Haha, oh my god this thread is a joke, I'm in the Household Caverly and just got back from afgan. Don't no want some people are talking about but i've got £2,300 back from taxes, and around £6000 from my wages. So yes its true about the money when you come back, As for all the escape and evasions, where they catch you are interrogate you is all bollocks, only the SF (spacial forces(Pathfinders and SAS)) no-one else in any other services go through what they go through. You sign on the dotted line even before you go to training so why wouldn't you no that? No-one deserve to i had 3 mates die out there, so i wasn't impressed by that little comment. Your dad might of been, what regiment was he? Northern Ireland is a lot calmer than Iraq or Afgan. Would rather go northen ireland anyday least theres some hope i'd come back Damo....
