Are YOU a serving soldier using this site? See here:

https://www.armynet.mod.uk/club/pages/menu/

for a warning on social networking and its potential impact on your security. It isn't saying dont use Facebook but it is warning you to take responsibility for your own security. If I can see into your profile, so can Terry Taliban. (due to poor Facebook security one soldier from 24 Bty had an interesting interview with his BK following his profile being open and allowing people to see that he was a fan of groups that were incompatible with service life!)

Food for thought with the rise of VBS2 and current simulation within the Artillery.

Research has shown that action video game fans are better at making quick, accurate decisions than non-gamers.
