I've never been a soldier. I was an air cadet once, but that mostly involved sitting in a mouldy hut learning about aeroplane engines with the hint that one day we might go flying.
Yet, anyone who has spent time defending their nation, or at least drinking bromide-laced-tea for their nation, must have stories to tell. Tell them now.

After years of bumming around doing nothing, decided it was time to do something and went off to join the Army. Did all the paperwork and they gave me a train warrant to go away to basic training. What did I do? Smoke dope till 4am the night before at the 'goodbye' party with mates, and missed the train next morning. Still, was for the best - i'm living in california now on a not so slim salary, plus I dont have to deal with bombs or go shoot people in Iraq daily. Good work Miss Fate :)
