Another question.
If I transfer across I'll have a specialisation which exploits my previous experience in the regular service, that's not going to require me to have much to do with a parent unit, but the option is there.
So in RNR units what do the reservist officers actually do? Given that the unit has a full time staff officer and at least one SR is there much actual administration or is the main responsibility as a DO, organising?
The fact that I don't have this knowledge to hand possibly illuminates the separation between the regular and reserve, all my experience of reserves has either been in FTRS posts or within specialisation so general RNR discussion hasn't really come up.
