Williamtown in the news
Today's Sydney Morning Herald has an editorial ("Newcastle could fly") which concludes with a semi-humourous query about the need for RAAF Williamtown:
"In the meantime, one may wonder why the RAAF needs to be based at Williamtown at all, rather than further north. Do the vineyards fear attack from the south by thirsty seals and penguins?"
OK it's a p1ss take, but a hypothetical closure of Willy and subsequent shunting of everyone there to the nation's north would do what to recruitment and retention?
