This should be a cue for the 'Red Flag' tales. For those who may not know Red Flag was the annual exercise held at Nellis AFB very close to 'Lost Wages' (Las Vegas). It involved fast jets and tac airlifters etc . The USAF had the space the ranges and the monitoring kit which we did not. Hence the UK participation.
Spent a month there once as the AT Det O but that is another story.
