No I don't think it is - RIAT not an RAF gig for one thing!

As for the not saying anything at all....

Would I be right in thinking that every-time there is a happy clappy statement from UK military and its top echelons we should reach for the union jack and stand to attention?

What happens when we know it is bollax that is being sprouted? Or at least subjects that are multiple shades of grey are explained in the extreme rosiest light?
