As a footnote, I finally got him posted to Shilo, where rumour had it he was sent to the museum as a mannequin...

In reality they cloned him and filled the entire regiment with the end product.

I remember watching one of the officers drivers trying to back up an Iltis with a trailer in the snow. The trailer would jacknife, so he would give it more gas. I learned not to bother installing new trailer arms as they would only last until the next ex.

Mind you, RCRs weren't any better. We installed a brand new bumper on a 5 ton, at which time all the 5 ton drivers wanted the same. But the first ex he went on, they attached the hook of a tow chain to the center of the bumper, despite both D rings being there. He comes in right after the ex wanting a new bumper.

Same driver was going through starters far too frequently. This was with the 5 ton diesels, in Wpg at -15. He would crank until either the truck started or the starter would de-solder itself.

I need anger therapy.
