Be the Best – Motto of the British Army
I am not yet over the lurgy, but must be getting there because I was incensed to hear that Government advisors believe the Army motto “Be the Best” is elitist and non inclusive – and should be dropped! Now I am no warmonger but my grandfather served in the Black Watch Vets in WW I, and I have a niece currently serving in the Royal Artillery who I am proud of. The Army should be elitist, so should doctors, postpeople and farmers – we should all try to be the best we can in whatever field we work or serve. Nice to have a rant again, especially on Christmas Eve! And those Government advisors should be sacked forthwith….
