    Which 2 Regiments are to be chopped

    2 Armoured Regiments are to go, leaving 5 Heavy and 5 light for the 5 Multi-task brigades. My money is on 1 and 2 RTR mixing and 9/12 disbanded as I've heard terrible storys about them over the last few years?

    Is this gospel or did you hear it from a bloke down the pub? The current plan is to drop one sqn from each regiment.

    Or are you going to ask the same question in every forum?

    I heard from my mate (who is always right), the PARAs are going as they have not jumped operationally since Suez and they cost too much with their jump pay and special helmets.

    I've heard some terible stories over the years. One I remember featured a wolf who ate a gradmother then dressed up in her clothes to try and fool a little girl. I mean come on! there would be blood everywhere. Then how would a woolf dress up? No opposable thumbs! He'd need some sort of help. ramble...
