As one who has left, FBC, I don't intend to lamp-swing but don't really care whether you want to hear from me.
I've been out for 10 years now, and only left because my remaining 20 years were going to be in HQs somewhere, not on units as I would have liked. I feel you guys and girls should be bl**dy proud of what you do. I still take an interest in the mob and see some/hear of what you folks do, where you do it, and some of the stuff you're given to do it with. I miss the banter, the professionalism, and being able to rely on people who do what they say they're going to do by the time they're required to do it. Civvy street is SO diffferent
