G-B promotion

Gaiger-Broad was promoted air cdre on 1 Jan 75 and retired on 3 Oct 77 (his 55th birthday no less).

I know he had been Director of Recruiting as Gp Capt but can't remember what his appointment was in Germany.

Yes, Teeteringhead, Old-Duffer was a sqn ldr then (think seniority was 1/1/76 iirc). Pay was £5103 per annum on appointment to acting paid rank (29/7/75) probably the pay of a sqn ldr per month now!!!??? Unfortunately and just because I was a complete incompetent, it was a long time before I troubled a further promotion board unduly!!

However, this thread is not about me - thank God - far too boring.

O-D
