Wotcher chaps and lady chaps

I am an ex Royal Marine

As far as I know the only female marines in the Royal Marines are bandswomen.

They are not Commando trained, they just play an instrument. ie, saxaphone, trumpet, etc, etc.

The amount of times I was asked 'what instrument do you play' whilst serving does not bear thinking about. My normal answer was 7.62mm repeater!

That's me lot boys, see you anon

Aye steve evans

Hey how are you?
The I met marine men that played the bagpipes. I didn't see any women playing instuments. Must have been Irish?
