stillchris: 44 Pathfinder Platoon is a specialised reconnaisance unit within 44 Parachute Regiment, trained to be deployed covertly ahead of the Paras, often behind enemy lines in small teams. Their tasks include intelligence gathering, marking out drop zones and helicopter landing sites for use by the Regiment. Selection into the Paras is already tough enough, but Paras wishing to join Pathfinder Platoon undergo an even more rigorous Selection. |

IbnSultaan: Love the COAS ; look @ him with helmet I haven't seing any COAS with helmet on the frontlines, he was ambushed on his way on Friday to the frontlines his not like other COAS that will fly in with choppers. His like George Patton and these little things goes a long to boost Bois morales and inconcate discipline on the way we carry out our duties on the fronts. |

MikeCZAR: ...... But @ Frumentius describes them as a specialised reconnaissance team, in the same mould as British Pathfinders. I don't no where your bland "Nope" is coming from. Do you not know what tasks they perform? |
