To all the guys and girls deploying with the Puma force. May you all come home very quickly and in one piece. I know you will do your jobs with entusiasm, professionalism and some realish. Be safe, no heroics ( unless it's really worth it!). God speed.
All the best from the fixed wing defector in Brunei.

Absolutely right! The latest poll says that over 77% of the public now support the war. And, no doubt, a lot more besides.
We will be rooting for you and wish you a safe return guys and girls.
God speed.

Absolutely. Best of British luck to all.
Hopefully despite BFPO not accepting any parcels for the gulf, and banning magazines with any hint of nudity therein, and cutting off email contact to HM ships kast week without informing anybody, our lads will at least know they are backed by joe public even if the war isn't.
But I'd love to get my hands on the person who cocked up the organisation of this war so badly I can't even send a few goodies to my brother just when he's at his most-pissed-off-state ever.

To my son, all his squadron mates, and all our other boys and girls out in the sandbox - I know you will get it over with quickly and professionally. Just make sure you all all come back safely to your families in one piece.

Ditto to all above sentiments - Good Luck to all.
As a follow-on to Jackonicko's post - it may be worth pointing out that the parliamentary opponents to action have made clear that they will support the armed forces - their problem is with Mr Blair.

To all service personnel in the Gulf. You have my utmost respect and support. I know that you will do your job professionally and hopefully rid the world of the evil that is Saddam. All the best, keep safe and I hope at least some of you are able to view this thread wherever you are.

Well, I've said my piece for peace, passionately, in several threads. The argument has run its course, and I'm on the losing side; So be it.
Soon, many of you will go into combat. I wish you good luck, many safe returns to base and a quick victory with minimum casualties (on both sides.) All the Best lads, come home safe.

Want to say good luck to all service personnel waiting in the gritty heat to do their bit, especially to the RAF guys and girls, ground and air.
Particular luck to those flying Petter's finest, do your stuff and then bring them back chaps, bring them all back.

Best of luck to all forces personnel in the coalition.
Don't forget to bring home plenty of T-72 and Mirage manuals to emphasised who armed the guys shooting back!

I didn't want it, and now its here I feel rather sad, and somewhat scared, not for me (I'm a KOS) but for all my erstwhile RAF colleagues who go into the battle. I know you will do a sterling job. Take the best care, and may your god go with you.

To all the guys and gals who are about to step into harms way. Best of luck and God speed.
It's at times like this I wish I was back in the service so I could be there with you!

My thoughts are with you all
Whilst I can't be there in person, I will be thinking of you all.
May your years of training be fruitfull and help you all return safely and victorious.
You are heroes before you begin.
Whilst the country is devided as to whether it should be happening, it would seem that the majority support our forces at this testing time.
Do your job well
Do it safely
Do it with pride
Best wishes
