Know your Regiments.

Merlin.

No, neither I'm afraid.

 

OK, to get this military quiz moving on again, who or what was a piffer?

 

PIFFER

"Prestonpans Independent Female Frogcatchers?"

 

Interesting thought, but too far west of Suez!

 

piffer

Pakistan India Frontier Force???

 

Damn close, but too late!

 

piffer

Punjab? I know what it is but not sure on the name!
Punjab Independent Frontier Force?
Please Inform Freddy Frinton?

 

Close enough, Merlin:

Punjab Irregular Frontier Force
(I suppose "Members of the above")

Got it from Richard Holmes' excellent book "Sahib: The British Soldier in India" -- well worth a read

Quiz back to you

 

Regiments

I did have 'Irregular' for next post.
As we've now spread wide world now what's this?

 

Merlin.

It looks like a badge!




(There's always one, isn't there?!!!!!).

 

Regiments

No David, it's the first Delta Wing Irish Space Rocket on take off!
(Especially for our Junior Space Fans.)

 

Regiments

OK, bit unfair that one, it's a WW2 Jugland Chetnic badge!
Here's an easy one for you! :roll:
Bonus if you know the Regimental Song!

 

The song has got to be "Who ate all the pies?"

Go on, put us out of our misery!

 

Regiment?

Good God Ossie, how long have you been away? In any case I don't remember, but who cares?
