Leopard tanks for free ?

[Col Tigwell]

I have some experience with ex WO's, and I read the comment as a compliment to you Ian.

But then maybe my attitude is away from the norm.

I have an RAAF WO armourer work for me in a large company, he had crossed trained to a computor operator, and a damn fine one at that.

In my department we all referred to him as the Warrant, and I rather think that he was rather chuffed, especially as one of the young ladies in the office used to give him a hug, and say "my very first Warrant". By the time I left, everyone one from the MD down called him by that name.

I would not get too upset about it Ian, after all some are good enough to get that far, and lets face it, it is that rank which really runs the service.

I remember my old CO, who when addressing a young boggy pilot saying "Listen, Learn, one day if you are lucky enough, you may approach his level of knowledge, but you will never exceed it"

Phoenix that ACCO is still at Maydena.
