During a practical exercise at a military police base,
the instructor was giving the class instruction in
unarmed self- defense.
After he presented a number of different situations
in which they might find themselves, he asked a
student, "What steps would you take if someone
were coming at you with a large, sharp knife?"
The student replied, "BIG ones."

The bear was enjoying his freedom for about3 weeks before being captured
some 20stone (280 lbs)lighter. He was taken as guest of honour back to the
Sgts Mess and rehydrated with copius amounts of amber nectar. we even have
the piccies of a slimmed down Hercules to prove it, along with one of
Hercules nursing a hangover.
