Other military history forums
Recently I've really enjoyed some of the corking threads on this forum like "Battle dishounours/disgraces", "Something from history you never knew".
Is there another site anyone knows of with more of this sort of discussion -basically the slightly more irreverent facts that don't get into the usual history books we all read - for example where certain Regiments capbadges, mottos, decorations, etc came from (without having to read every Regiment's history) - just, you know, the interesting facts.
Any help gratefully etc etc

Great War Forum
Vast knowledge base for researching WW1
Regiments in WW1I write down everything I want to remember. That way, instead of spending a lot of time trying to remember what it is I wrote down, I spend the time looking for the paper I wrote it down on.

This is Colonel Smith. Druid Jones, please.
Sorry, Sir. Druid Jones is off conducting a Bar Mitzvah.
Can druids do that?
We just have to remember the difference between a circumcision and a castration, Sir.

Battle of Hastings stuff - including lots from a chap that says the Normans landed closer to Olde Hastings (not the 'new' Old Town) and that the Battle wasn't at Abbey site.
Being a local boy, I think he's right.For Flag & Empire !

Re: Other military history forums
On Jan.18th.I posted new topic saying that I had had my wrist slapped for daring to ask on another Forum "what other Military forums do you visit?"
Was told by them "WE don't advertise other Forums on here!"
Now, this is why ARRSE is the best!
(Please can we have an 'emoticon' with a 'Tanky' beret on?)
