AA62,

Smashing telling of a story that a few "Ascoteers" might have experienced. I had the joy of a deployment for resupply to Kigali, from Dar Es Salaam, which provided failure, superb C130 co ordination and a story that was printed in the Lyneham Globe, I penned it, and after the editor, who was a top bloke printed it, I had a one way interview with "Harry Staish". Apparently OC Admin would have preferred a full blown Courts Marshall. Thankfully common sense prevailed, along with a sense of humour. Not sure if there are archives of "The Globe" if so, please post a link for me you experts, Goldilocks and the three bears was the title ISTR. Meanwhile, a round of applause for AA62, a major contributor to this growing thread. I'm sure others can offer some input, without compromising PPRUNE posting regulations.
