Let us know how you get on.

Anyone who has been in or near firefights can tell you that the 'buzz' never leaves you. Injuries and death are horrific but in the main, young lads coming back after combat are not in the least affected and most hungered to go back.

As soon as I read the opening message I suspected that sooner or later we would see a comment from someone who actually has first hand experience and would totally embarrass the OP

so, with Afghanistan over and the armed forces in a lull, where do all the young lads look to for excitement?

I am not sure the army does enough after they have done the 26 years ( or whatever the time is now ) , he was in Bosnia aswell and is still haunted by what he saw

My Bampi organised a bit of arms supplying for the Republicans in the Spanish Civil War. Out of Cardiff Docks .

Kudos to your gramps Mick, what happened to those who volunteered to fight for the Republic is a travesty; my grandfather was totally traumatised by his experiences on the Somme!

It was also good money but far more moved into the anti-piracy force protection. Great pay and generally much safer too.

There is only one legitimate army in Syria, as there is in any country.

I suggest you read the title of this thread. Anybody who is not a member of the legitimate Syrian army is regarded as being a terrorist in Syria.
