Just a bit Ginge . I know it´s the mindset ... do more than the other. However given that the language spoken is French, how do the Comms compare. signals ..etc.?No brainer: one is Legion, the other is not. I may be biased.
I can understand that. The Channel is not wide.During my time the Brits were very into Comms. The course used to be done by 2e REI (my regiment) until the new Castel got built. Nowadays, most operators will be Ruskie I presume.
Back in '03, we (3rd ACR) had a Puerto Rican National Guard unit attached to us--1st of the 296th, I think -- in Ramadi. They were okay to work with until they took contact; at which point they'd usually start speaking rapid, loud Spanish on company push (freq).(...)

Thank you Joseph . Apart from speaking French, what is the criterium for selection in the signals platoon? Is there inter company/Regiment training or when you learn an advanced course do you go to a central camp?I'll play Robin (no-one- and I mean NO ONE plays Batman).
