R.A.F. Music Choices of the Sick and Twisted Kind.

On Desert Island Disks this morning SAS soldier Andy McNabb chose Phil Collins "In the air tonight" as one of his records.

This is wrong for several reasons, not in the least because it's unkind to inflict Phil Collins on people at any point of the day, but especially first thing in the morning. More specifically however, it's wrong because of this:

The reason he gave for choosing it was that during the Gulf War the Royal Air Force played it as background music to a sequence of images of target 'acquisitions'.


Hello???

That's just seven shades of wrong...
