RAF Regiment Info
All,
I'm after some info on the Regiment, and having searched the RAF web-site, forums and google have had no real luck.
Specifically, I'd like to know the following:
Details of trade training for both Officers and Gunners
How the squadrons are tasked - by the Regt CO, ACC or some-one else?
Who does the Regt CO report to whilst on Ops (i.e. what is his CofC)?
Is there a "Head of the RAF Regiment", and what role (if any) does he or she have over the operational use/tasking of the Regiment?
What is the highest rank a Regt Officer can reach, and how many do so?
I don't anticipate any OPSEC issues here, however please let me know if I'm wrong. Would appreciate a fair level of detail, so please PM if you feel that to be more appropriate.
I'm not looking to join the Regiment, nor do I want to start a thread that quickly devolves into either Regiment bashing or (pointless) comparisons to other units within the UK Armed Forces. I'm not a walt or a journo, it's just intellectual curiosity!
