Gaining an RAF pilots brevet in WW2
I wonder under what circumstances an aircrew brevet once awarded could be, or was, "cancelled"?
My recollection is that reduction in rank could happen for a variety of reasons but the brevet???
Incidentally I know of a guy,who, sans brevet, was put in control of a Shackleton while the crew rested.He was on detachment from his SFTS at the time.He later got his brevet and became a Shackleton captain.
