Hi Everyone

For the pugilists among you here are the rules of 'Milling' the famous Achnacarry boxing exercise which became quite an ordeal by most accounts.

This document was sent to me by Henry Brown OBE as he knew my dad was a boxer.

This is the Original Document from 1940's

Regards
John M

Do not speak.....unless it improves on Silence.

A good teacher opens the door.....you must enter yourself.

Thanks for this document John. Now posted in the Commando Training album:

God and the Soldier, all men adore, In time of danger and not before.
When the danger is passed and all things righted, God is forgotten, and the Soldier slighted.

Many thanks for this, having milled on P Company it brought back a few good (retrospective) memories.

I had to laugh at para 9.f.9.
