I think the idea is excellent but have little confidence in the execution. Another 'Joint' venture 'run' by the Army, does not sound too great so far. Very broad agenda, is it feasible? How is it going to be funded? How will it be policed? We don't need a Trade Union type disaster where it is hijacked by the militants. Don't let the good Mr Collins near it as it would spell disaster for the RAF types. (Don't dismiss it, I can see him being a prime candidate from the Army point of view).
Slightly depressing TV 'launch' with serving personnel hiding their identity.
Cynical? Definitely but a sound idea and I wish them/you luck.
