When he changed to a blue uniform and arrived at Odiham, he politely introduced himself to we Puma OCU staff as "Anthony".
He couldn't hide his true character...... or his thick Lancashire accent! He was teamed up with "BBS" as his QHI, as a challenge to both of them, methinks.
The Germany landaway was the final phase of the conversion course, to RAF Gutersloh. Of course, "Anthony" had been based in Germany in his AAC days, not too long previously and must have known the Corps area like the back of his hand, like all of us who had been based there. During a low-level navex, he needed to cross the high ridge to the north, via one of the narrow low-level routes.
Knowing the procedure, "Anthony" blind called on the "Corps common" frequency (255.1, IIRC, it's been nearly twenty five years):
"T'Bielefeld Gap, Puma, from t'north tert south, two minutes, Bielefeld Gap!"
From the ether, someone unknown cheerily replied:
"Ayup, Aajaaay!" 
And from that moment on, "Anthony" reverted to "Ajay" for the rest of his RAF career.
