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!

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.....

Rather you than me! In my experience the GCP have a unique attitude for squaddies.

Thankfully the GCP will take care of the squaddies under German law - I'll only deal with issues relating to offences committed uder military law
