With the signal squadron colours and winged dagger??
Been after one for years ?

Just goes to show that TZUK hasn't changed with time. Back bitting was an original feature!
Cant see any back biting in that one?Originally Posted by Integrale
I was trying to be helpful actually. The original thread had quite a lot of detail. If you can’t be constructive yourself, jog on

You mean 264 Signals squadron?
So far as I know, there is no special air service unit with the designation 264 and there never has been.
Referring to 264 as an SAS unit is misleading.
The correct designation is 264 (SAS) Signal Squadron

Dobssie, did you pass winter or summer selection?
I take it you served with the regiment?

And - what colour is the boathouse at Hereford?
If you were a member of that Sqn try asking one of the lads at the reunion

Someone told me today he couldn’t tell me who he served with nudge,nudge, wink,wink.
He Just kept giving me hints then saying he couldn’t say any more,he couldn’t or wouldn’t give me his service no.
Then he said it was a unit with numbers and letters if I got his drift,what the 12th regiment of foot ffs.
If he was ex SAS why the hell couldnt he tell me?
Because he's a sad bluffer?
He's saving the story for his book deal.
Apparently, there has been 463,298 serving members of the SAS.
Wasn't like that when I was in...
I was in the LRDG, before the SAS got popular and sold out! ;)
I used to fence with a bloke who said he was a cook in the army, so I reckon he's the only SF bloke I've ever met!

Breitling Cosmonaute 809 - What's not to like?

Slop Jockey - Hardest course to pass in the Army, no one has managed it
No I didn’t but neither did 264 sigs and that doesn’t stop them claiming to be sas!
So a signals bloke (of all people) uses a parachute regiment term to insult someone for not having done something that they themselves have not done......Hat.
Considering that the term "hat" refers to someone who wears a peaked cap on parade rather than having earned the right to wear a beret of certain colours, it's inaccurately directed anyway.
All in all, a pretty unsuccessful post.
Hat.

I must be one of the few on here who was actually at Sennybridge during summer selection.
I was in the Army Cadets though, we happened to be having our summer camp at the same time as selection :-)
ha ha quality..
Dropping in words that some of us who served will know to show that you know, doesn’t impress.
Strong,how many years have you done or indeed how many jumps?

Yup!!
The Saturday and Sunday club
If this was a nod to Steven Seagal, you've just made my day.
Why not as the association or slack . Or ask at the union

There was no right to wear a beret or a cap badge when I wore the green suit. Everything seemed to be deemed a privilege!
The best squaddies were always the modest and unassuming ones.
Beat me to it
Surely if you wear a watch with the SAS wings on, that’s clearly a regular watch commissioned for said steely eyed dealers of radios, you might risk an awkward conversation?

Everyone’s ones elite or special forces these days.
Forces TV had a couple of RAF regiment chaps on an American military shoot em up challenge programme the other day.
Even they where referred to as special forces.
Personally it was the cooks and storemen I had most bother with, a ladle over the knuckles hurt like hell.
Coincidentally the same number as witnessed Ronnie Kray shoot George Cornell in the Blind Beggar.
True!
Astonishingly, that's the exact same number of people who claim to have seen the Sex Pistols at the Free Trade Hall, Manchester on the fourth of June, 1976.

Jim.
...and the same number of people who went to the first all nigher at the Wigan Casino
And the number of female AD staff one of our members has had knowledge of, each one also offering a discount.
And they were ALL on the balcony in ‘80!

Anybody remember the Joint Services Parachute Centre, Netheravon? Used to work there as a "civvie" in the early 70's. Used to get some *interesting" visitors now and again.
Corrected that for you
