"Troops may use pensions to buy homes"
An article, obviously based on a MOD press release, which sort of suggests that this may be a benefit to service persons.
"The Defence Secretary suggested that changes could be made in military pay rules to help more service personnel buy properties"
Doesn't say why they would need to!
"Part of the new model for military careers would involve more personnel buying their own homes, instead of living in MOD accommodation"
Doesn't say that MOD accommodation would be withdrawn!
Transparent spin by the MOD Office of (Dis)Information and sadly swallowed, hook, line and sinker, by a gullible newspaper reporter.
