It's only nonsense to those who see themselves as some sort of sky gods. Of course everyone is involved in delivering air power, if the jet isn't fuelled the bomb isn't delivered, if the pilot isn't fuelled the bomb isn't delivered etc etc. You just don't like people having a different view to yourself. I've be in the RAF 37 years this year, apart from a few TACOS that were quite good, the RAF is a much better place to work in and is just as professional as it ever was. I was a FAC/JTAC for quite a while, heavily involved in the bangy bit of air power delivery, before you accuse me of knowing nothing.
