This is the best summary I could come up with:


A military judge has said RAF officers must stop exposing themselves to female colleagues, describing such behaviour as arrogant, juvenile, immature and not funny.

Assistant judge advocate general Jane England spoke as she dismissed an officer for exposing himself to two civilian female bar staff as they worked at a military party.

Flt Lt Richard Aldridge, who had served in Iraq and Syria, was found guilty at a court martial of placing his testicles on a bar during a summer ball.

England, Britain’s only female military judge, said: “This is not the first case involving a male Royal Air Force officer at the mess.

During his trial at Bulford in Wiltshire, the military court heard the incident happened during an officers’ mess event Aldridge helped organise at MoD Boscombe Down, near Amesbury.

At the sentencing hearing, prosecutor Maj James Eveleigh said the services have a “zero tolerance approach to sexual offences and inappropriate behaviour”.
