A Collection of Awards to the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers
Beschreibung
An unusual post-War 1971 Military Division B.E.M. awarded to Sergeant R. Bane, 7th Aviation Flight, Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers British Empire Medal, (Military) E.II.R. (19054121 Sgt. Brian R. Bane. R.E.M.E.) in Royal Mint case of issue, nearly extremely fine £100-£140 --- B.E.M. London Gazette 12 June 1971. The original recommendation states: ‘Sgt Bane is an outstanding Airframes and Engine Class I Air Technician with an exceptional sense of responsibility. Because of his special technical knowledge and background he was selected to join the newly forming 7 Aviation Flight in Berlin; a small independent unit unique in that it is remote from the nearest aviation workshop and is responsible for its own aircraft second line servicing. In his capacity as Crew Chief much of his work is out of normal working hours. He sets a remarkable technical standard, particularly in second line work, and his persistence in following through defects and servicing tasks, regardless of anything which might normally be regarded as ‘off duty’ time, is an inspiration to all aircraft technicians. His technical leadership is superb and two of the technicians in his crew have been commended for their diligence in finding helicopter defects which were extremely difficult to detect. When a helicopter was issued to the Flight from another unit he discovered unserviceabilities which might have escaped anyone less devoted. He was given the task of leading the rectification team and after a long period of intense and sustained work brought the aircraft to a very high servicing standard. Sgt Bane has a fine reputation resulting from his technical service to Army Aviation since 1962. The high serviceability rate of the unit’s helicopters is largely attributable to him, and his technical proficiency and leadership are well in excess of that demanded by his appointment. With over twenty one years in the Army, Sergeant Bane continues to serve with outstanding loyalty and devotion.’
