I have found this thread to be very exciting to read. Not boring at All.Thanks Ben, I'll miss it.
I'm not sure if I would approach a guy on the street to quiz him. I do remember being mortified once in Kingston when I was waiting in an A&P checkout (th eexpress line) and a CFB Kingston soldier was at the cash. Another guy who clearly outranked him, just walked up and started to dress him down. Yelled at him for a good 5 mins in front of everybody because he did not have his beret with him. I felt so badly. Especially when some of the Queen's students in the lineup started to yell at the officer for 1) making a spectacle and 2) for delaying the express checkout because the officer just hunkered down like a bulldog and berated that poor beret-less soldier even more...
