Why are there lots of jokes about the RAF Regiment?
They’ve been around for ever, the jokes that is.
And it’s fair to say that they go both ways. Taking the piss and being in the military kind of goes hand in hand, and the general rule of thumb is that any unit other than your own is shite.
The Army being the Army, they’ve got loads of regiments that will typically shower metaphorical shit at each other, so it’s not just one that attracts more negative attention than any other.
And as for Royal, well, you know.
And much like the booties…
The RAF Regiment are a singular infantry type unit within a service that doesn’t have any other such unit within said service, so they tend to be a focus for more piss taking than normal.
But then again, they could all be jealous.
