Can anyone throw light upon this RAFVR officer?
Apparently the jeweller/engraver got the rank wrong Thanks for any assistance GTB |
Can't see any rank on the disc. The only mistake is the apostrophe in the wrong place for the standard designation OFFR standing for "Officer". O'FFR instead of OFF'R.
