Christmas in Rhodesia
Dougie, your comments on the hard lying det to Salisbury bring back memories of how we suffered for our country at that time but IIRC we also had to suffer a New Years pool party at the Rhodesian Air Force C.I.C's home at which a certain Co-pilot, C...s F..d by name did his ear in relegating him to Ops Officer for some while while the crew I was with had to borrow a Co when we went flying. At that time the Det was crews plus a G.E. each and Christmas was celebrated in the hotel and a good time was had by all! Your G.E., a gentleman by the name of E..y B....m and I shared a room there and yet again as you say it was very hard to keep up the story of how bad it was to be out there!
