Well done for using a dictionary this time Yorkie.

Heretic just means, an unbeliver or non-conformist. But it gets dressed up lots more by the Christian churches into something bigger.
Muslims would say, Infidel instead.

But don't go OTT on this, I only meant that you're supposed to like cadet APC things.

Map and compass is not my favorite subject, but it means a lot when out on the field. Without it cadets would be walking into minefields and lakes.

You need to know M & C - You never know when you might be out with an officer.

Action to avoid this happening - Take the map off the officer.

No, I'm proof that they don't.

Only the weak allow themselves to get brainwashed by Sandhurst.

The strong still wear jeans, drink Stella and party hard!

And mapread!

May be not.

But in the ACF every officer is advised to have a cadet attached to the bottom of it.
