| One of our adventure training jaunts was to Corsica. We had to postpone several times until Corsican Liberationists quietened down. Everywhere we went we could see evidence they were not a happy lot. Burned out cars driven over cliffs, bullet holes in just about every road sign. We even met one bloke riding a donkey, sheepskin waistcoat and rifle on his back. I kid you not - thought it was Anthony Quinn lol.
Ajaccio was different. Big limos and dark glasses smelled mafiosa.
Good trip though. Anyone from HQ 24 Missile on here who remembers it? 1974. | |
