    "On The Left"-Sisters In Arms:
    I wear my medals
    I wear my medals
    I wear my medals on the left
    (Army Verse)
    Tank Commander 1st AR
    In an M1A1 Abrams on a live fire battle run
    A sixty tonne hull of steel,
    The king of the battlefield
    In the Mount Bundy northern Sun
    The turret spins, the target found
    The big gun shakes the ground
    In the noise and dust the job is done
    I’m in the Army and I’ve made the grade
    I’ve served my country in the 1st Brigade
    (chorus)
    And I wear my medals on the left
    I proudly wear my medals on the left
    I served with pride
    And because they’re mine
    I wear my medals on the left
    I wear them on the left
    (Navy Verse)
    HMAS Adelaide was ordered out to intercept
    A drug ship in the seven seas
    We tracked the target out of sight
    Under the horizon line
    And we set off the LHD
    The RHIBs were launched into a storm
    Choppers rose into the dawn
    We took that whaler by surprise
    The Navy is a part of me
    I served my country on the sea
    (chorus)
    And I wear my medals on the left
    I proudly wear my medals on the left
    I served with pride
    And because they’re mine
    I wear my medals on the left
    I wear them on the left
    (Air Force Verse)
    I’m an officer cadet
    I’m strapped into a PC9
    Training at 2FTS
    Pre flight checks and master switch
    Throttle up the engine kicks
    I’m off off runway 1-8 Left
    10,000 feet the world below
    Up into a loop I go
    I’m on the top and on my way
    Got my wings I learned to fly
    I served my country in the sky
    (Chorus)
    And I wear my medals on the left
    I proudly wear my medals on the left
    I served with pride
    And because they’re mine
    I wear my medals on the left
    I proudly wear my medals on the left (Ooooooh)
    I served with pride
    We were side by side
    I wear my medals on the left
    I wear them on the left
    Whooo!

    G'day everyone thanks for watching. I have a bad habit of getting overly ambitious with video ideas, which results in me making monster projects that take months to complete like this one. I edit for love of the game, and enjoy it as a creative outlet, however video's of this length sadly are not sustainable with the demands of the real world. Perhaps there may come a day where I can focus exclusively on CZcams content, but that time is not now. Accordingly, I'll likely return to making shorter (sub 15 minute) videos as this channel moves forward. My deepest gratitude for spending your valuable time watching these creations. Many thanks, -K

    33:40 the Mad Minute started with the Lee Enfield rifle in WWI because the comparably short 303 allowed for the bolt to come back without smacking your face so you could cycle it real quick and thus you would use your middle finger to pull the trigger whilst madly cycling the bolt through a 10 round mag (the standard at the time was 5) which gave the enemy the impression that the Brits were suppressing with Automatic fire.
    I do love the evolution of it becoming a brawl though haha very Aussie.

    Wow - some real gems amongst that lot. Noting my service occurred during a protracted period of relatively little operational activity for the ADF (1977-96), anyone with active service medals were relatively unique. I would therefore like to add to the ancestry of 'Crusty'. In my era 'crusty' was a term liberally applied for any still serving Vietnam Vets or anyone essentially over the age of 35, there was no specific or implied negative reference to Warrant Officers. Another term regularly used was 'Carl Gustav' (anti-armour weapon) - soldiers would give this name to one-night-stand partners - later the partner would ring the base looking for this soldier - much banter in the guard room when you received these calls. P.S. To anyone out there 40-50s named Carl - no I am not your dad!

      I served around the same time 77-86. I forget how many times sheilas would ring the Guard Room asking for 'Brett, he's a helicopter pilot..." We didn't have dolphin trainers in my day. Me and my mate whitey did the helicopter pilot thing one Friday night only to have our dates turn up at the Open Day on Sunday... while we operated the hand tool stand demonstrating how engineers use long handled shovels and mattocks.... Not very glamourous and sadly the last time we saw either of the two Debs.

    I used to work for a DSTG research centre and got to see the whole ADF's logistics, acquisition, operation and culture from the top down and it was the wildest job of my career. The army was always my favourite, I love the people I met from army engineering corps the most, they were so jaded and wise despite all being probably under 25? 😅

    The Mad Cow was originally Langs Tavern, home of 1RAR. Almost went broke when we deployed to Somalia. The classic Liver Buster was the drink of the day mid 90’s, 5shots of white spirits, plus a colour of your choice, in a beer mug, ice and lemonade. Blue Curacao was the favourite, being 1RAR of course.

    the mad minute was adopted as a result of the boer war, it's why you have a 10 round magazine and can operate the bolt of an SMLE while keeping a sight picture. It was a famous tactic of commonwealth forces in WW1.

    I left the job in 1986 and while there are numerous new terms, it is heartening to see so much I knew and held dear lives on with our current crop of diggers. People often berate our Gen Zs and Millennials but I remind them we were berated when we were their age and it was BS then and it's BS now. Anyone who signs on the dotted line and enlists escapes the inglorious end known as being a civy. great work, liked and subbed.

    As somebody that is apart of the AAC [Australian Army Cadets] I can say that doing emu bobs around Irwin Barracks or other places suck, mainly because if you have dumb recruits that think its a race and then your warrant officer would keep making us go back to restart. I have done them quite a few times and the best part is when you are finally done. But a clean place is better than a dirty place anyway just tell those people that its not a race, they would say to you "Go as fast as the worlds slowest man" to give you an idea that you dont go super slow but you dont go super fast.
