RAF Swinderby, Jul/Aug 79, and our entry is off to the Catterick training area for a weeks camping, known as MFT. Arrive on site, build tents and dig latrines etc, first nights food, a stew, supplied in hot boxes that had come all the way from Swinderby at 45mph in 4 tonner with rest of convoy. Trouble is, hot boxes came with an added bonus bug... cue lots of running about in the dark and full latrine trenches overnight and a visit from the Swinderby MO with 'Immodium' in a jab format for 180 airmen. Yours truly, and one of the DI staff had declined the stew the night before, and only had mashed potato, so we didn't suffer, but we weren't popular next day.
