29 only get normal army pay, if individuals have qualifications that merit extra pay they will get it, ie.e para, diver etc etc. but there is no aditional pay just for being a member of 29

148 - not too sure, normal pay + every member gets para trained so will get para pay in addition.

Well after reading the telegraph article I can't say it surprises me, from what i remember to be a soldier you never had to be the sharpest tool in the box. Also the article keeps banging on about the next generation of battlefield weapons, all this from a country that has completely failed to intro...

Just stay away from my local Sainsburys OK? I don't want to worry you Artist but I'm I'll be passing through Cheshire in a week or two's time, although I'll be on the M6 so shouldn't encounter any Sainsbury's - although -you never know :lol: Seriously though, why didn't the government just introduc...

I'd prefer it if it was an offence to use a mobile in a moving vehicle - full stop. I have a mobile for work and its fitted with a proper hands free kit by my company, so I am in effect within the law. However there's been a few occassions whilst driving and talking to a customer/collegue that after...

Hhhmmm. I've a few friends who work the circuit and paying £500 a day isn't a lot of money for CP operatives in somewhere like afghanistan. if your mum and dad are paying £500 quid direct to the guy himself then maybe, but if a company is charging them this amount per man then ask a few more questio...

the problem with the way the RN recruits pilots is that they are all trained on rotary wing first, then once you have done that for a few years you can apply for harrier. consequently everyone who wants to be a harrier pilot in the RN has to be a helo pilot first, those who fail as a harrier pilot c...

it depends on what you want to do. anything of a technical nature will require a uni degree in the relevent subject to be taken seriously, pilot -well say no more. the seamanship branch is probably the biggest and therefore easiest branch to enter. there's still quite a few of the old school matelot...

I take it from the style of your post and inclination for middle eastern languages you'd like to work for one of the 'government agencies' that occupy opposite sides of the River Thames. You'd be better off getting a job first. Also not too sure of whether they'd be happy with you in the TA, mabay m...
