Well Red Flag, it's all relative as they say.

12 missions. Well done. How many sorties into Iraq did the K do? And without so many of your gucci MAWS kit. The F18 escort was required because the K was in a particularly dangerous area too.

Para Wedge. Again, well done. How many times have you dropped since SA? And were any of the troops weighing more than 300LB? I trust not; not with that painfully thin static line of yours.

SA. The J got the K out of the dwang because the K was sent to an area where there is seasonal high winds at that time of the year. Hence, it got way behind on the drop schedule. The J was based further inland were no such problems existed and so never got behind the programme.

Harness Packs at Keevil. Well, you got me there. Now I am impressed. And all within thirty yards of the marker!!! What an impressive bit of kit you have.

As for the ME, B8,12,16,22 AE, MSP, BOAT etc, well ; oh sorry you never mentioned them did you?
