Any servicemen/women members?

im currently coming to the end of my RAF Weapons Technician phase of DCAE Cosford, hoping to go to Marham on the 5th November. Just wondered if there is anyone else here in the services etc.  At ease…

Kind of dude im just about to leave the Army after 14 years service ! My trade was as an Armourer.

Sorry mate i just play at it, Warrant Officer in ATC

There are more, as I have seen several posts where people
have mentioned they are in the sevices, been away on duties
and unable to work on their cars, more than likely they are
on a tour / not able to get the use of a pc etc?…

You all do a superb job, and for very little recognition.

Dib.

finally at Marham, going to try check out he motor club this week, and see if i can get my golf 200 miles without driving it....

I did 3 years before i got thrown out and sent to MCTC.

I loved the Army but at the time i liked fighting and "Brown" i still like a good tear up but been off the gear about 15 years now.

Made me think aswell this post if i had kept my nose clean and not got killed i would only ave 4 years left of my 22.

Im  in the Navy and spend several months a year on a Submarine…lucky me..

In all fairness i like my job, it is a challenge on several fronts but i guess id be bored otherwise..

Ex WRAF

LOL me too i'm an ex-tactical ant.

I spent most of my RAF career at Marham as a Weapons Tech, from 1988 to 2007.

From the the Tornado Squadrons then to the Armament equipment bays and then on to Bomb Disposal. I travelled the world including a tour of Iraq. I loved every minute!!

What section are you working in?? let me know and I'll put you in touch with some top lads.

Once an Armourer always an Armourer!!!

P.s Do yourself a favour, learn the Armourers song and get yourself on the Armourers quartet. (See Tom Sawyer in TAS and tell him Reevo sent you) Oh and make sure you are capable of drinking vast amounts of real ale!!!

I've just joined the royal navy!
Going in as a Air Engineering Technician….
Don't start for around another 3 months though  8O
cant wait!!
 :mrgreen:

i did 4 years in the army, been out since 05. good fun but couldnt face another 18years of bein told what to do!

maximum respect for those that make it a career  

Not serving myself but married to one who is!  Posted to Germany at the mo - been here for a while now. Originally in Osnabruck but now in Monchengladbach.  Having major car dramas with my LHD cabby just now so that's joyful…
