The first time I heard "Jointery" put forward as the way to go was in 1960, when I was a Grammar School Army Cadet. In 1963 I joined the RAF and in all my service as a Maritime Pilot, I found that the Army were very keen on Jointery, but the RN considered themselves to be the Senior Service and the rest of Her Majesty's Services to be somewhat below them.

What were they smokin' at Dartmouth?


Neptune,

Are you not playing up to the very criticism that you level at Sharky? Ocra very correctly points out that those of us who work at the coal face are commited to making this work. A few years ago I remember one Army Officer describing the RAF as 'Utterly, utterly useless'. The views of the entire Army? Or one slightly hacked off officer. They exist in all 3 services. Dont join their ranks by tarring us all with the same brush.
