MoD have got a terrible employer record. 2 examples from a few years ago;-
Twins on a ship in Malta, father dies in Birmingham, UK. Told only one could be flown home to attend funeral, and they had to decide which. How heartless can you get?
I was on a naval shore base during the main leave period. My son was born premature; put in an incubator. He also had jaundice and breathing difficulties. The hospital asked me to attend for the last rites. I was told I couldn't be spared for the day (I went anyway, and an understanding officer didn't report the fact. The son grew into a strapping lad.)
Would you work for this employer who puts troops in Afghanistan and Iraq - yet doesn't supply them with the tools to do the job, leaving them to buy their own kit or scrounge from other nations troops?
