I'd double check your info if I were you.
We had a lad in our section with 6 years left to serve of his contract PVR on the Monday and leave the RAF on the Friday into his new job recently, from a trade that doesn't have any planned redundancies.
There are exceptions and ways to get around what the 'official line' is and most decent employment lawyers can run rings around the MoD. Hell, we have major changes made to our working processes (such as JPA) without being invited to sign a new contract.
