All reasonable replies so far. It was a once-only offer, and we discussed the various implications at length here over many months.

However:

Sauce for the goose and all that. If it is OK for the MoD to say "you made your bed ....", why is it also OK for those currently serving on SSC, who made a reasonable election at the time to remain on AFPS75, to be told now that they can have a PC if they want one, but only if they agree to retrospectively change their election and transfer to AFPS05? A case of the MoD wanting to have its cake and eat it, I think. Moreover, it must be a considerable disincentive to those who might give a few more years now, but are not sure they want to commit all the way to 55.

Find me my gun, I feel a sudden need to shoot myself in the foot!
