Ditto here, hence the move down under. It seems there has been quite an exodus, not just from the Service but from the country as a whole. Sad really when you consider that most of us joined up not just for the pay but to actually serve a country we are now more than happy to abandon to its fate.
One thing I find indicative of the rapid demise in the RAF is not just the number of people submitting their PVR paperwork but those who are so keen to get out they are leaving a couple of years ahead of an option point. For all intents and purposes, these people are paying to get out of the mob.
