My first job on promotion to corporal and posting to Brize was in the Post Room. I was responsible for ordering, distributing and selling RAF News.
As I read this thread I had to double check the date and make sure that it wasn't 1974 because the exact same comments were being made then and that's - gulp - almost 40 years ago!
My last act on retirement as a sqn ldr in 93 was to buy a copy of RAF News. Still got it somewhere.
