Further to your rather incorrect comments, any delays out of theatre for our brave boys and girls is now not lost leave but is now tagged onto their r&r. Facts straight!! ....
Agreed that lost R&R days now get added to Post Tour Operational Leave, which is indeed a welcome improvement introduced under the present government, and I salute the efforts made by RAF personnel to minimise the delays within the resources provided. But let's not kid ourselves that you ever get back time lost from that precious mid tour R&R.
