Related, in that I was Orderly Dog at CF as a 19 yo trainee plt. 00:30 pager beeps, "Yawn, another signal orderly sgt?", "No sir, an IRA bomb threat to the unit", "Shoite! Have you spoken to the SDO?", "I think you'd better, sir".... "Ah, SDO, just had this call.....", "Jusshhht deal with it the best you can 'n' call me if......zzzzzz". Cue eight faces in the guardroom "What do we do now sir?". "Hmm, good question. Erm, you get the kettle on and you give me a cigarette, and the rest, let's sit around this table and work through a plan"
7 hours later, base all searched, no bomb, probably a hoax, me in front of Harry Staish getting (for once) a pat on the back; SDO waiting in outer office looking rather hungover.
