Today’s Operational Honours List yet again reflects the value placed on, and the well deserved recognition given to the RFA and it’s people, no longer are we the “Silent Arm of the Senior Service“. It gives me a great sense of pride to make this announcement.
Captain Shaun Jones OBE
Chief Officer S K Booth CJO Commendation
First Officer D K Vernoum CJO Commendation
First Officer A C Day Fleet Commander Commendation
PO F Strachan Fleet Commander Commendation
What is also worth a very serious mention is that it not just the “Other Bu*g*rs Efforts” that are being recognised, the “Other Bu*g*ers” have been properly recognised (Thanks to Dave Gerrard for that thought)
On behalf of the RFA Association I offer squillions of BZs to all the recipients of these well deserved awards
Have a look HERE for the full list of awards.
And more BZs
Have a shufti at Honours and Awards (2.36 MB) for the extract from JSP 761 Honours and Awards in the Armed Forces.
