Your opinion matters little. Interpretation of the regulations is what matters. You did not transfer, you left the forces, and 14 months later rejoined. As far as I can see the regulations have been correctly applied. You may warrant accelerated incremental progression, but you'll have to prove yourself first.

Do you have a written offer of retaining your increment level? If not, not very much you can do.

Look at the plus side though, if you use your prior experience wisely, you will soon be eligible for promotion and you will be paid more than a level 9 SAC anyway.

Best of luck with your Army career, be aware though, the Army does not and should not tolerate barrack room lawyers.

Thanks for the opinion and much appreciated and I can promise you that i'm no barrack room lawyer but this site can sometimes, more often than not, be like a very bad court room. Thanks again.

Are we that desperate for blokes we're recruiting RAF rejects?

At lest he didn't claim to be a LCpl equivalent.

Legs. This is the information I have and glad to have your opinion but believe me I have shown this to many different people within the Army, including officers and senior ranks, and they also admit that it's a grey area. This is the reason I asked for advice from someone who may know of someone or have had a similar situation. Thanks very much for taking your time to extract the information and taking the time to read through it. Guess I could always transfer back to the RAF, get my pay back then transfer back to the army. Maybe not..Lol. Thanks again

He was an SAC, not an SAC(T). I don't think stackers have the SAC(T) appointment. They go straight to fullscrew after 15 years

SAC(T) aren't LCpl equivalents either.....
