Also with PCB being surrounded by Army, Navy & Airforce bases, having us work there made it easier to deal with the hot headed wannabe legs, more so than the few civilians that worked with us.

man, no disrespect but that is just absolute rubbish. being a squaddie does make anyone 'all that' and any more superior at this job

x2...I've had my fair share of problems while working the clubs with military guys...For example: "I can cut the line...I just got back from Iraq..here's my military ID"
or..."No I don't have to leave this club, I'm in the army."

I've seen a lot of military guys act like assholes, and I've seen a lot of non-military guys act like assholes. I've worked with ex-military guys and normal juiceheads. The bottom line is: If you're tough, you're tough. If you're brave, you're brave. if you're level headed, you're level headed. Military or career background has nothing to do with it.
