Ann over-size infantry battalion is in the field, during our humid Aussie Summer.
And, as usual the HQ Company's Assault-Pioneer platoon has built/dug plenty of long-drop karzis, two per infantry company. Avec stripped-log seats and upright-cross-pole bog-paper holders, but failed to provide the usual large empty pine-apple tin covers for same. As the platoon's evening meal had not yet been eaten.
It doesn't even have to rain, as over-night-dew will soften up the bog-paper.
Sudden shortage of bog-paper, for just one morning, leads to near-mutiny, as tired, smelly, sweaty 'diggers' resort to whatever does the job. Mostly their own nasal-tissue packs! or their own roll of bog-paper.
Assault Pioneer platoon Sgt has meeting with OC HQ Coy, and Assault platoon looie! Sgt drives LWB Land-rover and trailer to nearest town, with cheque book.
When he returns large pineapple tins - are - in place. Bn ate pineapples for brekky.
The name of said SGT is a WAG for y'all.
