Man. 5 weeks and 4 days till we get out of this place. Sandhurst is hard work, no doubt. Sometimes the hardest thing is just keeping morale up and facing another day. You become very good at seeing all that's best in the day. And ripping the s**t out of your mates.
You've got to take it one day at a time. Get up, find some energy from somewhere and press on until you can collapse again at the end of the day; avoiding as many bollockings as possible on the way.
Swerve to Lead, baby

The rest of our officers are pretty good overall. The majority seem about as Scottish as myself from the accents, but are generally all good as soldiers. My last troopie in Recce was a great fella, only aged 26 and a bloody captain! He had already done Sqn 2iC on Telic 7 aswell- the phrase "flyer" springs to mind!
RE: My sister- Yes, there are often comments made from lads seeing family photos and the like. None of the boys have met her, and I fully intend to keep it that way! Not really too much to worry about with her really, as she is very family orientated- the first things she tells potential boyfriends is that she has a 6ft skinhead tank commander Iraq war vet for an older brother, and that her dad is an ex- Royal Marine Commando Falklands vet who now does Royalty/ Diplomatic protection. I don't think she has any risk of being badly treated!
