VRT Officers

Okay, must admit I am a civvy through and through who was recommended by my CO to be a VRT Officer. Have bags of experience in a technical trade in civvy street and thought what the hell, give it a go. After reading RayDarr’s and other comments which I believe to be valuable, I find I am in a dilemma! Should I simply remain a C.I. or go for it?

Simple fact: When attending courses on RAF Stations in the past, I have been treated VERY courteously. Mess bill’s VERY cheap, and the best part was the conversations in the bar. Okay the price of the beer was excellent as well!!!

What I don’t want to do is trade this for a position where I would be considered third rate, and at best an annoyance to everyone from AC and above. Your thought and comments welcome…
