What Have I Learned

Evening Burning Bush.

A good question. What have I learned.

1/ Rocks appear to be divisive.

2/ The tasks that the R.A.F. Regiment carry out does appear to have been upgraded, and not necessarily relevant to what they are supposed to do

3/ Tactics listed/ inferred appear to have improved through experience (unfortunately).

4/ Am shocked that R.A.F. Regt. no longer appear to provide defence to UK airfields

5/ It appears Rapier no longer is used. What is used instead?

6/ R.A.F. Regt. Officers and NCO's must now think up a level from previous years (from local to tactical).

7/ They still seem to be as brave as when I had the privilege to meet some of them on a number of occasions.
