"09.0108.For Service personnel serving on temporary assignment accommodation charges will be raised as follows:
a. When public accommodation is used at the temporary assignment unit:
(1) Service personnel who occupy SLA at the place of temporary assignment will, unless otherwise exempt under the terms of these regulations, pay the charge appropriate to the SLA occupied."
So can someone just clarify a point here. Prior to going OOA, for example, you have to do a few pre-deployment training courses. Now if you live in a quarter or your own house, you end up having to pay for food and accommodation. just for the priviledge of going to the sandpit.....thanks a million.
It seems utterly riduculous, it's bad enough for me at my rank, let alone the poor chaps in the ranks who are hardly paid buckets.
Oh well, with these constant erosions of quality of life it won't be to difficult to maintain the reductions in manpower.
It's true what they say "if you want loyalty......buy a dog".
