    Na it was OK in the end

    except (as you so eloquently put it) the "knuckle dragger" commenting about how its great that the best part of the women joining was the installation of hot showers!

    Plus they are only artillery... not REAL soldiers ;o)

    Thing I get really annoyed with is the fact most Army Reserves think that the RDF is the successor organiation to the FCÁ. The RDF includes both the army reserve and the Naval Service Reserve which is the successor to ASM.

    Considering the number of naval reservists compared to ground-pounders, it's not that unreasonable a generalisation.

    NTM
