whoops

[Geoff Winnington-Ball (RIP)]

The best officers I ever served under were junior NCOs in WW2 who had risen through the ranks since. I like to think some of their attitude rubbed off on me once I 'put up my pips'; somewhere between 'snotty', 'nasty', 'cheeky' and just plain 'mean'. And I know my young lads would have followed me to the ends of the earth had I asked them to. I'm damned proud of that.

i am just messing with ya. we all have to be able to take and give a good poke from time to time. i just love the stupid games officers play to each other. in ADA we had the newest officer had to carry a teddy bear around with him all day in the proper uniform (PTs, CAMMO, web gear etc....) it was soooo stupid.

i like to think of officers as cars i guess, you have a LOT of lemmons but once in a while after afew years you get a clasic. but not too often.
