Training Units on Operations ........
Hi Folks, we often talk about whether 'Training Units' flew on operations and whilst looking for some other details, I came across this example ........... which took in quite a large effort.

Hi John,
I would have to say that as the "feint" was classed as a training exercise, it would not count as an op, even though it was used in conjunction with the main force. But i stand to be corrected if wrong.

There is no paralell in warfare, to such courage and determination in the face of danger, over so long a period. Such devotion, should never be forgotten.
