Despite ongoing staffing struggles, the Defence Force has continued to discharge personnel for failing to get the Covid vaccine.
The case of Bonnie, a medic at Burnham Army Camp who was dismissed for not getting vaccinated, has caught media attention.
This comes after the Court of Appeal ruled that the Defence Force's 'mandatory retention reviews' were unlawful.

"To impose a blanket requirement across the entire Defence Force of 10,000 people and rigidly subject people to mandatory retention reviews is completely unjustified."
