[EVERYTHING] parallel of how Jon treats olly to Ned treats Benjen

Everything

I decided to re-watch the six seasons again and i noticed that in the weirwood.net vision when a young Ned is training with his brother Benjen he tells him to 'keep your shield up or ill ring your head like a bell' this is the exact same phrase that Jon says to Olly when hes training him in season 5. Its a nice link to show the tough but loving attitude the Starks have and shows that its probably a saying passed down generations when training. Not sure if this has been talked about on here but i thought it was an interesting part.

I think it has been mentioned but it doesn't make it less interesting. :) I appreciate the continuity between those scenes.
