Graham-

According to Roy Palmer (I wasn't there!) "In Bloody Orkney" was composed first after those islands were garrisoned early in World War 2:

"The Ayrshire Yeomanry, having been stationed in Orkney, took the song on moving to Caithness in 1941 and used it as the basis for "Oh, Fucking Halkrik."

Some soldiers are just never satisfied where they are stationed, it would seem!

Cheerily,
