In reply top W/C Ian Gleed a very PC choice by the RAF..... posted by Paul McMillan on Mon Feb 17, 2003 09:37:16 AM

The British MoD have for many years been dishonably discharging gay people from their ranks. Until they lost a court case at the European Court of Human Rights a couple of years back and this was deemed to have be illegal and they had to pay compensation as a result..

This action had ignored the fact that gay and bi-sexual people have fought in both world wars and some have risen to very high rank.... I will not report Churchils famous quote about the Royal Navy here....

Then all of a sudden they paint up one of their most historic aircraft in Ian Gleeds colours... Amazing about turn there.......
