As always, for 'Joint' read 'Army', and I for one have no interest in serving in such a unit. From an Air Force point of view, the Army are a pain in the @rse to work with as they are often inflexible and just don't get the way we do things. I think merging the 3 services will cause everyone to lose - The light & dark blue will have to put up with antiquated and inflexible Army practice, the Army will have to put up with our 'modern and progressive' (by comparison!) ways, and we will all have to put up with the Navy's barking traditions. We're just all too different.
