WHo cares? Obviously big enough to kick in the door to Iraq, look up that question on a search engine.

If you got off the MoD, would you please give it back to them, before they get annoyed. :o :o

The Royal Marines are part of the Navy. (normally 6,000 all ranks Band service and commando's and long may it remain so. Formed 1664 and still the best!)
