As for the DEC I reckon there is still a need. Both for BRK and permanent. FR will try to put you on a BRK contract since they can do whatever they want with you then. I do believe that permanent contracts are available as well. As for the cadets you will most likely be sent to DUB on a BRK contract. Try to resist and get a permanent contract somwhere else instead. The situation in DUB is bad as it is...
