    Its the Barrack or the transport officer in charge who are responsible for the sorry state of the barracks and the apparent lack of discipline of their men. It is slovenly and reflects badly on the unit, barracks and army. While not advocating the "if it does not move white wash it mode" it is no secret that in a well run unit standards are set and maintained.
    A comment from a former colleague of mine who has a lhell of a lot of active military experience under his belt, on the troops sent to Baidoa in Somalia under Unisom. They did a great job, set standards of discipline for other units , the compound loooked like a guards depot and it was obvious that the guys were not just " an ordinary transport company" He has over 30 yrs in the BA most of it in the SAS..
    Its about setting standArds and maintaining them and not making exceptions.

        But you can't get Dominos in Somalia.

              I'd say there wouldn't be much of a demand there for pig parts, them being Muslim an' all.

                cant get a nice bita ham nor a good faed 'a schpuds
                I knew a simple soldier boy.....
                Who grinned at life in empty joy,
                Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
                And whistled early with the lark.

                In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
                With crumps and lice and lack of rum,
                He put a bullet through his brain.
                And no one spoke of him again.

                You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
                Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
                Sneak home and pray you'll never know
                The hell where youth and laughter go.

                    Going in the bin

                    Love it
                    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
                    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
                    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
                    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
                    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
                    Are full of passionate intensity.
