A.O.C's parade, Waddington late 70's. 9 and 50 Sqdns form one rank due to lack of men. Tremblerman is standing next to a corporal from 50 who is renowned for marching everywhere in a number 1 converted to a number 2 and a chip bag hat. A.O.C. a South African gentleman ( Lagerfeldt I think) stops opposite said corporal and compliments him on his outstanding turnout and asks " And what is your ambition in this man's Airforce Corporal?".
Instant response " To roll a cigarette with one hand SIR!!! The last bawled at full volume straight into his Airships ear. The colour the SWO turned had to be seen.
A.O.C. to his credit, instantly responded, "Very good, carry on"
