    And LOUDLY.
    We trained hard - but it seemed every time we were beginning to form up into teams we were reorganised.
    I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganising, and what a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while actually producing confusion, inefficiency and demoralisation.

    Having joined the army with a Grade 1 O-level in German and wangled most of 1980 on a Linguist course, I was forever being interrupted during my beer drinking by drunken cavalrymen asking inane questions like, "How do I ask for another beer?"

    I very quickly took to answering every such request with, "Ich moechte Ihre Tochter bitte in die Scheune mitnehmen."

    Oh look, a Google search shows I have already made this entry in Arrse:

    Foreigners Who Mangle Our Language
    Emsdorf and Victory!

    Drive me closer!
    I want to hit them with my sword!
