Back in the 60s, our sqn cdr, later OC Tengah (not Mike Knight), and finally retired as an AM, was a jolly good egg. He used to carry a bull whip, punch his compiling on the arm, sufficient to dead arm him and in short was a bully.
I last met him as he was coming through a doorway. He gave me double handed blow below my rib cage and asked me how I was.
yo uhh
But as a jolly good egg they kept promoting him.
