(I wasn't flying them; they were supporting our ops). I've also posted (to the point of ad nauseum) how terrible our people (on this side of the pond, and the USAF in particular) are with casual attitudes towards OPSEC violations.
What's the problem of asking for a bit more clarity?
The 'fragment' was the first couple of sentences and gave the flavour of the article. The MoD spokesperson's response is entirely appropriate in this case.
