"Every day is a school day on Cold War Conversations". How true! A great conversation to listen to over a coffee and a couple of drinks on a Saturday afternoon. Thank you to all who contributed to this!
I met Dag at TankFest a few years ago whilst I was serving as a Challenger 2 tank commander, (I believe he mentioned that conversation in the first episode he appeared in), we had some great conversations and it really opened my eyes to how similar tank commanders think, despite serving on different vehicles, in different armies years apart. I think many young tank commanders and soldiers today should really take value in speaking to those who serve in other nations. A lot of lessons can be learned. Absolutely loved this episode, always look forward to listening to cold war conversations.
Fantastic stuff; my heartfelt thanks to those involved. A thousand views only is preposterous. People are sleeping on these things. All the best of luck going forward and thanks again.

I’m always learning from my guests. I’m glad you enjoyed the episode. Thanks for your kind words.
That laughter, about being out after hours in the back endnof nowhere - that speaks volumes.
Excellent content. Thank you once again Ian.
Np, my pleasure!
Dag is magnificent and another excellent vlog. Informative, educational and enlightening.
Glad you enjoyed it

44:00 Astounding
Sqn bar, 1979 - a bottle of Keo - 125 mils - less than 12.5 p.
Keo brandy cost less than the local cola that you mixed it with.
Heady days, I think.
This blinking German speaks English better than I do - A LOT.
Imagine, an interview with a British Army NCO of the conscript era.
Then compare.
I wonder why they closed the comments on the Baldwin interview,!
Really.
Let us see how long this comment stays up.
Ironically, it's unlikely the British army would have accepted me; l am proudly "ideologically dodgy."
Most of us were, when sober.
