    BMQ Regular Force 2005 - 2017 [Merged]

    Yes I've heard the infantry have it given to them. I know there's a reason for it... Well, most of it. Lol It is what it is. And I'd prefer be trained to the max rather than have a more relaxed environment so if we were ever deployed, we'd know we were capable of handling some tough times. I...
