Banter mode on..... the fact that a couple of thousand navy wallahs kept out the froggy hordes has kept the RN dining out for centuries and deservedly so. The fact that between 1940 and 1944 the RAF stopped people in this country from loving sausages and pickled cabbage is also a fact and is HISTORY. The Navy has HMS Victory and a load of other historic sites, the Army has untold numbers of "historic sites". The RAF has just as much right to claim ownership of mileposts in history as anyone else.


Stop being so anal!!!
