Living in the past.
You are living in the past. Be better value to the taxpayers if several of these establishments closed down and the remainder amalgamated. I never cease to be amazed how MOD have hung on so long with it all. The entire RN and RFA surface fleet operation could be ran from one naval base these days, let alone basic training.
HMS Raleigh (RN ratings) was practically dead last time I was there (demob). Massively underused.
But something else is behind all this.
For once a dose of "Thatcherism" should be applied and you should all get on with it..
