I have been looking at this site for over a year and have never felt the need to post a reply before today, but this subject is getting out of control, so I have registered so I can have my say!! The original subject was if I remember, was that aircrew
may have to provide their own rations for flights of 1-4 hrs unless over meal times. Not too unreasonable I think, I and many others manage to take to work enough food to see us thru the working day.
No one is questioning that rations should be provided (FOC) for flights of longer duration.
As for the rubbish of free rations on guard and free uniforms for officers surely this should be covered in a different thread.
I think everyone needs to take a deep breath, get back in their cots and calm down, because at the end of the day we are all supposed to be adults. Remember, its not just RAF personnel that use this forum and its not showing us in the best light.
