Shoot! One of my platoon sergeants back in 85 had served eight years in the British Army, then followed his wife stateside and joined the US Army. Nothing like a thick Welch accent on the radio to have the rest of the troop going "whatd'fuck did he say?"
And yes he had a ton of "Jones the Soldier, Jones the Butcher, Jones the Spy" jokes!
As well as several "Jones and the sheep" that had us straights wondering about what was going on back in them there hills at night!
