Interesting proverb mon le petit.Eat when you can
Shit when you can
Drink when you can
Pish when you can
Work if you want ,(or have to)
Sleep when you can
Fight if you have to
Win if you can
Survive if you want to
Post if you must
Shut the fucque up if you can
Dusa,
It is always refreshing to read your pearls of wisdom.
As a point of interest only 7 out of 100 after PRMC obtain our Coveted Green Beret. The rest drop by the wayside. Our Mod Joe won his Green Beret with the Brit Army prior to joining the FFL. Hat tipped to him.
Once more we are rehashing old posts. My heroes as posted above in sarcasm were Martin Scott and Loustic.
When are you going ? As you know I am 80 next b/day. So I read your posts with ever increasing wonder.
Chas. To quote Sinatra; "I did it my way".
If I may give you some advice If rowing to France is your intended way of travelling, get a plane to England and then all that you have left to do is row the Manche.One day you will thank me for this piece of advice.ANYWAY STILL PLANNING ON THE JOURNEY EVEN IF IT MEANS ROWING A BOAT...
THANKS FOR YOUR WISDOM,,AND ADVICE.I guess I could eat once a week and sleep outside, but wouldn't call that comfortable at all.
I know you want to show how tough you are, but eating just once a week before selection isn't good idea especially for someone who had 3 meals a day until that moment. That would be shock for body and one would feel very weak.
Are you sure you don't meant once a day instead of week? I mean there is no need for such extreme behavior. If someone really don't have money for food I'm sure he can found some leftovers somewhere. Much better than to eat just once a week.
As for rowing a boat. Legion won't take you if you came to country illegally. I don't know what is policy towards asylum seekers, but even if FFL taking those men they probably have to have their asylum granted.
CANT YOU JUST EAT ONCE A WEEK,,,,,ANYWAY STILL PLANNING ON THE JOURNEY EVEN IF IT MEANS ROWING A BOAT...
Yeah, well is not the ideal, in fact there a few books that talk only about the History of Military nutrition. How they went from "Ok, find your food or die" to "It looks like food, but is not actually" to finally "Hey here is your MRE, it will fullful your daily diet"
Actually even Romans had very well organized feeding of their troops. It's far from "Ok, find your food or die". It's pretty impressive when you read how many of Roman inventions are still used in armies today.Basically army's are still organized by system introduced by Romans. Some later armyes did not do quite well
Check a bit more of the history in the Military nutrition. It was not always a very well organized feeding.. In fact sometimes keeping the supply of food was not easy. or not posible for some armies.Actually even Romans had very well organized feeding of their troops.

This has nothing to do with the Topic, but now that you did mention TEA. Is it true, that if you accept to drink a cup of tea with a British then you have to take a second one or it will taken as a disrespect.. This is something that my grandfather used to say, i just find hard to belive it.The British Army marches on stomach and its tea.
