Have a look at WWW.BT.COM. enter "Royal Air Force Waddington" and "United Kingdom", and hey presto numbers for the RAF Base at Waddington. Just in case you are slow at reading, you can even have the number sent to you by text message.

Believe it or not, if you substitute Coningsby for Waddington in the above, you get a phone number for Coningsby. Other substitutions work, such as Cranwell, Lossiemouth, Leuchars, Odiham, Brize Norton.............

Just ring the number and you can ask the MOD Operator to put you through to units. Unless you are unlucky and get one of the blithering idiots on the switchboard...........better still forget it, you are bound to get a blithering idiot on the other end.
