keen to make his mark
I recall one making his mark. Grade skipped after one short posting, he sent an e-mail to everyone in the Directorate General telling them to pay attention, he was about to hand down his vast experience gained on his successful Chinook HC Mk3 programme. That set a new benchmark for how many millions wasted was regarded as a success. Later surpassed by Nimrod (same DG).
