Any bad lads out there remember the "Screamin-Skull" or the boottie clour sargeant with the broken nose ...1974 - 75ish :twisted:

The screanin skull, what a twat. Did'nt think he would ever die. Three stints in DQ's and the twat was there every time.

Well so far 100% of DQ inmates have been TAS ratings. Could it be anything to do with being anti-submarine torpedo suckers? :?

I didnt have the misfortune to meet the Screaming Skull but did meet his predecessor Tiny who was the Bootie in charge in the 60s

Tiny was in charge there in 1954, I was in there for absence without leave.
I was fed up with the Navy, however after a couple of trips on a trawler out of Dublin I decided that I was better off in the mob, so I came back on my own accord.

Always a civvy what a fuckin divvy

Divvy? :?

So tell me, is it a myth, or did they still have oakum picking at DQs when you were there? If so, when did this barbaric practice cease?
