    Turkey Teeth

    Bit like the old adage of getting sunburn as being self inflicted, did anyone get charged for it though. But becoming medically unfit due to bodge it, dodge it and scarper Turkey style may have some impact.

    Joining the RAF in 1981 at age 16.5 and joining now 2024....How has it changed?

    We used to work 4 on 4 off so arranged visits as a watch. Based in Norfolk and traveled to Kinloss for experience flights around 1984, well before all this gubbins on H+S, we just a decent boss who signed it all off, warrants and all.

    New Falklands medal

    Great idea, it'll never get off the ground for being to logical. I know guys who have done rather a few FI dets, I take it you get only one, this is the MOD by the way.

    I joined in Mar 1980, IIRC id id not take me long for interview to trouser drop to rail warrant in hand. The way I see it, back in the day it was a career, today it's a Monday to Friday job. Camps are empty on a weekend and a lack of camaraderie due to single rooms. Is there still beer calls...

    And something tells me they will be allowed to roam free and take advantage of the fillies while the stallions are away fighting.

    Veteran's ID card - E-Petition

    Coming to eBay when our little Asian friends get hold on one. The Walts will be in their element. Personally I don't see an advantage, civvies rarely recognise vets even with the covenant.
