Not particulary aviation related but, an interesting and often amusing series describing traditions of the British Army, strange customs that are upheld at mess dinners etc.. I did a search and could find no reference to it before on Pprune.

Here's the link to series 1 of 7

I shall save that for this evening, when SWMBO will be watching Soap!!

Thanks for posting :ok:

Now, what tie shall I wear for that? RAF? RN? Combined Services? :cool:

Let us know what you thought. Viewing all of the episodes took up my afternoon yesterday, and very insightful it was!

Tradition is good. Ask any US Marine!

Individuality with a touch of eccentricity, seems to be the order of the day.
Most revealing and enjoyable
