Which inevitably reminds me of the well known submarine CO who would always make a point of going up to introduce himself to visiting Crabs in the wardroom at Faslane - hand held out and.... walking sideways!

Was the RN or the RAF that ordered "in future pongoes are to be referred to as soldiers"?

And you could throw in the Rockapes as well - that would be fun https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/wink2.gif

Why would you merge two offensive units such as the RM and PARA with an airfield defence force???!!!
I assume a lot of regulars here know I used to be a Rockape myself before I was a nav, so my post was just a bit of a teaser. Not partial to worms so I wont be biting!
