Off direct topic, but related to the Tudor.
The only occasion I know of a Serviceman being charged with "Spreading alarm and despondency" was because of the Tudor. As we know, it was banned from passenger carriage but during the Suez operation at least one was used to carry troops into Aden. One of our Squadron members was a keen aviation buff and, unfortunately, alcoholic. Dozing through the post lunch session he heard the unmistakeable pop and crackle of the Merlins and went to investigate. Unforfunately, he then made it his business to loudly inform the (in transit) pongos that their aircraft was 'unsuitable'. Pleas from the Movements Officer to retract had no effect and he was duly charged. The, somewhat nervous, passengers went on to Nairobi and our hero was 'reduced to the ranks'.
