Why did they drop the mile and a half run in x mins as a standard? I
I once went to the muscle mechanics shop at Gutersloh, to get signed off for the run, which was an apparent prerequisite for the winter survival course at Bad K. I expected them to watch me and sign a chit or something. The PEdO said, "No! You're a Sergeant in the Royal Air Force. YOU go and make sure you're fit for the course yourself!" So I doubled home (in the car) and watched BFBS with a beer."
