Me and my mate cut a regimental capstar in the grass outside our hut thinking we would get a recommend but all we got for our troubles was a rollicking for damaging the grass and put on a charge by the CSM. Happy days.

The above pic shows the NCO's of one company 1st Bat CG incuding the CSM referred to in my last post. I still remember the time he put me in close arrest for missing a fire drill and on another occasion when I tried to grow a moustache he said I looked like a rat looking over a s..t house brush. I heard on the grapevine that he has since died RIP.
