Are you a suicide bomber by night duffman?"He is an enemy officer taken in battle and entitled to fair treatment."
"No, sir. He's a sergeant, and they don't deserve no respect at all, sir. I should know. They're cunning and artful, if they're any good. I wouldn't mind if he was an officer, sir. But sergeants are clever."

While taking out the Chest Rig to photograph it, remembered(fell over) an old german Army Sleeping bag. The ones with the waterproof outer liner, and sleeves. Weighs a ton. Most uncomfortable too.if you kept your arm inside the sleeves and turned during the night, it was next to impossible to get out of them. The theory was you could engage the enemy while still in the comfort of your green maggot.
I'm willing to give it away, to free up the space. Will deliver to most places in greater cork area.

Can recall me and one other in my old unit dancing around like loons at the back of the lines in Kilkenny years ago..."Well, stone me! We've had cocaine, bribery and Arsenal scoring two goals at home. But just when you thought there were truly no surprises left in football, Vinnie Jones turns out to be an international player!" (Jimmy Greaves)!"

MOD:Take it to PM's gentlemen.Your Business is your Business the rest of us neither want or need to know.Only warning."Let us be clear about three facts. First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm." ------- Field Marshall Wavell, April 1945.
