DaveR Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 dont flake out after starting this thread even if it is over 100 degrees This'll be my fifth Troop so it's not like it's new to me. I haven't gone down on a parade yet in 10 years so I'm confident about this one too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 More common is drinking loads of water so that you're nicely hydrated but then needing a p*ss after 10 minutes and having to either get on with it or just decide to let it all go. That's happened in the summer outside Buck' Palace more then the general public will ever know! All this time I thought there was supposed to be a moat around the palace... eew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 well done (to the ones that actually can stand up). I had a passionate dislike to parade as a cadet. Think I'd rather face the taliban than a military dignitary with an eye for detail. Even to this day, if i hear someone shout "Right Wheel, Quick march" I mess my pants. ... makes visiting Kick-Fit rather embarrassing lol.

nevins Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 So will the person passed out be punished ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveR Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 So will the person passed out be punished ? I've already had him in my office for an "interview without coffee" (he's in my platoon so discipline is my responsibility). As soon as the medical investigation is done, assuming there's nothing physically wrong with him (which there shouldn't be - he's an infantry soldier, after all!), he'll be charged for a self-inflicted injury. It's a man's world! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevins Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Thats strict as hell lol, so as punishments go during ww1 if they refused to go over the trench they got shot did they not? Does this still happen lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this still happen lol Sadly not, although the punishments for "refusing to soldier" are some of the harshest we have. For obvious reasons, of course - depending on the situation you could seriously endanger other troops' lives by inaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 So, what rank are you George? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevins Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 And this is the reason why I could never join the army, I dont do discipline well lol. I have a problem with people talking down to me, and giving me a gun is just a bad idea I love to destroy things when bored, if I actually had to destroy something for a living I would be like a kid in a candy shop haha.

Exactly the type of thing I would do, idle hands are the devil's playground sort of thing, or shaped charges on the side of a hanger that when set off spells out have a nice day now with a smiley face.
