Ek dink Tab het oor die UK Paras gepraat. Nie die RSA Parabats. Kyk na die forum en lees al die poste op fisiese opleiding. Kyk na die British Army webwerf en sien die fisiese standaarde. Daar is baie inligting op hierdie webwerf en daardie werf. My Afrikaans is kak, ek is jammer - My eerste taal is engels. Daar is min mense op hierdie webwerf maar daar is baie goed inligting in oud poste. Dit is moeilik om in die Paras wees sonder 'n Britse paspoort.
It is not my war. I do not agree with it but it is my duty to protect and serve the man next to me whose war it is and who does agree with it. I will die for this man. And one day, when it is my war that needs to be fought and when only I agree with it, he will be there for me, ready to die by my side.
