Ahhhh but the inspecting officer is only a subaltern....A most junior officer...

In fact I would be giving the subbie an interview with hat and without coffee to discuss his posture and attitude towards the soldiery...Where is his Sgt with his notebook???!!!

Jail him Sgt Major!!!!

 :P :P
One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.
