As an ex-Artillery gunner I have only one thing to say. We NEVER had just the basic package of SKY

Apart from that I agree about the gay tankers remark

As ex REME, I look down on you all.

Only cause you'd be akip on the top bunk of your comfy bed in your 434's wendy house

Well nothing against REME as they always fix my toys!
Artillery well as long as I don't hear over the radio "oops" ever again, especially when I'm down range.
Armored, well I've never seen one with dirty boots, so I agree "Gay Tankers"
Infantry, The group of which all other services try to emulate. (except the Engineers)

Engineers "God Bless the Engineers"

ah the artillery , i am a twenty year servant myself "" BE AT THE BURSTING DOORS OF DOOM AND IN THE DARK DELIVER US"
