But there are times when suddenly you realise you're nearer the end than the beginning.
I don't suppose I've been at home more than ten months in all that time. Tomorrow it will be 28 years to the day that I've been in the service. Not a gang of slaves, but soldiers, British soldiers, Clipton, even in captivity. And I hope that the people that use this bridge in years to come will remember how it was built and who built it. It's essential that they should take a pride in their job. We'll show them what the British soldier is capable of doing.It's going to be a proper bridge. It isn't going to be easy, but fortunately, we have the means at hand, the bridge.We can teach these barbarians a lesson in Western methods and efficiency that will put them to shame. Thanks to the Japanese, we now command a rabble. I tell you, gentlemen, we have a problem on our hands.
