Just started a new Facebook group for those who may be interested. Hope it is ok to Promulgate it here. Ex RAAF Grey Nomads. Just a spot for EX RAAFies to let each other know where they are and share a happy hour or two

Must've been pretty good at those happy hours in the RAAF cause you lot were absolutely awful at drill, as in ANZAC day and Remembrance day marches, just a friendly inter force nudge.

It's quite obvious that you have never been involved in any marches or memorials as the Navy are by far (was when I was in the forces in the mid 70's) the best at drill, a lot more time on their hands at my guess.

When I was an instructor at the Police Dog Training School, the Navy dog handlers had no idea how to open order march, when I asked them why they said not smart on a ship unless you want to go for a swim.
