Flash back to 88 or 89...GOC's. We all were lined up in front of the carriers (I was a troopie then), pitch black out. 7:30am, the old man shows up. Starts walking down the line, the BRSM walking behind the carriers to look at the kit. The general comes to our recce, which I believe was Sgt. (PO) Lockhart, and Cpl Gary Reddic. Gary is a big black fella, stood about 6'3" ish. General looks at Gary and askes: "You play football son?" Without skipping a beet, Gary answers: "Hell no sir, that's a white man's sport!"
The entire troop broke up laughing!
It was the best GOC we ever had!
