    Army v Navy 2010

    A very well deserved win by the matelot's. Ill discipline cost the Army in the end. The RN pre-interservices camp was well worth it. At least we were beaten by the Champions this year!!!! Will we ever be able to compete at this level again???

    RAF Cup Final

    Honington 6-0 up and absolutely stuffing Lyneham in the scrums. Lyneham pulled off one of their front row players who was allegedly "injured" and funnily enough had no front row replacements on the bench, therefore the match went to uncontested scrums and stopped honington's primary source of...

    Has it gone wrong?

    Beer, I agree entirely with the fact that if your hairmen & women turn up to work looking like a bag o' ****3 then its the supervisors that are at fault. Where are the SNCO's or are they just as bad????? I have previously had working parades, working blue parades or deliberately asked SAC X...

    New Fitters Course

    As Prop says its up to the management at the front line to stop any dross being returned for their FT courses. If you don't think they are good enough its up to you to have the balls to make a decision and stop their return. My bet is that there are very few people who will make that call and...

    Mediocre SAC F6000

    Ask the individual for a precis of his year. Get him to write down all of his achievements and what he has been up to. Ask him to provide any laudatory letters or letters of appreciation from his secondary duty OICs. I have not long returned from sitting on a board and the best written...

    The Sparky Badge

    I have recently been in discussion with a few Av type people reference the "Sparky" badge being made obsolete for TG1&2 personnel. Those who have it will retain it until you leave but in future it will only be awarded to TG 11 personnel involved in Comms work. Another piece of RAF Tradition...
