kms - if you have never experienced the commitment, loyalty and mutual respect that comes with serving amongst 'the best' then that is your loss and I, for one, do not envy you one bit. If you have no regrets – why are you hanging on the words of these threads?
I would not change my past. To succeed in a difficult job, with little and sometimes no margin for error, to go into harm’s way surrounded by determined and courageous people, to lead these people is rewarding beyond description.
This is what lights our fire – this is why people stay. But demobcurious put’s it very well - it must be balanced. Currently it is not and that is why we see such committed people leaving.
Bufe - which air force?
