    Left or Right

    Gentlemen

    Just a quick one - ceremonial daggers - were then worn on the left or the right? Particulary Heer

    The left.

    At Rathau on the Aller, the CO of 5th Royal Tanks advanced on foot to take a cautious look into the town before his tanks moved in. He encountered one of his own officers, a huge Welshman named John Gwilliam who later captained his country's rugby team, 'carrying a small German soldier by the scruff of his neck, not unlike a cat with a mouse.' The Colonel said: 'Why not shoot him?' Gwilliam replied in his mighty Welsh voice: 'Oh no, sir. Much too small.'

      Nothing to do with being left or right handed?

        Nope, always the left.
