Free housing and private schooling? Since when were those part of the military package??
Without getting into semantics you summed up my point nicely. "Military package" is exactly what it is and therefore the point I was trying to make! You cannot tupe someone on a military package into a civi job! The cost would be prohibitive. And as none of the current military are contracted to do SAR but rather to be warfighters who do SAR until their next posting you cannot tupe them over. I have no idea if that's the real reason nor am I making a judgement on the rights or wrongs just my humble thoughts on the subject of Tupe.
