on exercise in Germany, my oppo and I were picked as stretcher bearers during an attack.
picked up a casualty with light wounds to run down to the first aid tent, half way there chemical attack alert is sounded.
so on with NBC suit, respirator etc and leg it to the first aid post.
get there all hot and sweaty to be told casualty is dead " no he is just wounded " we argue, "he's dead " were told, " how do you know ? "i argue.
"you dickheads didnt put his NBC suit on ! "
"shit, sorry mate" i say
"thanks Rochie" he says

I can sympathize with its being cold in Fulda in the winter. When I was there, '62-'63 we never saw any cheerleaders or USO groups.
. A body builder stripper. OMG this young Lt had never seen such a site. On post so she had cloth but not much. Flamming batons, breathing fire. High school twirlers could not match her. Lap dancing. And the cold cream she smeared all over the Ltc glasses so he could not see what she was doing. I don't know if was mad for the dirty glasses or because he could not watch. She had a way with worlds. The trash that came out of her mouth. It was not fit for humans but perfect for the Cavalry. She would in her 80s today. We tried to get her for the Regt Dinning In but sadly she was booked.
