Hi All,
First post on this Forum so I'll start with an apology as I know this will start the old sweat SNCOs moaning.
I've just got my 3rd, and yes, I did receive my £250 Mess Dress Grant. As my place seems to be pretty poor at disseminating information, can anybody please give me the gen on getting a Mess Dress uniform. What exactly do I need to get, can any of it be bought from service sources (I heard you can get shirts), and what exactly do I need in the form of shoes/shirts/medals etc.
Also, I realise this new grant is supposed to help newly promoted SNCOs, but as it's only £250 and the average price seems to be around £450 WITHOUT shirt/shoes/medals, does anyone know any more about this supposed new contract for issuing a mess dress uniform, and can I just get one issued and give the grant back?
Cheers all, any help on this subject would be greatly appreciated (and if you want some extra brownie points and a few beers, anyone got a 2nd hand set for sale that would fit my 6'3 height?
