I had a " crisis of conscience" about PVR whilst on a very challenging, fulfilling and lucrative secondment overseas, the organisation of which offered me further promotion. My choice was to return to the RAF or jump ship.
Over a couple of bottles of wine I took a visiting VSO into my confidence as to my dilemma.
His response :
"Look, the RAF doesn't give a sh*t about you . Get out and get on with the rest of your life."
Which I did.
