Christopher Robin,
I would have been what you might call an "older member of the RAF". I do know the details of the incident, more than you appear to know yourself. I read the newspaper reports at the time and later, the BOI report. I also know the unfortunate person in question and he told me his side of the story.
To post a distorted view of the incident like you have done is bad enough, but to subsequently attempt to categorise your mention of the incident as banter for the purpose of "injecting some humour" is really quite appalling.
You do your own Service no good.
