LE
This is taken from me reading/witnessing the bitching being done on another thread.
We in the RAMC are seeing more and more non-RAMC LE MSOs entering. Now I have seen some damn good ones and I have seen, to be frank here, some dross that should never have got past the rank of Cpl, let alone got a Queens commission!
So is this the "right thing" for the RAMC to do? Invite non-medical types into the RAMC who have 20 odd years working in Infantry/other Corps/Arms and no idea of the working of the RAMC? Will it bring their "transferable skills" to our Corps or is this wishful thinking? Or will we it be seen as the easy way to gain a commission and "pump up" your pension?
I have some forthright views on this but will let others start the bitching first
