MoD CS, apart from the odd tosseur who might claim to be a 'Gp Capt equivalent' or whatever, provide pretty good value for money in support of the UK's Armed Forces.
A little banter is one thing, ignorant schadenfreude quite another....

Quite so, quite so: took me 35 years to get there, but yes, I sat above all the Wing Commanders, and below all the Group Captains, paid Group Captain messing, was paid a great deal less, was head of a large Met Branch BFG, and held a Dormant RAFVR commission as ........ Group Captain.

And yes, I once lived next door to the biggest "real" Group captain tosser imaginable: tried to ship the antique office desk to UK on service transport when his job was disestablished. Attempted theft: nobody but nobody turned a hair ......... that's a tosser.

And no, I never went on strike, and worked my balls off to serve the RAF.

Generalisations are generally inaccurate
