I think they were the sort that went there or to prison I'm afraid.
I have to say they always treated me with the utmost respect.
Talking about unruly British soldiers, I think the problem is they are indeed trained to kill and well, but Cyprus is used for R&R. All these pent up Testosterones need an outlet.

Just like training a Pit-bull and expect it to lie all day like a pussy cat.
Yes I agree the British Army is well trained and one of the most effective armies in active service. But who will control the male hormones.
