Post by MG »

Off there for my first posting. Would like to know what it is like there - housing, area etc etc.

Just to let you all know - passed out at Cranwell on 31st March and am now a Flt Lt. Off to RAF Innsworth for three weeks now on legal induction training!

Best of luck everyone!

Auf Weidersehen

Auf=until

Weider = again

Sehen = to see

until again see or until I see you again!

The grammar is a tough one to learn but you should pick up names of things pretty well.

I was wondering if he had missed an 'e' out, but then RAF Hereford closed a number of years ago. As if that would matter.....
