I met a young chap selling these at an exhibition in London in the early 90s. We talked for a while as he seemed a good egg. He expressed an interest in the TA and I gave him the full sales pitch. He subsequently joined, but went to a unit more exciting than mine.
The rest is history and young Bear has done quite well for himself.
Just shows that to match the expression 'How the mighty have fallen' with the correct and timely instructions 'How the mighty have risen'
Well done that man...
