Not wishing to stray of the blunty-bashing track but it's not that long ago that fitness and CCS was a war-fighting concern. During the Gulf War the most popular man on the stn was OC Regt when people started to realize that they might be scudded with something more unpleasant than CS gas. Furthermore, I recall that there was also some concern about the ability of some of the ground tradesmen to service and load jets whilst wearing NBC suits due to lack of fitness.

Sorry. Now where were we? Oh yes, blunties? Toss-pots, the lot of them!
