On fraud, an airman at Wittering was courtmartialled for a false leave travel claim.

As he reached the end of his leave year he realised he had two warrants left. He then claimed two return journeys over one weekend.

His downfall is that he was seen by an RAFP at the airmans' bash on Saturday night

And the meat of to offence?

He had claimed for the two return journeys to Birmingham!

Forgoodness sake he could have done the two journeys as day trips. I think he was done as he probably admitted the offences. But the cost of the courtsmartial compared with the claims? And to cost of the court staying in the George at Stamford?

OK, rules have changed but it just proves how we spend to prove regardless of cost.
