I believe the transport force can thank Wg Cdr "Basil" D'Olivera who many years ago decided that any fool can be uncomfortable, and strove very hard to get air conditioned accommodation down the route at places like Gan. This, naturally, has morphed into single hotel rooms for all operators because we now rarely go to places that have on base accommodation - unless at Akrotiri or in theatre.
We don't dig in, we check in.
As a friend said when he heard someone was going camping, "As far as I am concerned, that is dropping down to a 3 Star!"
