So lugging 35lbs of armour around for the last six months isn't a complete waste of effort then :o

Glad you're in one bit mate, least you got home early :wink:

Good to hear that you're back mate - well done.

I seem to remember that Selly Oak can be a rough place - be wary :D

Better than where you've been though - just.

Four of you fixed up corner beds and taken over the ration I hope.

Get well !

Welcome back & get well, nothing permanent I hope?

As for Selly Oak, only know what's in the papers (not much), you can probably tell us more than we can tell you!

alreet guys!
im the sister of a marine in 45 over in afghanistan and my family and i are having a mini campaign. this is the main gist of it...

"Our soldiers and marines in Afghanistan are lamentably underequipped for the job they are being asked to carry out. Additionally they are not getting the necessary help when returning after service to enable them to cope with the traumatic experiences they have undergone. The fact that the vehicles they are using are often inferior to those used by our allies is a national disgrace. These brave men and women deserve much better."

If youre up for it then please get ur families and mates to sign it on:

come on guys help me make them take more notice!

Thanks for all your kind words, they mean alot. As for me I'm fine, the worst is my arm, I'v damaged some nervous and carn't fell most of my arm or the right side of my hand. I also carn't walk very far. So if I'm totally honest i feel like shit. But i think cause iam not doing nothing is making it worst. My credit is about to go, so see yous soon thanks again.
wato.
