TG10 is/was RAF Admin, the chaps who used to run Guardrooms, guard duties etc. The trade was discontinued in the 90's and they were offered redundancy or assimilation into TG17; some remained in TG10 but would never have been signed on beyond their extant TOS. I think they're all gone now!

Off Topic AFAIK only the WOs were allowed to remain as RAF Admin. The last 2 get their redundancy pay-outs in a couple of weeks. We should never have got rid of them. I've only just managed to avoid being sent on the DI course myself, and units are poorer places without people to paint the grass green, etc.

I never knew there were different rules for medals on No1 and Mess Kit. Thought the Saudi & Kuwait ones were just for display and were not to be worn. I take it you can get miniature versions then?

Aye you can wear ones from other nations on mess dress, I got minatures from the BX on my last trip to Sig, you can get them on yank ebay if you are that way inclined.

 

[roverboy]

Only 3 in 17 years - Queen's G. Jubilee, Air Ops Iraq & Long Gong. Mind you that's more than Cosford's Commandant's got - check it out!!!!!!

It may be a bit useless but surely he deserves respect for one thing..

No long service and good conduct medal...... What did he do?

Officers don't get the LS&GC but they can wear them if they received them before being commissioned.

I've only got the LS&GC and Golden Jubilee and I'm happy.

 

[Wing boy]

Ah poop, I thought we would read summat juicy about an Air Commodore.

 

[binar_one]

Got 4 in 17 years, It's not going to go to 5 as I was caught!!!

Don't get me wrong, I've only got 1 campaign medal, but he reminds me of Melched in Black Adder goes forth when he said "don't worry I'll be right behind you when you go over the top, several hundred miles behind".

Whilst we're on the subject, where did Prince Charles get all his???????

 

[MyShineyAr$e]

If you're talking about the guy who's currently OOA in the Balkans that's not technically true. He was a FS when TG10 were assimilated into TG17, so on paper he's TG17. The fact that he's only ever done TG10 jobs is irrelevant. He could be your Chf Clk one day.

Off Topic Not my Chf Clk, but my SWO. You wouldn't beleive how calm the place is at the moment.

Back on subject, I'm a clanger with 2 to show for 9 years of servitude. Op BOLTON and Op ALTHEA. Stores weren't going to mount my ALTHEA one I had to provide them with proof I could wear it!!!

Really? I haven't fought that battle yet. Where do I find the proof? I'm assuming it hasn't made it into the Vol 4 yet.
