My OH was on a Station pre-commissioning Board. The candidate was asked, "What's the difference between Air Traffic Control and Fighter Control?" After a moment's thought he replied, "Not a lot, but Fighter Controllers do it faster."
"With the exception of the Battle of Britain, RAF ATC has been far more lethal than the '3rd man in the cockpit'"!
