It first became an issue of discussion when there was talk (very brief I'm glad to say) of merging the supply and engineer branches; and proposing to allow suppliers to hold down engineer posts.
Ah, if at first a frontal assault fails lets try the back door. "I know, we will let you take over Supply. You can be called OC Eng and Supply Wg. How's that Sir?"
Later, tears (sic although I initially meant years) later, "We need a bit of reorganisation for this new EAW concept, let's call you OC Forward Sir. You can sort the engineering on any deployed kit. All the other stuff like stores and jets in the shed? Oh we'll call that the Logistics tail, need an OC Logistics Wing though. Yes Sir, I guess he could be a supplier."
Fiction, mmm, well just watch. As for a supplier signing off a 700, no problem, you've got JEngOs and SEngOs for that. Supply could take all the non-signing jobs like OC the Wg.
