So many RAF officers of today are quite clearly very jaundiced, have little loyalty and have no respect for their senior officers, who in turn appear blind to the needs and aspirations of their subordinates.
People have loyalty to people. In battle soldiers have loyalty to each other and fight for the man next to them. Throughout my career, practically every person I served with was loyal to his fellow men (and women) to his boss and to his subordinates.
When it comes to loyalty to a "thing", like a country, a service or a company, life gets a little more complicated. When the "thing" spends its whole time sticking large objects up your hole thing...the novelty of loyalty to the "thing" quickly wears thin.
Apologies if that got a little flowery...halfway down the post BBQ second bottle of Merlot.
