Reputationally, this sad incident will not do the RAF any good
Quite the opposite. People reported the problem and it was dealt with. In many other walks of life, colleagues would have frowned, gossiped, and done nothing about it, and anyone who did try to take action would been the unpopular one.
I'm honestly quite surprised he was grassed up even in the military, to be honest. Good grief, if you lot were any straighter...
