NURSE
I suspect that you must be in the Army. I am afraid that you are wrong wrt standards being dropped to enable the RAF to achieve Army standards and flatter yourself when comparing Army and RN medics in the same sentance. I would agree that the RN medic when fully trained is a formidable animal.
I also suspect that you have never served at DMSTC under RAF command and would be interested to hear what hugh errors have occurred since they took their turn.
