I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Ah, clearly a well organised change better than the Binbrook system. Instead of the whole station adopting the new wing system in one go we do it by stages and differently.

Move Supply from Admin to Eng. Change Eng to Eng and Supply. Slip in Forward and Back (I Know what it really is). Rename in Logs etc.

Then for fun get rid of Admin Wg.

As a secret tea base in Lincolnshire they are now Base Support Wing. How about the handful of other stations? Can't remember what happened to PMS but, as I said earlier, PSF changed to PSF.

Silly to chanhe to HR as this might then mean being taken in to the civil service HRMS

So, is there a common set of names for the new EAW structure or are all the stations making it up on the fly?

Oh for the days when all the bomber stations had common telephone directories - some of these legacy numbers are still in use today - x301 x 302 for Ops, x437 for SOPO. x314 for photographic. MT was another common number as were the sequence for sqn 1, sqn 2 and sqn 2. Made life simple when moving between stations on postings of diversions. Now the guy who dreamt that up and implemented it deserved a medal. - Probably Broadhurst
