Ha ha, he is a battle hardened frontline infantrymen ..I worry for the recruits.

Yes I knew the guy who was on BBC training officers at Sandringham. From Moss Side. As rough as it gets but could turn on the charm. His girlfriend at the time was a looker.

They’ll probably think his training stick is a selfie stick and introduce themselves with a ‘Hiya.’

Interesting development as apparently the soldier used under the 'snowflake' heading on that poster is looking to quit as soon as possible.

It seems he was most annoyed about it.

Is this really what we, Great Britain, has lowered itself to? God help us.


For my sins, I served in Her Majesty's Royal Navy(twice) my served time for 5 years back in the mid 70's & then recalled back in '82 for the Falklands, HMS Sheffield for those that want to know.


Back then & even years before, you joined up because 1) you wanted to 2) family were in 3) you had to(magistrates etc). To get these 'snowflakes nowadays WTF is this country/world coming to?


God, I sound like a real old git(rant over)

 

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

I worry for your son. They'll probably club together and report him for bullying because he dared to get them out of their pits early, let alone because he launched their boots out of a window. Head shed will probably back them, especially if a minority is involved.

State of the world.

It's only the first phase of an extensive recruitment campaign covering all aspects of our modern society. Next it will be "Do you carry a knife? ... Your country needs you to stick it in people."
