MS164,

In the early days of MF the majority of members were Royal Marines, as the Forum grew it was decided to have a private area basically for those of the same ilk. Membership by invitation.The Bunker.
The Retreat grew with the same idea basically for none Royal Marines.
Although various members could be found in both.

Both being areas away from the walters and schoolboy post. :roll:
Not to mention the political correctness attitude by some who could never get the joke, (banter). :shocked!:

I can only presume by their current visibility that Jay is seriously considering opening the hallowed areas back up, a great first step towards returning this once thriving forum back to it's former glory!

Now where's that sheep shagging medic...somebody is going to have to sweep out the Bunker and wash the cups up!

Thats a laugh, Doc couldn't turn a big letter "J" on a greased spindle without getting distracted by a wooly coat!

Glad you didn't volunteer me to do the washing-up H_N, I'm not allowed in the Bunker!
I'm only Royal's sister (and grand-daughter, and great-grand-daughter...)
:lol:

I'm off to go and lurk in the Ladies' Room by myself!

On the plus side it does make it quite easy to catch up with any new threads, as there seems to only be one new post a week.....

As for the kids asking how they can become snipers straight from the AFCO or how to join SF with a gammy leg and a weight problem, even THEY have deserted the place!
