Like any parents, mine wanted me to have a secure job with a regular wage and career prospects. And the one job my father knew of, that he'd had experience of himself, was the army, so he could help me in that direction.

I've got the best job in the world.

I try to read everything that I can about myself because Saddam Hussein didn't read his reviews and he thought he was winning!

Space is tight inside a tank: very close confines, and you're permanently banging. Like in Brad Pitt's new movie 'Fury' - the clanking of metal is all you hear.

My fuel for my fire is to be able to provide for my family.

If you walk down the street and see someone in a box, you have a choice. That person is either the other and you're fearful of them, or that person is an extension of your family. And that makes you at home in that world and not fearful. So really it's very self-serving.

In the Dolezal family, you couldn't always count on your parents to keep you safe.

Spending time with my family is very high-rated. It's what I really like to do on my holidays.
