An excellent documentary on life in an RAF Squadron in Bahrain during the time of
Operation Desert Shield. Good narration and insightful interviews.

The highlight for me is 7:00. The star being the Panavia Tornado in desert colors, skimming the desert surface at high speed. The other star being the RAF’s mobile catering unit. It is no mean feat feeding the squadron’s men and women 1,000 eggs, 250 pounds of meat and 50 loaves of bread. And that’s for just one day.
