I was hoping it would be a "What to bring on my gap year?" thread.
Answer....your brain and a spare pair of shorts.
Amazing how many still forget both.

And the Army helped hammering it in a bit more  PS I assume you also include the spare pair of socks |

Well, you spent time there rumour has it. Some may have rubbed off, although I doubt your commanding officer would have appreciated a too enthousiastic salute |

That's before I spotted his obvious exceptional talents and invited him for a proper yomp across the Beacons. |

That's before I spotted his obvious exceptional talents and invited him for a proper yomp across the Beacons. Strangely enough, I never got to Colchester, been invited to stay at every glasshouse where I was posted to though. My longest stretch as a SUS (Soldier Under Sentence) was 28 days under section 43a of the Army Act 1955 (fighting when drunk). Got a lot of section 69 charges (Conduct prejudice of military discipline), which was basically used to charge you for anything none serious (a loophole charge). Colchester nick was reserved for soldiers serving over 28 days in nick, which generally meant anyone who was found guilty in a court marshal. Usually someone who had been to Colly (as it was known) ended up getting rank soon after returning to unit. This was because there time at Colly was like a boot camp, so they generally came back very highly trained. |

Apart from the tacky mo, I am 100% sure that is exactly how all Englishmen dress. And nothing you could say will change my mind !  |

Every time you post this inside info Tony an SAS "veteran" becomes more believable in a bar somewhere on Soi 6 Patters. |

Ok ok, you've got me again Smokes, you seem to see right through my stories every time. Now for the real truth, I only did 2 weeks in the army cadets on a field trip and that was as an attachment to the Royal Regiment of Boiler House Scammers (14th of Foot). I got all of my military material from some guy named Bob, who used to be the manager of the Penthouse Hotel in Soi 13/2. Unfortunately Bob passed away around 1998, so I am unable to tell you of any recent conflicts that I fought and died in for Queen & Country. |

I spent three years in high school army cadets and loved it. We were given these old 303's and thought they were great. Got to fire a Bren and an SLR as well.
Funny but apart from firing a few rounds through a M16 at the range at the Cu Chi Tunnels in Vietnam in 2004 I don't think I have done any other shooting since.
