MGD - I am 100% with you mate. As someone who has done 7 tours in AFG and 4 in IZ, I have a small amount of experience. I also have an opinion and the freedom of speech that I fight for is what MGD is exercising on here. If you don't like what he is saying then come back with reasoned arguement.

I have been part of the RAF SH force for 17 years now and do not feel like I am in the RAF, cur me in half and you will find several Sqn badges representing my mates - those who i have gone to war with in every conflict we have fought in since Gulf One. That is who I am, the RAF is still driven by FJ mates (notwithstanding ACAS - good on ya!) but there is a generation of non FJ senior officers pushing through the higher echelons now, I hope they do a better job of representing the most operationally experienced force in this Air Force.

Minor rant over.
