Not sure if he has been here long enough to get the "Cape Buffalo" reference ( ).





Rog, I warned you........just let it go. Walk away from the forum for a few days and cool down. Then come back and drop this subject.

I give the rog and k9kiwi some credit, they read the first couple of lines on the official RAF Regt site...

The RAF Regiment do quite a bit more than stand there holding a rifle and guarding a gate. History snippets - The RAF Regt. were created during World War II but their history could go back to the 1920s. Their first jobs were to simply defend airfields but soon became aggressive as the war turned against the Axis.

The RAF Regt. landed in Italy with the first waves, they fought at Monte Cassino (massive airfield on a FREAKIN' moutain to defend, eh?!). In NW Europe, they landed soon after D-Day to occupy, repair and defend the first airfields. They then moved off infront of the British Army to capture and hold airfields - they were the first units into Denmark and one of the first into Paris.

In Burma the RAF Regt. were formed into a parachute squadron where they were tasked with seizing airfields ahead of the 14th Army. They also took part in the battles around Imphal.

The RAF Regt. has served in every conflict Britain has taken part in since World War II - their aggressive role has them moving off ahead of the army to seize airfields before their arrival, and defend them once they have passed. The RAF Regt. throughout its history has been equipped with every weapon in the British arsenal except MBTs and aircraft. Today they perform much the same tasks of patrol, escort, airfield capture and air asset defence (not always an airfield). The RAF Regt. have been the first people there many times, parachuting in to clear the area before the army put their boots anywhere near.

Their most recent assignments have been Iraq and Afghanistan (obviously) which have seen them on patrol all over both countries. Many RAF Regt. also serve in the SAS ... and the RAF Regt. have served alongside the SAS.

So much for standing there with a rifle being a gate guard.

Now, you have two options -

Commando - Royal Marine
Or com·man·do –noun, plural -dos, -does.

a member of a military assault unit or team trained to operate quickly and aggressively in especially urgent, threatening situations, as against terrorists holding hostages.

And K9kiwi, yes, I am a twat and it's great.
