I was, still am I suppose, in awe of RAF armourers. From watching them use hammers to send home shells into the belts for the Aden pod in the gun bay at Chivenor. Or once when duty man being called to guardroom for suspect IED in a box, duty plumber corporal picked it up, shook it and declared it safe and left me with a dozen mars bars in my shredds! They make light of it and are somewhat unsung but brave buggxxs all! Love em all to bits, next time you meet one, buy him a beer or six!

Only if you want trouble...FFS six will barely get them out of bed of an afternoon.

Buy an armourer a beer? You must be joking! They're usually permanently drunk and smelling of pi55 anyway! :PDT_Xtremez_42:

It's the smell of cordite that obscures the smell of booze, and p!ss.
