You're Canadian, so how about naming some units?

How about 3rd Cdn Inf. Div.? They held back and survived the 12th SS probing operations on D-Day and afterwards.

How 'bout the famed "Tunnel Rats" in Vietnam?

Aussie/NZ SASR during the Vietnam War

Well nice to see at least 1 Aussie mention, but I'd correct one thing. The only Kiwi's there were part of 2/4th Battalion RAR.... not the SAS.

I'd add:
The Light Horse at Bersheeba
The Light Horse at Galipolli
The 10th/27th Infantry Battalion (Highest decorated Australian Unit, 48 battle honours in 2 wars, and 11 Victoria Crosses)
3RAR at Kapyong
6RAR at Long Tan
Z Troop commandos in Timor against the Japanese
39th Battalion at Isurava
The "Rats of Tobruk"

It seems to me that the Australians are the forgotten army by the rest of the world when it comes to recognising brave actions.

Just to add another, just to prove I'm not totally biased.
How about the SOG in Vietnam. Awesome soldiers, for Americans

There is a history of English/Scottish border conflict which doesnt relate to the war for indpendence. Ironically the Union between both countries was as a result of a Scottish financial disaster.

The SAS the best current military unit in the world!

Plus the Kingdoms of England & Scotland had already been united for a century so any full union was only a matter of time.

So should the British take credit for the actions of the Canadians, The Australians, New Zealanders and the South Africans?

what about the US Marine scout snipers in Vietnam? not only were they snipers, but they were trained in artillery and airstrike operations as well.
