Congrats! The military was the best time of my life. You will meet some amazing people and life long friends. Stay safe!
Any one get an update on Cross of Iron? He likely would have seen action by now if that was his path, hope he's OK. Digging through some of the older high repped threads today, tons of good stuff in the archives here.
His last post was 1 Jan 13. If he joined for 3 years he'd have gotten out this past May. Hopefully he's ok, just busy. Lots of Rogues drop out of sight and are never heard from again from time to time.
Last post I can find in in Jan 2010. Not sure if he saw action, but if he did there may be a few challenges to him; PTSD, injury, etc. Hopefully he's all good, and thanks to CoI for serving.
Stefan is enoying the life of Riley...did personal protection as a TA cavalryman in his tour...got an award and hightly reccomended for his tour. Plenty of pics of him with Prince Charles and Duke of Westminster...He is teaching and living an active lifetyle than I am jelous to the core of... He is one busy guy... Deserves all that comes his way... Not bad for a lad who played and dressed up as a re enactor...And volunteered to go into the lions den when in UK the Terriiers don't have to go anywhere... Stefan is what the backbone of this country used to be made of...and apparantly in his case..still is... Don't know of the other lad though.
No cross of Iron Otto...sorry that why I put it at end of post...Just Stefan was in there talking about his joining up too..so added that...should have been clearer..sorry mate.
No need to apologize, the last line didn't even register, which would have clarified things. Not the first or last time I'm going to be confused by plain English.
