I membri delle forze di difesa criticano il comportamento “elitario” e “arcaico” da parte di alcuni alti ufficiali

>Members in attendance at the conference appeared to agree, with a motion passed seeking to “cease the practice of our members catering to the needs of commissioned officers during meal times to reflect a modern Defence Forces”.

>Introducing the motion – the third such one in the last five years – a delegate told of the rigorous training that one must go through as a member of the Defence Forces: “Why is it that these people, trained in logistics from the beginning of their careers, end up spending most of their time cleaning private cabins and toilets of commissioned officers, running around the ship to figure out their meal preferences and setting up the officers’ mess table to a standard that could rival any hotel?”

Funny, they don’t mention that on back of the bus recruitment ads.

*Another member at the conference said they had experienced demeaning demands from officers to heat their butter so it could be spread, along with shining their cutlery and fetching napkins.*
