The Official ARRSE Guide to the British Army by Major Des Astor
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 6.07MB
Overview: Drawn from the wit and wisdom of Britain’s biggest and most active military website – www.arrse.co.uk – this is the up-to-the minute, irreverent (but extremely informative) insider’s guide to the British Army today.
Guaranteed coarse, scatological and offensive, the Army Rumour Service (www.arrse.co.uk) is the British Army’s online meeting place for chat, bullshit, whinging and schimpfing*.Read by everyone in Britain’s defence community from the Secretary of State downwards, Arrse is where you will find the inside view from Britain’s soldiers.
Now you too can join in the fun with Arrse’s very own easily digestible, profusely illustrated, highly absorbent guide to the British Army. Compiled and edited by one of the most extensively passed-over officers in British military history, The Official Arrse Guide is a unique inside view of what the British Army really is and how it really works.
As well as comprehensive information about the regiments and corps, their weapons and equipment, where they live and work, who joins and how they get in, this book tells you how to:
Get that crucial ‘ally’ look
Make your own wank sock
Mock the RAF
Walt with Giants
Escape the ‘Leprechaun of Death’
