Back in my Army days a group of us did some GDing at Orange for their Company Dining In Night. Basically a formal dinner and everyone gets on the piss after. We were being waiters and running the bar for it. One of our boys in the post dinner piss up wrote himself off pretty badly. We were just staying at the depot, so pretty much crashing outside in a sleeping bag.In my day you just drew dicks with permanent marker on someone's face if they went to the bench early during a bender.
Bonus points for fine liner on the eye lids.
Next morning our young hero was still pretty much unconscious, so out came the textas and he had enough dicks on his face to make Riley Reid blush. We had a Unimog picking us up 6.30am to take us back home and he was just tossed in the back. Our driver was kind enough to stop at Lithgow Maccas on the way home and old mate had stirred by then. For anyone that has been to Lithgow Macca at around 8.00 am on a Saturday morning can attest to how packed it is. In he goes to grab a muffin and a hash brown and cant understand the reactions he was getting. Eventually he goes into the bathroom and sees his face in the mirror. I can still hear the howls of anguish.
The rest of us all got fined our pay from doing the GD work as we were all in uniform, worth every cent though.
