In the mid sixties I submitted a "redress of grievance", having been totally stitched up etc. etc. Some months later I was called into the adjutants office and told that, whilst I had an excellent case and everyones sympathy, "The Army doesn't like a soldier that complains". So, on his recommendation, I dropped it and, in todays vernacular, 'moved on' Be very sure you want to see this through and be prepared to accept that whatever the outcome it will rest as a black mark on your file, rightly or wrongly, Army, Navy or Air Force.
