Qualifications...?

I've always found it absolutely astounding that the most highly trained and skilled individuals in the military (pilots of course!) leave with not a single recognisable civilian qualification.

This goes counter to the fundamental military claim used in every recruitment campaign for decades, that you will 'learn a trade' which will equip you well for civilian life.

The argument that it is 'not in the military's interest' to give you civilian qualifications because you might leave would certainly not stand the test of EU employment law.

Has anyone ever sought redress for this dire state of affairs?
