I've had the pleasure of meeting and working with an RAF PEdO who is a PJI - the modest and lovely Sqn Ldr (then), Pete Smout

I discovered he had been awarded the AFC (wow!) but he was reluctant to discuss it

Explanation from his mates (not the London Gazette)

On a trg jump, a student's primary failed to open - his secondary then Roman Candled

Pete saw this and ditched his primary - skydived to grab the student - and pulled his own secondary, some 100ft from the ground, saving both of them

He never shouts about this

Not seen the video either

Love many, Trust a few, Somebody's looking after you!
