I guess that we can forgive your uncle because he is only Infantry. If he was Artillery he would be committing a very big no-no. In an Artillery unit the guns are the Regimental Colours and standing with your foot on the regimental colours will get you a hand spike across the teeth.

I don't know if I would want to be the one to try, he was a short little guy but tough as nails. After fighting through Italy with the Hasty P's he was transferred to reinforce the Stormont Dundas and Glengarry's in time to land on Juno. He passed away a few years ago at 98.
