I must admit that I did not consider that he might of been in the intructional cadre, rather I thought the length of assignment could of been down to aircraft unservicability, instructor availabilty or even shortage of aviation fuel as the war entered it's final stages.

There is nothing I can glean from his Soldbuch to indicate he might of been in an instructional post however, it is certainly a possibility as you have alluded to.

Anyway, thank you as always for your input Larry.

Regards Richard.
