Most of that stuff can be found on the official website or Wikipedia.

As for things like Operation Haven just type it into google.

 

[jim87spencer]

the GPMG is used in 'sustained fire' (SF) mode. In SF mode, the GPMG, with a 2-man crew, lays down 750 rounds-per-minute at ranges up to 1800 meters.

UKSF, Paras and Royal Marines put the GPMG on their WMIK Land Rovers. The SAS have been known to have up to 3 GPMGs mounted on one vehicle. The 'beating zone' suppressed by multiple GPMGs is phenomenal.

Operation Haven was on the 17th April 1991 in Northern Iraq

The range of a GPMG in the light role is 800m

The royal marines are currently serving in Afghanistan.. not sure about anywhere else, i think bosnia and northern ireland.

Rank structure -
Marine
lance corporal
Corporal
Sergeant
Colour sergeant
Warrent officer class 2
Warrent officer class 1

 

[blocky]

GPMG is 800m in the light role and 1800 in the sustained role

Everyone keeps getting this one wrong. The Royal Marines are NOT CURRENTLY SERVING ANYWHERE OTHER THAN THE UK.

The Fleet protection is a slightly different matter but they are NOT IN AFGHANISTAN!

I spoke to my next door neighbour and he says he's not going until Jan? He went with 40 last time and has just been moved to 42, much to his annoyance *text deleted* he lives 30 mins from 40.

He is off sick at the mo due to an ass operation, maybe he's just missing a deployment, but he didn't mention one in sept and it's strange that there would be 2 so close together?

 

[Seedytucker]

maybe he's going late due to op? bthe rest of 3 cdo wilt be out there when he turns up wont they?

 

[Matt B]

Maybe thats the case, but then if its a 6 month tour, he's only *text deleted* catch the last 2 months.
