Noor Posted 23 December , 2023 Share Posted 23 December , 2023 Hi all, I am trying to understand this officer service. I know in fact that; He completed his aviator training with Birmingham Military School 18-May-1916 (Maurice Farman biplane). Served with the 6 Squadron. at least until Aug-1916. and now I am guessing ARD - then he was sent to Aircraft Repair Depo? served also in depo at Ireland? 1919 transferred to RASC. He relinquish his commission 1920. Any help to read/understand his service would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TullochArd Posted 23 December , 2023 Share Posted 23 December , 2023 (edited) The two ARDs that get a mention are 8 (Irish) Aircraft Repair Depot, Baldonell (the site still operates as Casement Aerodrome and is the HQ and sole air base of the Irish Air Corps) which was operational from October 1918 and 5 (Eastern) Aircraft Repair Depot, Henlow in Bedfordshire (the site still operates today as RAF Henlow) which was operational from October 1918. I believe the No. 11 Irish Group RFC was based at Gormanstown Camp, Co. Meath Edited 23 December , 2023 by TullochArd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
