Thread drift but slightly related to the topic of airborne signallers.
I was watching the Elton John film 'Rocketman' at the weekend and his dad was shown in a flashback wearing a Signaller brevet.
My immediate reaction was "oh here we go, some costume designer in movie la la land has just reached for the first blue uniform in the box..."
So when researching his dad later on, I was pleasantly surprised to see that Sqn Ldr Stanley Dwight was indeed a Signaller! (But the flashback scene shows him with an airman's capbadge on his side hat slung under his epaulette.)
London Gazette has him listed as a Fg Off in the Equipment Branch wef 1949. Could Elton John senior have been on post-war ABC duty??
This lockdown has led to research of the most tenuous RAF-connected things....
Flt Lt Stanley Dwight (Date unknown)
