Ref the RAF and bayonets.
I'm in the RAF, but not in the RAF Regiment. In early 2012 on ops in the Upper Gereshk Valley in Afghanistan I dismounted from a Warrior AFV along with the rest of my patrol and fixed bayonet. A bit of a moment, to say the least and unique in my service career. I'm not telling the story to say "look at me, I'm great!" but to illustrate the fact that it does still happen and not always by whom you might expect. Thankfully, another callsign did the necessary by other means just as we commenced our tab in.
