Hello All,
I'd like to pose a quick question borne out of recent experience and the announcement on the 11 February 2010 regarding the Changes to the way that the Army manages injured and sick personnel were announced by the Ministry of Defence.
I've heard the term One Army Concept banded around and my understanding is that there is a 5 year plan (almost at an end) to ensure that the way in which the TA and Regular Army are recruited including selection, physical assessments and standards, promotion, training and deployments are the same - IS IT?
How will the recent announcemenet affect (Will it affect) the TA for instance? Will our TA colleagues be subject to the same sickness and injury direction and policy, including those individual's who for instance have a medical catagory of P7 (perm or temp) or who cannot pass any of the required and mandated Fitness requirements?
