No, not at all.

Do you have a "favorite" weapon that you've used, or have one you want to use?

Would have to be the M203 grenade launcher.

What was going through bootcamp like? Was it dreadful or were you fully prepared for the journey?

Bootcamp was different, and definitely not what I had expected. I was NOT prepared for the journey. I was extremely out of shape, and almost failed my physical requirements for the army. Drill Sergeants made sure I passed though and I was happy to have had the ones that I did.

RedWood wrote Whos better SAS or marines?

I'd put my vote on the Marines

Fumble wrote What was the most interesting activity you had to do in boot camp?

FTX, field training excersize. We spent 5 days out in the wilderness with nothing but custom made "houses". It was awesome.

Thank you for all you do! No words can describe what you do for the United States of America! The people you do for that do not even know who you are. And no one really sees all you do to keep us safe.

Awesome giveaway Snow.
And I thank you for serving our beautiful country and fighting for our freedom.



I have one question which might seem idiotic to some but I've never received an answer.

On your uniform, the American flag patch seems to be either backwards or upside down (sorry I can't remember the positioning.)

So my question to you, Snow is this:

What is the significance of the patches position?

SAS highly regarded as one of the greatest special force units in the world. Better comparison would SAS and navy seals. Marines can't hold a candle to the SAS, much like they can't hold a candle to the Seals.

Civilians often wonder why the US Army Flag Patch is reversed. The answer is: not all Army Flag Patches are reversed, but only those worn on the right shoulder. The reason has to do with proper display of the flag.

The blue field of stars should always be in the highest position of honor. When viewing the flag on a wall, the highest position of honor is the upper left when displayed horizontally, and at the top (upper left) when displayed vertically. When displayed on a "moving object" like a person or vehicle, the highest position of honor is the front, and not the rear; so the field of blue should be displayed to the front.

For flag patches worn on uniforms, the same principle applies: the blue star field always faces towards the front, with the red and white stripes behind. Think of the flag, not as a patch, but as a loose flag attached to the Soldier's arm like a flag pole. As the Soldier moves forward, the red and white stripes will flow to the back.


+100 Reputation Points for having a good question.
