RC(N) did say that it “Should be available” in about 2 weeks, not that it “will be”.
I can understand @AlexCorbin frustration. If they don’t know when it will be announced then just say ‘in due course’. It’s frustrating when you’re given timeframes that aren’t adhered to.
Im just a very impatient person ha
Is the timeline spoken about for Beards being allowed or CFCs being made official?

In all seriousness, ref it being sent out.
Do you reckon whoever has hold of it is waiting until the RAF 1358 is updated?
I don’t know the state of play with it but it was last updated in Feb.
I hope not. If we are, it will have to go back to the drawing board as they will need to carefully select which changes, that don’t apply to our organisation in the slightest, they need to needlessly copy and paste over. It’s an arduous task.
If you’re old enough to grow it, I doubt you have a choice.
I’d be somewhat surprised - given that this is a major revision ( i.e. it actually contains new policies instead of just being a tweak of para numbering or to add photos or such like) that ours comes out before 1358.
That said, the draft version of 1358C does not currently include beards. So clearly things are not quite there yet.
