Are you telling me that if a Sqn moves to another Station it no longer has a claim on any of its previously operated 'hardware'
Definitely. The gate guardian should have relevance to the station's history. Waddington has an unfortunate precedent with the early E3 mob trying to ignore those who came before them - and who were an integral part of Lincolnshire life for decades.

XM607 is the only proper gate guardian for Waddington - new kids on the block can wait another quarter century before they can challenge that heritage.

Green Flush, my comment has absolutely nothing to do with Mess silver....

That 23 have one of The Crows' old F4s as a mascot is equally irrelevant.
