Thinking caps on please - your help is needed.

Post by Scottish Thistle »

Loads of people here have offered Sara (English Rose) and I help with our Support a Squaddie project but if I possibly ask one more favour from you............


We are having a bit of a revamp of the site etc and realise that the current name doesnt apply to anyone other than army and that marines especially don't like to be reffered to as Squaddies :wink:

We need another name that covers all of the Forces but still gets the word across of what we are all about.

We've been racking our brains all day to think of something that goes with Forces but you really dont want to hear some of our ideas!!!!

Anyway, all offerings will be greatly appreciated!!!!

How about:

Support our Forces.

Bog standard I know but it covers it to my mind.

Here's a few to think on :-?

Force's Freinds,
Freind's of/ for the Force's (could add Foundation on the end)
Force's Frendship Group
Penpal Friend's for the Force's
Knickers through the mail for are force's :roll: :P

Joke's aside though, my personal favourite:

British Military Penpal Foundation/Club 8)

I think you want something easy to remember, and that has a little humour to it as well. :drinking:

I hated being called a SQUADDIE myself.

What about something like The Armed Forces Support Network.

give address details away to ? or will you post by proxy
for them ?
