The re-written was how I understood it! Good job as the laptop was about to go through the window!
I think page 20 is the closest approximation to the situation I am in, replacing OR with Officer terms (38/16 vice 22/18).
All in all, not too bad if you have decent service under your belt and doesnt completely ruin the PA option, IF you plan to stay in till 55 on PA that is (am assuming the 75 pension is paid on final salary, not that at 2015?)
Its very confusing and I think the only way the military can deal with this is by providing a bespoke report of the scheme with realistic scenarios, for example PA for aircrew or promotion after 2015.
I am not going to hold my breath.
