Talk:The Irresponsible Captain Tylor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Possible inspiration?
I wonder if Harry Paget Flashman was an inspiration for Captain Tylor? They both join the military as a way of shirking responsibility and figuring that it'd be the safest place to be. They also both recieve high honors and awards even though they've royally screwed up and had no clue what was going on as they tried to save their own skins.
[edit] ============================
No, Flashman was a cad! Tylor was more of an incredibly lucky idiot - bit like Maxwell Smart mixed with the casualness of Huckleberry Finn.
