    Can just see it now on the field Para's - "Well its not our lot to do that " Marines - "Well we do boats planes scare us" only as a fo par guys but each service has its specialties obviously a bean counter has crunched the numbers.
    Cost cutting the armed services what a pack of horse $hite a country needs an at strength armed services to protect the nation interests no matter where.

    When you reduce that service you reduce the freedom why don't they thin out the bean counters and leave the soldiering to the soldiers as thats what they do for us.
    Sadly our armed services are constantly on the back foot having to scrimp to make do making do will not cut it when the $hit hits the fan because even as a militia John Howard has ensured we are as weak kneed as a Kangaroo without a tail.....!!!!
    Its frustrating as hell....

    As a question do bean counters get issued a weapon and told the enemy is in that direction go and sort them out! Just a question?
