After 38 years of military indoctrination, it will not be too long after standing at the main gate wondering whether to turn right or left that you realise you are 'ex-military' and will be for the rest of your life.In as much as it was my last job then when I leave I will of course be ex military but using your rather strange logic surely I should have spent the last 35 years always considering myself as an ex schoolboy 
You can choose to continue your military involvement with Honoury Mess Membership, or ATC Instructor or you can never, ever look over your shoulder. It matters not, your mindset and attitude to life will always give away your background and you may as well have BritMil tattooed on your forehead. Strange that apart from the occasional appearance in public in uniform, that not once in 37 years has anyone looked at me and knowingly tapped their nose as they recognise I am military, not once, as in never
To think any different is naive.

My brain tells me I am still a schoolboy; sadly the creaking bones do not. Oh and it takes a bit more than a black and white page 3 picture to be an upstanding 'young' man these days.

Seldom,
Can we asume that when you become reborn as a civvy again you will no longer be posting on the mil forums due to it no longer being applicable to you?
I see you as being very naive.
i'll ask you when you leave the mob.

I see you as being very naive. Strangely I see myself as simply being respectful of the site owners wishes
