YOZZER: in another life when I was associated with a Somerset ATC Squadron the OC VR(T) Flt Lt was in his day job an Inspector with Avon & Somerset Constabulary - behind the Mess for a quiet chat, I doubt it!!
(and his deputy was the town's Head Postmaster........). And yes, if I was still serving I would be happy to give either of them the respect their uniform deserves.
Well done Gp Capt Vorderman MBE, a brilliant ambassador for the cadets - still a fertile hunting ground for recruits to our current RAF I understand
