It is indeed I was merely pointing out that all the FJ guys who are "the elite" are not deploying anywhere and are merely training. There are nowhere as many FJ guys with multiple medals as there are rotary or multi's guys. Harrier guys are the exception at the minute with Afghanistan.

There is more to being a pilot than being "the elite" I can assure you that there would be many FJ guys who would have no idea exactly what the rotary (cant speak for the multi's) fleet does. If they did I think there opinion would change massively!

To quote a Harrier mate (display pilot no less) from a few years ago "if you want to know about flying and war stories, speak to those guys" he was referring to rotary crews.
