Have a look at p24 of today's Daily Mail. Can't seem to find a link to the website.
Basicly, a PDF BSM is running a boot camp in Letterkenny.

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.Comment

It's not a fitness boot camp, its part of the 'How we remember exhibition' being held in the county Museum. The exhibition looks at the role of the 28 Inf Bn and the 24 Inf Bn (FCA) during the troubles. AFAIK the BSM is merely giving demonstrations on ironing without using an iron, polishing shoes and tying a knot in a tie.

Surely the BSM has better things to do than run happy husbands course.......But there's no danger
It's a professional career
Though it could be arranged
With just a word in Mr. Churchill's ear
If you're out of luck you're out of work
We could send you to johannesburg.

I think its a good idea, one my missus could attend to learn how to iron! I think its a good bit of PR, and a chance to give something back to the community, in the form of a few simple skills.Comment
