Uniform in civilian airports

Yes the JSP 800 clearly states no uniform! I can speak from first hand that I saw an army lad wandering thru LHR in desert uniform carrying bergen, body armour etc. The eyes of every passenger were on this individual and actually parted (like the waves) when he walked past. Weapons or no weapons, why compromise your security and that of our British public for the sake of a pair of jeans and tee shirt. If these pax had to move from the Gulf by commercial means, would you think they would travel in uniform, I think not! So rest my case. Its not a stupid request that the "Movers" ask pax change into civvies, its common sense. So give them a break. They have a job to do just like us!
