SQUADDIES super glued a giant sex toy to a rival barracks HQ in a hilarious prank.

Insiders said members of the Royal Tank Regiment launched a night-time mission across enemy lines to secure the dido to the wall of the King’s Royal Hussars base.

It appears they even painted the sex aid the same colour as wooden flashing – two stories up – to camouflage its existence.

And now it is feared the offending sex aid maybe stuck there for up to 40 days – after civilian contractors ruled the removal job was “not a priority”.

Footage emerged yesterday of soldiers laughing at their failed attempts to remove the dildo from the barracks building in Tidworth, where both units are based.

They had built a makeshift shaft from what appeared to be tent poles – but despite their thrashing it would not come loose.

Insiders claimed the sex toy had been stuck there by members of the Royal Tank Regiment to mock the famously posh King’s Royal Hussars cavalry unit.

Both are based at Tidworth and both operate Challenger II tanks – sparking an enduring but good natured rivalry.

A source said: “This is literally a case of willy waving over who is the better unit. The tankies – who are regular blokes - wanted to poke fun at the minted Hussars.

“They wanted bragging rights, they got them. Now it’s over to the Hussars to retaliate, if they have the balls. One thing is for sure, they have some stiff competition.”

It is believed a bunch of squaddies clambered on to the roof on Tuesday night to glue the sex toy in place, where it remains now.

The King’s Royal Hussars also operate Scimitar armoured recon vehicles. Army insiders confirmed they were probing the incident.

When quizzed on how close the Army was to finding the culprits, a source said: ‘’It’s a hard one.’’
