Don't think he is. He's correct - obscenities were frowned on back then.
BTW Stonker, Wullie Fullerton ended up with the Hong Kong Police and Ray Huggins is still very much alive and kicking.

I believe, David G-O died over 10 years ago, though a quick Google doesn't reveal anything.

'Tis true that swearing was very much frowned upon.

Fuck that.

I am a little confused how some of them managed to get through AOSB. I thought the whole idea od AOSB was to weed out the wannabes, the wet blankets and those who showed no commitment?

I thought some of the platoon were brilliant. Especially the guy that started vomiting during his water parade!
"Are you going to be sick again?" "No.... Bleurgghsplash...."
"OI DONT LEAVE A TRAIL DOWN MY CORRIDOR!"
Gleaming.

Was he the bloke that didnt really want to be there ?

What's the reason for a dawn drinking parade?

AOSB is just an extended job interview, prior to people attending the graduate trainee programme (when converted to a business example). Have you never seen someone start a job and you wondered how on earth they got through the interview?

The most important result is who commissions at the end - the fact that some slip through the interview net but are identified or self select out during the process shows that the process is a pretty good filter.

Shite wah.

Aye he wanted to wrap after two days. I think by the end of the episode it transpired that he had made the first 4 weeks though.

Dawn drinking parade is to start hydration first thing, you will notice that they carry their water bottles with them all day for topping up.
