Grounded/Remustered Aircrew
Is it possible that the Sergeant was originally an Air Gunner who has subsequently re-mustered to Medical Branch after the War (there not being much call for Air Gunners) but as ex-aircrew he is still entitled to wear his hard earned 'AG' brevet? Alternatively he may have been medically downgraded.
My first SWO when I arrived at RAF Coltishall in 1977 was an ex-Air Gunner who still wore his brevet.
