Gentlemen.
Please excuse a mere civilian from intruding on this Military forum but I wish to ask a genuine question.
If the RAF Club wishes to attract more members to maintain its viability and has to resort to advertising for Civil Servants, why does it not open its membership to existing non-officer RAF personnel?
I spend quite some time every year at RAF Linton on Ouse and meet all ranks of personnel and the enlisted members of staff appear quite civilized, well dressed, and well educated. At Linton there is also a dining facility used by all ranks and it seems to work quite well.
After all this is the 21st Century and enlisted personnel's money is as good as anyone's, isn't it?
