Nobody signs the OSA. Some people sign a document saying they understand the OSA (which is pretty pointless as ignorance of it is not a defence) but the OSA applies to every UK citizen...which kinda completely answers OPs question.

And I knew this a long time before the internet, wiki and pprune were invented.

As I'm sure you all do as well.

Time for a hob nob.
Chocolate hob nobs...those were the days. I hope this doesn't land me in the clink for breaking the OSA, but most aircrew t-bars didn't stock 'em, and as most aircrew were notorious skinflints when it came to 'payment in kind' then Jaffa cakes it was..one could argue that this reflected the quality of my badge stitching. One notable honourable exception to this rule of thumb being the pilots and aircrew of the old aeroplane squadron...mmm cadburys chocolate fingers!
