OK, not aircrew except perhaps for those SAS that jump out of aircraft.
I am surprised that no one has picked up on the loss of yet another set of computer data. Interesting that the following has just been published in PaperClips:
Following the theft on 9 January 2008 of a TAFMIS recruitment laptop containing the personal details of over 1,000,000 recruits and potential recruits to the Armed Services, ncluding their parents/guardians, an enforcement Notice was placed on the Department by the Information Commissioner.
Must admit, didn't realise it had been 1,000,000 lost. The Mirror thought much less:
Up to 658 MoD laptops have been stolen in the past four years - the most recent containing personal details of 600,000 military recruits..
Has Sir Humphrey been economical with the truth? Cross-checking, other reports from Sep 08 also refer to the loss of 600,000 records in jan 08 yet here we have an MOD publication refering to one million. MMmm
