Remember one of the first WRAF SWO’s visiting RAF Odiham in 1984. I was sent to comm cen to collect a signal. I’d just taken the CANAm 250 out so had my motor cycle kit on. Bumped into the sun SWO. He wasn’t impressed with my outfit!!!!! Happy days.
A lot engineers are the same I’ll depends on the airframes you work on. Aircraft engineers often don’t switch airframes in their career. So for example Nimrods never deployed to somewhere that got a medal.
@@gfield1607 Yep, this is true. When I was at RAF St Athan in the late 70's the Air Commodore didn't have a single gong. Interestingly my boss Gp Capt Warhaftig (a Pole who came over in WW2)) had a chest full!

God Bless the Royal Airforce Amen
Interesting to see the WO has no awards other than the 2 freebies and her LS&GC, with clasp I think. Presumably spent her whole career at Cosford.

Happily worked alongside female engineers (even bomb heads)since the early 70's for 33 years. Happy days indeed!!!😁😁
Pleased to see Techniques have not changed 'use a bigger hammer'
Cool
Split arses' will fuck up the engineering trades.
Where are the blacks and muslims in the RAF? I thought britain was supposed to be a diverse country?!?
There there but RAF does not use them as Advert fodder.
So white people are advert fodder?
You have to have a British nationality to be in the royal air force
Probably failed their security clearance vetting
