In the Army Now - The joy of the Armed ForcesI'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.

The Australian Army Reserve......officer training regiment in Sydney is the Sydney University regiment (Sydney University being the oldest and most prestigious university in Australia). Since over half the people who go to the older universities in Australia come from the economic top 25%, this means that they have a particular idea of who they want to be officers...which strikes me as a bit fucked.
