BZ to HMS Gannet SAR

A good news animal story for the BBC to run which involves the Forces. Good thing we have a trained cadre to do this sort of thing.

BZ to all involved!

The Navy are used to Bulls**t so no problem for them at all, although the bull was not too happy - in fact it got a strop on for the whole flight.
