    The History of XXVIII(AC) Squadron:

    Number 28 Squadron formed at Gosport on 7 November 1915 from a nucleus provided by No 22 Squadron. For 18 months it was a training unit before moving to Yatesbury in July 1917 and re-equipped with Sopwith Camels before moving to France in October. The Squadron had barely settled on the continent when it was moved to Italy, along with the British Expeditionary Force, to bolster the forces in that country. No 28 Squadron remained in Italy until February 1919 flying offensive patrols before returning home for the inevitable disbandment of the unit on 20 January 1920.
    Four months later, the Squadron reformed by renumbering No 114 Squadron based at Ambala in India, then equipped with the trusty Bristol Fighter and operating on the North-West Frontier as an Army co-operation unit. The 'Brisfits' soldiered on until September 1931 when Wapitis arrived, these in turn being replaced by Audaxes in 1936. It wasn't until September 1941 that "modern" equipment in the form of Lysanders arrived. These were used to support British forces in Burma fighting the Japanese advance until the country was over-run. The Squadron re-grouped at Lahore and co-operated in a series of exercises until the end of the year when it traded the Lysanders for Hurricane fighter-bombers. The 'Hurri-bombers' as they were known commenced operations over Burma in January 1943 and continued through to the Japanese surrender by which time No 28 had started to re-equip with Spitfires. The Squadron then returned to Burma as part of the permanent defence force before transferring to Hong Kong in May 1949 in light of the situation in China.
    February 1951 saw Vampires arrive and the Squadron on the move again, this time to Sek Kong where it remained for three years before returning to Kai Tak and receiving Venoms. The multi-role Hunter was taken on strength in 1962 before the unit was disbanded in December 1966. On 1 April 1968, No 28 Squadron reformed at Kai Tak, this time with Whirlwind helicopters. These were replaced by Wessex's in early 1972. No 28 was the last unit to leave the colony of Hong Kong before it was returned to Chinese control in June 1997 during which time it provided support not only to British forces, but local authorities on the colony. It was reformed again in 2000 to operate the first Merlin HC3 helicopters from RAF Benson, these arriving from January 2001 onwards. The first operational deployment by the squadron with its Merlins was made in 2003 when aircraft commenced operations in Bosnia.
    The Squadron was reformed again in 2001 at RAF Benson to operate the first Merlin HC3 helicopters. On achieving Initial Operating Capability, the first operational deployment commenced immediately with the Squadron deploying two aircraft to Bosnia in support of SFOR in Banja Luka. Since then the Squadron has gone from strength to strength, supporting helicopter operations worldwide including Operation TELIC in Iraq until 2009 alongside 78 Squadron as the Merlin Force. Following the drawdown from Iraq operations, the Merlin Force swiftly trained aircrew and modified the aircraft to cope with higher altitudes, and the Squadron deployed to Afghanistan in support of Operation HERRICK in November 2009 as 1419 Flight.

    什麼是考順(What is obedience to parents)?

    人時不時都需要照顧和關心.
    父母和子女亦然.
    物質與交談也是需要的.
    因各人所需不
    同,能力也不同,所以做法也不同.
    但我們也應該根據自己的情況去關心對方.
    而不在於誰出錢
    (物質)多少的問題,
    或誰有時間陪伴,
    誰無時間陪伴的問題.
    一個電話也可以是
    關心途徑之一.

    但換個角度來看,如果父母對子女的關心變成了Law Saw".
    便可能令雙方少交談,
    而去到"saw"離的地步

    因此,中庸之道和等待一個好時機會也是處理任何事情的方式之一.
    但這不是唯一比較好的辦法.人物性格,境況不同,處事方法也不同.

    1) 陪伴,accompany + 尊敬,respect + 不違背父母的意思,not against parents' words
    2) 養育,bring up/供養,Support + 尊敬,respect + 不違背父母的意思,not against parents' words


    我的想法,...
    例如,父母有數名兒子和女兒。
    兒子和女兒們可以據自己的生活條件去選擇以上不同組合的考順方式(1 or 2 or 1 & 2).
    可以說他們都是考順父母的人,沒有誰做多或誰做少的考量.
    My thoughts, ...
    For instance, a parents have several sons and daughters.
    According to sons' and daughters' own living condition, they can choose different combination of obedient actions(1 or 2 or 1 & 2).
    We can say that all of them are obedient to parents,the obedient index is the same on 1 or 2 or 1 & 2.
