all Warrant Officers were Corporals is a fact,
Pedant Mode On
Wind the clock back 30+ years there was a window of opportunity to remuster as a Court Stenographer. Memory is hazy here and I can’t remember if the window was open to all or just TG17. Again hazy memory but SAC’s on qualifying went direct to FS and Cpls to WO therefore an SAC could make WO without passing through corporal rank.
Sod all to do with MAcr but then again a lot on this thread misses the point.
