Brilliant experience.
I can only speak for myself,
be surprised if other people
It's it's really.
It's really what you aspire to, to do,
It's, such a banal word,
to, to be in charge of one of these units.
All the guys, the girls on it.
I put it all the history behind it.
and to be to be running it.
yeah.
You get involved in a lot of stuff
that takes you away from flying,
it is what it is, is like in many jobs,
you do what you actually join to do.
but, yeah, it's over.
It's a bit trite and a bit cliche,
for a reason that the people talking
the respect they have for the,
little part for a couple of years or,
and people continue to do it
I it's funny they say you always,
love your first squadron the best.
But those who've been there say yes.
But the one that you were the boss of you
And I really split because I did
then went off and joined
That was not a full squadron.
It's slightly away from Odeon,
And then I came back to 18 Squadron.
So my first was 27, my command was 18.
And yeah, conflict loyalties.
I'm not going to say on camera
but but to, to, to have had a squadron
to see your name joining
I sometime it 18 squadron.
It has got a massive history.
But, as a Battle of Britain fan,
look at some of the fighter squadrons
Sort of the next column across
heroes of mine, those names.
That must have be really something.
But, Oh, God, that's to take absolutely
and 27 amazing things
again, it's a trite and cliche,
It's, you definitely caretaking it for
it's not yours.
so but I, I'm to this day,
absolutely delighted,
All those cliched words
It was great.
