Royal Marine surrender kit

This kit is exclusivley issued to the Royal Marines, it consists of one white flag, plasty cuffs (enough for 15), hessian blind fold, a aid memoir and comes complete with its own dpm pouch so you can have it atatched to your webbing at all times.

The aid memoir gives the following instructions:

Royal Marines Surrender

Aid Memoir


1 Actions on sighting enemy gun boat, place all weapons on the deck.

2 Calmly raise both hands into the air.

3 Reach into the Royal Marines surrender pouch and withdraw the issue white flag.

4 Then take out the issued plasty cuffs as the enemy wont be expecting the sudden surrender without a fight. last thing we want to do is antagonize them!

5 Blame the female for the navigation error.

6 Once encamped in enemy POW camp use the issue pen & notepad to start recording your experience`s for the big payout from the press on release!

Points to note!


The RM issue flag has been tried and tested in multiple theatre`s of operations from the Falklands to Iran, it measures 6" X 10" and can easily be seen from at least 1000 metres in open water.

Are you implying Buglers have "some neck", May I suggest you wind yours in a little.

It looks like a Bugle cord just wrapped around the tunic in an un-military fashion. Naff....

Could this have been your Pusser's instrument..???

(Probably not if you were cornet/ violin, flute/picc, tenor horn or a Bulger)...

It's too old to have been around when I was, and I don't recollect coming across ( don't go there) any 'Bessons' ....
