On my first detachment, I was given a waistcoat type item with heavy plates inside. I rocked up to the cab looking like the dashing war hero to be promptly told that one didn't wear it - one sat on it! Apparently, the famous and much missed 'Chunky' Lord had a bullet come through the floor of the Whirlwind 10 and it is alleged to have lodged in his cheeks (not the ones on his face - the other ones!!).
