"Pilots and air crews carrying out missions over Libya, and the crews of ships and submarines operating within 12 nautical miles of the coast, will receive the payment for each day they serve in these areas."
So, can we operate our boats and planes outside of this 12 miles? The cynic in me suggests we can and probably will.
Also, I do wish the media would stop using the word 'troops' each time the run a story about our forces. Especially as the army are barely involved in this job (cue howling derision from AH mates). Can we not make Joe Public aware that our AIRMEN and SAILORS are doing things just as valuable as those that our soldiers are doing?
