Rotary mate gets FJ crossover and gets picked up for promotion at the same time.

PMA: “We advise you turn down your promotion, get a tour in as a Flt Lt on FJ, then go for promotion again when you are more established “
RWM: “Didn’t realise it was an either/or situation”
PMA: “It’s not, just what we advise”
RWM: “So I can go FJ, get my first tour in as a gash shag Sqn Ldr with no other responsibilities? I’ll take both please”
PMA: “No, that’s not what we……bugger”
