    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!

    Its a good way to let off the stress.
    dont knock it unless you have been there.
    I would rather see that then the pics of abuse of the POWs.
    Man they have great food there, Even have Burger king, Subway and pizza hutt on the bases.
    It was great to get on the base it helped the with the crap food we had.
    If you are behind meDont ask as I am lost too.

    Playing is necessary to get over all the crap they have to put with. Our lads are no different - well perhaps a bit funnier but its the same concept.

    As I understand it the original words were ad-libbed over beer for a bunch of Aussie jet jockeys. The video came later when the song was entered in a for-fun talent night while in Timor. The references to 75 Sqn are regrettable IMHO.

    Sure, the A4 didn't go round dropping bombs in anger. But they could have and that was the whole point of having them. In training and exercising they were doing their job by reinforcing the belief that they could. Just ask the Taiwanese. The non-operational comments hark back to friendly banter in the bar and nothing more. When the current generation of helicopter pilots were joining up, the decision to scrap the air combat force had already been made. They never had the opportunity to get to know the jet guys or share in a Feast of the Clan McIntyre and hence the coarse reference to them being non-operational. They were good guys and a great loss.

    So back on topic. I don't think production of the US soldiers' video clip had any effect on the price I pay to fill up my bike.
