Marched out of a quarter in Gutersloh with wife expecting our second child in 3 weeks or less, having polished everything including the underside of the open staircase for all 4 floors (Kahlertstrasse), and arrived in Cosford to a dirty quarter, broken window, filthy carpets, 2 rings on cooker not working and entire cooker still covered with the remains of all the meals cooked by workmen renovating the quarters, none of which were "available". Even the bath appeared to have been used for mixing paint. Families officer was not bothered as he has us over a barrel with the furniture on the way from Germany and wife expecting at any time.
It was part of a pattern, every time I got promoted and posted, we got a ****ty quarter as a reward.
