Who Dares Wins

[DLink011]

After a rather tough rugby match a couple saturdays ago, i noticed a kid (about 16) had a tattoo of the dagger with the slogan "who dares wins" on the back of his neck below his hair line, can this be possible. can you have such tattoo's in SAS, and whats the youngest you can be to enter?
he may have been a little older that 16.

Hi DLink - You're not the missing one are you?

I've been sat on my rock pondering and have some answers for you:

whats the youngest you can be to enter?

The younger you are - the more difficult you are to enter. FACT.

After a rather tough rugby match a couple saturdays ago...

I hope you weren't involved in the said match - it sounded rather tough!

can you have such tattoo's in SAS

Of course you can! They're the toughest of the tough!

In fact the powers that be actively encourage it. It helps identify the SASsies (as i call them) if they are lost in the Beacons/Middle Eastern Desert/Merthyr nightclub.

And i hope you spoke to the lad and pointed out the error of his ways...

"Are you saying i've had this Winged Dagger tattooed on, when i should have had the flaming Sword of Damocles?! Darn that tattooist."

Sleep well.

Dlink, use your head ey? try to scratch those 2 brain cells together, did you in your own mind think he even possibly could have been in the SAS?? sounds like a wannabie walter mitty (not even upto mitty standards ) .w.w.w.

hey wee willy,

Just to let you know chris ryan was training, for the 22's, i think, at 16...so....before you slag me off.

anyway no ard feelings,

Cpt Stabbo, you make me laugh, all the posts ive read are funny.

silly dik must have been a wannabe i shoulda pulled him up on it.

Phhhew! And i though by the threads title it was about that terrible film!

[Wee Willy Winkie]

chris ryan may have been training but he werent in it was he? you have to have had 2 years in the military before attempting SF anyways (making that bugger on the rugby pitch joining up at 14? lololol) w.w.w

[Doc]

DLink Chris Ryan was not training for 22 at 16!

He was in 23 first and may have been privatley training for their selection when he was in his late teens as his book states, but he wasnt in them. You have to be over 18 to join SF as you need to be able to deploy.

You Sir are a plank

Not sure who's the bigger idiot, him for having the tattoo or you for seriously thinking he might of actually been in the SAS

Wouldn't fancy being that kid if he ever bumps into a real SAS Trooper, I mean if it'd be bad enough if he had a para tattoo and bumped into any guys from Para Reg but the SAS Rather him than me

[sneaky beaky]

Can't anybody have a tatto? Of any description they like? Doesn't matter whether they are 16 or 46. I an sure the tattoist person has a whole folder of SF type tattoos!!
It doesn't mean anything, except the guy is a plonker for having the tattoo in the first place!!

Re tattoos

When i was a kid and growing up it was only the real hard guys that had tatts, now it seems to me that every pansy picking sissy has one, I am so glad i never bothered.

Quality thread, this. Glad I dropped by!

What absolute bleeding tripe!
