That.. 'EAW' badge I've read about? Forgive me (sure it'll have been mentioned, just a gunner, still haven't had my first coffee etc) but is there an onomatopoeia thing going on here to suggest the wearer is a donkey?
Lots of station personnel wear CS95 and they don't leave the camp gates, and that never bothered me. I suppose the only time the growbag issue ever concerned me was when one of the swine turned up in a growbag prior to receiving a damned good gas.. cough .. to test of the integrity of his respirator. Then, there was an operational implication.
I'm not saying bollocks to trendy civvy like inclusivity and fairness for all (actually, I am) - but lets just sweat the important stuff. When all's said and done, its the military - not a cub scout pack and I know its probably out of thinking with today's Realm Defence Agency ethos, but you do what you're told. On the plus side, if all we have to worry about is what someone else wears, then things can't be that bad.
Now then. That fitness test..
