Watched it sitting in the mess at Lyneham last night with the on call CCAST (who were mercifully not out on a task). Generally very well received. We like the aircrew banter and Gezz VZ 'clearing his mind' in the cold air on the bottom of the ramp. He will suffer for that one! His comment about being unable to work out how long he'd been up for while restocking in Bldg 6001 was quite telling

We were most moved by the two guys having difficulty coming to terms with it all. The Fijian lad who felt guilty for not shooting the Afghan plod and the young lad who hasn't worked out how he will cope with it all yet almost had me in tears

Shame the voice over described us as people working for the NHS and CHOOSING to work for 4 months on CCAST was a bit misleading. We do work WITH the NHS when we aren't on CCAST but CCAST is out primary role and the NHS work is what we do to keep ourselves current for CCAST

Nitpicking but there you are!
