Place of work have you.

It's actually done as a charity if you are not aware. Most tickets are given away but ask for a small donation. That money then goes to help soldiers charities. The actual 'tickets for troops' organisers simply ask people for tickets and they supply them. It's not a case of squaddies getting more freebies. Just a fantastic scheme set up by a charity. Knock it if you like, but it works well.

It would have been good today if there had been some vets and serving personnel,on the pitch when the minutes silence was held. Every member of the armed services deserve the utmost respect,whether they are professional,part-time or reservists. I'm glad we're out of Afghanistan now,so our service personnel are no longer wasting their time over there.

The tickets for troops is giving something to us as we have many who commit the ultimate sacrifice ensuring twats like you can write any old shit on a message board. And boy do you take advantage of that.

Funnily enough us in the forces pay our taxes too.
I agree with you. No one in the forces is not a volunteer. However if we didn't volunteer then people would be forced to do it do better for that to happen.
