Thanks very much for your posts...

From the research I have been doing it does appear that its a royal navy air mechanic (Engines). This rank was instituted between 1936 until 1947.

Hopefully the report back from the MOD might provide some further info.

Many thanks

Hi,

I'm currently researching the service history of my granddad who served in the navy during WWII. He died out of service when my mother was very young so we don't have too much information about his service. I have applied to the MOD with little details that we do have.

From an old photo of my grandad in his uniform is an embroidered propeller with the letter 'E' underneath. Any information about this badge would be really useful. See attached pic.

Also he has HMS Kestrel on his hat

Many thanks

Barney
