first posting -CHURCH FENTON

My first posting after trade training, 1972. Worked in Aero Med (nothing to do with Cas-evac flights!) in 2 hangar, between the Gym and flight briefing room.
Arrived as an LAC as my promotion had not come through, the ‘real’ RAF in my block could not understand how one week later I was sewing on Jnr Tech badges - “you cannot be a J/T medic!”
A bit of a shock going from an RAF Hospital with females and a 4 bed room to an all male station and back to 10+ in a barrack room. My only posting in 22 years that had aircraft – chipmunks. Enjoyed my time there.
