1. Suing the MoD

Posted by pinkprincess on Saturday, June 27 (10 reads)

It makes me so angry! A civvie (Engineer) is suing the MoD because he was injured in a bomb blast in theatre. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/west_yorkshire/8120429.stm This is not a rant at civvies, I am one. He would have applied to go into theatre and be paid handsomely to do so. He cannot be so stupid that he was unaware of the fact that he may get killed or injured. No, he is just being greedy. Claims like this mean less money where it's needed, cutbacks. My Unit is vital and if we don't get the money that we need, thousands of servicemen (not being sexist - I'm a girl - just generic term) will die. I wish these people would get a grip.

2. I ♥ my Unit

Posted by pinkprincess on Thursday, June 25 (32 reads)

So, here I am, a civvie working for the RN and loving it. I've only been in post for 3 months but I am one of the team. It is so nice to work with such a great crew. I've always worked with shop floor lads that have been great but management backing was always somewhat lacking. Now, I have everything: great Team, great Managment and my perfect job. The RN is he best View/Add Comments .....

4. Fly Navy Heritage Trust at Yeovilton Air Day - 11 Jul 09

Posted by FNHT on Monday, May 25 (20 reads)

Administration Approved Notice: Come and visit the Fly Navy Heritage Trust at the Yeovilton Aird Day on Saturday 11 July 2009... we will be next to the large static aircraft, where you will see all the work that we are doing to promote and preserve Britain’s Naval Aviation Heritage and you can try the new Swordfish Beer, created by our partners at Wadworth’s Brewery and Pusser’s Rum. At our enclosure, members will be able to bring in three guests each to: • take a break from the hustle and bustle of the day, sit out, lunch and still have good views of the air displays in the company of like minded people… • sample the wares of our partners from Wadworth Brewery and Pusser’s Rum with the new Swordfish Beer and of course the famous Pusser’s Painkiller! • enjoy a private picnic area or indeed a light lunch organised by the Trust (if you let the office know beforehand!). Members can also enjoy reduced ticket prices for entry to the Air Day... The Trust is an educational charity that has an on-going task of raising in excess of £250,000 every year to fill the MOD shortfall, which keeps the Historic Flight’s aircraft airborne and provides financial support the Fleet Air Arm's Museum and Memorial Church. Your help to support Britain's Naval Aviation Heritage is important to us and a minimum donation of £20 will allow us to move closer to providing an even better memorial to those that have been before and who currently serve. In return, we will send you news letters about our activities and offer exclusive opportunities for you to join in the wide range of unique events that we organise each year for our supporters. e-mail: office@fnht.co.uk Telephone: 01935 842 005 View/Add Comments .....

7. re-applying as an officer

Posted by southernfairy on Friday, April 24 (32 reads)

i had an officer application in the rn regulars earlier this year and passed the eysight and mental aptitude tests, but cancelled my application before my personal interview. i was told that there was no guarantee that i wouldnt end up a submariner and i really didnt want to be in a submarine, id rather be in the surface fleet. can anyone tell me firstly what are the chances that the navy wont let you do the job that you sign up for as an officer, and secondly would that fact that i cancelled my application harm my second one if i choose to re-apply?

9. Help For Heroes John O'Groats to Lands End

Posted by charitypikeman on Monday, March 09 (43 reads)

Having served over 23 years in the Royal Navy, I finally get to retire in May 2009. I have fully enjoyed the comradeship of my fellow servicemen and the efforts we have made supporting British interests home and abroad. To help those who have made a greater sacrifice than me, doing their every day job, I aim to walk from John O'Groats to Lands End, in aid of Help for Heroes. As a personal challenge I intend to do this in 17th century pikemans attire, starting May 2009. For practical reasons I intend to use a half sized pike... it should be 16ft long on 8ft. I will not claim for any expenses incurred, so you can be assured that every penny you donate will go to Help for Heroes. Please help by donating at www.justgiving.com/pikeman or monitor my progress at www.thecharitypikeman.blogspot.com View/Add Comments .....
