RIAT Colours Parade
* Correct me if I've got this wrong, there's personnel parade rehearsing for a week, they're NOT confind to camp but given a curfew, provided with sports, entertainments and bars, (even golf and flat screen TVs I've heard!) and staying in buildings - not tents??? Whilst I agree it's yet another task we have to fulfil, have a thought for your mates deployed elsewhere in the world, there's worse places you could be! We're in the military, get a grip. If you don't have a sense of humour you shouldn't have joined!!!
So you find it acceptable to give people you expect in this day and age we live in to go off to war, a bloody curfew so they are tucked up in bed like good little children ?
I suppose the Not so great leader of men the G/Capt in charge is also abstaining from being out after dark...... I bet not.
Why not go the whole hog, give em all ASBO's and ankle bands to monitor their location.......
