The Roll Demo was in the galley of the E-3D. Mine was Ham and Cheese.
You can have ham...You can have cheese...But you can't have ham
and cheese unless you are royalty...
I was standing just the other side of the Western taxiway when they set them off on the 4th...Even though I knew it was coming, was determined to not answer anybody talking to me and thus be distracted and had my eyes glued on the suitcase sized green box that I reckoned had to be the explosive when it went off I still nearly 'set loose a mole' at the sheer ferocity of the bang...It actually wobbled the metal uprights that were holding up the roof over my head by a couple of inches and most on the sqn thought the windows were coming in...
My hearing was so impaired afterwards I missed several requests to do menial tasks and ended up going home early...
