Yes they won't actually have to attend the drill hall at all, so the heating will be on for no one - it's still a waste

All TA training mate.

Well I keep seeing dwindles of fresh TA meat coming into pirbright every week, so they haven't stopped just yet...

This isn't the sort of news you'll see on MoD's website but it is filtering down the chain of command. Some COs took calls yesterday. Your OCs should have it by the time of next week's drill night. I suggest you turn in to hear what's to be said.

If the stories were untrue I'd have expected government spokesman to have come out said so by now.

out of interest, what about otc's? they still have 100 mtd's a year and they still get paid for at least part of their adventure training

I've just had the call from my CO, the official memo from the CoC is now on my DII, I've got to go in and read it so I can brief my unit tomorrow.

OTC's will be ok.

Words fail me.
Pish :(

Looks like my plan for Remembrance Sunday is to tip up in Blazer and beret, pay my respects, then go down a legion and drink to the honourable TA soldiers who have served and died before us until I don't care any more.

Government? Wouldn't piss on them if they were aflame

What about our Recruits in the system?

If they have more than 6 months between phase 1 and 2 then they have to re-do phase 1 apparently.

Can't see many recruits coming back after these '6 Months'.
