I haven't read Flashman in years. They were great fun. I'll have to revisit "Flash" again.
Fraser also wrote other books that poke fun at military life. I could relate to some of the characters.
The General Danced at Dawn (1970)
McAuslan in the Rough (1974)
The Sheikh and the Dustbin (1988)
Hi cw3pa, in this world of unconstrained political correctness Flash is a breath of fresh air
