The 22 SAS regiment is organized into four squadrons, each squadron consisting of four 16-man troops. Each troop specializes in either mountaineering, parachuting, amphibious operations, or mobility operations using vehicles and heavy weapons.
My wife’s nephew has has been on the selection course and he said it’s nightmare. People from all the regiments get chosen if they standout but very few get into the regiment.

I have been told by a relative that my dad was in the Special Boat Services during the war, when trying to find out about his war service I was informed there were no records of him have served in the Navy either Royal or Merchant. I have since found his Continuous Certificate of Discharge, which details the ships and time periods that he was aboard the ship, this record shows that he served on both Royal Navy and Merchant Navy ships (One of the "Merchant Navy" ships boarded and took an Italian tanker "prisoner"). There is also a break of just over the year of 1942 where his records have been left blank, but I know that he served the whole of the war.
Although he looked as if there was nothing of him, he could be lethal if need be..............I remember when he was about 61 or 2 seeing him hospitalise 3 big muscular navvies probably in their 30's that thought they were going to give a skinny old git a kicking, in a space of seconds.

A 1 Carat Diamond simply refers to the weight of the diamond. 1 Carat equals 200 milligrams, or 0.2 grams.
A karat is a measurement indicating the proportion of gold in an alloy out of 24 parts, so 18K gold is 18/24 parts gold. However, the use of carat (in place of karat) to indicate the fineness of gold is also considered acceptable.

In the United States, the modern definition of alcohol proof is twice the percentage of ABV. Alcohol Proof Example: An alcoholic beverage that is 40% ethyl alcohol by volume is referred to as being '80 proof'. 100-proof whiskey is 50% alcohol by volume. ... Pure alcohol or absolute alcohol is 200 proof.
