A guy who worked for the UK element of GOR wasn't paid for work he carried out and was massively out of pocket. A couple of other companies that have worked with them do not rate them either.

I was referring to the British Aid worker that was killed in Afghanistan mate.

I don't think anyone is talking about not carrying out rescue operations. I think a lot of people are saying that if you take hostages then you will be punished heavily rather than just letting them get away with it and handing over money. If you use a heavy hand every time then people will...

Fair Point...

Well we all know that the Americans may need to go back to the drawing board with their hostage rescues. For example using frag grenades in a room with hostages in is probably not recommended as they are omnidirectional.

Well if you have access to the website please enlighten us as I have passed Black Serpent and have never had to complete the patrols medic course. Maybe you are getting confused with the badged lads who have to do the Patrol Medics course as part of their continuation training? Then they are...

Can you tell me what 4 courses these are then??? To work with UKSF you are required to be CMT 1 only. You will carry out the BATLS course on Black Serpent irrespective if you have it already or not and you must pass to a high standard. HUET is part of the continuation training and is not...

Why didn't you just back off, return to your office and call the Police? If it was just me I wouldn't have even attempted anything. What would you have done if he fell over as you grabbed the knife and it stabbed him? I think you might have found yourself in court. What would you have done if...

The search button on here will answer all your questions mate. This subject has been covered a hundred times. Good luck with everything.

I was having a look at the Ronin SA website and it looks like they are not to happy with Ronin Concepts as they feel they have ripped off their name. Surely if Ronin Concepts ensure that they advertise as Ronin Concepts and make no attempt to pass themselves off as Ronin SA where is the...

Black Serpent is a course run by Medical Support Wing (MSW) or Medical Support Unit (MSU) to identify medics for potential employment within the Special Forces (SF) community. The course is run over two weeks which involves testing a Class 1 Medics Battlefield Advanced Trauma Life Support...

What a C**K!

Tier systems are used in many jobs and I am sure it didn't come about because someone thought it was ally. If you want to distinguish between levels then the use of tier seems appropriate.

The Tier system for medics is being thrown around more due to the Oil companies in Iraq and because of their Health & Safety rules. Shell state that within each callsign or team there must be at least one Tier 2 Medic (Offshore/Paramedic). One thing I have noticed is that a lot of these...

Courses to administer medical gases are only open to medically registered professionals. Your friend will find himself in big trouble if he administers any medical gas and causes harm. Macca I also hope he doesn't point his finger at you when he f**ks up as your HPC registered and that can...

Have you ever handled firearms before? If not then it might be worth an OPO who is already a firearms officer giving you a bit of training before hand. The reason I say this is because some people fall behind on firearms courses who have never touched them because they are scared of them or just...

And do you think selection is any easier in UKSF(R) than regular SF? The training is still very demanding. Why not go for UKSF whilst your serving?

Must already be a registered health care professional (nurse, paramedic, ODP) or former military medic (Class 1). Most companies expect you to have Advanced Life Support (ALS), Pre-Hospital Trauma Life Support (PHTLS) and Offshore medic to work on rigs or in remote locations.

Good news: On the 11 February in the early hours two IED/EFP insurgent operators blew themselves up with their own device whilst trying to plant it on route Topeka in Southern Iraq.
