That is unworthy of you.
As a minimum, RAF RPAS pilots must pass EFT (a bespoke course with more hours and skills than the current EFT).
Perhaps we should be looking at a "significant contribution to ops" medal? These guys & girls have done more than probably any other group to forward the operational outcomes of the war in Syria & Iraq. The fact that they don't get officially recognised for their outstanding and immensely difficult and personally onerous task is a disgrace.
