R.A.F. Can.—Monthly Strength of Officers, W.O.’s N.C.O.’s & Men, Cadet Pilots, Cadet Observers
All posting of mechanics and of cadets throughout their training has been carried out by this unit. The records of the training of mechanics, and their progressive history from station to station, have been maintained by the individual card system. A complete history of each cadet from the time he first made application until the time he proceeded overseas, through every stage of training and every movement, has been kept in minute detail.
New departments required organization to deal with pensions and other subjects on which there was very little information available; while the work of handling other sections, such as, discharges, was continually on the increase.
In many cases the forms called for by K. R. were not available, new forms being printed locally, also those used by the Medical Services, which, although provided by the Canadian Militia, were often not applicable to Imperial requirements.
It is found, however, on demobilization, that the records are in excellent shape, and that the information at the disposal of this office is complete.
Space does not permit of the printing of the hundreds of individual names making up the personnel of those committees in various towns to which the Corps is so greatly indebted, but to each and all, the General Officer Commanding tenders in the name of the Royal Air Force, his most sincere and hearty thanks for work, without which such progress as may be credited to the brigade could not have been achieved.
