Crab, your arrogance is overwhelming.
Until you have served or even visited an MCA base and discussed the differences between Civil or Mil SAR how can you claim (which you have done on no uncertain terms, on many occasions) to be an authority on UK SAR.
Having already met you, your superciliousness is as self evident as each and every post you make.
I hope you and your family are prepared for 2012 when jobs maybe hard to find.
