theres quite a few raf that work FOR SF, as to how many crabs have actually passed selection I have no idea - i guess they have their fair share.

just because some units like to enhance their sf tag it doesn't mean they are sf. - i.e 264 signals sqn (sas) are not badged sas troopers they just provide the sigs infrastructure for uksf, same for some of the raf untis that provide aircraft for sf.

All crabs are SPECIAL that is why they joined the elite force in the first place..........camouflage on, flak jacket ready, go to ground.........

Do you reckon any RAF techies have ever made selection

As my name implies, Spanners for the Spannermen, no chance of me getting embroiled in behind the scenes activities, too bloody dangerous, it was bad enough making your way pi$$ed back from the NAAFI to the billet over monsoon drains and avoiding tic palongas.
