INCIDENT from
Langdale
Mountain Rescue Team
Report 1967.
A soldier on an initiative exercise, phoned Sid Cross in a panic. He did not know where he was; he had been going from Langdale to Borrowdale and the mist had come down and the sun was in the wrong place and he was starving and he was cold and wet and could Sid tell him where he was. Sid let him ramble on he was in a narrow valley, a tree was on his left, a big wall on his right, etc., Sid got tired of all this. Look man, he quietly told the sergeant, Will you what I tell you are you ready? Yes came the quiet weak reply, then said Sid, Look above the telephone, let your eyes drop slowly down to the phone, do you see the white disc on the phone what does it say? Oh, Ive got it, cried the boy soldier, Im in Wasdale.
