Sounds like you were with the rwong force(s), Wageslave. I couldn't have hoped for a better transition to civvy street after 28 years Military; I saw smart, joined-up thinking at virtually every level of the Forces/Constabularies on whose behalf I flew around the country. The occasional dipstick, sure - but overall I was impressed by the quality of the people who, with our consent, keep an eye out for us.
