RAF on the move

[Matzos]

Not just aircraft in the Royal Air Force!

Thay make a good target!

In Germany we had the LED - "Light Eating Detatchment" - our REME blokes didn't always seem to be 100% battle ready! I presume that's what LAD stands for, Light Aid Detatchment? If not, then I've just waffled on for two sentences!

 

[Matzos]

You could be right, the lads driving the trucks were all suppliers (stackers)

 

[Bombardier]

You are right zofo old buddy. L.A.D is Light Aid Detachment :mrgreen:

 

[Zofo]

Our LAD were brill at ar**ing us about with wagon checks - I spent the better part of my time in Germany under landrovers cleaning those bloody iron things they laughingly called springs!

 

[Bombardier]

You mean the semi eliptic leaf springs :mrgreen:
