Come, Come, Baron,
I'm not xenophobic. You'll find my first post was in riposte to an insult against the French. I have the utmost respect for all those in their armed services whom I have met and worked with over the years.
You response, on the other hand, seems a trifle xenophobic itself. I fear you have fallen into the trap of descending to the level of some of the posters. You should not let them goad you into such a response.
The accusation levelled, however, albeit provocatively, was one of hypocrisy. How do you respond?
And I would really like an answer as to where you did your combat flying back in the 70s...........
