"There are very many at KAF who, during their tour, spend quite a bit of time out on the ground and in harm's way - and not just the RAF Regt or RBG"
Does the above mean that there are some who don't "spend quite a bit of time out on the ground and in harm's way" .............hence GK's post should not necessarily be ignored :confused: |
It's on Nat Goeg, |
Those of us 'in the know' may have seen the programme as a big pile of steaming poo, but the target audience didn't. It seems that the recruiting side of things and the RAF careers website have seen a real upturn in business - which would be repeated when it does get shown again. Something good appears to have come of it.

Yes, the last Carrier series was a new one and the last episode was last week, but Discovery being Discovery it will no doubt be repeated again straight off....... It was an excellent production and the way they kept launching jets to tank jets who couldn't land was rapidly appearing to be a catch 22 condition........
Some of the people used in the film all had interesting backgrounds, Mum was a hooker and Dad a drug dealer etc.. and you got the feeling some of them were really trying to better themselves....... nice to see they pay them a descent gratuity for extending for 3 years too, though as one of them with the pregnant girlfriend said, he could be paid better working in MacDonalds.... There is a new series started on the FX Channel called Generation Kill and is based on the true story of a US Marine Unit in the Gulf War 2 starting from the build up to war and is on Channel 164 or 165 I think, so you might have missed it being advertised. The first one started on Sunday this last week and is being repeated during the week and it is not to bad at all, Second episode is 10 PM Sunday, but they are replaying the first one during the week I believe. |
And Ross Kemp is returning to Afghan which is being shown on Sky 1 from the 1st Feb @2200.
If you wasn't happy with Warzone you can always blame the Oggies. RAF Reserves - RAF Halton No 7644 Squadron News Although i doubt you can put the editing down them. |
