CHARITABLE ADVERTISING on Web Site There are many worthwhile charitable causes in existence, but we can only accept sponsorship or fundraising efforts on Fusilier Association websites, that specifically support approved Fusilier charities. This essentially means that it is acceptable to use these pages to seek sponsorship for The Fusiliers Aid Society (which includes Fallen Fusiliers), and The Fusilier Memorial fund only. We now have our own dedicated justgiving site (http://www.justgiving.com/fusiliersaidsociety), which you can use to help raise money for your cause. If you let RHQ (Asst Regt Sec) know the specific cause you are raising money for, it will be directed to the correct fund. Messages soliciting sponsorship for causes or charities other than the Fusilier ones mentioned above should not be placed on the message board and may be removed by the Webmaster.

Kabul AFG in APRIL 2004(I served 5 Years & then Deployed to Liberia for that War then Siera Leone etc etc; as a Logistics Officer & as a UN.Military Contingent Inspector for AFG+Libera+Siera Leone.For these Missions I was LOGGO cum WeaponsInspector for these countries Disarmement Programs For South Sudan I was moved as a LOGGO but the Weapons & Ammo job was vacant.
A post I had just moved from for the Disarmement Program ie;U.N.Weapons & Ammo Inspector. I,ve got my various Army Quals on a USB and was able to supply details of Breacon & Hereford. My past bosses supported me that I knew my way around Russian & Chinese & US Infantry Weapons including Anti Tank stuff, the only UK stuff ever used by Foreign Armies is:
Bren-Sten-3inch-2inchMor-36milsGRN + SLR. All African Armies use AK47 & 64
+RPGs+the good old SLR, simply because the like their Enemies to look like a TeaBag when they've finished with them.
Yes local Army Lads still the same 7 foot tall wearing BDs and Premier Leage Football Shirts & Hobnail Boots (UK Army & Navy issue).
And Maurice yes, if they ever got to Scandinavia they would only have to show their "Middle Wicket" and they'd have a job for Life.
