He never even had to do PT or take the semi-annual APFT? What about annual weapons qualification? NBC training? Land navigation?
I wasn't combat arms either but still had to do all the above, and I'll bet he had to do at least the PT and weapons qualification.
i dunno, he never mentioned any of that and he complained about everything. he was awfully institutionalized.....
My real email address *again*. Geez... :(

No, originally architects and engineers in the English speaking part of the world worked in fractions of an inch to the foot...1/16":1',
1/8":1', 3/16":', 1/4":1', etc.
I saw one on TV last night, 2 presenters brought their new cars in to the studio, a Ford GT - which the new owner was licking, and a Morgan.
Everyone British knows about this, for everyone else
Programme - Top Gear
Ford GT owner Jeremy Clarkson
Morgan owner Richard Hammond
Probably the best car programme ever done!
The student I knew definately worked in 1/100 and similar scales - perhaps it was easier to draw 1/100 of a metre!
I saw that too.. I like Quentin Wilson too, although i didnt as i always thought he was a stuck up ponce off tv, but in real life hes a honest one of the lads type of guys.

Aah. MY house's original drawing was made 1:100. Nearly all drafts I make and see (all sorts of) are made ten-based and not twelve-based - but I've grown up and live in DIN-land (located in a civilized region of ol'Europe) and am not "inching around bare-foot"...
