Re: 2 gazettes for the same rank??
Confusion ….
I have 2 examples where Flt.Lt B. Hoare, 23 squadron was awarded the 'Temp' rank of Sqn Ldr. I am reading this wrong? https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/...35383/data.pdf https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/...35727/data.pdf Thanks Danny

Re: 2 gazettes for the same rank??
The first promotion (Dec 41) was as a temporary S/L which means he could return to being a F/L if he stopped doing whatever job carried the S/L rank
The second (July 1942) was to war substantive rank which meant he was then a S/L for as long as the war lasted (or he got further promoted) Martin
