Lovely sentiment Flatus, but I'm afraid the faceless ones behind perfidiuos albion would be loath to agree.In 1939 there were already 500 NZ aircrew in the RAF. Seven NZ Squadrons served within the RAF, and there were kiwis in nearly every RAF Sqn.They served in every theatre and the 11,500 aircrew suffered along with the RAF.At one stage some 25% of all aircrew in the Fleet Air Aim were kiwis.They have also fougth in every Pom war since, including the Gulf.
However, that was then, and today is now, and Princess Tony has discounted NZ 'cos he's too busy to accept an invite to visit after the CHOGM in Oz, and his minions declare kiwis as foreigners.
Personally I prefer it that way!!He's worse than ours!
