You will all be pleased to learn, I'm sure, that we RNZAF people were issued a copy of Gp Capt Stradlings book at the "Charm School", but had to hand it back when we graduated, presumably having memorised the contents. We also had the cards, and the silver tray in the Mess to put them on.
On the subject of ID cards, I was in ANZUK for two years and initially occupied a MQ at 12 Hyde Park Gate , Seletar, at a time when the whole facility had been handed over to the Singapore Armed Forces. They had their own version of MPs on the gate, and were following the rules to the letter including saluting when I drove in and checking ID cards of dependents.
I discovered quite by accident one day that my wife, having lost her SAF Pass, was driving in and out by waving a Wellington City Library Card!
