My parents are long deceased but I don't recall being hugged by either of them.

I have often wondered but have never asked. Maybe I should.
Based on my track record - left a good public school in the UK with nothing
- worked 11 months in a job then said I was quitting to go to College / Uni and join the mil, his assessment was right. Anyway, got the degree and ended up with a Commission which was a bit of a bonus.

500N - sounds like my Grammar School headmaster. But took great delight in returning in uniform after graduation from the Towers with wings and oh so minute PO braid. Job done.

Good to hear
I think (from what was said) that I raised a few eyebrows in the UK - family and old school - when it was published in the Old Oundelians magazine re my commission and degree.
I know that year my parents sent around a photo of me in my dress blues in one Xmas card list

My dad told me I'd last 6 months in the Army Reserve and one semester at University !!! Did that get my goat up !!!
Kids are gullible.
