I know of combat medics who have had to sit the Senior First Certificate course to get work outside of defence simply because the defence qualification was not recognised.
Except we see doctors, as in the kind that went to (civilian) uni for 6 years then did an internship in a hospital for a year then went into a college, practiced as a registrar for several years then sat exams to be a consultant. Most of the avmed doctors I've seen are civilian guys but a couple are uniformed.

Real doctors - We're not checked out by somebody that did a 2 week flu-vax course.

Back to my original point - wasting:

(a) My time & money,
(b) Some doctors' time that could be spent seeing an actual sick person, and
(c) Increasing the admin for everybody.
