Re: is my friend a liar?

He is 34 now. What do you mean by 'service'? Sorry but I know nothing about army life, I just want to know if he's telling me porkies. Im going to start calling him uncle albert because of all his army stories. He told me he spent a lot of time in army jail smoking cannabis too. I hate liars. Thank...

Re: Considering joining the army

Just remember that when you join you could be chased around all day by some snotty nose 18 year old who is to young to have started shaving, and you will be tempted to tear his head off and stick some where that produces the brown stuff Lol this cracked me up, I can already imagine it, guess that's...

The rifles

Hi lads, just looking for any information on the rifles, been reading up on the history and overall feel of the rifles as a regiment and it seems right up my ally.

Re: Being Gay in the army -What is it REALLY like, truthfull

I have to agree with the vast majority here. And as a film geek I'm going to use a popular film quote "If you don't like the answers given, maybe you should cese asking scary questions" That's from pulp fiction by the way, a classic. I'd like to add I personally have nothing against homose...

Re: Considering joining the army

Also I like to think of my age as a positive, I have plenty life experience after all, I know how to take orders and carry them out without question.

Re: Considering joining the army

In relation to your question, it is my strong belief that mental ability is stronger than brawn, providing you pass selection and your willing to give 110% there isn't any reason your age should be a factor, your within the Age to join therefor are just as welcome as everybody else to attempt to do...

Re: Don't fear the reaper

Do I fear death? Not particularly. I don't want to die but I know that at some stage I will. If I die while serving in the military then that is great, if I live, that is great but I want to know that I died honorably and having done what I wanted. Whether there is a heaven or not- others move on a...

Don't fear the reaper

Re: Help for a British Army soldier needed!!

As a guy who himself has been in trouble for my sense of humor I sympathies with your friend, but like the guy above I'm not certain what good we can do. Your friend might be lucky and get a slap on the wrist, or they might choose to make an example of him if this is the case I can't see that anythi...
