Comparing that with what I have experienced in Australia.
I really wish I was british joining the british army,...
A movies a movies skippy, where they try and make things look good. Things like on Jarhead where that Staff Sgt. says something like 'Theres no better sniper then a US Marine sniper!' are stupid and I don't think there are that many british films are there?

Not just films but other things too:
- Bravo Two Zero + i read the book
- General Portrayal in the news/curent affairs/forums
- Documentary on the net detailing Parachute Reg selection
- Articles I've read about the Brit military
- Time I spent in England (one month, June 04)
Things like that

I think English roundabouts are great!
The French have some pretty good ones too but they tend to be the wrong way around for my liking.
