The RAF Regiment has done a fantastic job in the past few years and have probably got their smug captions fully on. Everything they have bleated on about for years wrt force protection has become reality and they are in huge demand. After all, even one single MANPADS would be bad news.
Their seniors now have the ear of grown-ups at MOD, PJHQ and Air Command and they are relishing it large.
Credit to them for the predeployment training as well
CCS is still **** though
