General Service 1962-2007, 1 clasp, Lebanon (SAC K Castell (E8199168) RAF), extremely fine and a rare clasp

Keith Castell was born on 28 May 1960 and enlisted in the Royal Air Force as Senior Aircraftman, Movements Operator, on 26 August 1980. Appointed Movements Controller on 3 July 1984, he was awarded the GSM with clasp, Lebanon, on 9 March 1984, being discharged on 25 August 1989.

Sold with original RAF Form 856B, Certificate of Qualifications, which offers the following reference from Squadron Leader S. P. J. Lilley, Commanding Officer, Personnel Management Squadron, R.A.F. Odiham:

'Senior Aircraftman Castell is a cheerful and reliable man who was well liked and respected by both superiors and subordinates alike. He adapted well to the Joint Service environment of his last job in the Service in addition to making the most of the varied jobs he was posted to within the Royal Air Force itself.

Senior Aircraftman Castell has worked hard and conscientiously on any task given to him, and could always be relied upon to complete his duties competently and with the minimum of fuss.
Senior Aircraftman Castell has been a credit to himself and the Service, and it is a great shame that injury has prevented him from extending his terms of Service. He will be a good asset to any civilian employer.'
