Pussyand Gunsmoke.......live by one, die by the other, and love the smell of both in the morning!!
Tralee 2000. Great course, well run and a good deal of it spent on the ground. I'll never forget the walk across the mountains the morning of the 24hrs. Good one !! I never forget nearly half the course taking the Man truck back to the camp while the rest of us headed for the hills.
Eagle Eye, after some consdieration (and a conversation in the mess last night) I now believe you were on the 'other POT's course' run by the 15bn. The one with the other 3 3AD personnel, and 'baby sham' and not the interesting camp run by the 14bn. The second course was certainly one to remember
I wouldn't like to be saying anything like that. Lets just say he was the first to drop out of the daily forced march on the STD's course! I am surprised he could managed the situps for the cadets.... Still, interesting young fella.
If the baby sham you are talking about has the initials POC and was in the 23bn then he did make Sgt the following year and then went to the military college as a cadet and he is to be commissioned in July!!!!!
What difference does that make? We're all soldiers. If a female soldier happens to be the best POT then she gets it. There was nothing untoward in relation to that award.
