I'm originally from (born and raised in the UK, in Alconbury) and was stationed in (got US citizenship and joined the USAF) the Tri-Base area. Although I was mostly stationed at RAF Alconbury right next to my house, the shots of Mildenhall bring back memories. I haven't been there in a long while. It's still cool to see video of my home area. West Cambridgeshire isn't exactly an area a lot of KZreadrs film. Thanks CobraEmergency.

Interesting to see the NATO AWACS at Mildenhall. It seemed to be over the southern north sea Tuesday. Spectators at RAF Coningsby were joking that it probably had the thankless task of trying to organise the practice flypast for the Kings Coronation as there were so many aircraft to get lined up ready for the dry run.

It's fascinating to see cars on USA plates driving around the UK. I've seen plates with "US GOVERNMENT" on the top driving around near Lakenheath, in fact one was behind me in traffic. It was quite surreal to have that in my mirrors. Also, I've even seen cars on USA plates driving around Riga, and once (unrelated) a car on NSW Australian plates driving around Dublin.

It makes no sense to import American vehicles. The troops stationed wouod be driving their own right hand drive vehicles anyway so all this does is ensure that they are waging money away on imported vehicles+parts and I suspect that’s why some look like they belong in a scrap yard.

The locals have been living with it for 70 years so know what to expect. The aircraft noise on take-off from the F15 and F35 aircraft at the sister base at Lakenheath is the worse, as they can easily be heard from 12-15 miles away. Generally the fast jets don't fly at weekends because of this.

Still put up a few emergency services things here and there, when I can. It requires a lot of patience as you can't get notified of things to film in the same way you can with military exercises, VIP events, and aircraft/ship movements. I used to spend a good 8 hours wandering around cities, finding emergency services, and things to film, and since 2020, the videos haven't done as well. I'm hoping to find some new emergency services things to film at some point - just waiting for something to present itself. That and with budget cuts everything's down scaled a lot.

Because American equipment is the best. There's a reason Europe throws American technology into their vehicles. What's one of the most complex things in a vehicle? Probably the powertrain right, engine and transmission? Guess where Europe gets transmissions for their heavy duty and military vehicles. From America. Allison transmissions are in pretty much every heavy vehicle in Europe. Even the brand new Boxer, Piranha, Terrex armored vehicles have an allison in it. Europe can make engines etc etc but when it comes to complex things like automatic transmissions they get it from the U.S.
