Raf Odious late 70's a new all singing all dancing electric gate has been installed to replace the MK1 hand driven version with a elevated heated building to sit in....... Station Commander whose normal mode of transport is U/S and has been issued with a black mini as his staff car complete with flag arrives at the gate, Airman crouches down to check the driver is the C/O stands back up salutes and opens the barrier, Staish drives through the gate and because he cannot see the guard due to the box being higher than him thinks he has not saluted him, guard presses the down button on the barrier as the Station Commander reverses back under it to ask the airman why he never saluted him, all thankfully watched by the SWO walking out to the guard hut as the barrier gracefully lowers onto and crushed the mini's roof....
