PPS More contumacious than tenacious, toi!
[kon-too-mey-shuhs] –adjective
stubbornly perverse or rebellious; willfully and obstinately disobedient.

The definition sounds like me as a Pilot Officer, Flying Officer and early Flight Lieutenant; maybe I never grew out of it in later life?!!

Thanks for the new word in my vocabulary as I'd never heard that one before

Well you said it, and I thought you would probably have to look it up, like everything else apparently, FTR - check the anagram of your Monniker No 4 while you're about it....

If you still haven't hoisted in what I've been saying, take a tip from Navaleye and Mech One, give us (and yourself) a break, and realise that perhaps not many of us are remotely interested in correcting you about the definition of the new-fangled Naval Service and your detailed and nugatory research into it ***. We have just been trying to help you to understand correctly the time-honoured link between the RN and the RM, so succinctly summed up by Navaleye.

PS*** And ditto for the Diabolical Analytical Services Agency .....

Eh? Non comprendo Hablo muah poco espaniiol?

By the way, because you say Naval Service is "New Fangled" and you dissagree with DASA's labels that it is purely a matter of you both going into denial??

No thanks FTR, service numbers don't travel too well until the ink is thoroughly dry.
