Language skills are not an unimportant attribute - and the increasing opportunity and requirement to communicate on the internet emphasizes the need to be able to express oneself clearly and concisely, developing logical arguments in open debate and be able not only to understand others, but to make oneself understood.
And none who follow basic principles of good language usage will be diminished for it.
The way you write may not be indicative of how smart and capable you really are, but
it is indicative of how smart people are going to think you are.
Now onto this little gem...

George im talking infantry hear, as i said in the first post of this topic you would have to add in the armour, artillery,etc. How can they earn honours in modern times. Do you actually beleive theres going to be a war where we have to mobilize our military. Even if theres a WW3 our gov't would probably send a brigade only.
If we replaced the 2nd and 3rd battalions with regiments then they could earn houners in afghanistan, or somewhere eles, instead of sayiung we sent 5 soldiers to the war on terror. 48 regulator, the people in the actual reserve regiment wouldnt be the men making up the regular force battalion. One of the renamed battalions men would. Those who are loyal to the 48 highlanders would go regular to. The only question is would the men want to be rebadged to a new regiment.

# recommending and staffing policy to preserve military operational honours for succeeding generations through perpetuations
They also take care of getting new honours recommended if warranted.

With that, your welcome on this privately owned site is getting tenable at best.
You have consistently insulted past and present members by not either spelling Regimental titles correctly, nor by even know the basics of their individual Regimental histories.
You have been told to do some minor research which would have educated you to not only the proper titles, but would have lent some credibility to your own perspective on the topic at hand.
With that you have been constantly spamming the site trying to get your voice heard.....congratulations, it has.
You are wasting bandwidth on this site which you have been warned about time and time again, by not only members who are trying to help you, but also the D.S.
Administrative Burden comes to mind.
