22 years in the RAMC as a combat medical technician followed by 13 years to date in the MPGS. I was extended beyond my 55th birthday this year due to manning shortages but am now seriously considering* my options as it’s not quite the same as the good old days, I won’t go there ha ha!Black Knight wrote:Welcome.

I am a British Soldier with 36 years service, 4 to go, yep that makes me old as heck!
My modelling experience is RC aircraft for 30 years and boat building for the past 4. Just to ring the changes I have dabbled with 1 or 2 of the cheaper tanks but am now about to start a Tiger 1 full option eBay bargain. Seems to be a wealth of info on here but I am sure I will have a few questions of my own which I’m sure your guys with the expertise will no doubt help.

BZ mate. Plenty of time served. I count my youth as an Army Officer's brat being dragged around the UK from one posting to the next as "Boys Service"
Consequently, when it was my time to join up I became a Bootneck just to piss my Dad off! Spent plenty of years playing around the world before leaving to explore other avenues and I now teach Uniformed Public Services at a local college 
Always on the search for Bootneck-proof kit
