timzsta,
I'm amazed that you paid the idiots. When I left, I was sent a bill a couple of months later for £176.42 for a C126 I had signed for the loss of my cold weather flying jacket and a couple of T shirts. Christmas Leave had meant it had not been processed in time for my final pay.
They got a damned good ignoring.........and the letter is framed in my downstairs bog alongside my commission.
If the facts of this case are as stated in the press, then it is a disgrace, and needs sorting out by president Tone himself.
I find it a little suspicious that there is only one instance from the number so unfortunately killed in this conflict.
