I really have to speak up against SAM's ranting (off topic, I know), particularly his vicious characterisation of Gp Capt McRobbie and Father Enda Naughton at RAF Laarbruch. I served at Laarbruch from 1984 to 1992 and, so can make comparisons between successive leaders; they were all sound and sensible men who allowed the boys a long leash to play on, and pretty forgiving of all but stupid transgression.
I'm not RC, but found Father Enda to be sociable in the Mess and robust in his view of life (I recall a subsequent incident, in London I think, where he tackled, literally, a would be thief and pinned him down until further assistance came - and he was then not a young man).
I can only imagine that SAM was a misfit, or doing a job that he was not well-suited for, making him unhappy, or the subject of professional criticism. I must have known him if he was an officer serving at LBH during my time there, but by the tone of his postings I would probably have avoided his company.
