Shadow Beast Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 is your place on the camp like at wimbish or are you away from the barracks? all i'm thinking is the correct way if your place is on camp then the ROO should know first then he can call in the monkies, might rub people up the wrong way if you do the monkies first, all that stuff about chain of comd and all that. although if its off camp and mil property then the monkies will be better bet. richie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No probs just wondered.....he was a blown up in a landrover (he was driving) - survived without a scratch though.....and he stopped his convoy to save a tortoise in the road! lol Unfortunately he died a few weeks ago I just thought it would be a nice coincidence if someone knew him.
