ORAC, "On NATO exercises" I supose I should have said "In Maritime Ops on NATO exercises". I only sleep (and drink) at Bently Priory now and again, not work there. Sorry.
Also this never happens at Faslane where the only people in Ops wearing "you can't see me suits" are pongos and booties. Freshly laundered light blue shirts much in evidence. (Unlike PJHQ, were we are all guilty!)
ps1. Anti flash is a loan item, not personal issue. (It is very useful on 5 Nov if you can scrounge some!)
ps2. Was always a little bit sceptical about the Imperial Russian thing but have just seen todays Telegraph (on line as well). I am now convinced. Look at the pics of the guard with the old Tsarina's coffin.
