GeeRam, you and me both! Targets are something that we used to attack (with varied results!). Personnel, of whatever trade, are those best suited/qualified for the job and it does not matter what race, colour or creed they are if they meet this criterion and take the oath! One of my best mates was a Trinidadian navigator, that was in 1962, not many around then but he entered in the same way as any other aircrew officer and was brilliant in all ways! (Don't often say that about navs!!) Thre is something seriously amiss at present and I can only think it stems from the very top!!
