My definition of a good run never included finishing with a Court Martial.

Where's your sense of adventure? Whatever happened to " I don't give a ****, I'm killick of the mess and my name is "Jack me hearty"!...

Allow me to buck the trend for hero worshipping this throbber. Perhaps Ramsay’s sentence was light because his wife had left him. Perhaps he thought he could woo her back by becoming ‘famous’.

I’ve been totally elephant’s trunk and been in the brown and smelly as a result. I was a daft young sprog in civvies, among messmates, not a 39 year old Senior Rate, in uniform among strategic friends and allies.

Not big, not clever. Were it up to me he’d be returning to Faslane as an AB.

The line is:

I don’t give a fcuk for the Killick of the Mess...

Jack Me Hearty is big OD.

I think they call it journalistic licence or some such .....

 

[Sumo]

it wasn't his fault, he had crap going on in his life, and someone put on a free bar, the outcome was the train wreck waiting to happen actual crashed and burned, or he could have shown some control and not been sexist or racist, yanks are fair game

lucky to keep his rate, hopefully hidden, will be loss of any points for his buttons, there is a time and place to be an OD, that was not it.

Sounds like a good run ashore.....

Yep sounds like a standard run ashore, Septic's no sense of humour?

 

[Pontius]

Could have been worse; last time I was there (Mayport, not Edinburgh) one of my oppos trapped and ended up marrying her. I think I would have preferred the tasering

Still not as bad as Naples where your's truly had a member of his division in the clink that involved fighting with Spanish from the Principe De Asturias. English v Spanish in an Italian city and stiletto knives involved by both parties. That was 'fun' sorting that out

Booze and tasers....child's play.

 

[Ninja_Stoker]

Two tasered? Typical press exaggeration.

Whilst by no means condoning drunken tom-foolery, six arrests from a carrier during a port visit is probably more of a reflection of lean-manning than indicating there were hordes of drunk and rowdy rapscallions on the loose and escaping capture.

Obviously, what happened was not cricket. But cor blimey guv' this has been happening since the dawn of time
