I saw Wratten at work, in Bahrain, in a pre-sortie briefing during the 1991 Gulf War. He was a good example of a highly dislikeable, self-interested, pompous ass. To find out much later, after this tragic Mull of Kintyre event, that he also had a metaphorically close interest in visual examination of his lower colon, came as no surprise. 🙄
