    Gunners and stable belts (and a possibly confused older bloke)...

    So, odd question... did Regiment types ever, on the rare occasion they had to wear working blue with jersey, wear their stable belts over the jumper like some army regiments do? And, do they ever nowadays? Was chatting with an ex-RAF bod about Regiment 'differences' and he said he was adamant...

    Lot's of 'I'm joining the Auggies' threads recently?

    More than usual, anyway? Does this mean that the recruiting drive is working? Were the nay-sayers wrong? Is the revolution here? :PDT_Xtremez_17: (maybe not that last one...)

    Helping local cadets.

    Hi folks, Wacking this one in here because I'm looking for a more auggie-centric view, but understand if it gets moved... Confession time: I was a Spacey myself for a million years and I've been asked a few times since I left to help my old squadron out with the odd thing ie: driving cadets...

    Prince Harry - wearing a Regt TRF?

    Saw this photo over on ARRSE. Is that an RAF Regiment flash on HRH's arm, above his Household Div blue red blue?

    Are the majority of Auxiliaries being properly prepared for Halton?

    Being a sproggy auggie type,* it's not a very long time ago that I was at RAF Halton doing my fifteen days training. Prior to going I spent three weekends with my squadron being equipped and covering GSK and drill. To my mind, that works out as pretty much a month's worth of basic training...

    RAuxAF Tie?

    Ok, you can call me sad if you want to, but... Is there such a thing as a RAuxAF 'regimental' tie? There's obviously an RAF one and an RAF Regiment one, I've seen them for RAF Police and Air Gunners and Techies and even a sort of zig-zaggy one for RAFVR, but I've never seen an auggie one. I...
