RAF -> RNZAF Exchange Officer
INJURY SUSTAINED BY RAF EXCHANGE OFFICER
Whilst on the final deployment with 75 Sqn RNZAF, the ex GR7 pilot managed to injure himself in a truely British way: burns to the hand while making a cup of tea! Afraid, perhaps of the DACT vs RSAF F16s and F5s?
We're now unsure if he's off the "nice cup of Earl Grey", and moved on to the "nice and safe" glass of fresh milk. In the mean time he's being issued asbestos gloves.

At least it was only his hands. Last year an RNZAF FJ pilot sustained serious burns after a burning piano fell on him! True story. No names..aye...Andy!
Gotta watch those cuppas though!

That's a cheap departing shot Fishy, and hardly true.If asked, we will turn up as usual.
There are some very peeved people who are venting their anger on the real problem with the RNZAF which is Helen Clark and Her Treehugging Ideologues.I think it wrong to blame the Service which, up until now, has clearly given you what you want!
I suggest you take a look at www.soscampaign.co.nz which, though unlikely to change the current Govt.stance, may well rid us of them next year. Too late, but satisfying nonetheless! As recently as 24/25 September a Colmar Brunton Poll indicated 73%disagreement with what has been done.Have you written to Helen yet?
