Just make one up. I once got into an Italian Air Base waving a piece of toast
Would that be an American Air Base in Italy? I remember the same thing happening there. I also remember the rather young attractive female guard (the one with red hair and the deep green eyes for those who are in the know).

I recall arriving at the gate during a base excercise and she was there; fully kitted out and toting a M60 - an incongrous sight. She had a sense of humour failure when the van driver asked "Does your mum know that you're out with that?"

The RAF must be the only place where after 25 years Service you give them a watch when you retire.
Damn, spilt my coffee reading that.

I used my RAFA RAF retired card to get the Veteran's discounted rates at several Florida theme parks. Can't see that working at Alton Towers!
