We had to do 16 Weeks basic training in the Royal Engineers in the early 1950s. The second part,was various trade training,but we still had to continue some of the early training in addition.Sadly we had one poor chap who could not go on and took his own life. Things in BAOR were far better than the UK,with ex German barracks that had central heating and double glazing.

The one thing that upset me was that a person from that era used the out of place, current term of "guy" instead of "man." I find it sad that many people today automatically adopt Americanisms in favour of my native language, English.

So true. I was seven when the war started. Couldn’t see the drama in the situation. Spent time swooping pieces of exploded bombs and antiaircraft shells for bits of Meccano and other toys. Joined the army at 17. Went to Oswestry for training, then to Korea where the war had finished. All interesting for a young guy.

My late father was in the British Army based in Egypt, Jordan and Iraq from 1949 to 1952. He arrived at Alexandria, then travelled by jeep and truck, spending time at Amman, Bagdad and also RAF Habbaniyah. As an army cartographer, he was making maps for the British and also for the Jordanians. He was presented with a Medal of Gratitude from the King of Jordan, which I still have to this day. He told me that he really enjoyed his National Service. Dad would have been 91 this year. RIP Dad.

Sad to say we now have woke instructors if you even shelter trainees they report you to the welfare officer for hateful conduct you can't even inject humour a little bit of fun because the fun is deemed to be bullying. There is no longer the possibility of having a proper career you know military there is no guarantees when are politicians sitting in their comfortable offices far away from the noise of battle make an executive decision based on economics and hurty feelings decide to cut your role within the military as redundant. Been there seen it got the T-shirt seeing the results of cutbacks so when you need a task to be carried out the individuals who are tasked to do it have no idea or concept of what they're doing because the role will ceased years ago but suddenly that role what's needed because a task had to be done, luckily the word people not directly involved able to assist and direct them in the right direction. With more and more cutbacks that will no longer be the case because the skill the knowledge and the information will be lost in time or buried in the records or in a loan file somewhere in a very large memory bank for the computers. And as some will be stored on type and we now use microchips we need to hunt for the tape recorders to play the tapes we only have to look at the mobile phone industry and are we up to G 2001 yet? And old wars are conducted by pushing a button and the robots do the rest would make a nice script for a movie wouldn't it.

Compulsory national services its just wrongful on every level, because it flys in the face of everthing that my father and grandfather fought and suffered for. I value my own individual everyone else's individual freedom of choice over their own destiny your choice is your business mine and others choises should belong to them, but freedom rightly means anyone can go and volunteer to join the armed service's if they like to live a life like some kind of obedient slave giving up their own freedom to follow the will of others, even if need be until death. Its good you survived and made a career and a good living for yourself, but a life of possible sucess or failures is in front of everyone regardless of compulsery service or not, i dont beleive your sucess was due to your compusery service, i think its was down to the choices you made, after all so many after serving land up with nothing on the streets, broken and forgotten by the country they served.

Kia ora from New Zealand. My mate, Patrick served in Cyprus, I think around 1956 or so. He was a man of not many words, and he said very little about his time there. For many years I have wanted to know more about what he may have experienced. He came to New Zealand in 1991 from Wiltshire and I met him here after that. It is enthralling, reading your comment, as well as others. Thankyou for your service and also for your comment. Aroha.

@oldman1734 Год назад
When “square bashing” the standard rebuke was “ when you were born they threw away the baby and keep the after-birth”. I think life was tougher in those days. When a soldier was crushed to death on the troopship Oxfordshire the people who saw it happen and tried desperately to stop it were shown no sympathy whatsoever. They were my mates (I was lucky because I had offered to get into the NAFFI queue so I didn’t see it) and obviously deeply distressed. But not a word. The unfortunate soldier was thrown overboard the next day. We were all told to keep away from the port side. And that was it.

The greatest thing world war 2 did was force the fuddy duddies out of the main leadership roles to be replaced with younger and far more capable leaders in the British army. These fuddy dudies unfortunately of a permanent commission reappeared and replaced battle gardened and street wise commanders with the usual blimps. These young excellent leaders just left rather miffed that those who hid in the closet suddenly reappeared when the bullets stopped and took their jobs from them only to be demoted.
