One of those boring exercises on the plains of northern Germany.
Middle of the night, radio silence, all "cammed" up, SAS in the vicinity.
You know the scenario.
Fred the Airtech decides it is a good time to visit the DTL for a long overdue "compo ration dump"
Armed with his trusty SMG a new bog roll and one of those high powered aluminium torches he sets off.
He reaches his destination and is just about to sit down when he drops his bog roll.
Switches on his high powered torch.
Shout from the guard "Put that f*****g light out.
Fred panics and drops the torch in to the depths of the DTL where it lands with the beam pointing skywards and a clear ray of light reaching to at least half a kilometre !!
Very understanding and kindly SSM.
