a mate in afghan
friend of mine used to be in the raf hes now a civvy working out in afghan for cerco on good tax free money might i add lol
however as a sacrifice he spends only a third of his life at home
he was lucky to be home over xmas and was due to go back friday, he turned uip to bryers norton or werever it is after a 2 hour or so drive to be turned away not ready etc, then told to report back in morning to see if has a flight, if not he has to go home again, so each and every day they have to do this routine
the wrong part about it is each and every night he has to say goodby to his 4 kids, ive watched it happen like this for the last couple years a few times a year, they really nfuck him about something chronic, its not serco etc as its a militry air base
again todsay hes been sent home even though they told him this morning there was a flight so his wife went home, she has just had a call to go pick him up so thats 7 solid hours driving for her today, tonight again he has got to say goodby to his children in the hope that he will actually fly out and not have to put his kids through the heartache
i could never put my family through this its v sad
