Earlier on in the thread someone mentioned the poor state of their hospitals food. As learned the hard way after spending nearly a month in hospital a few years ago, here is a useful handy tip.

A Major in their early-mid twenties.......

I suspect that he would have stepped on a few toes and mightily pissed off the blokes to get that far that fast unless he is in some obscure specialty...

Poor show CF......you been drinking diesel from the jerry cans again, haven't you?

Though it wouldn't be surprising if a number of ACF heroes started to get moist at the thought!

I don't think so, if a public sector supplier fails to meet their contractual requirement, it would not be unreasonable to remove them from a preferred supplier list until the OGC is satified that...

I hope that when it is all over, I would like to think that HM Government will be able to recover some money from G4S. But given the past performance of Government Procurement and their biblical...

Ugly,

That's a very huge assumption your making there and you seem to be putting your faith in students taking up the offer. Whilst I agree that some sort of bursary or grant is attractive, would...

The mong that's dicked to carry the ECM

An interesting thread....

In times past, when my mojo was waning, I would transfer somewhere else and normally it's worked. However, since the MTD debacle, its quite plain to see that some units...

After reading the Original Posters opening comment, I gave up reading the rest......I bet he moves his lips whilst he is reading!

All I can say is "Well done you for further perpetuating the...

Kabul Fried Chogie.

Mate, if you want history.........

"I believe the dislike of this form of address can be traced back to the Battle of Waterloo, where Sapper Horatio Fella was captured by some French troops and...

That is a classic example of MTD's going up in smoke!

Er.......move along, there's nothing to see here........ignore those people moving that sign!

However, it is a fine example of the MoD press, marketing and advertising department taking it in the...

Say it ain't so!

I have been ordering kit from them since the early 90's and still have two SAS smocks from them and they are quality bits of kit. The bloke that used to run the company, was...

It's a shame it's not the Winter Olympics, we could have had "STABS on Ice", a winter wonderland spectacular for all the family.

Everyone is concerned that they could lose the goodwill of their employer, because other people couldn't be arsed to do their jobs properly. Now, I don't have a problem with doing a bone task, so...

A bloke in my unit, who was itching to get some time in Afghan, went over to them as he was kicking around on the dole patrol and thought this could be a stepping stone to a permanent job with the...

Rob,

Thanks for writing the article, hopefully it will allow buyers to make an informed decision.

As for using the "Multicam" as a generic term, I am aware that it's registered to Crye. I was...

For some reason, everytime I hear this song, it reminds me of "The Fleece" pub in Richmond.......

Didn't they use to?

As I recall, didn't a (ex?) Cadet go a little "Micheal Ryan" in the late 80's which limited the Cadets overall exposure to weapons?

AKU made a breif foray into the military boot market in the late 90's, with the AKU Combat Boot. Which I purchased from SASS for the princely sum of £100.

Superficially they were similar in look...

Whilst covered in other threads the Corps really does have a penchant for messing around with TA trade training.

I suppose the closest the brigade came to a centrally managed training setup was...

Chaps,

Having read another thread about MTP. Sapperted made a comment about the Canadian Cadet Force wearing a different uniform because they do things differently. I have always suspected that we...

The last time I looked, The Royal Yeomanry, did more than "bottle wash"....

Given that this is in the TA forum...

Thats all well and good, but how many of the Brigades C2 were TA and did any TA units in the brigade do much in these 11 live operations?

I suspect that...

Charlie and Gassing Badgers,

Thank you for your assistance in this. I didnt think about searching ARRSEpedia.

"Serve to Lead" was indeed the title of the precis. As I recall the copy I had, had...

Bump

Just a minor comment....

It would be useful to see your airborne "multicam" webbing shown next to some MTP material, just so we could compare how much of a match it is.

who knows you might even...

I suppose it depends on whether the product development people at Kiwi are on the ball, given that one of their biggest markets is about to nearly collapse.

If you can scare the sh1t out of distressed people causing them to have flashbacks,then this could be the job for you.

Make sure they hand over the money first!

Here's the wikipedia page. (reader beware!):

Somatic Experiencing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Having read the article, it basically means exposing the patient to " increasingly...

I would ask Verdi, I think he knows a guy..........

Now bore off you bell end!

I hate to say it, but why are you letting this wannabe RAF untermench fantasist get away with saying this stuff about you. You are a TA soldier, have some pride man and fill this fat cunt Flight...

Do tell us oh wise sage about the tours you pushed in your five minutes with the TA Royal Signals!

Do you still get flashbacks about filling up the generator you wannabe fantasist!

To the great and good of this forum, I wonder if you can help me.

To cut a long story short, I used to have an old (early - mid 90's ish) copy of the Leadership precis, but have lost it in the...

Just some thoughts from me, I took the time to read the proposal document from the think tank. In my opinion this all smacks of trying to emulate troops to teacher's and the US JROTC program in one...

Government (indirectly) imposed harsher sentancing and talk of imposing curfews is certainly a worrying trend in a free society. However, given that the cuts have yet to really take hold, combined...

Seems all quiet here in London.....hope it stays that way.

I live in the area, the best place is a residential side street. He could try parking somewhere of Northfields Avenue?

Whats the betting, that they try to smash up the Empress State Building.
