Your lucky after over thirty three years I got didn't get a badge , really upset now (not) you must remember now since JPA took over (or should I say a company set up by ex senior military personnel happy to sell us down the river so long as they have a well paid job) nobody cares they completely messed up my records I didn't have a single qualification according to them but they're civvies go home each night and drink horlicks to live withthemselves.
you will now have the experience of keeping a close eye on your payout and pensions though I did get good service from the pensions people when JPA messed up again.
