I didn't know that Rambahadur Limbu VC had been at Kai Tak O-D. I do remember one Ghurka commissioned officer (as opposed to QGO) who lived in the mess for a while. He had an incredibly posh Sandhurst accent and must have thought we grammar school boys were terrible oiks!
I would NEVER salute Diane Abbott - whatever the penalty.
You've missed the point, Arfur. You're not saluting her, but her appointment, and by extension the monarch.
