In the Army Now - The joy of the Armed ForcesI've never been a soldier. I was an air cadet once, but that mostly involved sitting in a mouldy hut learning about aeroplane engines with the hint that one day we might go flying.
Yet, anyone who has spent time defending their nation, or at least drinking bromide-laced-tea for their nation, must have stories to tell. Tell them now.

The joys of electrocutionA certain ex-raf corporal knob-end decided that he was fully qualified to re-install the 4 car batteries in the back of one of our landrovers.
'Unfortunately' for him, he obviously wasn't completely aware of teh power of 4 car batteries connected together.
Cue knob-end accidentally shorting the connection between at least 2 of them with the spanner.
everyone knows that electricity takes the shortest route to earth.......
but not in this case. It decided that knob-end had less electrical resistance than the cables on the batteries, and provided him with quite a shock.
this caused him to fly out the back of the landrover at a fair old rate of knots, only to be greeted by a group of people who were laughing their arses off at him. Dumb fucker!!
muhahaha!!!!
