Good work mate, great video you've found.

The new airbourne museum they are opening next year sounds great, it'll be awesome to walk around looking at the history and standard of men who served and still serve (with luck, i'll be amoung them 8) ).

cheers

Not sure to be honist, shouldn't be long though, the sergeant says they are pretty reliable, when i go for my second interview friday i'll ask.

I'm looking to start Depot in either late August or September somewhen, because i've got a holiday booked in August and it'll also give me a chance to concentrate on some good phys instead of revising for exams or doing coursework/homework.

Cheers

Mark

Because it just seems right for me to be running around with my people rather then jumping out of airoplanes. I know a few people in the marines aswell so they wil come in us some how unless i became a para.

Sebomin, and i took some Avlocor chloroquine phosphate for the first time yesterday. I'd like to state that i wont get malaria in the next week. None of these drugs would change me or anything and i don't depend on them or anything. I was just very werid when i was little. And i hated school, so when i had a bath one time, well a few times, i mixed all the shampoos and conditioners and all the stuff in the bathroom and drank it to make myself ill so i didn't have to go to school the next day. I was about 10 at the time, I don't know if i would do it today. The plan never worked and i went to school the next day. I'm wondering if that made me werid.
I've always wanted to join the marines and me suddenly changing my choice, i would have to tell people who are in the marines and they would be sad.

I'll let somebody else ask about that one :o
You mean, Stinky, it's a bit like Tom Brown's Schooldays in the Marines where the prefects are allowed, nay, encouraged to 'make use' of the new boys?

Crikey, I didn't know that went on! :o

I don't think it happens in the Paras ..... think me lad would have mentioned it ..... :roll:
