I was originally on deferred service in the RAFVR. Along with many other aircrew trainees 'in waiting' I was transferred to the Army in '45. Did my trade course (tactical sketching) at Byfleet. Served in India with the 928 Transport Company which went through several changes in designations - Motor Ambulance, tank transporters and finally Field Butchery at Calcutta.
Our CO was a Captain Smith and CSM was Tony Collett.
