THIS SOLDIER DRINKS ON DUTY ... BUT HE'S NEVER LEFT FEELING GRUFF THE NEXT DAY
Holyhead, Anglesey and Bangor Mail

Lance Corporal Shenkin used to eat two cigarettes a day, but now sticks to downing a pint of Guinness
Every soldier knows the dire consequences of being found drinking on duty. But one bearded Lance Corporal parading in Bangor later this month has been excused any disciplinary action.
For this one is a goat and part of his official daily army rations is a daily pint of Guinness!
As the Regimental Goat of the 1st Battalion, Royal Welsh, Lance Corporal Shenkin the Goat will be given his traditional daily pint before heading an illustrious parade.
Shenkin will lead the spectacular Bangor city centre parade with 200 uniformed army and RAF personnel on May 29 as part of the city’s marking of its 1,500th year of foundation.
