Am I the only one left?
Getting a little bored with all of the 'life in the RAF is crap' brigade. Am I the only one left who still enjoys it? Yes, it is not the RAF that I joined either - but you know what? That old RAF was not always the Dogs Do Dahs either. Much has changed, and will continue to change, lots of it (not all granted) for the better.
I understand that this type of thread tends to attract the more pessimistic end of the gene pool, but the vast majority of my colleagues, across the rank and age spectrum, still enjoy the life - if answering honestly.
Yes OOAs and 'over-stretch' are hurting us - but ask a few of the old boys from WWII (and for the 10+ years after it ended) how much time they spent at home.
I fully expect the same old names to reply and deride. But I for one would not change it - not too much anyway......
