  I was a U.S.Marine from 1990-96. I believe in 1992?🤔 we went to Perth Australia. Every port we went to we were NOT to wear our uniforms. In Perth we were ordered to wear our uniforms because it was a “friendly” port. <br>The locals were so good to us. They had a huge welcoming party at a function center near the pier. They were very patriotic and it was explained that the population was thankful for the Marines actions against the Japanese in WW2. I was very humbled by that. I have NEVER heard anything but great things about the Aussies and the SAS in particular. We were there for Anzac’s day?? I think it’s what they called it. Anyway we were all bummed out when we had to get back on ship and sail away. It was a great port and a great time. Australians are great people and this guy seems like one of the best.

  You should lead with the fact that this man has passed and that this interview was from 2004

  Only a certified hard bastard can start a sentence with &apos;&apos;And the next helicopter crash i was in...&apos;&apos; &nbsp;completely deadpan like he was talking about what he had for lunch last Monday. ANZACS and the &nbsp;Gurkhas consistently punched well above their weight and seem to be universally respected by allies and feared by the enemy. Thanks for sharing your story Charles.

  I love the considered answers to questions about operations. As an Englishman I see the same with SAS members from Hereford. They don’t give away intricate details. Calm relaxed. Charles is a man you want on your side in a pub scrap!
