New Shooting Badges and terminology changes

Echoed.

I’d be more worried about VA, 1771s, activities being cut than changing the name of a badge…
Especially with this new matrix thats apparently floating around to say what activities can go ahead or not. But thats for a different thread.

We are doing more than 1 thing at a time, presently we are rearranging the deck chairs while the band plays abide with me.

So attempting to do what is traditionally expected but still getting it wrong? :wink:

We’ve got Officer Crabtree singing it.

It’s got to be true, it happening the RAF Regt according to RAF_Luton and they’re more accurate than the memes :roll_eyes::crazy_face:

Funny, Ive heard people refer to the regiment by that acronym for years now.

Reading the comments the impression seems to be late the whole post is satire & not that part of it has actually occurred :person_facepalming:t2:

I don’t know if you know of RAF Luton but well worth a look at :rofl:

They’ll be removing the word Force from Royal Air Force Air Cadets soon. We don’t want to be scaring children by using a word that could be seen as threatening. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

We’re actually supposed to call it “the service” now. Official vocab guidelines state that "force" is too aggressive .

What’s this Royal Air Force stuff? I thought the RAF bit RAFAC was for Red Army Faction :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Please don’t say you fell for it :man_shrugging:t2: It’s the best satire page on Twitter, those who get hooked are re-educated, as they say :roll_eyes:

So We are now the RSSSC.

@dazizian @Wizzle Not sure who was behind the short social media video for the badges, but it looks great. We need more little bits like that imo.

Interesting that there’s been this big release, but they are using the wrong crown. Why hasn’t that changed?

It’s probably because the badge is in supply already and we have stock?

Oh, I hadn’t twigged the badges were entirely new. Well, that’s just a missed opportunity.
