1. How has the credit crunch affected members of the Forces?

Posted by richardglenn11 on Friday, January 02 (41 reads)

Hi All, I work for a well known motor manufacture and wish to understand how the credit crunch has affected sales to members of the forces personally. In the UK a down turn in retail sales has been largely blamed on redundancies or the threat of such, couple that with a reduction in earnings due to the lack of bonus or commissions and it has had a serious knock on effect on sales, to the best of my knowledge members of the armed forces are not effected by the above, so I am left with the ..... »Read More« View/Add Comments .....

2. Geordie Dropped In

Posted by Jackwyn on Sunday, December 28 (57 reads)

An extract from my book Geordie Dropped In, to maybe make you smile on an otherwise dull day:- A favourite place for us soldiers in Tripoli was without doubt, a long private sandy beach; kept exclusively for British personnel. Located on the beach was a well-patronised N.A.A.F.I. where hot thirsty soldiers could purchase ice-cold beer to help cool down. It was a haven, offering shade from the scorching sun, as temperatures normally rose to at least 130 ..... »Read More« View/Add Comments .....

3. Love Soldiers

Posted by CSK001 on Tuesday, December 23 (41 reads)

Hi, If you ask me who is the man I believe most other than my family members and relatives I will say a soldier. Few of my friends are in army and I am always eager to know about their experiences. We plan an outdoor party and enjoy a lot together. CSK <a href=http://www.vacationtraveldeals.org>Travel Deals</a> View/Add Comments .....

5. Geordie Dropped In

Posted by Jackwyn on Sunday, December 21 (84 reads)

Hi I look in the mirror and see a decrepit 74 year old, long gone are the days when I was a supremely fit professional boxer, who at the age of eighteen in 1952, signed for three years in the R.E.M.E attaining the rank of substansive corporal. Whilst serving in the R.E.M.E. mostly in Tripoli North Africa, I was sent on a P.T.I. course in Egypt, which I passed with flying colours. After leaving the regular army, I joined the T.A Parachute regiment serving f..... »Read More« View/Add Comments .....

8. Kurdistan

Posted by Stanley1975 on Monday, December 01 (153 reads)

(I've altered/left out some dates/places/names to protect people's privacy. So it might read a bit 'strange'.) I am determined to get at least to Dohuk (North Iraq/Kurdistan). Even though I know setting a strict time schedule never really works outside Europe. But it always gives me something to do while I'm on the road: changing it, reviewing it, swearing at it. This trip proved to be no different. Leaving Diyarbakir airport at 09:00 am I'..... »Read More« View/Add Comments .....

9. Bloggers - It passes the time...

Posted by uncle_vanya on Monday, November 24 (172 reads)

There I was a few nighs ago, a very restless night. I'm a bit of an insomniac, so if I cannot get any rest, I am wandering around the corridors of my flat like a lost soul in the night. So I decides to sit down and go on the 'Internet', good pastime if all else fails. Years ago I would have been wandering around the Barrack Block burping and farting and moaning about my lot!! I was on various Forums like this one that I subscribe to, apply my 'cutting edge' intellect and my Two-pe..... »Read More« View/Add Comments .....

Posted by Lazarus135 on Wednesday, November 12 (235 reads)

I'm hoping someone can help put my mind at rest. I sent off my RG8 three weeks ago and have had it back requesting more info from my GP. My wife was killed in a car accident 2 years ago and I got signed off from work for a week due to stress/bereavement. I wasn't under any form of medication at all I just needed a week to get help start adjusting.

14. Mt Everest skydive 2008

Posted by Skydog on Friday, October 24 (301 reads)

Mt Everest Skydive October 2008 The Everest skydive became a project of Chris and Cath Parsons for two main reasons. Firstly, as it had never been attempted before it was a ‘world first’, an achievement in itself as there are not too many ‘world firsts’ left to undertake. Secondly, and more importantly, it was a chance to raise money for the 2008 Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal (registered charity 219279) to provide some future financial support for the military personnel and th..... »Read More« View/Add Comments .....

15. Calling any ex-French Foreign Legion

Posted by randomiser on Wednesday, October 22 (416 reads)

If there are any ex-French Foreign Legion members out there I would really appreciate some help. Several years ago my Father had a heart attack and this spurred him to start searching out his old Army mates. He has traced quite afew but one particular bloke remains elusive. This particular chap who he went through training with was ex-FFL and the only things my old man can remember about him, apart from his name, was he was ex-Guards prior to his FFL service, serv..... »Read More« View/Add Comments .....
