A TECHNICIAN at RAF Odiham was one of 28 apprentice to be honoured by the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal Sir Stephen Hillier.

Senior Aircraftman (SAC) Joseph Harry was recognised for his apprenticeship in warehousing and storage

The RAF provides paid training in specialisms ranging from communications, photography, catering, logistics through to engineering manufacture, human resources and flight operations.

SAC Harry also received an additional award from the Federation of Apprentice and Boy Entrant Associations.

He said: “This has made me hone skills I didn’t think I had. It’s given me so many opportunities since joining whether sport, adventure training or going away on detachment. RAF 100 means a lot. Being part of the history is really special. I just want to keep enjoying it and make the most of the opportunities the RAF has offered me.”
