GOP, why don't you come join us uneducated, arrogant yank thugs in the armed forces? While we may not have 95% success, we are trigger happy yokels that have a hell of a time blowing stuff up and killing women and children. You have to accept it, the brits and commonwealth are a special breed. They are a superior culture with superior morals, who understand foreign cultures better than anyone else.
 
 I joined the US military, and with my poor training and my super high tech equipment, I am singlehandedly responsible for the world's problems. It's too bad their superior ways haven't rubbed off on us, but we're too busy drowning children to notice.

I would give anything for the chance to join the uneducated yankee thug military. I mean, even if we fail most of the time, like you say we still get to blow stuff up and kill civilians.
In all seriousness, there might be a chance for me yet. I went to my Doc yesterday, and my anxiety and heart issues are getting much better. Example: Last year I was on 50mg of Toprol (for anxiety and to kill adrenaline), this last checkup he took me down to 25mg. He said at age 18 your body will change alot in relation to my medical issues, and he forsees me being completely off meds by that time (in 10 months). Of course, my heart rate is low (due to conditioning), my blood pressure is perfect, etc. So, a waiver is very possible now if I'm off meds. I'm very excited, but I'm also realistic. If everything continues to improve then after college I'm going to try my luck at enlisting. If it doesn't work out, then I still have options in law enforcement. So needless to say I am very excited.
 
Although at this point, I'm not sure what branch I'd join. My goals have changed slightly, and I'm not sure if NSW is exactly where I want to be. There are so many great options in the military, so I'm keeping my options open at this point.

i must say, this has been quite entertaining, all these cherades and the such, i don't think i'll watch 'enders' or corrie' anymore... i'll just come on 'ere and read the best soap opera script of my life,
fudge i'm in the wrong line of work... i should make a tv show along the lines of these message boards
sort of soldier soldier meets brookside meets harry enfield
(though i'm not sure robson or gerome will play SAS sergeant fred (who's not really in the sas, he's sbs, but then alas, it turns out e's a bloody prat and is really only thirteen, but might go to the para's....... next year))

 yet when an Amrican opens his mouth, he gets a thrashing for saying something not nearly as nationalistic as an Australian, Candian, or a brit.


you or need to visit the australian boards more often - often or not, anyone demonstrating nationalistic dribble will be shut down locally.

its seems to me that you have a greater issue about the commonwealth than some of the commonwealth has about americans....  , personally, when I quote on any australian military actions I will invariably use non australian sources so as to avoid parochialism or jingoistic claptrap. 

we hook into the poms, kiwis and canucks just as much as we hook into americans- in fact if you visit the australian boards you'll see that we hook into ourselves more than anything or any other country.  anyone who starts to take themselves too seriously steps into wanker territory.

what gets my gander more than anything is anyone trivialising another countries effort -and thats a common vehicle of debate in here that is not just the special province of some americans.

Some really stupid comments , Navy SEALS and SAS have different tasks and roles , they can not compare to each other , its like comparing APC vs MBT..

I respect the navy seals and i think they do a great job at what they do which is maritime operations.Whereas the sas operates with four troops, the air troop,boat troop,mountain troop and mobility troop.Im not saying their better or tougher but can do a lot more operation wise.
