Irrespective of how long the course at Shrivenham lasts, it still seems a pretty good short-cut to becoming a major when one consider what other officers have to do to reach that rank or its equivalent!

Probably not, excuse my old terminology, but he'd have been commissioned as a Late Entry SSC Capt, then assuming good reports, been selected for a QM commission and promoted to Major 3 years later, so they are probably just not penalising him. He does seem highly regarded.
