Speculation is almost as useful as dis-information 8)
I don't see any op/sec per/sec problems so far in this thread.
If I had then it would have been made to go away.

May seem like a stupid question but, as the SAS are paid a substantial amount more then other army regiments, are 1 para paid more than 2 & 3 para through being the SFSG?

Like I say, this may be a really stupid question but it's something I've been curious about for a while now.

I think 1 Para are paid alot more than 2,3 Para. Don't 2,3 para only get the same as other infantry regiments but get hazard pay for jumping out of aircraft?
