    JNCO Drafters

    That much discussed prospect, it appears, is finally coming true. Manning currently advertising for 4x JNCO Career Managers, presumably as a trial, to career manage Cpl's and OR's. Does this mean us lowlife will get to phone Manning directly again?! Furthermore, is this is a good or bad move...

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-29474422 Top Gear presenters have left Argentina after protests about their use of a car with a Falklands War-related numberplate. Bet they wouldn't have complained if it referred to the May revolution or the Andes crossing!

    Rewriting History Again

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-29341361 Apparently this art show is 'racist' and 'offensive' and, further down the page, all sorts of bull**** bingo sentences. It's not a history to be proud of... but surely it's history? What do we think?

    Blair on ISIS - "Don't rule out ground troops."

    As if Tony hasn't had enough wars, now this. Is he right in his comments, though, that ISIS can only realistically be stopped by ground forces? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-29305840

    RAF Funeral

    'Lo all. Please can you take a look at this thread on ARRSE (http://www.arrse.co.uk/royal-air-force/210248-funeral-help-wanted-death-raf-veteran-no-family-friends-3.html) as it details the funeral of a RAF veteran who appears to have no-one going to his funeral.
