Unhygienic genitals can cause health issues when you're on the front line. That's why we teach recruits how to properly shower.

Self praise is no recommendation. The SAS are the elite, RM are only sea borne cannon fodder.

Unlike the US Marines who fly fast Air, the RM can only fly helicopters, RM don't have the capability or ability to fly anything faster or better..

I was never a soldier in the RAF, I was a tradesman, along with others I worked to keep aircraft in the air. We were too precious to waste as cannon fodder like pongo's and cabbageheads.

Have you never heard of the SBS?

RM pilots have flown the Harrier, Sea Harrier and F-18. Haven't you heard of the Fleet Air Arm?

The RM pilots will also be flying the new F-35 from off our new carriers.
