The families' accommodation at BZN has been an absolute scandal for decades and I don't buy the "no-one can do anything about it" argument.
No-one has done anything about it because fast jet poling experience does not qualify their airships to address tricky morale issues, so they get put in the TFD box. It is much easier to publicly wring their hands about how many Typhoons the RAF should get.
The closure of LYE and the creation of a "super base" was the opportunity to sort out families' accommodation issues at BZN once and for all. The opportunity was ignored (there's a surprise!), so future generations of RAF families will continue to live in cr@p houses.
Our Servicemen (and women) desrve better!
