SP, the whole bmi/bmir debate will cause instant friction. The sad fact is that it could all have been avoided with a clear transfer system between the two entities, perhaps in both directions, instead of the confused muddle it is.
Dishing abuse does not help. Interestingly I found the Navy to have very similar qualities to BM, ie 500 ish excellent boys and girls doing a difficult job in spite of the management. There are some top people in BM and I am, saddened by the prospect of not working with them again. Remember the enemy is poor management not your team members, wherever they may have come from.
