And of course, if a Fresco Fireman, be he squaddy or cloth-moth wearer, should pay the ultimate price on duty (ie - snuff it), he will be entitled to the same death-in service benefit (one-and-a-half times salary) as if he'd been killed in the war.... so that's all right then.

Nooooo it's not ...... the firefighter's death-in service benefit is FIVE times salary (as is the police I believe); and of course that's five times a bigger salary than many on Fresco..........

Amazing the trivia you pick up on resettlement briefings.......
