You're taking about 92 here Taddy, to the best of my knowledge the standards & restrictions had quietly been dropped from the late 80's onwards. The government of the day had decided boxes must be ticked to meet equality & diversity rules, the Army were not going to get an exception on this regardless of the particulars that being a soldier means.


Know nothing politicoes sticking their oar in ruined many once respected & disciplined professions.
