Networked Enhanced Capability
You know when senior officers and defence planners have run out of ideas when they start spouting mealy-mouthed phrases in a Gordon-Brown like fashion, with the knowledge that their audience will never believe them.
When was the last time a CAS was done for Sabotage?
Read CAS' memo, then re-read it, then read it again. Blimey, the RAF are in heap big trouble.
The reverse psychology works well in the accountant's classroom. Unfortunately, the same accountants are nowhere to be found when Bloggsy gets shot and dies due to them being half-way down the queue when Chest Armour was being handed out.
So, CAS' memo was meant to 'butter-us-up' for the next Defence White Paper. Call me old fashioned but will it mean the end of over-stretch or negligence?
The last senior officer who they couldn't convince just to 'nod' had to walk, but atleast he went with a clear concience.
Just glad that it's my last tour.
