Gazetting of Promotions versus use of Acting Rank in Gazette

The one that really gets me is Cdt FS rather than CFS. We’ve crossed the rubicon and gone to single letters for Flt and Sgt, so it should be the same for Cdt (as is the case for the other two letter initialism with a cadet prefix, CWO).

Never knew this was a thing, put my service number in to the search and it shows my Plt Off, Fg Off and Flt Lt ‘promotions’ (RAF Reg) thanks for the heads up quite a cool thing to have a copy of.
