Fantastic old vids, but each one goes out of sync audio/video which is a shame but still a great historical documentary 👍

There's a viaduct on the M8 in Glasgow that's taking 5 years to repair (2021-2026). During those 5 years there are long tailbacks as four lanes of traffic have to merge into two. Journey times are considerably extended. I bet the Royal Engineers would have got the job done a lot more quickly.

what role in the RE is best if you wanted to be an infantryman but know you should pick a trade
@av4rici0u55 28 күн бұрын
There is no best trade, everyone likes different things, if you are wanting to do infantry stuff just don't pick geo or armoured engineer.

Is this still a thing?
@bigmacntings7451 3 ай бұрын
yes it's still a thing....The swim test is actually pretty basic. Anyone of a certain age will remember the swimming proficiency medals they gave out at school. What these guys are doing as training would be basically in the same ballpark as gold/level 2 lifesaver.Not really that advanced but necessary as training as a "just in case" scenario. sort of minimum level for anybody. The specialist guys blow this stuff out of the water...my old swimming instructor(at age 10) went to train frogmen for the forces,so I got quite a bit of a drilling when I was younger.

Harding failed, EOKA won, 300 men against an empire. Enosis wasn't achieved as the ultimate aim, instead independence. EOKA were not terrorists they were freedom fighters, as was Nelson Mandella, himself a freedom fighter. The British and Harding were good at creating divide and rule - during the EOKA campaign by the Greek Cypriots the majority population of the island, the Turkish Cypriot minority were turned against the Greek Cypriots by the British. EOKA were heroes, example March 1957, Grigorios Afxentiou finally burnt alive by the British in a cave as he would not surrender, after hours of battle. Street names were named after him.

Always remember being sent to the Grenadier Guards to install some comms for them on excercise. The fellas were all digging trenches whilst the CO, Major Sir double barrelled surname, was sitting in a deckchair, with his shooting stick, and two spaniels, directing operations, via a very subserviant sergeant 😂😂😂

About right for the Grenadiers. We used to call them 'The dukes and duchesses of mincing around'. The men and the NCO's were sound enough, the officers spent all their time discussing complete waffle and having a hard on for the storied history of the regiment. As a nco to officer in another regiment, I felt as out of place as a fart in a colander surrounded by them.
