The R.A.F. is a good career but lets not dress it up.
My uncles leaves the R.A.F. next month at the age of 55 after singing on for the maximum term.
He had a great career and his pension is something I wish i had to look forward to!
He has a house a few miles from St. Tropez and sold a few here in England so he`s not short of a few bob.
The price he paid is many lost colleagues in N.I. during the 70`s and has recently been to Basra and Afghanistan.
He has seen many places, good and bad and he wouldnt change that for the world.
You`d be surprised how many places the R.A.F has been that you dont hear about.
The stories he tells about the army in Germany during training excercises are funny.
You should be proud of your son as there arnt many kids today that have the guts to serve their country.
I take my hat off to him and wish him a safe and successful career
