First time and to be honest only time I've seen a weapon when I was about 10..

in Hereford and it went to Amber alert, siren and my uncle came downstairs (we were staying for Easter) in Camo's which, I realised the RAF do wear, with a gun. It was all fine in the end but it was quite scary. Always remember wishing my Dad was there! He would have told his brother. Scary stuff really. But it was all fine.
