one thing is certain...sometimes words cannot convey the horror....my friends and i were waiting to be called up for the falklands and were on stanby for the whole thing...i think they wanted us to be the dads army and man the barracks in the uk...when word came that it was over we all went for a meal to celebrate...a police officer came in and informed a friend that his son had just been reported KIA ... what can be worse...
