got in a fight with three squaddies in farnham once
in a scream pub, on this ludicrous premise:
pillar in middle of room with small shelf for glases round edge. put down my cider, took off my coat, looked back, other beers had joined it, identified mine being head-free and piss coloured (and flavoured.. blackthorn *shudders*
) and pick it up. next thing i know 'oi! cunt!' *meathead #1 shoves me* 'you looking at my FUCKING pint you fucking CAAAAAHNT?!?!?' *meathead #2 shoves me 'you looking at his fuckin pint you fucking student fuckin CAAAHNT?!?!?! *meathead #3 pipes up 'fuckin CAAAAAAAAHNT!!!!'

in fairness i don't think 'well i'm sure as shit not looking at your girlfriend here, so ask her to stop fuckin pushing me' was the BEST thing i could have said, but hey ho, my mouth often out-accelerates my brain. thankfully about the same time the punches (which for the record, could have been delivered by anaemic toddlers for all the effect they had, and i AM a self-confessed pussy) started flying, a group of 4 military police burst in, grabbed us all, dragged us outside, and after realising i wasn't one of their meathead brood, set about forcibly herding their mongs into the back of a van, using big fuckoff sticks as gentle encouragement. they then apologised, one of them even replaced the pint i'd spilt, and explained that these douchenozzles had been goign down the main street of farnham from one pub to another looking for students to fight.
this was 2001, so i'd imagine it's eminently possible they went on to torment innocent iraqu civilians in a similar manner.

the massive cunts.

When I was at uni
three guys from the air force were in our hall bar and they kicked off and subsequently got arrested and kicked out of the military.

One of my flat mates said it was overly harsh for them to lose their careers over a brawl in a pub.

I thought it was fairly reasonable, if you can't stand in a pub and not punch someone in the face, you're hardly likely to be able to make rational decisions in a battlefield situation are you.

exactly
chances are your average insurgent is gonna be armed with somethingna trfile more fatal than a bunch of knuckles and three testosterone swamped braincells trying to figure out spatial awareness and agression whilst remembering to keep up the breathing and circulation malarkey.
