100%	kigheilo	wombat	In the late 50s in L... $In the late 50s in Lulworth Gunnery School a big display was put on for all the visiting officers etc from forces all over the world. Among the weapons on display were the \'Mobat\' and the \'Wombat\', anti-tank rockets steered by wire. The \'Mobat\' was the mobile weapon but the \'Wombat\' was \'fixed\'.The REME built a lovely stand for the \'Wombat\', it was very impressive and they painted it beautifully. The big day dawned and everything was going well,even the tank smoke launchers worked properly and laid perfect smoke patterns.Brand new Churchill tanks left over from the war, (some with only 6 miles on the clock), had been bought down from Woolwich, filled with petrol and put out on the ranges for the demo. The \'Mobat\' was fired, direct hit, then the \'Wombat\' was fired and we all watched as the projectile went miles off course and finished up in the sea. When we turned to look at the weapon, all became clear, the operators had dropped everything and buggered off because the \'Wombat was on fire, it turned out that REME had painted their stand with a flammable paint and it was blazing merrily away. REME embarrassment was a joy to behold.$	0
80%	kigheilo	bedwetting	As \'early regulars\... $As \'early regulars\' in Catterick 1956,there were four of us in the billet for a few days before the N.S blokes arrived. One of the four (I don\'t recall his name) suddenly decided that he didn\'t want to be in the army, and said he had heard that if you wet the bed, the army didn\'t want you, so that was what he was going to do to get out. He started straight away, wetting his bed every night and told our troop sergeant that it was because he was upset at being away from home.It wasn\'t long before he had to sleep in the guardhouse each night,and was woken every hour to have a piddle. He told us that he managed it, and they told him that he was going to be released from his \'Regular\' commitment. He was \'over the moon\' when they told him to hand in his kit, but when he did, was unfortunately, immediately told that he was now a National Serviceman.(We can only imagine that they don\'t care if N.S soldiers smelt of piss). We never saw him again so we assumed that he had been posted somewhere else for training.WHAT A LUCKY FELLOW!!$	0
100%	peter verrall	shit eater of the black forrest	when the ruperts wer... $when the ruperts were still green,and fresh from sandhurst,they allways seemed more on edge when we were crashed out on exercise,as the were keen to impress and proove they were one of the lads,however when it was time to enjoy a late nite brew and a few tiffin bars from the ration box during the net dog shift,they never failed to show signs of wanting mummy when they had to go into the dark noisy nite to call for mr brown.and after tales of wild bore,the nasty baddameinhoff,and a few soxmis intruders,the colour allways seemed to drain from their poor rosey faces.but while they were crouching in the leaves trying to push one out,roll in hand and a steady gaze on the radio tent,for that guiding lite back to safety.they were unaware that we used to creep up behind,hidden in the noise of the never endind gennies and with spade in hand scoop up the droppings and creep back into the nite and noise,back to the vehs and back to our brews.now he knew he just had a shit,but when he came to bury it it was gone,taken into the dark by the poo monster. so,in he came ,panting,flustered and still doing up his spanking new shiney combats.we never said anything,just the usuall\$	9

One of the sea faring officers was walking in their direction and they just glanced at him as they continued to walk past him. He stopped, turned round and hollered at the lads... \$	1

This was normally done a Sgt or equivilant. One day the tie down chains snapped and it shot off down the runway, by the time the bloke up front realised what had happened he had yanked back on the stick and gone ballistic (ie straight up as was the lightnings want). When he radioed the tower on his headset that he was wearing, htey advised him to use the ejector seat and bang out. He replied that he was sat on a fokkin beer crate and didn\'t have a canopy either. they also had to get a pilot up the tower to talk the guy down.$	3
