The final successful claim was that female toilets used by Cpl Mates had had clingfilm placed over them.

Well I was told by the Careers Information Officer that I would have a career in the RAF, 3 years to Cpl, 4 to Sgt, 5 to CT. I intend to sue!

Below the Glidepath - not correcting
Where's the equality in NOT getting the pi$$ taken out of you relentlessly by your colleagues, especially serving as a muppet, where (allegedly), your pysch profiling shows you have the strength of character for this kind of nonsense?
Although if the picture is any guide, it looks like her hairdresser was in the joke as well - sorry, more nasty squaddie humour.

Well when I was a sprog, I had this nasty big Sgt shout at me in a quite frightful manner that really upset me no end!
My bed was also apple-pied, and some very naughty person used to chuck my bed pack on the floor which meant I had to make again every day!
I was also forced into doing dreadful womanly things, such as washing my own clothing and even doing the ironing (sorry girls, just a joke you understand)
And at the first sqn I joined, I was told to go to stores and get a pair of falopian tubes for a Vulcan. (That really upset me quite a lot that did!
How was I to know that Vulcans didn't have falopian tubes fitted??)
Frankly, all these events have left serious mental scars that haunt me even today, some 35 years later. I still wake up at night dreaming of bull nights, square bashing and having to live in the same room as some very unpleasant people 9that bit is true!!)
I must pop off to see Uncle Gilbert Blades and see if he can't get me some compensation for these terrible incidents I think.
Stupid prat, can't take a joke................................
Kind regards

I can't believe her colleagues thought she was a dog!! And what's sexist about NOT fancying somebody anyway? I don't fancy ANY WAFS, looks like I'm for the high jump.
Importantly, there is a big difference between being sexually harrassed and 'wound up a bit by your colleagues'. Just because a bloke winds up a woman, it shouldn't automatically be sexist. If a male soldier was masturbating whilst saying the name of another male soldier it would never be taken seriously (although he'd certainly get filled-in by the 6 others in the tent!).

What I won't question though is your opening line...I reckon she'd get it too.
