"I tried to join the army at 16 but they had a gay ban back then so I fell into corporate office work instead"
I was going through basic training when the ban was lifted. The staff were obviously unprepared for the change.. we just got asked if anyone wanted pyjamas. |

"Royal Engineers 77-90. Once a sapper always a sapper and proud"
I once caught a Walt out who claimed to be a Royal Engineer. Siad, "I didn't know you were a sapper".
"what's a sapper?" came the reply, followed by claims of all he did was drive lorries, and the RE were never based in Tidworth.
A bit odd, as my ex father in law was RSM there for a while. |
