Hi all,
after some frantic researching, it would appear that the initial concerns over the memorial attendance were caused by good old fashioned chinese whispers.
However... the bottom line is that I was wrong. Perhaps I should have done a little more digging than I initially did.
I accept full responsibility for my post and would therefore like to offer full and unreserved apologies to the following:
The Ministry of Defence
7 Squadron - in particular, HPT
Anyone whose blood pressure was raised by reading the post.
Anyone who was offended by the post.
I can assure you all I won't make the same mistake again.
Despite my embarrassment, I offer you my best, as always.
Brian
