WE,. .. .Don't you believe it ! I am slightly ( no,more than slightly ) concerned that this 'trickle' of claims will turn into a torrent over the next few years. The selection system let HM the Queen down in granting said person a commission.. .. .Why am I concerned ? Well, it will be me stepping into the breech as an OC in the next couple of years and, at the moment, I am not convinced that the system ( ie the MOD) is behind me. Worrying ? Yes. . .. .How do you calculate the risks of attacking a cave in Afghanistan where the enemy has been digging for the last 20 years when you are worried that one of your 'colleagues-in-arms' might sue you for a decision that didn't quite work out as you expected? . .. .An exaggeration? Most definitely...but the seeds of doubt are there. . .. .Anyway, why didn't she just take her high heels off and step on it across the Parade Square in her tights/stockings? That would have shown some gumption, a bit of initiative...and got her there on time! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="tongue.gif" />
