Interesting post.
It's all to do with the Dali Lama Syndrome and the Halo Complex!
Today's 'Andrew' must have changed. In my day, Betty Windsor owned six flat tops, the Fleet Air Arm was king, aircrew (some of whom went on to reach Flag rank) were the supreme beings and other, lesser mortals knew their place. We never bagged our colleagues (unless it was a certain AEW sqn whose members were alleged to indulge in 'conduct unbecoming' with each other) - but 'fish-heads' (especially 'goonery' officers with liquorice legs), 'plumbers' (except sqn engineers), Royal Marines, educators, 'pussers', particularly catering officers, all other general service types in dark blue who took themselves too seriously, and, of course cr@bfat, were fair game.
And we could fly the pants off ANY competition!
