There are Aces and a few jokers in a pack of cards.....same in BOP I guess, sweet FA to do with this thread but what the hell...a change is as good as a rest.............my old man served in the Eighth Army under Montgomery during WW2, I spoke to him on several occaisions about what it was like and some of his close shaves...........first was his Troop Transporter being Torpedoed by a German Sub on his way to North Africa and second was being Bombed........ ............by American Bombers.......used to laugh is socks off at that one as not one bomb hit a target.....
....the funniest was that water was in such short supply that when their recce vehicle blew a headgasket (out in the desert) they kept the water and used their 'pee' to fill the radiator.....he said the stench of steaming piss that bellowed out behind them nearly killed the poor sods driving behind................they had to keep stopping for a drink of water so that they could keep on peeing ...........
