Surely not just Mining

The phrase is certainly used in British military circles with a similar meaning, especially in connection with RAF bases. See for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MDP_Wethersfield https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Membury https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RM_Chivenor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Digby 212.159.44.170 (talk) 12:00, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Not just mining at all. 90.254.56.150 (talk) 22:17, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
