@apod, a bunch of us were being shown how to dig a GPMG trench and everything was going well so people started to goof off and mess about and the Corporal threw a complete wobbly whehn one of the lads, after getting the nod for a smoke, flicked the butt into the trench. We had to bury "Private Butt", who was found dead on parade and render full honours and then fill in the trench / grave afterwards. Anyone who laughed or sniggered got to carry the GPMG up and down the hill at the double a few times.
