      Just in case you don't know, the SAS and SBS are two separate things.
      The SAS (Special Air Service) are the armies special force, and the SBS (Special Boat Service) are the naval marines special force.
      The use of "Air" was there to play a part in the confusion of the enemy, as was calling the SAS a brigade when there was only a few soldiers, not the 5,000 brigade implied.

    Funniest SAS story I heard was about a recruit that died of exposure on top of a mountain during the selection course. A search party found the unfortunate recruits body, and as they stood around him in a moment of quiet reflection someone eventually broke the silence and asked " What happens now? The OC responded by saying " Well he's fuckin failed selection for a start!" Everyone pissed themselves laughing.

      I was all of 8 years old, give or take, when that kicked off ...
      What really made it memorable was our family had a maternal cousin, who was a Royal Marine Commando, living with us. He only stayed over when on leave.
      I know very little, since he was a pretty taciturn guy, whom barely spoke even to my parents. Nice guy, but had that ... air ... about him that is pretty impossible to describe, but even I knew he wasn't to be messed with, even as a kid.
      The scant details I do know comes from my dad, who said that Stan did at least one tour of Northern Ireland during the early '70s. As he was born in Trinidad, and 6'2", I'm surprised he made it out ...
      He was placed on standby to be deployed to the Islands, but never was sent. Probably why he quit after his time was up, as he lost too many mates over there, and wasn't a damn thing he could do about ...
      He moved to Southern Wales, got married, had a couple of kids, and became almost a vegan - possibly because he saw so much death close up. Even in old photos I found of him, after the deaths of my parents, it was clear he had that look that, now I'm 48, was that of seeing shit he couldn't speak off ...
      ... but the real tragedy was, despite his diet, and keeping up his fitness, due to a hard to detect heart defect, like his mum, he died of a heart attack, in only his mid-late 50's ... way too young ...
      Sorry about the long comment, but yours reminded me of him, and the likely humour with his mates in the same barracks ...

    During World War Two My grandpa was in bed trying to go to sleep while his family were downstairs eating dinner and all of a sudden a bomb hit his house. his bedroom floor Collapsed and he landed on the dinner table with everyone eating around him!
    A few years later he and his friends were out one night with a few too many drinks and one of his friends decided it would be funny to tie his other friend to a tree! They all had a good laugh and went home, forgetting they had just tied their friend to the tree! The next day everyone in my grandpa’s military office was running around trying to find out where my grandpa’s friend was!

    Man when I was a teenager, all I wanted was to be able to have stories like this. I joined the military (Army National Guard) and got completely screwed over! Because I joined at the end of the desert Storm deal. And because I had a misdemeanor on my record from when I was 17 for illegal trespassing. Yep that's all it was for, illegal trespassing. The recruiter said, oh yeah you can be anything you want to be in the Army. So I decided to go into military police because I had a GED. I planned to get in through the national Guard and then request to go fully active. Why you could do it that way made no sense, when I could just say hey can I be fully active now? Oh no, you can't do that. You have to do it this stupid way. However, when I got there they told me that my recruiter lied to me and that the only thing I could be at this time was a cook. I tried to fight it and almost went to the brig for cussing out a captain. But then I ended up getting discharged under a medical discharge. Because they were able to find something in my past about a x-ray on my back and they said because I had had that X-ray on my back and that I didn't disclose that, I had a back injury and that I wouldn't be able to serve because of this hypothetical back injury. The Army discharged me on a "other than honorable" discharge through medical. Single worst thing that happened to me in my life in my opinion. I wanted nothing more than to be in the military. I went through ROTC, I read all the books on everything from infantry to snipers. I was totally gung-ho. And when they discharged me, it killed me. I spiraled downward out of control and resorted to drugs and crime. It took having children for me to snap out of my self-loathing and depression and become a decent successful person in life. I thought it was a military that was going to make that of me. But I still to this day see these guys with these incredible stories and I go back to that feeling I felt the day I was discharged from my lifelong dream. Life is never what you think it's going to be.

      I’ve had a lot of former Marines discharged for medical reasons. I’ve also had one of my marines that lied about an arrest on his enlistment package. I’ve never heard of anyone in my life getting separated under other than honorable for back issues not disclosed. Matter of fact to be discharged under other than honorable, you either have to fail drug test or you have multiple disciplinary issues like being arrested, DUI, theft, or NJP. They will definitely not discharge a recruit in boot camp with an OTH. It will be an admin discharge.

    • @TheTexasViking
      @TheTexasViking Рік тому

      @@CD-pk7xr just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. In fact I still have the paperwork sitting at home that says other than honorable discharge for medical purposes. I even had the idiot recruiter call me up two weeks after I got back and asked if I was ready to go. And I said go where? And that's when I "explained" to him that he lied to me and told me everything was going to be fine and not to worry about the misdemeanor. And that when I got there they gave me a rash of shit saying that I couldn't be an MP because of the stupid fucking misdemeanor. And again the goddamn misdemeanor was just unlawful trespassing. And not to mention you said marines. I wasn't in the Marines. God I wish I could have been! But I was in the army. Went to fort McClellan, Alabama, to be an MP. I got through the first days of the adjustment battalion and when they went to call our line numbers to go down range, mine was one of several that wasn't called. So I went to the adjustment battalion commander's office, as we were told to do. And he informed me because of my previous record I could not be an mp. I told him show me where it shows anywhere that says I can't be an MP for having unlawful trespassing misdemeanor. That's the part where I was talking about where I almost went to the brig and he threatened me several times to throw me in the brig, because I kept going off on him with actual facts that he was not prepared for. I actually read my contract for the military. And I told him that I wasn't going to go through schooling to be a fucking cook. I told him I already know how to cook slop. So I don't need to be trained on how to do it. I came in here for a specific reason and join the National Guard so that I could get into the actual military and now you're fucking with my goal! But sorry to tell you son, you are incorrect about the medical discharge and the other than honorable discharge. But I'm sure it's not the first time you've been wrong.

I'm very proud of my children and wouldn't have wanted it differently. But part of me does still have resentment for not having that camaraderie let the military gives you. Believe me it took a lot of wind out of my sails when I got screwed the way I did. I still love the military, don't get me wrong. I have the utmost respect for our men and women of the armed forces. Just not much respect for that recruiter.
