NDM Campaign and others. Post Korea- Cold War etc.
Dipped out on a medal- not long enough in theatre- whatever ? A new open and transparent medals review has been promised after a year long struggle with an intransigent MoD, inept Ministers and clueless civil servants, who in the main. have never served in the Armed Forces. The previous review was h...

Re: Joining the Royal Marines,but is my tattoo 'excessive'?
Since you won't salute 'Frog' style you should be o.k. Am reminded of the Legionnaire who had ' Merde a vous' prominently displayed when saluting which caused great mirth to his mates but not to an inspecting general. And yes this is a true anecdote.

Re: Cockleshell Heroes
Nice to see you Danielchristopherlee returning. In jest; bad pennies like me suddenly turn up again. As for the film the music was awful and I will not comment on Tom Seccomb's expletives when he watched it.

Best wishes to you and the team.

Both excellent and there are some damn fine line regiments too. Anyone serving now as an infanteer is likely to see action. Possibly and I say this advisedly there are more specialist skill opportunities with Royal. I leave it to others however to make their case for whatever unit they served in. Th...

Petition demonstrating 'thanks' for the British Armed Forces
A recent BBC survey revealed that 91% of respondents felt that serving in the British Armed Forces is a job to be proud of.
If that is correct let the population demonstrate 'thanks' by signing up.

Let us as a nation honour them properly.
