13 SQN In Canada.
 
I would be very grateful to the GR-4 pilot that ''borrowed'' my desert boots if he was to return them. He was based with the TACP on BATUS and I was running the O.O.S. TACP. I lent them to you because your boots were shagged .I need them back as I deploy to the hot sandy rockie place soon. Sorry to use these means but ive had no joy on the phone. Kind regards

I have a couple of old, well used Brit and Yank desert boots in my attic if you get desperate; I have no use for them anymore.

Of course you could always pop down clothing stores and get some more.............:ugh:

Stores ......
 
If only stuff was available from stores ....... where is your old pair to exchange ......

Could always buy some from Silvermans I suppose.

Boots

''Ok Ok you guy's''.Well it was worth a try.

Don't judge a man until you've walked a mile in his boots. And then ...

He's a mile a way and you've got his boots.

I thank you.

If pilots were trustworthy stackers wouldn't need so many signatures for their kit.
Of course sometimes the safest bet is not to give them anything. ;o)

Rule 1, never lend kit to a man who lives in a different block.
Rule 2, wrt to rule 1..... Never trust a grobag wearing biological interface.
Rule 3, Ask a rock ape if he has some spare kit for sale.

Speak nicely to the Squippers. Theyre bound to have some hidden away somewhere [or know a man who has]:):)

Ah now you know why they are called 13 "The Thieving Bastards" Sqn.

Goes back to when they flew Lysanders or something..

Helpful Stacker, are you at Odious :E

Stitchbitch 11th Aug 2008 18:50

As PICKS135 says, go and see the Gut squippas, and don't be such a plonker next time :E You could always borrow 'the saviour of Army Avns' boots' (if you can find him...):ok:

gr4buddy 11th Aug 2008 19:12

I will speak with my mates on 13 Sqn and see if I can get them back for you

The Helpful Stacker 11th Aug 2008 19:38


Helpful Stacker, are you at Odious
Not anymore.

I handed back my issued kit (and a few extra bits) last year and headed for pastures new.

Looking forward to getting rid of these old stinkers to be honest! I can't believe I had to create a stupid name and register to this old wives network to reach you though! Safe travels mate.
