Well, as you are out, I wouldn't say you have been shafted;
but there is certainly a large proportion of currently serving who DO feel shafted. Their IPs at option points are now considerably less than what they were under the TACOS of the pension scheme when they joined. TACOS that were altered by the government despite those servicemen doing everything that was and is being asked of them.
Personally my IP is now a lot less than I had been planning on for my entire career and staying past my IP point is a lot less attractive under then new scheme. One of the major factors pushing me out the door.
