Same here ,,proud of them all,,
By feck could I wind my mate up,,,just by telling him para were tougher than marines ,,he would bite straight away ,,,with comments like,,,,well our regiment never lost a man,,in the hole of the Irish troubles,,,not like para..
It was always interesting listening to his story's though,,,I remember him telling me,,,if they had to go from A to B,,,over some countryside,,,they would find the hardest rout,,,cos you could guarantee the IRA had boobytraped other things like footpaths or styles,,ect
