Ah yes, fond memories of lunatics in authority. I recall back in the day, when I was alot younger and quite a bit more stupid. Arriving in Kenya for supporting an Infantry exercise, with a to remain nameless Infantry battalion. After de-busing. A good ole Army term for getting of the plane. We were informed by a rather gruff looking, stongly Glaswegian spoken Regimental Sergeant Major. That as far as he was concerned, that we, the Royal Signals, Loggies & Medics attached for the exercise, were nothing but a pile of poop (He was alot more explicit). We were, "in the poop" as far as he was concerned. That he was going to "teach us poop" how to be real Soldiers. That he didn't like "poop part timers" being on his exercises. For those who don't know. It's a real insult to a Regular Army Soldier to imply, or infere, that they are a member of the TA. The next six weeks, as you may imagine was a real blast. I had never seen, nor have seen since, a regiment with such low moral and poor retention of it's junior soldiers. All at the hands of this "one" tosspot. So as the story goes. This guy, I was realiably informed, some years later. After spending nearly 20 years of his Army career bullying, brow beating & bashing junior ranks. Got his commision, and was promoted to be the Regimental Families Officer. The guy you have to go and see if your marriage is failing.
