Quote: riversideboy "my son is a royal marine and last year spent 7 months in sangin, afghan probably one of the worst places in the world.
you wouldn't believe some of the videos he brought back home taken from their helmet cams, the minute they set foor out of their patrol base they get hammered with bullets coming from people they can't see. spending 7 months watching lads being brought back to wooton bassett and dreading your doorbell ringing in case someone is at your door in uniform. all that for 16k a year, they certainly don't do it for the money.whether they are the best at what they do is irrelevant they all do a great job, and puts things in perspective at the little things that bother us.'"
my wifes cousin is one of the 2 lads the governemnt is trying to get compo back from (i think thats the current situation, either that or its still not been paid out) after he was shot in Iraq
they all do a great job and should be applauded
