The troll is simply misinformed about Rockapes.

Here's a Rock... Link.

Thank you very much guys for the comments, quite humbling.

What I would say is that the confidence and attitude the Regiment gave me, helped me in my studies and research, so if I hadn't joined up and met such top blokes, I wouldn't be sitting here.

I would also say that many of the less academic guys I met in the mob, were much brighter than me in many ways. I remember being in awe of some people's ability to assess a stressful situation and make the correct decision, guide me around a training area without need for a map or indeed any number of other things that probably seemed day-to-day stuff, but which are actually very difficult to do well.

Joining the RAF Regiment was the best decision I've ever made.

For myself... A mere six GCE's, (I hated school... Spent most of my time in class looking out of the window watching the Falcons jumping onto Abingdon when No. 1 PTS was there... :ok:). But having managed large computer systems for 20+ years and being able to run rings around many with Masters Degrees in Computer Science and several years of experience I'm not as impressed by academic qualifications as I used to be. I prefer to meet the person and decide from there...

In answer to the original question:

When a couple of pupils step out of line, all the kids in another school hundreds of miles away are given detentions.

What would happen if the teacher gets out of line?

I was teaching a class on "blueprint reading" at Brize in late 1999. Everything was going until the first break. During the break one of students came up to me and asked if I had a licence for my "laser pointer"? I thought he was joking and made some smart ass comment. That really made him mad and said if I did not put the pointer away he would call the RAF Poilce and they could arrest me as I should have registered it when I brought in country.

Will I took my un-regestered "laser pointer" home and used it to drive the neighbors cat crazy for the next two years.
