[*]How to say "I surrender" in Persian, Arabic, Pastun and other languages from the Gulf and the Near East.[*]How to unfurl a white flag within two seconds. [*]How to blame everything on the female driver of the boat. [*]Congenial and affable television presentation skills for those all so important video clips of you pointing out that you [i]oh so were[/i] in Iranian waters. [*]Handy hints and tips on how to write your stirring ready-for-serialisation-in-the-daily-mail diary and how to sell it on the market post-kidnap for lots of money! [/list]Yes, they may teach you how to blow stuff up in the US Army, how to kill everyone in the Parachute Regiment, how to be amazing in the SAS and how to drive around in circles in the Aussie SAS, but in the Royal Marine Commando, they teach you how to MAKE MONEY! I can see England will be fully prepared for the Rugby World Cup now....<strike>[SIZE=1]we're doomed.[/SIZE]</strike> [/QUOTE]
