Flying Officer Anthony Muncaster, RAF
Jun. 06, 1978 - HARD UP RAF OFFICER APPEALS TO THE QUEEN: FLYING OFFICER ANTHONY MUNCASTER, 27, IS TO ASK THE QUEEN FOR PERMISSION TO RESIGN HIS COMMISION SO THAT HE AND HIS YOUNG WIFE CAN HAVE CHILDREN AND A HOME OF THEIR OWN. IF THE QUEEN REFUSES HE SAID HE WOULD HAVE TO WALK OUT OF THE RAF AND FACE COURT MARTIAL FOR DESERTION. HE ADDED I NO LONGER WISH TO HOLD A COMMISION AT ANY PRICE BECAUSE IN DOING SO, I CANNOT OFFER MY WIFE A FAMILY OR EVEN A HOME OF HER OWN. PROMOTION PROSPECTS AND JOB SATISFACTION ARE ZERO, MY PAY IS ABYSMAL AND I JUST CANT CARRY ON LIKE THIS UNTIL MY 38TH BIRTHDAY IN 1989. PHOTO SHOWS FLYING OFFICER ANTHONY MUNCASTER
