I am going to be a hostage for the SAS

adscan · 25 Mar 2007 at 13:07

next month i am going to be used in a training exercise for the SAS where i will be a hostage. All i have been told is that it is going to be at an RAF base and probably something to do with a plane.
should be interesting but i have been told to expect to be thrown around and some bruising.

Are they practising for when they go and rescue our marines in Iran?

Strap some sausages to your chest and announce "I... have a bomb!" to spice the exercise up a bit

And more to the point are you allowed to tell us ahead of schedule ?

That was my first thought actually.

Are you writing this message from your Iranian prison cell?

Master these phrases:

"Ok I'll follow you"

"Let's get going"

"You lead the way"

and

"ARGHH!!!"

You were probably only told that because they thought you were a numpty and would brag about it on the internet.

even back when i was an ATC cadet we were told to be very quiet about dates and places we would be going to, so id be very surprised if you were even aloud to tell us what you already have and if your a civi i call BS

If I was in the SAS I would expect to train with civilians in hostage rescue situations to give it more authenticity and realism.
