Volunteers wanted from the South Staffordshire regiment for hazzardous duties in Sicilly.
Any takers?
Oh and write a will before you leave chaps.
That is to say PBI will be attending op Huskey as 2nd battalion South Staffords, if you're not a PBI member but would like to join us on this one then we'll happily help you get your kit squared away.
For those that dont know 'Sicily' is one of the South Staffords most famous battle honours after Arnhem... as the poorly trained and inexperienced US glider pilots and tug pilots released the allied glider force *miles* away from the target next to non of the airborne forces made it onto the island.
Except the South Staffords... in particular 15 platoon who held their objective Ponte Grande bridge for *days* against company and battlalion sized axis attacks.
So anyone fancy joining the PBI for this one?

Bookings will be opened in due course, as usual we will be taking money with bookings so don't want to be doing it too early - August is a way off yet.

Can you go for a Glider-Rover 😀 , bit like a Heli-Bedford but more South Staffs oriented
I'm in.
We could get a horse box trailer thing and dress it up a bit and tow it at high speed before stopping and dropping the ramp for the full on realism...
Er only j oking, Guy is bound to unhitch it for a laugh...
