Yes, but this is the General Discussion forum. I.e., anything goes.
No Topic!!! Page 3
You tell him Aaron. We can have comedy & we can have debates about serious issues. Then we can combine the two if you like.

And we're discussing Generals. I know i make it look so easy 
I just want my baby home. 
Oh my f**ksy.
That was a really great post, so I'm sure no one will be telling you to f**koff.
I don't know anyone who even knows anyone in the army, so all the stuff you tell us is always news to me.
How ridiculous it all is, like a bad joke.
My best friend's son has just finished his training and will be posted very soon. He is nervous but excited. I have known him for all of his 21 years and can imagine a little of how you are feeling. We are all petrified. Today our local news featured the funeral of a 19 year old from a town 12 miles away from us. He was killed by 'friendly fire.' This is a very difficult time.
It's sickening, the situation our ever-failing Government has put our troops in. Situation of the war and reasons behind it aside, if they are deployed then they should at very least have the money that they need to support themselves, their families, and not have to pay for their own gear like that. My salary, even as a student, is higher than those quoted there, and I certainly don't have to buy anything myself. It's a deeply troubling situation.
FYI, a friend of mine is in the armed forces (not sure which offhand), but works here in Blighty. He fixes planes.
Well it looks like we're gradually pulling out of Iraq. Maybe it will be Afghanistan soon after. I don't think Brown is going to be the PM you all feared.
Since he's Labour, it's impossible to not be the PM I feared. 
Loopey, my thoughts are with you,your friend & her son. I wish that brave young soldier all my best and full support.
New News.
600 soldiers from the 4 Rifles Battle group who safetly exited from Iraq’s second city, are living in an airbase under flimsy tents as cover. However Diplomats evacuated there have been given proper buildings to live in.
Three serviceman have been killed this summer & 15 injured as insurgents bombard Basra Air Station with up to 10 rockets a day.
807 high explosive rounds have smashed into the Air base in the last 5 months.
So our soldiers live like rats in their skinny tents, dodging bullets & rockets. Pleading for more protection & getting ignored. All the while the Diplomats look down from their hard cover.
Whitehall you are arse holes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Must be due to our 'special relantionship' that we have with America.

Its like the special relationship a pimp has with a prostitute.
Chris Langham got 10 months
But hopefully he'll be out in five.
Not wanting to start any more debates about stuff and things, just saying, I feel sorry for him, still quite like him.
Well, he does like children...
