Blitz Quiz #5
Ok Guys

I ask 5 questions.

You e-mail me the answers.

The quiz stays open for 5 days.

After 5 days I start going through my received e-mails and the first person with all 5 answers correct gets 5 bonus ladder points.


1 - In the Falklands War 2 Para had 4 objectives to capture - name them?

2 - Which Barachute Brigade spearheaded Operation Musketeer?

3 - When the first battle colours were presented to the regiment on 19th July 1950 by King George VI what was special about the occassion which was a first in the British Army?

4 - Five VC's were awarded to men who took par in the Arnhem operation. How many were awarded posthumously?

5 - Name Britains first Airborne operation?

I look forward to having the answers mailed to me.

What does a barachute do?

Seriously though. I think this should be an online quiz. You give 5 questions and then when guys answer 1-5 you say - you have 3 out of 5 but dont give them which ones etc.

Much more interesting in my book.

And for 5 ladder points - woof, the Blitz generosity knows no bounds!

You can get 5 points for being creamed in a 50 million point QB!

Give em 50!

RE: Blitz Quiz #5
Point 1 is a good idea and I will incorporate that into the next quiz as for point 2 I think you have gripped the wrong end of the stick. We dont award points for any huge reward its just a little thankyou for taking the time to join in. Its just meant to be a little fun timewaster.
