Welcome.

Cant think of enough words.... I’ll stop chewing this bone and try harder.
I don't hate the king refm’s that are the RMP it’s just my experience with them was always adversarial at best, for some reason they always seemed to assume us airborne were guilty, how stereotypical!

I had a couple of acquaintances from the paras, good lads. I didn't do shouty, I found talking to someone civilly like a human being did the trick.

Talking to someone works a lot better than being shouty

Most definitely, plus I was TA para before joining RMP.

So you were partial shouty then

I very rarely done shouty, too laid back, there's only one squaddie got verbal hairdryer and that was down in the Falklands when a drunken nomark was giving two RAFP colleagues the runaround.

The mighty 4 PARA?

Yep, A Coy, Grace Road, Walton.

Always toyed with applying for 4 Para and having a crack at P-Coy but tricky with my shifts to commit.

Can you be a cop & in the army reserve? Can’t imagine an already stretched police force would be too keen on the idea of letting staff go

There are civvy coppers in RMP reserve.

Money for old rope.

Do the RMP’s have authorirty over the navy & raf too?

Back in my day, we had reciprocal powers of arrest over the RN and RAF. Since the introduction of the Armed Forces Act 2006, all three service police organisations have the same powers of arrest. In fact, all now train together at the Tri Service Police training college.

Wonder why they don’t just merge all three police units?

It has been suggested many times.

Has everyone fell asleep?

Still asleep then?
