I never considered the rules of engagement. That was the skipper’s job. He led, we followed. Actually we couldn’t do anything else.

I’ve answered your questions even if you had to ask one twice. So how about you answering mine? Or is that too awkward to answer – hence ignore it.

Would you like to relate your experiences on a warship? I’m all agog.
I think you know the answer to that. I was in the Army and was actually on active service whilst in Malaya and have medals to prove it.
I am not the one who relates to experiences in 'War Games' and exercises in the Services.
You would be the first one to question a post if the subject matter was unclear.
I will put it another way. Have you ever been on active service?
