Same here Gnomey.... The military, no matter what country, works at its own pace and the individuals in it are at their moronic disposal...

Hurry up and wait as Eric said above... Its the military mantra u will hear again and again...

And again...

Yep hurry up and wait. I love having to report at 0400 hrs to talk about the meeting we are having at 0500 hrs to get ready for the meeting after PT that started at 0600 hrs. No wonder we worked 18 hour days.

Right, on my way down to Cranwell now. Really looking forward to it and hope it all goes well. I feel I am prepared but will of course do some final points over the next couple of days (interview isn't until Tuesday or Wednesday). Thanks for all the pointers they have been very helpful and hopefully will stand me in good stead.

If there were any fighter planes or jets in the PAF, I would sign up. The only remaining airplanes here
are the OV-10, and the rest of force is helicopters.

Well anyway, good luck!

Best of luck, Hugh, although I have a feeling you won't need luck. I think you will do great.
