I feel for John having served for 23 years in a similar service (not sar) but a rescue service I to had a few injuries on duty lost my job by the last one, and go diddly for it o I did get a hand shake off the chief I spent 4 years fighting them and gave up it was not worth lowering myself to there devious ways in the finish
I know how you feel john all i can say is chin up and try to ride over it
my only blessing was that i was able to get my medical back and fly thank god but it is as you say faceless accountants or is it ass****tants
best of luck to him
