Whilst I was serving in the glorious army (well sort of glorious) I had some luck in getting detached to the German Army and did the German para course and whilst there also went to the USofA for 4 months and did the air assault course and qualified on a few weapons (you get to wear that target (marksmans) badge with loadsa chain link...
Only badge I was allowed to wear for these escapades were the German Army para brevet and the air assault brevet...
Always wanted to do the french course (a few of the lads at 6 ord did the french commando course at the Schwarzwald trg centre) but that was a bit before my time
