Dallas raises a very good (and pertinent) point. Earlier in my career the discussions were always Mess based. No way would an officer discuss such things with ORs, just not done. Same with SNCOs.....
Now it's open warfare and the powers to be must know, surely
I hear senior officers talking of their frustrations and desire to leave with whoever wants to discuss it.
I know it's been asked before but what are the current PVR rates compared to 2 years ago, 5 years ago, 10 years ago.
Is the rumour true that PMA are phoning up PVR applicants to "chat" about their reasons. When I left in 2005 I saw and spoke to no-one...
