My training troop (935), did the drill display for the annual RMA congregation at CTCRM on Sept 8th, it was nice to get eyes on such a hoofing boss as JJ Moore. My kings squad pass out was a week later, I still cant believe he died the day after my KSPO.

Sod off to that.

On a more serious note dude, what troop are you? I am sure you are the troop that has Botswanan luke in it, a mate of mine. You are not the troop that is not allowed to wear berets I take it.
