Rum Ration

It must be an easy exam

I really can't see why they couldn't just roll all 3 Services into the RN.

Front line Brown jobs to the RM
Trades to where they fit best
Cull some of the add ons like the RLC
Light blue to FAA

simples!

I'm not sure who originally said ''The Army is a projectile to be fired by the Navy.''

But it was definitely me who said ''The RAF are a bunch of cunts.''

Wise words.

Several defence commentators are likening the possible amalgamation of the three services into a unified structure as producing something like the USMC.

This seems like a splendid idea to me and one that is long overdue. The Royal Navy becomes part of the Royal Marines and supplies sea transport and boaty things. The Army becomes part of the Royal Marines and supplies land transport, long range snipers, cooks, bottlewashers and all manner of things that Perce is good at. The RAF becomes part of the Royal Marines and supplies air transport, CAS and brylcreem supplies.

The Royal Marines re-form all of our missing Commando Units and in turn supply the three new support arms with tradition, esprit de corps and very importantly - something to aspire to. Perce in particular will love this; the opportunity for them to become lean, bronzed gods, with chiselled good looks, supernaturally fit and utterly attractive to any female on the planet will be irresistable to the average Tom. Couple this to being taught how to wash and shower on a regular basis and the Army is in a deffo win-win situation.

This might work out very well after all

I heard the RM is being absorbed into the RAF Regiment along with the Paras. You are all pretty much the same after all.

The training for all three is pretty much identicle anyway so no major dramas there.

Was that a hint of a bite?

I'd start re-moulding your beret pronto if you want to fit in.

2DD, that isn't the RAF Regt, it's the 3rd Yorks Whippet handling team.
Eeh Bah Gum! Summat's up at t'mill!
