The subject of the general public and the services reminds me of my physics master for the last couple of years at school.
I bumped into him about three years after I left and we chatted for a couple of minutes, then he asked "what are you doing now Crun ?"
I said, with more than a little pride, "I am a pilot in the Royal Air Force sir."
He snorted and replied "I always said you'd come to no good" and stalked off.
