Re: Richard J. Audet
Ranks can be confusing as there were at least 3 types!
Permanent rank, say Flying Officer; Temporary (or War Substantive) say Flight Lieutenant (one rank higher) and Acting say Squadron Leader.
When it came to pay and demob, it was the PERMANENT rank that applied...
Hope that helps explain why sometimes the ranks don't tally with Squadron Reports etc...
I'm sure some more expert Pal will clarify iff I have anything wrong!
