"I left school and I wanted to be a Military Police officer in the Army, and I went for my initial interview, but I was 5'3" and at that time you had to be at least 5'5" to join the Military Police. They asked if I'd like to join as something else, but I had my heart set on the Military Police, so I didn't join. It's quite a good thing now, but at the time I was very upset."
