Re: British SAS, what they say?

star-light. The star could be in reference to the red cross or star on medic jeep, or a medic in general.

Well since we have some lads from across the pond (from me) chiming in... what does starlight mean (obviously in this context medic), but where does it come from?

I believe starflight was a term used for medical helecopters.

I think they didnt want the british voices to sound to much like the USMC.
