Royal air force 63 and 19 squadron leaders from 1980 until 1994

Dominator2. I stand very much corrected. Total lack of research. What I meant to say was that 19 (F) was not a Hawk Sqn at Chivenor. Personally, I as an ex Sqn Cdr, am obviously disappointed of the demise of 151(F) Sqn but given it's Scottish history maybe it will rise again when Scotland get its independence !

Continuity Drill for QCS

I claim my £5; I went through OCTU in '67 with the late WO Danny Gourd (latterly Flt Lt) and it was 'im wot did it!

I once had a particularly vindictive and useless Flt Cdr who said of me and my deportment (in one of my 6000); "Cpl Rush, when visiting the unit in his time off, can sometimes dress unsuitably, much like a biker might".

Had a mean little swine as a JENGO once too. Not known for my patience he once said to me at a beer call

'You don't suffer fools gladly do you Corporal.'

To which I replied with my nicest smile

'Well obviously I do sir.'

The mouth worked up and down a couple of times as he thought of a pithy retort but he decided that I hadn't said anything and wandered off to annoy someone else...my SENGO on the other hand was having a beer down the nose moment... .

Mr Gourd would have looked smart in a sandbag.
