kinds of situations at sea, in the air, and on land. Now, the world is going to find out about Taiwan’s elite warriors, the ARP Frogmen. As one of the toughest special forces in the ROC Marine Corps, the Amphibious Reconnaissance and Patrol Group is made up of the best of the best. Only those that pass all 22 sessions can go on to become frogmen. To see who has what it takes, don’t miss Taiwan’s Elite Warriors: ARP Frogmen on National Geographic Channel. My take: It is raw and very similar to our normal trainings though it is much tougher since they are to be trained as special forces operators. The similar part is the shoutings i.e. f**kings, "tekan-ing" and of-course the "keng-ing" we all experienced one way or another during our very own NS . But if you are into Every Singaporean Son-type of controlled, well, sanitised series mainly for ladies or for those who have never served then this show is not for you . Go watch it on Tuesdays at 9pm. (In Mandarin but with England subtitles)
