Well said on behalf of all intelligent, open-minded, tolerant and GRATEFUL civilians.
This old Ppruner has the privilege to live in Ross on Wye (Herefordshire) where we get almost daily flypasts by Hawks, C130s plus the odd Tucano, Tornado and Typhoon. (Oh also have 22 Regiment's - you know who I mean! -firing-range on the outskirts of town)
The locals' support for all you mil guys (but not too much naval stuff here!) is boundless. Those of us with more than 2 brain-cells understand the importance of training... and that so many of your special skills are perishable.
Bless you all, keep up the good work and b*****x to the bearded one in Salop. Cheers bm
