This is a question In the Army Now - The joy of the Armed Forces

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.

our school had compulsory CCF (combined cadet force - army cadets)
and every so often we'd be bussed to the local army base for shooting and assault course days.
Once, we were given a 'treasure hunt' style activity to find loads of markers then return to yomp round the assault course. Trouble was, i didn't have a watch, so i didn't return on time, resulting in a major security alert as a whole bunch of soldiers were mobilised to find a confused teenager in ill-fitting combat gear wandering around their tanks and field-guns.
