When I joined in 1965, I was ex Mercantile Marine (Merch) where we thought ourselves quite a drinking womanising bunch.
As a new junior RAF officer, I rapidly formed the opinion that the RAF had the MN beaten into a corner in those respects.
A very minor custom was that, refuelling in Istres le Tube near Marseille we would have a glass of wine with lunch before continuing to Malta or Cyprus. One day, on a whole crew route check, the wine arrived but, of course, no-one touched it until the 54yo route check captain picked up a bottle and announced "Shall we just treat this like a normal trip?"
The drinking, extramarital shagging and GF swopping were legendary.
Aahh
Edited to say - Had a look this am to see if I'd posted anything bannable post drinks
