[GZG] Everyone's got a piece of the action

["Christopher Downes-Ward" <c.downes-ward@xxxxxxxxx>]

And the final message from the old draft's folder...

Having been using the RAF Regiment (see older posts about "Rock Apes") put me in mind of a random thought I had a while a go. It seems as if it is a natural inclination of an armed force to gather some aspects of the other services. (All examples are British circa 1985).

RAF
 Mainly aircraft but:
 RAF Regiment - Ground forces, trained for airfield defence.
 Air Sea rescue and Target towing launches - Light naval forces

Army
 Mainly ground forces but:
 Army Air Corps - Light helicopters and fixed wing airborne AOP's.
 Royal Corps of Transport (20 Maritime Regiment) - Sea going specialist supply ships (ammunition carrier HMAV St George, and a couple of large tank landing ships HMAV Ardennes, HMAV Arakan)

Navy
 Sea power but:
 Fleet Air Arm - sea based airpower
 Royal Marines - Ground Forces

So how to apply this to GZG games and does anyone care?
