Wing Commander Owens has recently returned from a tour
of duty with the RAF in Afghanistan. He visited us to give us a
very interesting lecture on the role of the RAF and other arms
of the services in Afghanistan. He provided an excellent power
point presentation during which we were invited to imagine that
we were going to Afghanistan to serve with the RAF. He showed
us all the different roles that we would fulfil, and in particular
the humanitarian work that we would do with the local
population. He showed us lots of very interesting photos.
This was a very good lecture and it opened our eyes to the
poor state of Afghanistan and its great need for aid. It also
showed us how the lives of the people have improved since the
Taliban regime was overthrown. After the lecture we were
allowed to have RAF caps, medals and sashes provided by Wing
Cdr Owens. |
