WHAT DID ‘THE REG’ SAY AGAIN? Picture, if you will, a seminar room full of eager boy soldiers – all about 15 or 16 years old – very earnest, very self-important and very proud of ‘the uniform’ they wore. I had once been one of those boy soldiers (or ‘toy soldiers’, as some would have it). As a fourth form student, I had been in such a seminar room at Puckapunyal army base – wide-eyed and anxious to learn the lessons of war. Like most boys of my generation, I was an Army Cadet – I think I mentioned this earlier. Hard to believe now – i.e. that most of our schoolboys would routinely be trained in the art of war – but nevertheless true. (Some would later be sent to fight in Vietnam – usually against their will.) Did we learn a lot about the true nature of war? No, not a lot, it must be confessed. But, suddenly, the meagre knowledge that I had acquired in that particular seminar needed urgently to be summoned from the deepest recesses of my memory. The topic: Jungle Warfare. What did that ‘Reg’ (regular army officer) say again? I remember him well. He was very impressive – to me, at least. Tall and athletic, his crisp, tailored uniform was adorned with shiny brass buttons. (I could never get mine to shine like that – ‘Brasso’ simply didn’t do the trick. It later turned out that the regulars no longer needed to polish their buttons at all – they’d been anodised.) He said he’d served two tours of ‘Nam. (He was in his late twenties, I suppose.) He spoke with the confidence that commanding ‘fighting men’ gave to one – or so I supposed. But why on Earth was such an experienced soldier assigned to the menial task of lecturing school kids? I can safely assume it had nothing to do with the quality and military potential of the spotty-faced members of the audience.
