They are all the best, the only person who can make a choice is you, but people can help give you an opinion and the pros and cons of the job but in the end it's going to be down to you.
Maybe you should have posted this in the army section. :wink:

Womens Auxillary Balloon Corps
194 Mess Tin Repair unit
Argyle & Bolton Wanderers

All fine units with a proud history. My vote however would go to the Seepang Sappers of WW1.

I quite like the look of the queens own royal dhobi snatchers
Peter: Woah! Is that really the blood of Christ?
Priest: Yes.
Peter: Man, that guy must have been wasted 24 hours a day, huh?

So - there are still Regiments then ?

I thought that recruits were placed into Marchers, Drivers, Jumpers
or Waders Groups ..... All dressed in ginger woolly stuff

My cap badge collection from the forties should be worth a bit .....

Don't worry Aspinall - You'll land on your feet - It's YOU who will be
making it into the best regiment -

Perhaps you haven't entered the wrong thread after all -

Take a shufty at the Royal Marines entry pages..... could be kismet Hardy

...or my favourite from nod training - The Royal Elsaneers :lol:

Kit - helmet, weapon, webbing...to the rear, a gynockapod bergan; to the front cradled in both arms the Elsan crapper with a weeks worth of organic waste from the troop. The perfect start to every endex yomp :wink:

how to smash a poor lad just wanting to know who to join! (obviosuly should be the corps :wink: )

Depends mate, lots of lads go for the local regiment as the postings are closer to home and with people from there area. Regiments such as the Mercians, Yorkshire, Royal Anglican, Royal Regiment of Jockland etc

Some join the Paras and The Royal Marines for the extra challenge and bragging rights in the bar, both excellent soliders first and foremost.

Always the RAF Reg if you like perimiter wires and chad phots in front of pimped out wimik's.
Forward Troop - CLRRM, Viking Operator and Maintainer. Viking Support Troop out in The Ghan.
