Considering most people's operational tours start and end with RAF Movement staff, there is is a huge opportunity here to portray a positive image of the service that is clearly being wasted. Pity more people aren't like flyboy, and realise these are "customers" and they are by and large being treated in a shabby, unprofessional manner.

DAS fits, broken planes, and crew duty time are all fascinating aspects of moving servicemen and women around the world, but are not something the average mover has any control over. On the other hand, courtesy, politeness, understanding, professionalism, taking time to explain problems, and treating people like you would also like to be treated, those are things you can control as a mover.

If the the comments made by this politician can be treated in such a cavalier way by those who do not feel there is a problem, what chance does some poor squaddie have of getting any respect and service?
