As an 18 year old DE I had the following "Life Experiences" with the RAF:
Cheap Beer
Cheap cars
Cheap petrol
Cheap travel
LOA (which increased my salary by 35%)
Friendly ladies
Camaraderie &
teamwork Learning and developing a skill-set that was actually of some use
Earning a salary and contributing towards the country and its economy.
etc.
etc.
Don't come all high and mighty on this forum about university life experiences. I, like many, have done bl**dy well thank you very much, despite the lack of a 'proper' education.
Now, please go away, put on some white tapes, and actually learn what the RAF is all about.
