    I was an engineer on the Seaking helo's out there in the RN, so I can't pretend I was doing a proper job like you boy's :) but I had my fair share of incoming at Alamorter (Alamara) and Basra for me that was scary enough lol I was out there 6 times (4 month tours ish) from 2003 to 2006

    I know for a fact that Jamie and his oppo's were sent everywhere they could possibly get into a fight but there was no bloody water. Ulster, Iraq, Bosnia, Afgahnistan.

    Britannia rules the waves. eh Jamie?

    Never did like the idea of getting wet anyway ken, to claustrophobic in those big grey tin cans, in fact don't forget Sierra Leone that was so much fun on HMS Ocean for 5 months :rolleyes:

    Funny one this, Got a call to say vechile parked outside the A pod and was not on the vehicle list. Set about it with the robot, blow the locks off, the windows out, ripped the doors, boot & bonnet open but found nothing. The owner came out of camp to find his car wrecked :D His car had not been added onto our list but was on the previous battle groups :rolleyes:
