Bad Lads Army - Para Staff?
Bad Lads Army - Para Staff?
I've only just started watching BLA? Am I right in assuming that both the section corporals are ex para reg? Are any of the other staff?

Over 20 years ago, the BBC did a whole series on the Parachute Regiment, called THE PARAS. That was pretty good. I recon they should think about doing it again, only for a more modern follow-threw of Para reg training.
The only problem I find with bad lads army, lads army, the paras, is there media orientated. Even the series on the paras, left out all the swearing, the beastings, basically everything that seperates the paras from the rest of the army, training wise. Then again, there not exactly going to go showing all that on TV.

James, I think many people laugh at out kit now, let alone in 50 years, lol.
Check it out, Independently targetting particle-beam phalanx. VWAP! Fry half a city with this puppy. We got tactical smart-missles, phased plasma pulse-rifles, RPG's. We got sonic electronic ballbreakers, we got nukes, we got knives, sharp sticks..."

Only Joe Murray is an ex-para. I think Nayoukas is RGJ. The provo sergeant started out in Royal Ordanance corps and went on to SF. The rest of the RP's are non-military bouncers and bodyguards. As for the officers and the sergeant, don't know.

I got this from the ITV website: Nookie and Joe
Corporals Richard Nauyokas (Nookie) and Joe Murray have both served in war. Nookie fought in Kosova and Joe - who spent twenty two years with the para's - has fought in Sierra Leone and Kosova. Both are now retired from the army but Joe is currently working for a civilian company in Iraq as a 'Deployment Supervisor' for a communications company that supplies the British army with phone and internet communication with home. He will back off to Iraq on Saturday.
