bigsouth1981 0 Posted August 10, 2005 Ok mods, I know that this is a little off topic but since you lock a lot of the threads that could generate posts for hours (Im not having a dig by the way), I should imagine that very soon we will run out of things to talk about other than things we would like to see in the game (which will most likley be seen as "suggestions" thus the thread will be locked) That said, Id like to know if there are any other Army lads on here ?, where are you from?, who are you currently serving with, or any ex squaddies who have a tale to tell? Just thought it would liven the place up, thats all Ps: If you are going to suggest I move my thread to an off topic catagory, Id like you to know that I asked it in here because you all seem like a good bunch of "Flashmen" Regards.......Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_shadow 0 Posted August 10, 2005 Aye! Swedish "Home Guard" (Local defence) units.. could say we are a rapid reaction force when it comes to disasters in the local area.. such as forest fires, floodings, when ppl gets lost in the forests or threats against important installationsnd similar duties. in wartime we acts as a guard units that guard important installations such as powerplants, harbours, airfilds and similar duties.. we can also act as a light infantry unit.
