It may have been a long time ago but I am still extremely proud of the fact I served and during that time received two promotions and two service medals even if my service was not particularly distinguished. I do often look back as it being probably the happiest period of my life even though it had quite a lot of downs as well as ups | |||

"This subject often comes up. I know a lot of guys, myself included, are attracted to guys in uniform. Also attracted to military type guys e.g. fit bodies, smart, short haircuts etc. However ex military can be a different matter. Nearly 35 years since I left the army. Still have a military style haircut and still upright but my body is no longer that of the fit young soldier it once was." You never leave His Majesty’s service.

He simply stops paying you (apart from the pension, thanks for that This is very true. Serving in the armed forces is not a job. It's a way of life, and if you are in there any length of time [say more than 2 or 3 years] and enjoy it, you become conditioned to it. Not a bad thing either. Incidentally I don't go to reunions and the closest I come to anything militarily these days is attending a war memorial service on Nov 11th. | |||

Wouldn't it be more constructive to offer the explanation rather than be dismissive in derogatory tones ? | |||

I often wonder if any of the guys I had fun with were also serving but it was often to dark to recognise anyone.

"I served. I was infantry and managed to get myself into all the hotspots of the day. The day I left, I left it all behind. I then served Her Majesty under another uniform for many years. I never quite understood the guys who defined themselves by their military service. It was as if they had nothing other than those few years to hang their personality on. Perhaps I’m odd, but the whole fetishisation of military personnel makes me queasy. Vans, trucks and bodies plastered with Lest We Forget, poppies and silhouettes of the war apparatus. ‘Thank you for your service’ written in comments under some equally queasy meme on Facebook. I take myself away quietly somewhere on armistice and think of my time and others. I don’t need or want others involved. It’s a quiet time for my reflection, not performative. Dulce et Decorum est. The old lie. " | |||

"Ex Navy. Ron Hill with yellow side flash and blue Helly Hansen long sleeve top. " You are doing well, if you still have the physique to get away with an HH Lifa top! The thinnest material yet often too warm. The HH Teddy bear fleece, with the thumb holes and 2 pockets. Nothing else. Still the best fleece! Car was broken into while I was on Spearhead. HH fleece and my Gabardine smock...ffs. | |||

"Massive fan of retro/vintage ronhill tracksters…not a member of the ex-servicemen group, just keen to hear from anyone who has tales to tell or even better, a pair of RHs still in possession" More Miles do a good cheaper modern day version. If you want to sit on the settee, fiddling with your nuts. We had a religious patriotic QMSI at our unit. Someone turned up in a pair of Union Jack Ron Hill shorts. Co's run kind of thing. They were actually bought on camp, in the Regimental PRI. Fair to say he went purple with rage. Entertaining. | |||
