This is how it usually plays out...

You get killed.....and say...

STARLIGHT TO MY LOCATION!

Medic spots you...

** REVIVE! **

YOU DIE AGAIN!

Why? Medic got the revive point only to have you get killed again.

Starlight is some sort of codename for medic.

IRL, I doubt they say 'starlight' - I'm in the British Army and I've never heard a Medic referred to as 'starlight'. If the SAS can still speak after being wounded, I bet it's just an unbelievable amount of swearing, and the Medic just follows the abuse to find the casualty

I stand corrected on the 'starlight' thing.

Re: What do the British SAS say when they get critically wounded ?

Interesting... But if, in the game, they refer to medics as "Starlight" why don't they refer to the REME as "Bluebell"?

Must be that silly British cockney slang. I never quite understood that.
