Visit to the Anti Tank Platoon by the Commander-in-Chief,
Far East,
He had some good news in the early hours when his wife presented him with a new baby back home in Kowloon. Commander-in-Chief: "Congratulations, Cpl Ryder. Flying you back are they? Cpl Ryder: Well, I hope theyre not expecting me to swim, Sir. Peals of laughter from from the Commander-in-Chief and Anti Tank Officer, dark scowls from the Colonel and Major Ted Moorat. Later that day. Colonel: Lippy lot that anti tank platoon of yours. Anti Tank Officer: I have to agree, Colonel, but they are the best trained anti tank gunners in the Far East, if not the whole Field Army. Colonel: No wonder theyre so cocky if thats what you encourage them to believe. They had just achieved a first day 87% success rate, the best ever recorded on those ranges and with borrowed training pool guns. |
