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.

Originally posted by Celtic-Warrior View PostHave heard a couple of rumours that peakers are to be introduced to the RDF !
Not sure what a west life jacket is but I agree that there are other things needed.
In the last year I have only worn dress uniform once. I could do with a new pair of boots more than a fancy hat!!!!.

Peakers are personal issue, Pooled issue could work after all they cant be worse than the pool issue white parade gloves produced for the weekend! Most were a browny grey colour and some had any amount of moth and wear holes!!
Of course the issue of a black beret with or without green patch would sort the shades of green issue! All that would be left would be the shape issue! I did notice some of the more unusual styles of beret were sported by students from the eastern PNCO course! I thought these would display uniformity!Train Hard Fight Easy!!!!
