Why do some people have to lower themselves to depths where one branch is debated over another? It beggars belief that the same people criticising
one man's (CAS's) alleged statement, then demonstrate utter hypocrisy in their own muses. And anyway, if CAS really said this then who's to say that his opinion matches everyone else's in the RAF? It doesn't!
I for one believe that everyone's a specialist, everyone's capable in their own way (like unknown idiots becoming pop stars overnight) and if the Services can't work together then none will survive the next 50 years IMHO. I think the very fact that this RAF/RN tiff is in the public domain is a sad state of affairs, I really do.
