gone but not forgotten
I have just watched a recording of Tuesday nights episode of Bad Lads Army.if ever it was anything like that I'm glad I didn't take up a Army career.
National Service had finished before I left school,but I wanted to go into Boys Service(Junior Leaders),and then the Army ,I passed the entrance exam,all that was left was for my Mother to sign the papers (I understand it had to be the Mother,as the man your mom lived with was not necessarily your father... Is this true ?) when I was shouted at by a teacher at school,I didn't like it ,so decided that the Army life was not for me (coward)
I realize that it's " only a programme for TV" but was it ever like that?
