um.... The fight appears to have been "directed" by two non-commissioned officers. One was dressed in a surgeon's outfit, the other dressed as a schoolgirl. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4475034.stm
You haven't lived till you have done naked PT on the Yorkshire moors in late January. I don't know if it made a man out of me but it nearly made a girl out off me. BRRRRRRRRRR.
This confirms the link between the Royal Marines and the Roman Gladiators. We now have clear evidence that the Royal Marines are carrying on the proud traditions of Pankration. That saved me a ton of research.
I'm starting to think that all science text books have typos... where it states carbon is the basic building block of the universe... it's actually meant to read that Roman Gladiators are the basic building block of the universe.
Marines, bored, drunk ..... what else do people expect but fighting, rows, and nudity?! Granted the NCO's behaviour was well outta line, but there is a certain amount of idiots to be expected
And after all if they couldn't handle a bit of nudity, violence and mayhem in the good old outdoors... then how in the hell would you expect them to be a successful marine corp.?!
Yep and I bet they're defending the god given right of every red blooded male to dress as a nurse or a schoolgirl!
http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/story_pages/news/news1.shtml There's also a video. Bear in mind the New of the World is the most unbelievable newspaper in the country. But of course there is video evidence for what some of the whistleblower claims.
Why all the surprise? It's just the officers giving their men a taste of what they learned in their English public school education.
Wonder why the surgeon guy kicked the naked in the head? It really puzzles me why people want to join the army!
These were the marines. All the Army do for initiation is wipe their **** cracks over your nose. Apparently.
Now some of you have real good questions to ask those friendly army recruiters next time they come to your school!
All sorts of comments and old jokes come to mind. Every single one of them is against the TOS :cry: So I'll just give the punchline to one of my favorites:
Do you think they woke up the next day with a massive hangover and think; "Oh crap we didn't really fight naked with big tubes on our arms refereed by NCO's dressed as surgeons and schoolgirls did we? I'm glad nobody saw us..."
Oh yes, drink would definitely be involved. It's just unit initiation and has been going on forever. Christ, if the civvies only knew the half of it. Adouglasmhor and Taff, you sound like ex-bootnecks.......is this the case ?
