Is this the saddest picture ever?
As the title says, is the saddest picture you have ever seen?

It'd be sadder if he had rank.
"Hurrah for the Works Group" just doesn't have the same ring...
"A volunteer is worth ten pressed men."
So, a TA battalion or nine Regular Guards battalions? Not a difficult choice, then (especially as we don't have nine Regular Guards battalions).
I am a number. I am not a free man.

Well, at least you know that if your dessies are ever subjected to a force of 550lbs they will stay on your feet.

Does the tread incorporate the Para Regt capbadge?
Do green laces denote 3 Para dessies, or is he a lace walt?
Do wings on the right ankle denote Mortar Platoon?
Enquiring minds want to know.Last edited by Vastatio; 04-09-2010 at 04:42.

I posted on one of the other (either the wings tatoo or SFUB) thread
I went fro a pint with some airborne lads once
They had wings stiched onto everything
Baseball caps civvy jackets teeshirts the lot
When they were trying not to draw attention to themselves they stiched them on the inside of the stuffWe should remember the tremendous contribution of the Queen Mother to the war effort:
As the BBC pointed out, she 'bravely remained in London beside her husband' during the war.
This contrasts sharply with the actions of my grandfather who, on the declaration of war immediately left his wife and children and pissed off, first to France, then North Africa, Italy, France (again) and finally Germany.
The shame will always be with us.
