Shame you couldn't find a CCF or Air Cadets to join, similar stuff to what you did only with bigger guns and thunderflashes. nitexes etc with the local TA, attacking Brize Norton in November, woz our fun.
We didn't get too afflicted with drill, it was a school squadron so the instructors were the teachers and had all been in the war or at least done National Service. If they gave us a tough time they knew they would have to look us in the eye the following day.
But as drill wasn't made too much of, we did it proper when we had to. I even was part of the continuity drill squad which was brill. Showing off to the parents on open days.
Even did the reverse arms funeral drill for one of our teachers who died and had his funeral in the school chapel. He'd been quite senior in the RAF.

This is my cap. There are many like it but this one is mine. My cap is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my cap is useless. Without my cap I am useless. I must wear my cap true. I must wear straighter than my enemy, who is trying to kill me. I must cap him before he caps me. I will. Before God I swear this creed: my cap and myself are defenders of my country, we are the masters of my enemy, we are the saviours of my life. So be it, until there is no enemy, but peace. Amen. May the cap be with you...
