British Military Current Events

[Halifax Tar]

You'd be surprised how many postal techs have impressive collections of medals, based on being a small trade in high demand for deployment.

I made a set of ribbons for a postie waaaaay back in the day when we still did cash sales.

4 rows of 3 and and double on top. To this day its the most I have ever seen in person. And this was back in the early oughts.

I imagine he must have needed to some ballast in his tunic.

Veterans aged 65 told to prepare for war

The Government is set to increase the age at which the nation’s pool of retired soldiers, known as the strategic reserve, can be called upon from 55 to 65.

The new measures are being introduced as part of a new Armed Forces bill, which will be published in Parliament later.

The changes will make it easier to mobilise tens of thousands of former military personnel.

The Army has shrunk to its smallest number in more than 200 years, with just over 70,000 full-time, fully-trained troops ready to deploy to the frontline.

Under existing rules, the pool of retired soldiers can be called upon in the event of “national danger, great emergency or attack in the UK”.

However, under the new changes, this will be lowered to “warlike preparations”, which is already the threshold for reservists who have recently left the Armed Forces.

The measures come amid fears Britain could be dragged into a full-scale war with Russia in a matter of years.

Defence and security chiefs have repeatedly warned of the potential for large-scale war in recent months.

They may have to deploy to quell the assholes the UK have allowed in.
