    We did mostly civvi-style biathlon racing, not so much military orientated, although the basic skills are the same.

    We did a few military 'patrol' races though - 20km's with weight, obstacles, and command tasks.

    And no, I'm not a Royal Marine :wink:

    I used to love arctic deployment!! 3 months up 'propper' north - nothing but snow and ice. It used to be the best regular deployment we did (I'd even rate it better than Belize) :):)

    Again, WTF?

    Oh I seeeeeee.... you are implying that Miss Marple is a woman?

    What was it about that post that offended you? In what way does Marple saying that I made him (or her) laugh indicate a chip on her (or his) shoulder?

    Theres a few photo's of us doing the racing, and competitions, but because the routes are so big, there's not many. The shooting though, TONS of photos.

    But sorry, I'm not directing you to any photo's, and certainly not sending you any! I'm being deadly serious when I say I can't trust anyone. While you probably AREN'T a terrorist, I can't trust someone who I (VERY) vaguely 'know' over the 'net. And while I wouldn't mind if you SAW a few photo's of me, you wouldn't know who it was. And then there's everyone else in the pictures too.... I like security :lol:

    CWNT - for the translation:

    From a previous thread where good old Coltroll used the word, I think 'Boabie' is a scottish word for c0ck mate.

    Sounds too much like boobie to me though... I'll never say I love boobies in Scotland :lol: (Although I guess its pronounced differently...)

    Whats the point of this thread, maybe It's just me, but I find It a bit odd that a forum member Is trying to find military photos on the web and then trying to match them up with other forum members.

    makes me think of Jeremy Kyle this morning. Watching it in a waiting room with my uncle and one other guy and we were having a debate over whether the couple who were on were gay or not. One was a dude that used to be a woman and the other was a woman who used to be a dude. In the end the agreement was that it was just weird on every level
