Mad Mark clearly does not realise how the Armed Forces (Bar the RAF) Operate.

Ask your IntO ???? what bloomin IntO ?

Comprehensive Outbrief.....whats an Outbrief ?

You'll now be telling us that the RAF have "comprehensive outbriefs" when ever they deploy for Operations and that each squadron has an Intelligence Officer who will brief the crews on threat parameters and tactical procedures...
VecVec, what are you saying? You have no IntO? Surely shortages and cutbacks haven't effected even you

No, not all sqns have IntO's, but all major deployment locations I have been to do, whether full time, reservists or Ops Sup taking on the role with access to the relevant info.

As for "comprehensive outbriefs", if you are not being offered an int brief on the important factors in the op area then you should ask for one. Anyone heading into a trouble-spot without a good working knowledge of the possible threat against them is an idiot Int cells are there to provide YOU with a service. If YOU choose not to use that service then that is your own fault.

If you have no access to an IntO then maybe you should reconsider your views on overstretch
