British Army, currently out and about in a hot country. But raining like England here, so feels like I am at home :-)

Currently deployed with my Omega Sea master, will be swapping on R & R for a rolex.

I've just joined the British Army (TA) at the grand old age of 33. Currently under training with a view to commissioning in September. (with luck, hard work and large cash bribes to the DS, that is!)

Never personally served, but nonetheless very cool thread. Nice to see so many members from the armed services from both sides of the pond on here. Your service is very much appreciated.
