Thanks for that Nick - I don't know what that jerks problem is. A misguided
sense of intelligence and superiority - a simple snob I guess.

My grandfather was one of the last surviving Anzacs in Aus - he marched
every year until his death at 96 years of age, albeit the last few years in
a jeep.

My Dad was in the Light Horse in WW2 till he was injured early on (by a
friggin horse, not a German!)

I've never had to serve my country yet, and hope not to - but would
willingly do so if the same sort of circumstances arose.

I'd bet Larry Lounge hasn't risked more than trying a ice cube in his
whisky!
