It's quite simple, we need more people than we currently have. If we have the right number of people to undertake all of the tasks, people won't feel over-stretch and they'll stay.
jayc530 I agree with you!
Alfred the not so great. I disagree.. They appear to be trying to be EU PC. The armed forces are not like civilians. The manning levels were cut back far too far in the first place; leaving them with the crisis levels we see today. No wonder experienced staff, having been undermanned for so long will not put up with it anymore.
Maybe you could take your own advice !
