From our Sect Comd:
Don't fold your arms...
If you fold your arms you'll grow tits - and if you grow tits I'll shag you.

Same one here, along with "if you put your hands on your hips you'll get hips like a woman & if you do I'll shag you..."
ARRSE - Not as funny as it used to be since 2003.
Any state which has a permanent staff of officials, they begin as our servants and end up imagining themselves our masters.

There's only two reason you'll end up in the shit, doing something when you should have been doing nothing; do nothing when you should have been doing something.
To keep going will be painful, to stop will be agony!
Better to have it and not need it, then need it and not have it.

Night will fall and drown the Sun
When a good man goes to War
Friendship dies and true love lies
Night will fall and dark will rise
When a good man goes to War
Demons run, but count the cost
The Battles won, but the child is lost
When a good man goes to War.

"Don't."
Best piece of advice I was ever given. I wish I'd listened.We need people who look to the stars, holding the nation and the world in their hearts but at the same time we need down-to-earth people who can do serious and trying work.
In a definite sense, a country's power and prestige isn't only a reflection of its economic power but also a reflection of its people's quality and morality. Moreover, I think the latter is actually more important in the long-term.

Not exactly advice but something that created a mental picture that's never left me!

Don't be clever.
Sgt addressing a squad of recruits. 'You lot, - What's the capital of the Republic of Ireland?'
A few mumbles, then someone says 'Dublin Sarn't'
'That's right. And since you're late on parade, I want you 'dublin' over to the armoury - GO!

"Trust naeee cunt"
He was right."Stand down, at ease... you're not in the Army anymore."
