I was NCA and having recently pressed the PVR button on JPA I would very much advise speaking to your desk officer and chain if command - I have never known things go so smoothly in my 10 years and everyone involved, from the Gp Capt downwards deserves my sincere thanks.
Let the powers that be know and, in my recent experience, they will help you out to the best of their abilities. All the best whatever you decide.
