If you ever wondered what serving and former soldiers of the British Army, and other UK Armed forces, really think about the military, defence and current affairs this is your chance to find out...
This, unofficial, website has thousands of serving and former British soldiers, sailors marines and airmen, giving their views on defence and other issues. There is also a good deal of information on historical events, books, etc.
Be warned it is not at all PC and they do not always suffer fools gladly. Also they take operational security very seriously...
