Darlingest Bossy-poos,
I have the honour to request that, owing to the decision to scrap the Nimrod MRA4, the RAF offers me one of the following options:
1. The specific job for which I was 'encouraged' to amend my employment, requiring me to agree to a 6-year Return of Service obligation.
2. If this job, through no fault of mine, is no longer available, then my RoS agreement is clearly null and void. In which case I ask for your support in releasing me from a Service which no longer enjoys my interest.
I have the misfortune to be,
Sir,
Your obedient but highly pissed-off servant,
letsgoandfly
