“One thing I’ve learned in the military is that even though we all wear the green a soldier is never socially colour blind. You are judged by your merits, by your behaviour and the way you represent your organisation, your unit and your fellow soldiers. Not your background. The enemy will kill indiscriminately therefore one cannot afford to be socially prejudice; such is the nature of the beast. How ironic is it that the Army life should offer more social equality and acceptance than the civilian world.”
