Episode 5: Meet Steve Black – The Man, The Myth, The Walking Admin Error

This week, the mic turns to The Muster Point’s co-host and Royal Tank Regiment veteran, Steve Black—a man with more Army stories than sense and a record of chaos that’s somehow still impressive. Stu (ex-Royal Engineer) takes the lead to dig into Steve’s military past: the good, the bad, and the absolutely baffling.

Expect real veteran stories, tankie banter, and reluctant confessions as Steve opens up about life in and out of uniform.

🪖 Inside This Episode:

• Who is Steve Black? – His military journey, his “tagline,” and his take on first days in green
• Tales from a Tankie – Deployments, disasters, and drunken debriefs
• Listener Q&A – No question too awkward (unfortunately for Steve)
• Muckers Remembered – A tribute to the ones we lost
• Bravo Zulu Spotlight – Commonwealth War Graves Commission
• The Muster Quiz – Can Steve survive Stu’s savage military trivia?
