@studmalexy I got a cat 1 at briefing and have my mainboard booked this September. I went to a comprehensive college, my parents earn under 30k a year and i'm not called Tarquin. The forces (officer's) are a lot different to what they were 50 years ago (demographics).
It works well for us. Remember this is the Guards. Traditions have to be upheld, its a source of strength in times of the highest test, combat. I have served with the canadians and they do things differently. I wouldn't say they do it right, but maybe it works. The Officer/Other rank relationship is very important and not to be taken lightly. I don't think we will be following the Canadian model. And i would not be so rude to call an allies officers "crass".
@studmalexy Shut up you mong! Anyone can become an officer, you just need the qualifications. You need a University degree and then need to do officer training at Sandhurst (if you want to join the Army), Dartmouth (if you want to join the Navy) and some other base not sure which if you want to join the Air Force!
@studmalexy Because you do. They're not going to have any old muppet commanding troops in battle are they? They need officers with brains who know what they're doing!
@nrjelley you dont need a degree to have brains...the two most intelligent men on the planet(Nikola Tesla and Edward Leedskalnin) didnt have degrees....and Steve Jobs and Bill Gates were university dropouts.
Tesla was a dropout, so was Einstein.
People with degrees are not necesserily smart, they are just good at repeating information that is fed to them. Thats not real intelligence.
some people have degrees in bullshit...easy degrees like sociology or something.
@nrjelley in order to be an officer...intelligence, determination..etc....are not the main priorities. The most important quality for being an officer is loyalty to the class system and to the Queen.
Ive been looking at these documentaries and they train for things like a peasant uprising...they want a class separation. They are loyal to the rich.
Can anyone tell me what the name of the Song the band is playing is at 42:30 to 43:00, the one where Conway said "It is a great march, despite it was composed by a Frenchman"
@jedmunds1000 you can be part of the HQ company - they are permenantly based at London but im not sure if they just stay there they might send the odd guy away.
do these fucking ignorant tourist not realise that these men are there to defend the queen,not a fucking tourist attraction,if you wanna take pictures,go see the london eye ffs
Who decided that the colour was'nt right ? and Who decided that it was ok to spend £2,000 per tunic to replace perfectly good ones. Taxpayers money ,spend,spend,spend mentality from every Government department, no wonder we're broke, so what happens now, taxpayers pay more taxes !
@adelaide102 Not really - £2000 is fuck all compared to how much we're in debt, and it's nothing to do with the majority of the country.. just fucking bankers. Blame them.

The Brit officers are crass. (JAPS-Chinese Parliament-etc)
Never get away with that behaviour in a Canadian officer.
Downsizing your military is an opportunity to become even more efficient as a fighting force. Take a page from your Commonwealth allies.

@nrjelley why do officers have weird names like "Torald"..hope thats how you spell it.
In the other documentaries all the officers had names like "Bjorn" and "Orlando".
I swear...you get to be an officer if you are of the right class...its not about physical or mental ability.
