Appendix

 

The following served on the Permanent Staff during the period 1955 – 1958. In order to avoid monotony, many of the junior ranks exchanged jobs from time to time. Those concerned are shown in the jobs they did longest. Those whose stripes were a little insecure are shown in the rank they held on departure!

 

No attempt has been made to include in this appendix, or in the text, any of those who have from time to time been temporarily attached to this unit, although several appear by chance in the photographs.
