where will JSF fly from or is the plan to scrap that and therefore no need for CVF
Other way round, surely - scrap CVF then there's no need for JCA?
Unfortunately they may have just taken this too far.
I share your sentiments but what would actually happen? There are so few of us left in the mil that, short of a coup, we can bleat as loud as we like but those in power can and will simply ignore us. Season's Greetings one and all, especially those on benefits - see you in the dole queue next year. What fun!
