I reckon quite a few will go as some did to help fight ISIS

[Bobbisox1]

No offence SB but I really wish these posts would subside some, it’s scary times we are living in

[Stickybottle]

Feel free to ignore them then

Probably best if you stay out of the News section too ?

[Bobbisox1]

There’s plenty stuff in the news section that I’ll join with so don’t tell me to stay out of it !

[Mozz71]

It's one of the biggest news stories of this century, with the potential to be one of the biggest of all time. It's gonna be around for a long, long time I'm afraid Bobbs.

[Ken4155]

Come on, Bobs, you've started a few threads on the subject of Ukraine during the last few days.

[Bobbisox1]

I understand that Mozz and did say no offence to SB re my post , it was just my own opinion , that’s all

[Bobbisox1]

I’ve started one when the invasion started Ken, the other in CB of my worry about my two young friends in Belarus, perhaps SB is right, I best stay out of News !

[Stickybottle]

But storms are scary and I do not want to hear about them so often

[Mozz71]

Yup, and BS smells, but still AB seems to be full of it.

[Stickybottle]

‘Twas ever thus

[naomi24]

I think some will go to join the fight.

[Stickybottle]

Seems that some were already in situ before the invasion :

Whilst serving I spoke to Royal Marines who went to the Falklands and many said they had colleagues who left shortly after the conflict up become mercenaries in Africa or joined the French Foreign Legion in order to possibly see further action as they would not get such a chance elsewhere at the time
