Royal Navy Redundancy


Royal Navy  Redundancy

A Forces  Redundancy Calculator is available on the MOD website which gives a forecast of benefits for prospective redundees under the Forces Redundancy Programme announced.The calculator allows Service personnel to input their details to provide a forecast of their redundancy and pension benefits based on the redundancy exit date and the promulgated redundancy rules.

Only certain trades, specialisms and ranks (known as fields) within the Forces will be considered for redundancy.
No qualified RAF pilots were included in the first RAF tranche of redundancies announced.

The MOD has taken great care to ensure that Forces personnel and their families are fully informed about the redundancy programme. They are aiming to give them a level of certainty about their future and inflammatory reporting is irresponsible and extremely unhelpful.

Forces Pay and Allowances


Forces Pay and Allowances

Robbing Peter to Pay Paul?

The MoD is struggling to tackle a £1billion a year budget deficit.
Currently all members of the Parachute Regiment’s 16 Air Assault Brigade learn how to parachute, including engineers, artillery experts and medics, as well as soldiers.
It means 4,756 soldiers currently get the supplement because of the specialist training, but the MoD wants to cut that number so they can avoid paying the bonus.
The wage cut has already been agreed by army chiefs, but the number of soldiers it is likely to affect has not been decided. some sources have suggested as many as 4,000 could lose the bonus, hitting privates who earn little more than £12,000 a year after tax the hardest.


"Taking it away would be tight-fisted and could have terrible ramifications.
"It isn't seen as a nice little earner. It's in recognition of a qualification. Being parachute-trained is at the core of what they do."
REDUCTION TO ALLOWANCES ALREADY IN PLACE

Soldiers serving on the front line in Afghanistan were told that while their operational bonus of £4,800 would be preserved when they returned home this would be swallowed up by allowance cutbacks.

Private soldiers serving in Germany and other foreign postings are going to be particularly hard hit suffering a £660 a year cut to their Overseas Allowance in addition to other reductions.

Officers and men serving in London have also been targeted with some experiencing a reduction of more than £2,800 as part of the £250 million reduction to the Armed Forces allowances bill.

It’s quite a hit to ALL Our Forces.When you add it all up it’s pretty drastic.

Sailors who return home from serving on board ships will now have to pay for some trips home after their annual number of free travel passes were cut from 12 to 10.

In some instances Navy ratings can be Drafted to a northern Scottish port such as Faslane and if they live in Portsmouth or Plymouth they will be faced with a substantial travel bill.

The first of the cuts to the 19 separate allowances will be made this April and then phased in over the next two years.

Families have already been hit by the £20 million cuts to boarding schools allowances who want to visit their children at school will face ever higher petrol bills with after the mileage they can begin claiming for doubled to 100 miles per single trip.


Examples of Cuts
Get You Home pay (Early Years)
Enables young service Personnel to get home to family and friends
No longer payable over age of 18 (used to be up to 21)
Saving: £2 million

Local Overseas Allowance
To cover additional cost of living abroad.
15 per cent reduction. Private soldier £10.01 to £8.15
Saving: £30 million

Recruitment and Retention Allowance (London)
Contribution to higher costs of living in London.
Removed from all over rank of corporal
Saving: £2.9 million

Food and Incidentals Allowance.
Paid to personnel on trips without access to service accommodation.
Reduced from £12.41 to £8.50 per day.
Saving: £11 million

Specialist Pay Reserve Banding
Specialists such as pilots, submariners receive allowance even when not operational.
Period it’s paid between non-operational postings reduced from six to three years
Saving: £10 million

In one breath the Government says how much it regards the Armed Forces then in another, albeit in times of stringency, it demands a reduction to their remunerations amounting to a £1,400 cut in income for every soldier, sailor and airman.

............................................................................................


These Incentives/Allowances and Pay are like everything else are subject to Review and have for years been reduced or replaced.The Pension System recently has come under Scrutiny as well.

Get you home pay  ... Mileage Allowance ... Travel Warrants ... and other Allowances Have all been Reduced over the Years.

Will they Reduce Submariners Specialist Pay as well ? They Have !

Specialists pay which submariners receive when not operational. Has been reduced  ... the Period it’s paid between non-operational postings has been reduced from six to three years.The Question at some time will have to be asked "How long are these Lads going to put up with this" ?



Allowances

Allowances are not designed for profit or as 'perks', nor are they to increase pay by 'other' means but are to make sure that Service personnel get extra money, which their salary doesn't cover, if special circumstances demand it.

Service personnel requiring assistance or information on issues regarding Pay, Pensions or Allowances should contact their Unit Personnel Office or the Joint Personnel Administration Centre (JPAC)

*Falklands War 1982*

Falklands War 1982





 The Falklands War (Spanish: Guerra de las Malvinas/Guerra del Atlántico Sur), also called the Falklands Conflict/Crisis, was fought in 1982 between Argentina and the United Kingdom (UK) over the disputed Falkland Islands and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands. The Falkland Islands consist of two large and many small islands in the South Atlantic Ocean east of Argentina; their name and sovereignty over them have long been disputed.

The Falklands War started on Friday, 2 April 1982, with the Argentine invasion and occupation of the Falkland Islands and South Georgia. Britain launched a naval task force to engage the Argentine Navy and Argentine Air Force, and retake the islands by amphibious assault. The conflict ended with the Argentine surrender on 14 June 1982, and the islands remained under British control. The war lasted 74 days. It resulted in the deaths of 257 British and 649 Argentine soldiers, sailors, and airmen, and the deaths of three civilian Falkland Islanders. It is the most recent external conflict to be fought by the UK without any allied states.


Two separate British naval task forces (surface vessels and submarines) and the Argentine fleet were operating in the neighbourhood of the Falklands, and soon came into conflict. The first naval loss was the World War II vintage Argentine light cruiser ARA General Belgrano. The nuclear-powered submarine HMS Conqueror sank the Belgrano on 2 May. Three hundred and twenty-three members of Belgrano's crew died in the incident. Over 700 men were rescued from the open ocean despite cold seas and stormy weather. The losses from Belgrano totalled just over half of the Argentine deaths in the Falklands conflict and the loss of the ARA General Belgrano hardened the stance of the Argentine government.

Regardless of controversies over the sinking, it had a crucial strategic effect: the elimination of the Argentine naval threat. After her loss, the entire Argentine fleet, with the exception of the conventional submarine ARA San Luis, returned to port and did not leave again for the duration of hostilities. The two escorting destroyers and the battle group centred on the aircraft carrier ARA Veinticinco de Mayo both withdrew from the area, ending the direct threat to the British fleet that their pincer movement had represented.

In a separate incident later that night, British forces engaged an Argentine patrol gunboat, the ARA Alferez Sobral. At the time, the Alferez Sobral was searching for the crew of the Argentine Air Force English Electric Canberra light bomber shot down on 1 May. Two Royal Navy Lynx helicopters fired four Sea Skua missiles against her. Badly damaged and with eight crew dead, the Sobral managed to return to Puerto Deseado two days later, but the Canberra's crew were never found.


United Kingdom – A total of 255 British servicemen and 3 female Falklands Island civilians were killed during the Falklands War.

  • Royal Navy – 86 + 2 Hong Kong laundrymen (see below)
  • Royal Marines – 27 (2 officers, 14 NCOs and 11 marines)
  • Royal Fleet Auxiliary – 4 + 4 Hong Kong laundrymen
  • Merchant Navy – 6 + 2 Hong Kong sailors
  • British Army – 123 (7 officers, 40 NCOs and 76 privates)
  • Royal Air Force – 1 (1 officer)
  • Falklands Islands civilians – 3 women killed by friendly fire
Of the 86 Royal Navy personnel, 22 were lost in HMS Ardent , 19 + 1 lost in HMS Sheffield , 19 + 1 lost in HMS Coventry and 13 lost in HMS Glamorgan. Fourteen naval cooks were among the dead, the largest number from any one branch in the Royal Navy.
Thirty-three of the British Army's dead came from the Welsh Guards, 21 from the 3rd Battalion, the Parachute Regiment, 18 from the 2nd Battalion, the Parachute Regiment , 19 from the Special Air Service (SAS), 3 from Royal Signals and 8 from each of the Scots Guards and Royal Engineers Only one dead was from the 1st battalion/7th Duke of Edinburgh's Own Gurkha Rifles.
Two more British deaths may be attributed to Operation Corporate, bringing the total to 260:

  • Captain Brian Biddick from HMHS Uganda underwent an emergency operation on the voyage to the Falklands, was repatriated by an RAF medical flight to the hospital at Wroughton where he died on 12 May.
  • Paul Mills from HMS Coventry suffered from complications from a skull fracture sustained in the sinking of his ship and died on 29 March 1983; he is buried in his home town of Swavesey.

    Relations between Argentina and UK were restored in 1989 under the umbrella formula which states that the islands' sovereignty dispute would remain aside.

During the Falklands war, British submarines were the first warships to reach the islands and began to enforce the Exclusion Zone around them. Of these vessels, H.M.S. Conqueror (Arrived 16th April) was the one to gain fame, becoming the first nuclear powered submarine to sink an enemy ship in combat. The diesel powered Oberon/Porpoise class H.M.S. Onyx (Arrived 28th May) served in a patrol area along with the two Swiftsure submarines: H.M.S. Spartan (Arrived 12th April) and H.M.S. Splendid (Arrived 19th April). As well as patrolling against Argentine submarines, these Submarines kept the Argentine carrier in dock, along with most of the Argentine Navy. Of those ships and submarines which made sorties against the Task Force, the British submarines prowled for Argentine ships outside the Total Exclusion Zone.

On 12th April, a 200-mile Maritime Exclusion Zone came into operation around the Falklands, this being changed to a Total Exclusion Zone on 30th April. Any Argentine vessels found within the zone were liable to be sunk without warning. The 26th April saw helicopters from the destroyer Antrim, the frigates Brilliant and Plymouth attack, damage and force the Argentinean submarine Santa Fe to run aground and surrender.

H.M.S. Conqueror On the afternoon of the 1st May, H.M.S. Conqueror sighted the cruiser General Belgrano, a World War 2 US-built warship lacking sonar, and its escort of two Exocet-equipped destroyers, which were a pre-eminent threat to the task force. The 2nd of May saw the War Cabinet clear the Conqueror to remove the Belgrano from the theatre. H.M.S. Conqueror fired a pattern of torpedoes from around 2,000 yards and scored two hits. The Argentine cruiser sank rapidly thereafter, although her escort did try to sink the Conqueror with depth-charges they were unsuccessful. The loss of one of its most prestigious units probably caused the Argentine Navy to recall its other units, including their only aircraft carrier, the Veinticinco de Mayo to port.

RN in Afghanistan

Naval servicemen adopt a defensive position during pre-deployment training


The Royal Navy deploys some 1,000 personnel every year to support UK operations in Afghanistan in a variety of roles. Though many will not leave their bases during a tour, all must be fully prepared for any eventuality.
Royal Navy staff serve in Afghanistan across a range of medical, administrative, logistical and tactical roles, both at the main operating bases, such as those at Camp Bastion and Kandahar, and the smaller forward operating bases.
The Royal Navy ensures that every naval serviceman or woman preparing to deploy to Afghanistan receives the same rigorous package of individual pre-deployment training (also known as OpTAG) as that undertaken by the Army.


Royal Navy Ships and Submarines are also Deployed in and around the Region .. For Security reasons they cannot be named here,they are there to back up the Land and Air Forces as required.The RFA also plays an important roll as well Delivering Logistical support.


The Royal Marines' 3 Commando Brigade is the Royal Navy's amphibious infantry on permanent readiness to deploy across the globe, and is a core component of the UK's Joint Rapid Reaction Force. Together the Royal Navy's amphibious ships and the Brigade represent a highly mobile, self-sustained and versatile organisation, with a strategic power projection capability that is unique among the British armed services.

Having arrived in Afghanistan and completed a final course of training and acclimatisation to prepare them for their six month deployment, the Marines headed from Camp Bastion to their base in Shahzad – which will be their home until October.During that time, 42 Commando (Cdo) will be working alongside members of the Afghan National Army  and Afghan National Police.
 
The unit, who are deployed as part of 3 Commando Brigade on Operation Herrick 14, have now assumed responsibility of Combined Force Nad-e Ali South, which they will command until September 2011.
They took over authority from The 1 Royal Irish, who have completed their tour of duty.

 
Commando Logistic Regiment Royal Marines (CLR RM) is situated at Chivenor in North Devon. It is home to about 620 personnel from all three services, including Mechanical Engineers, Medics and Logisticians. No other unit has such an eclectic mix of cap badges working together.
857 Naval Air Squadron consists of 3 Sea King Airborne Surveillance and Control (SKASaC) Mk 7 helicopters which traditionally embark in the duty Aircraft Carrier as part of a Typed Air Group (TAG). The Squadron  currently operates with 5 Pilots, 10 Observers, 1 Air Engineering Officer, 1 Intelligence Officer and 40 Maintenance and Support Personnel and are based at RNAS Culdrose, in Cornwall.


854 re-formed as a Squadron in December 2006.  Prior to this the Squadron had been working as 849 A Flight.  Operating the Sea King MK7; fitted with the Cerberus Mission and the powerful Searchwater 2000 Radar, the Squadron forms one half of the Royal Navy’s frontline Airborne Surveillance and Control (ASaC) capability.


847 Naval Air Squadron is a squadron of the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm. It operates the Westland Lynx AH7 helicopter and provides armed reconnaissance and light assault support to 3 Commando Brigade Royal Marines. The squadron was previously known as 3 Commando Brigade Air Squadron, from which it re-formed on 1 September 1995.The squadron is based at RNAS Yeovilton in Somerset.


After Operation Veritas, the attack on Al-Qaeda and Taliban forces following the 9/11 attacks in the United States, it emerged that HMS Trafalgar was the first Royal Navy submarine to launch Tomahawk cruise missiles against Afghanistan,.HMS Triumph was also involved in the initial strikes.

Armed Forces Pensions


Career Transition Partnership (CTP)



The Ministry of Defence confirmed the final details of planned changes to forces pensions today.
A new armed forces pension scheme comes in from April 2015, bringing with it big changes to how pensions are calculated and when they are paid.
From April 2015 the Future Armed Forces Pension Scheme comes into effect, replacing the various current schemes.
The main changes are:
- It is no longer a final salary scheme, but is based instead on career average salary.
- The pension age rises from 55 to 60.
- The Early Departure Payment is still available at 40, but service leavers can opt to swap it for bigger pension payments later.
Almost 15,000 currently serving personnel will be exempt from the changes because they are too close to retirement age.
There are still details to work through, and it still has to get through parliament, but the experts say they are broadly happy with the deal.
It is just seven years since the last major changes to the armed forces pension scheme, but there is a promise of no more changes for the next 25 years.
