Why are they so different? They sound equally stupid.

Actually it's not "end of". They've gone and changed the hoary old tradition, so you can kiss it goodbye. Now that's End Of.

Yes they are- and they've proved it by not being childish enough to cry about a silly old hat.

I musty state my contrarian position anyway: If someone's foolish enough to complain about not being let in, then he deserves to be in it. Same goes for gays in the army.

Not sure if that makes perfect sense, or none whatsoever.

If the army wouldn't have me because of some perceived limp-wristedness, then I'd be the first to celebrate that.

They may have formed part of the imperial forces through history but they weren't very trustworthy at times were they

Many were happy to swap allegiance at the drop of a hat

It was the Muslim divisions who showed loyalty during England's greatest hours of need and the price for that loyalty was Pakistan and a ticket to the Uk.
