Army cuts
In another forum I have read that '5000' soldiers are planning a protest march on London.
and....."one of the decision makers on disbanding these regiments is visiting 2RRF (one of the regiments being disbanded) tomorrow in Celle, Germany... He is expecting a march past... The boys are going to *ahem* give him something else.." In view of DaveG's former army connections, and his present location, I ask him to please report any incident the german media may report, because it is not likely to be reported in UK media. |

Re: Army cuts
My cousin has been told that he is being made redundant. He is a sergeant in the RAF and has been there for 21 years. After 22 years in the RAF you can claim full RAF pension. My cousin's redundancy will come into force when he is 7 weeks short of the 22 years, therefore, saving the RAF a fortune. He is not the only one this is happening to, there are hundreds up and down the country.
No matter how good a life style the armed forces personnel may have when we are not at war, I would never recommend to anyone that they join up. People like my cousin, who have seen active service, are robbed blind in the most underhand way when it comes to their pensions. |

Re: Army cuts
Come to think of it, why do you guys need a large military? Here's a scenario: Privately, Her Majesty's Government, whatever they say in public, is commited to the EU. When Germany decides that the only way out of the Euro crisis is a political union, there will be a new European Defence Force, headquartered in ... mmm, the Bendlerblock is still standing in Berlin.:rolleyes: National forces will cease to exist. On the up side, you won't have to join any US adventures into, say, Iran or North Korea. You can get rid of your nuclear subs, and axe the aircraft carriers ... save a whole bunch of money! Make a deal with the Argentinians for the Malvinas. Maybe they will throw in Lionel Messi.:alright: A great footballer is, in today's world at least, worth much more than honour, and you could always work out a deal on sharing any oil that may be there. It will really be peace in our time.

Re: Army cuts
Massive cuts for the military were announced within the first weeks of this government and at the time some posters on here defended those cuts...but we were told most of the cuts would be made in office jobs and such...that was yet another bare faced lie.
