Very spooky, my son got to final selection week for the RAF @Cranfield and was failed on the last day for marginal colour blindness. He subsequently had independant tests, which he passed, and is now pursuing a commercial flight licence.

If he had gone to Cranwell instead of Cranfield he might have had more chance of passing.

I think he was probably unlucky in his timing, in the olden days if it was marignal he would have had the opportunity to appeal and get a specialist opinion - however, in these days of a small RAF getting smaller day on day - any reason to chop applicants will probably be taken as supply is much bigger than demand (unlike 1980s) - I hope he has good fortune in his civvy flying career.
