So after a bit of looking around, and a lot of phonecalls, I'm currently unitless. My application never reached my intended Bde, I'm not on the general list in my old brigade, never mind unit. So I'm not posted in 1bde, 2bde or DFTC or on general list for them either. Interesting times ahead!
Maybe time to turn these fantasia forces into a reality!
Just call 2Bde RDF HQ in CBB and tell them where you put on your application and that its not your fault it was lost and they will slot you in somewhere even on an SWA. as long as you are Pte or Cpl there are slots available not on the SWA list, if above these ranks its probably SWA list until dust settles.
You may have already done this, but thats how i did it, he said no appointment, i said but i sent it in, then he asks where did i apply, i told him and hey presto im in a unit - my second choice albeit, but still i have a home for now.

"He is an enemy officer taken in battle and entitled to fair treatment."
"No, sir. He's a sergeant, and they don't deserve no respect at all, sir. I should know. They're cunning and artful, if they're any good. I wouldn't mind if he was an officer, sir. But sergeants are clever."

Jaysus.... heard yesterday that a form is coming out which basically will be looking for feedback from personnel on the re-org process
Unsure if this is being initiated by RDFRA or the MA... could be some interesting answers on those...
"Well, stone me! We've had cocaine, bribery and Arsenal scoring two goals at home. But just when you thought there were truly no surprises left in football, Vinnie Jones turns out to be an international player!" (Jimmy Greaves)!"

You realise those 2 units (the Bde RDF HQs) no longer exist?!
Selling yourself cheap there, Infy. The tight hoor can afford at least mint Viscounts... Mmm...

Any decent unit would be offering fig rolls. But only Jacobs. Not McVities.
Now you're talking...

Lads, start offering biscuits, and as shown above, tea follows, and next thing you know is you have a whole new generation of pudgy biscuit eating, tea drinking story tellers who will bring about the second fall... and you will have no one to blame but yourselves. DOOM!!! DOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!

The phone numbers are still being answered. I just copied from a different site.
