Wonder how many of their Senior Officers rang in or even heaven forbid personally checked that they were ok?
We were rang up from the 2nd Sea Lord on Xmas Eve all the way from his home to the FI- the QM took the call and was mighty surprised, pretty pleasantly.
Alas Yeovil Air Command didn't seem to give a fig about their own troops over Xmas in some of the years I served at the base. We could have easily locked up and thinned out-no one would have cared either way how we got on for 2 weeks
I always appreciated a look in by the boss of local bosses but its a damn rare event.
