I hope she wasn't the most attractive girl in Bastion, but I suspect she might have been!

No she isn't. This Engr Sqn came through the trg package that I taught on. There were some nicer looking females than her. And a fair few of them as well.
Spirits in Bastion are high due to the "easy" nature of life, compared with living outside the wire. But it's still not the easiest of living. 110 D250 SE HT 110 USW SOLD RRE HSE Dynamic Gone, wife killed it VOLVO XC60 R Dynamic with some toys Polaris RZR 900XP SOLD |

My point exactly They are the lot I was attached to for last Afghan stint and other than the Talisman group the rest spent the majority of their time sunning it up in Bastion or Sh!tcat.
They were also the group who got a LASM fired at their CRARRV........ At the time they were parked in the vehicle park and the missile came from the next compound alond where one of the Sqns were practising drills with a live launcher  Lucky for the Reccy mechs that the warhead hadn't enough time to arm 
I enjoyed my time attached to 35 Armoured Engineers, but massively tainted whilst attached to 21 'Billy Smarts' Engineers.
I have done my time and thanks to spending more than 600 days away on deployment or preparing for deployment in a 3 year period they gave me a posting I wanted (Then 9 months later made me redundant). What a last 2 years I have had though 
At least they are putting their spare time to a good cause- I have donated- make sure all you do too!! OH, and Higgers........ You will get your own back in 8 months time by calling me a STAB, lol (unless something better comes along). Glyn
...........on a side note- I used to dread going back to Bastion more than heading out on the ground- Insurgents don't care if you have long sideburns or not- they just let you do your job |

I am not even on the border (even though I have crossed it several times)..... I am tucked up in Akrotiri- Good for meeting up with mates who are travelling through though- nothing better than a friend smuggling a bottle of port to you when you are stuck here for the night
I can't understand families here though, all they do is complain about the place- but most of them don't go more than 10km from the camp. It is slightly more expensive but got paid extra to cover it. Some people are never happy
