quarters with other trainees.
A Royal spokesman said: “He has passed everything asked of him so far. He is now trained to fly a helicopter at an advanced level and the next step is to learn the search and rescue side, which is what he will be doing at RAF Valley.
“This will see him training over the mountains of Snowdonia and off the coast of North Wales. He will probably remain at the base until August or September, at which point he will receive his first posting.”
I wonder where and how long he will be posted after this training. In the Falklands perhaps? In any case good luck to him

The Falklands are one of the possibilities. The other are one of the SAR bases in UK or in Cyprus...

Cyprus sounds good too. Aphrodite (the Greek goddess of love) was born there (hint hint)

Cyprus too close and could turn out as a place for vacation for some people, IMO. Falklands way better, "no man's land" and far far way...

far far away from you who  Might be a problem with the Argentinean government though. I remember they protested when it was rumoured Wills would go to the Falklands.

Congrats William Such a pity we have to hope he'll be posted far away to the Falklands, to be away from You know who. Or alternatively not be posted to a beautiful island of Cyprus, so that she won't pop over there come vacation time, or in fact, most of the time.!!!
