Sitting (physically) closer to the higher echelons of the RAF than I have in previous years, I would have to say that your description applies pretty well to the RAF. With the advent of DII and mostly open calendars, the facts are there for anyone with a DII account to see.
What I don't quite understand is how the pay and pensions of our senior leaders are calculated. Are they still paid full wack on retirement? 80%? Or are those days long gone?
