Ah, I found a definitive source for the question - what is the UK?

Now, does this mean that if you live anywhere in the Commonwealth that you can serve in the UK Army? I remember a Grenadian soldier in the UK Army getting an award recently, so I suppose it's true.

So what ever happened to your Pathfinder guys that were attached to the Paras in the mid 90s, Did they ever get any funding or gear?

Yes, Ranger Horned Toad, they are now official!

I think it happened at the same time as 16 Air Assault Brigade were formed.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and her that sat on him was the wife, and Hell followed with her......

And I'll add, we should be united in a Brotherhood or our Armed Forces, which together keep us free.
