Yeah, I remember the school services. My History teacher freaked out when she found out I was an active reservist, and decided that I had to participate and take part in the ceremony in full dress uniform. She even phoned my unit to demand it.
At that point, I hadn't told a lot of people what I did, I just kind of vanished on weekends and during the summer for exercises. I don't know why I was secretive about it.
So there I was in full dress uniform with a couple of kids who were sea and army cadets. Then I ended up spending the rest of the day in uniform after receiving instructions from my unit to stay in uniform all day.
