I really love Kipling's stories, but I haven't read his poems yet. I will give them a try though, which works have that poem in them?

You'll find it in Barrack-Room Ballads (the second series, 1896)

It is old enough to be on Project Gutenberg's inventory.

I highly reccommend Kipling's poems.
They are much more evocative of life in Victoria's Army than his fiction.

I suppose it is, but I didn't expect us to be here so long, so I set each rank rather low expecting that it wouldmake each one attainable without spamming, however the gap between each rank increases as you go up ;}

Dorking's a small town (is it a market town?) in the shadow of Box Hill.

I couldn't possibly speculate on what Herr Dok might have meant, though Wink
