For context, I once made a document to show that my Unit had been committed to over 800 days of activity in a year (you have to include each individual person’s time as a separate day). There are lies, damned lies and statistics.

This. We couldn’t have the Infantry get smaller though, could we?!… 🤦♂️

Anyone else think that Morrissey meant to sum up the lived experience of the Army in the first verse and chorus of “Heaven knows I’m miserable now”?
If I could double like this then I would, but I can’t so I’ll just say that this is a great point. As said by an anthropromorphised ape, far smarter than I…”apes together strong”!

I think it is very important to repost this and remember that these people have left the Armed Forces. They no longer represent the people that their (retired) rank supposes they have command over. They have no power at all in this. Just remember that and pity them.

Overheard in Andover today: “I wish I was in the RIFLES…I’d just be so ignorant of all the problems. I could just walk around all day, not worrying and knowing I was going to make 4-star”

Great article for flaws with the RANGER Regt experiment thus far. Using purely Infantry performance metrics for a “Hybrid Warfare” Unit - section on performance at Brecon. An obsession with aesthetics - section on new rifles and crye. We took Spec Inf and painted it grey!!

Pay as you dine Housing Recruitment Retention Budget black hole(s) Procurement Mental health crisis I know it’s frustrating banging the same drum(s), but please can we avoid making up problems. We got beards. We got a medal. Let’s concentrate on the real stuff now.
Uniforms change. After just over 100 years of the Beret, is it time to leave it to just No2’s only and bring in the Cap for working dress / PCS?
The day after the British Army allows beards? Says it all. Our allies confidence in us is shattered.
BREAKING: Estonian PM @kajakallas is withdrawing her candidacy for becoming the next NATO Secretary General. It’s now almost certain that Dutch PM Mark Rutte will be elected instead. Kallas was viewed as “too Eastern” & “too hawkish on Russia” Rutte is “more predictable”
One of the earliest Victoria Cross recipients was Brevet Major Robert Lindsay for actions on 20 Sept 1854 He met the highest standards of the British Army and did this while having a beard How about those suggesting beards go against tradition embrace the bits they don't like
I rooted for beards in regs because the reasons against were phony (no operational drawbacks) and because of historical traditions (Victorian peak power). But follicles have nothing to do with ethos, discipline and accountability : we have no use for warriors in our armies.

Bring privateers back. Commerce raiders. I'd pick an old Cypriot medium cargo. Keep the rusty junk look. Refurbish it with a destroyer's full sensor suite, hide a f****ton of ASMs in container mock ups, torpedo tubes at the bow, mines at the stern and a letter of marque.
🚨New report by @OSIA_RUSI and @FT reveals that North Korean tankers have begun loading oil from a Russian port in the country’s Far East, lifting the veil on what Pyongyang has secured in return for the transfer of munitions and missiles. Learn more below.rusi.org/explore-our-re…

I have been aghast at the pace and tempo of a Field Army that is not running significant operational commitments. The pace has simply been unsustainable. The Senior Leadership approach of “run it hot to prove value for money” is actually “run it down over our career span”
If you run people at 100% they have nowhere left to go when it kicks off. They burn out, leave or slide down a slippery slope of mental and physical health decline.
My current stage of training is eat, run, eat, cry, sleep. Dreams include; being the last person on the course and the sweeper bus being a combine harvester with sharp blades coming to get me. What have I done 😫😭

There’s a 1000 people in the 4 x Ranger Battalions. Incredible that they need 4 x fully staffed battalion HQs for such tiny units. If they were logisticians 3 of those HQs would have been deleted.
Does the nearly 700 Ranger deployments include; recces, planning conferences, liaison visits, OTXs and other activities conducted by 1s and 2s?
@nicholadrummond Why would any of them brought back. Just raise 2nd & 3rd RRF, 3rd R Anglians, 2nd RW, 5th RRS, 2nd Mercian, 2nd CG, SG and GG, 2nd RIR, 3rd Yorkshire ... After all all these existed at some time and old regiments could keep their traditions though one of those.
I don't really know what's happening with the royals right now, and honestly, it's the least of my concerns and none of my business. But the PR team ? The PR team needs to get sacked.
