SAM
I was neither a met man nor civil service; I know wg cdr Wilby, but not by the sobriquet that you use (and you've been told before about naming names and uncomplimentary observations and comments, so desist
).
My allegiance and friendship was with the squadrons on which I served, and to the other operational squadrons - including the Rocks - so it is unlikely that I would have noticed you as you were a lowly ops officer. Anyway, I didn't mix with naughty boys socially and had very few reasons to go anywhere near ops wg.
