Very true Steve, But the SNCO in question only mentioned points 1 & 2 lol. After all he was only REME

True, you couldn't expect much else from a TA Sgt/Major after all, anyway if he was REME he'd of been a WO2.

I work with officers with something even more deadly than a weapon and a map...they have a radio connected to a fighter loaded with lots of A/G ordinance.

SNCOs run the army.   Officers do what the SNCOs tell them to do (quietly).  A good Officer listens.  A bad one usually finds they are assigned to some menial task.  Good COs never cross the Snakepit (Sergeants' Mess).  Bad COs find they get sacked if they do.   A good SNCO protects his men from the trouble that a bad Officer produces. 

So I was taught by my RSM after hanging three hooks on my sleeve.

The worst of the lot here a Reserve Officer Training Corp cadet that makes it to ButterBar (2nd Lieutentant). If you could buy one for what he knew and sell one for what he thought he thought he knew you'd never have to work again.

Steve, it was bad enough trying to stop our oc (a Flight Lieutenant) calling him a Flight Sargent.

Theres some really weird ranks in the British Army, especially in the woodentops and donkey wallopers, Lance Sergeants, Staff Corporal and Corporal of Horse being three of them.

[Aircav]

Aye, tradition that dates back to Queen Victoria.

Aye, tradition that dates back to Queen Victoria.

Even a 3 year old tradition is still a tradition...
