Military Operation

Gaverick · 26 Sep 2007 at 13:09

Is there some operation going on today? I live on the coast and so far there has been 4 jets fly over my house pretty low within 30 minutes. They were heading in a westerly direction after just flying over the North Sea.

They're probably off training somewhere. I live near RAF Lakenheath and theyre always coming and going so they must be going somewhere... maybe a coast near you.

Well I live right on the coast

Maybe they're coming for me *hides stash of nuclear bombs*

Funnily enough the military don't tend to tell the world what they are doing on a day to day basis.
