Change of rank?

[The_Duke]

So then, has the rank changed or is it just possible that the MOD have made yet another dogs dinner of an announcement?

PS Good work Snappers!

 

[Ronnie8781]

Very amusing!! Would you expect anything less??

 

[The_Duke]

Think that he has just got himself a nickname for life then?

 

[Ronnie8781]

I think he also might be buying a few crates!! Get the beers in Snapper!!

The journo deserves to be crated and then filled in!!!

Well done the Snappers, but look at the beret on the numpty in the picture!! Shocking! Needs to be snapped into shape. (See what I did there?)

[FaceLikeAPingPongBall]

maybe the troop cpl's have not had time to shape the "sprogs" berets for them what with checking their boots are not too tight & their bergans are not too heavy for the poor loves

Considering He was part of the MCF for Camp Bastion, I wouldnt call him a Numpty, regardless of how crap his beret looks.

Respect where respect is due, the Lads worked their arrses off. Even the ones with crap berets..

You might want to read the Bastion build articles in The Sapper Mag... You obviously havent.

Wouldn't a civil serpent not a journo write on the MoD site? I only hope they're not trusted with anything more dangerous than a computer...

Well done all those snappers, nonetheless!

And it was all built in daytime temperatures reaching 50 Celsius. Soldiers describe the conditions as like walking around inside an oven, coupled with mini tornados and sandstorms. Snapper Usher continued:

Get a grip, nobody mentioned anything about the guys proficiency as a 'snapper', the lads did a fine job on Camp Bastion, none of this was ever in doubt, neither is the fact that he does look like like numpty with that beret on!

A quality beret, just in case the need a mobile HLS, Snapper can lend them his.

A fine job done by the lads from the Beach.

Knocker are you going out to check on the wiring??

Sparky

If they've changed Sapper to Snapper, what are the other ranks called now?

Have you put in your bid for your hotel room by the pool mate, or are you going to have to slum it now?
