Are you proud of the fact that you didn't wear uniform and by your own admission so you can "keep your head cool in the summer". What a complete

I joined the RAF in the early 80s and apart from a tour in the Ivory Towers have worn uniform throughout. Anyone who was naive enough to think that the IRA didn't have a good surveillance system in the 80s was living in cloud cuckoo land. If they wanted to hit a serviceman they would, whether you pretended to disguise yourself or not.

It is time that we got back into the habit of wearing uniform in public, and in particular back in MOD. It might remind some of the civil serpants just who they are supposed to be working for and with!!
