We were supposed to learn swimming in the army. I can swim in other ways, it was not a big problem, but the teacher had it in his.mind to teach everyone this most common way in Norway. So, I had to try. And he was not the kind to give up. And the more he struggled, the more determined he became. Finally I was alone in the pool and everyone was up watching me hoping that at least one of them could figure out what I was doing wrong. The swimming teacher finally gave up... And so did the others too. He did not want to talk about it after that.
