Theres a great story in General Mike Jacksons Bio, (which is a great read BTW) where Jackson at that point being a 3 star general and Chief of Staff. The highest Ranking soldier in the Army (??) gets a sarchastic bollocking from the one of the guards regiments RSM's for turning up late to one of the queens big do's. Brilliant!

Hi Tom,
A sign of the times then, when the R.S.M. is younger than you ...

. I thought that was meant to be policemen. Thanks for putting up the stories about chits and for explaining TQMS. This is all helping me to understand a lot.

Thanks Ronnie, I remember that thread.

Found a few of my fav. stories in a particular book of my father's. Have a bit more on a particularly well-respected R.S.M. Grant, but he's for the IG thread. According to a quote he addressed a Ruling monarch, "You idle Monarch, sir!"
