This question indicates that you probably were not in the same unit as us. You probably should have said our unit, or the unit. Instead you point at Bob and say "his unit" as if you are narrating a story you are not involved in. Perhaps it is a fishing expedition, Bob.<br />The nature of the question would indicate that you believe there may have been behaviour in the unit that somebody should be ashamed of. I know of no such behaviour unless you are considering behaviours that take place at favored Leagues clubs, The Railway Hotel in Liverpool or the Cross on most weekends. If you know of any outside that type then write a book. I am sure you will sell plenty of copies and Brereton and Campbell will give you a willing audience and Morrison will happily apologise before an investigation takes place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203110337754630589.post-17560135884101065192021-07-14T10:53:14.043+10:002021-07-14T10:53:14.043+10:00Anonymous says, "If you had any guts you'...Anonymous says, "If you had any guts you'd identify yourself." and " you are an anonymous coward hiding behind your keyboard."

It certainly wasn't so prior to the engagement with the Japanese.<br /><br />"Unlike what applied in the UK, no Australian conscripts fought in Korea." I know that.<br /><br />"albeit without so much as a whimper of protest<br />So you were there, were you, in my subunit? You wouldn't know." That is not a denial. By the way talking to yourself on guard duty at Holsworthy Barracks or on sentry duty on a training stint in the bush won't get you the attention that whinging to the CO, while he was inspecting your machete, might.<br /><br />"to fight in a war you disagreed with As did many other Nashos." You could probably include some regs in there too, but i was speaking about you.<br /><br />"your personal complaints<br />Not complaints - history, as in a chronicle of facts" They are your personal complaints/perceptions on matters based on facts as explained by you for years now.<br />https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/complaintAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203110337754630589.post-49367630844919447802021-07-10T17:42:13.103+10:002021-07-10T17:42:13.103+10:00Very similar.
