    Just don't call me brother...


    Where have you been?
    What do you know?
    What have you seen?


    Heard it many times before.
    You’ve been there,
    done that...
    seen the World,
    jumped outta planes;
    been to war.


    And you know it all.
    But!
    The devil’s in the detail,
    hence your downfall.


    Just...


    A military Walt,
    I met down the pub.
    Shut up!Ship out!
    A wanna-be hero,
    who’s read all the books;
    but...
    really knows nowt.


    Just don’t call me brother is all.....

    Nice one brother.
    I have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.

      Ask them who their first CSM or RSM was when they went to Battalion and was a Tom. If they so much as hesitate....well.... Your whole life you never forget those men. Ever.

            Think the best one is their regimental number, because Walts never had one !

              thing is its a pretty small world nowadays, even if you were a very shy and sensitive airborne soldier who kept to himself and didn't drink, someone would remember you if you were there.

                Dave.......
                Dave?
                Yeah you know Dave...
                Oh yeah Dave! Course how could I forget Dave, he didn't drink, was shy and no-one ever really knew he was there....in fact he didn't even exist in our Universal sub-conscience...very fond memories of Dave I have........

                I agree Steve....and I don't often say that to a red!

                  actually now I think of it, a very shy and sensitive airborne soldier who didn't drink would probably be so rare that everyone would remember him.
