I remember on exercise out in the back of beyond sitting around and having a bet with everyone (Money involved) as to what time the fun and games would start, everyone bunged a fiver in the pot then picked a time, all times close to stand too were picked, we'll all bar one who picked a really ludicrous time......
Middle of the night.... Bang, people jump to their muskets and WW3 cracks off in the dark... Blank cases flying everywhere, it was in impressive sight in the dark but as no return fire flashes were seen the war soon died down.... Bastard who fire the first round off ( at absolutely nothing ) at such a ludicrous time saunters over to collect the pot.
