Nuts

Post by freestyler_onli »

In this weeks edition of Nuts Magazine, theres an article about some Marines who were found sleeping off a drunken night in a shalet. Below it, there is a picture of what I believe to be a Para (winged badge on cherry beret). Just wondered if anyone else spotted this.

Oh its really obvious how to tell a para from a bootie, paras wear burgandy t-thirts, drainpipe jeans, chucka boots and green silk pilot jacket. Royal doesnt have to advertise who he is, its all in the chat up line :D

Silk? Since when? I was ripped off! Last time I saw it, it was in a state of disrepair, mopping up an oil spill in the garage, anyway.

As I recall, there were two orders of kit: Drinking kit (as described above) and f$%k off kit. The latter was your best bird-pulling duds which, when your muckers saw you heading out the gate, usually prompted a "f$%k oooooff!", like you had any chance at all even with the Gucci kit on!

Fs, yes i spotted it, and e-mailed the mag, telling them to get their act together, para`s can`t hold their liquor, :wink: :drinking: and yes, it was a "Red" beret on the pixeled out mug.

Falling down kit! :lol: The clothing that would survive anything. Drink, vomit, mud, blood, etc. Never went out drinking in a dress or skirt. Embarrassing if you fall down. :o

The 'young lady' is the Nuts office manager (according to the new article.) She's learning sword fighting and self defence and the like. All to do with Kill Bill.
