Ce mardi, des réservistes britanniques (Reserve Forces, 38 000 hommes et femmes) se sont rendus à leur travail en uniforme (voir la photo du MoD ci-dessus). Une façon
d'annoncer le Armed Forces Day du 25 juin.
Baptisée Uniform to Work Day, cette initiative lancée en 2008 permet de mettre un coup de projecteur sur les réservistes britanniques dont 24 000 ont pris part à des opérations
depuis 2003 (certains sont déployés dans le cadre de l'opération Ellamy, en Libye).

livery to celebrate 30,000h of flying, cumulatively, by the type, yielding this happy outcome
