Some people come out of the military knowing all kinds of stuff. They are lost in the mire of the thousands of people grossly exaggerating their effectiveness.

Before you all have a cry, I have spent plenty of time in the bush with ex-army guys. They are like a perfect cog in an awesome machine, trained extremely well to do the job of that cog. And what can a cog do if you take it out of the machine? Not much.

Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. I will believe the "military elite" line when I see it. Yet to see it.

The Military would do it self proud having you and spanners giving the final stamp of approval on potential recruits so they can only hope to aspire to your level of..........Legen............wait for it.................dary.

You should be given honourary Wings and Dager embloms and have your portraits in all unit headquarters
