wind up?

a base plat aint heavy either ffs, but when you are tabbing all over the place with the f@#k they do tend to get a bit heavy, and 200 link ffs, sorry mate but i used to carry a bit more than that when we were live firing, rarther have it with me than without. and the "lid" ? why do they put them ...

is that a frisbi on the head of that marine, or is it sloped that way so the rain runs straight off, ?
you cant beat the gimpy in any role, awsome bit of kit, well worth the pain when you are carrying it,

shoulderholster,
the storys that you have heard about the mortar platoon are only storys made up by jealous members of the regiment who never made it to the top floor of support company block . the things people will do to discredit a well upstanding body of men.

been called a lot of things but never a "troop" .shoulderholster what is your experience with the mortar"troop" ?

futurecruit ,every paratrooper is having a little giggle at the incident with the marines, as would the marines if it was a para reg involved, that is friendly banter, but every swinging dick hopes they get back safe asap, ive seen your post on the marines site, and you need to wind your neck in and ...

Just a thought ,whats the hardest assault course you have ever done, i found the one in the shot the hardest one ? may have been the smallest but what a ball breaker. Easiest one everv was when we were with the rangers in fort lewis, cant remember the training area but every bloke in the company ...

a hats a hat, plain and simple, no need to debate it. :

whatever the outcome, what are the sun implying? is it front page news? does it take away anything he or any of his comrades have done ? no it does not, i dare say people are still grieving, so why the fxxk put this piece of unfabricated crap on the front page. the sun should apologise to the family.

did a ten miler once when i was in mortars, ? every other t##t in the battalion did a ten miler meaning tabbing 10 miles with a bergan weighing 45 pounds pounds, ? our 10 miler ended up being 17, with bergans of 50 pounds, then someone said we may as well get the mortar kit as well, one of the snco ...

had a mate in 3 para was ex 2nd rep, he had photos of their tranasium type course, it was over water and they had harnesses on, ? greenronnie you might know him, think he ended up a cssm,2 para was ex 3 para ptls, was a good bloke.

when i did it one of the lads completed the whole lot, shuffle bars, jump, the lot, but when it came to leaning out and sliding down the firemans pole he woudnt do it, was asked 3 times to do it, refused ,and was then f####d off, that appeared to be the easiest part of the lot, but he found actually ...

fxxxing joke, remember the old saying " what manner of men are these " its obvious there are no high ranking ex para reg blokes in the halls of whitehall, bring back jacko and tell them how it is. the job starts on the ground but it is the ethos behind that that bonds the blokes together.

greenronnie, cheers for the info ,whats the make up of PF now? i was in when they reformed in 85? if my memory is right i think on the initial cadre there was a number of guards, dont think many passed,

greenronnie, what was the pathfinders role ? were you tasked as an additional rifle platoon, or were you doing your own thing, sun bathing etc, who did you answer to ? or were you independent . also whats the posibility of viewing the vid that you made, im ex 3 para mortars for my sins.
