SAS (Saturdays ans Sundays ie the T/A)
Remember a while back it was reported that they're going to let the TA do more of the regular armys duties, now they're flat out advertising the TA.
All these poor blokes signing up thinking they're doing a bit of team building and mountain climbing - next thing they're on their way over to Afghanistan, bit underhand by the government surprise surprise.
And that's without all the regular armies redundancies which is why this is needed in the first place of course..
TA have been part of the regular army for a while now.
Elite soldiers from special forces serve in 4 para TA and this
Is the same all over... They go to theatre same as regular guys.
It's a different world now, the weekend toy soldier is long gone,
And has been for a while . Respect is due to anyone who serves
In TA as the do exactly the same now and always becareful
When taking the p out of the TA you never know who or where
He's been esp if he's in maroon and in his late 30's ;-)
