Two NCO's from 487 (Kingstanding and Perry Barr) Sqn ATC have been promoted in a recent ceremony at the Sqn headquarters.

Sgt Jack Kirby was promoted to FS by Flt Lt Brendan O'Neill, OC 487 Sqn. FS Kirby has been with 487 Sqn for over 3 years now and in that time he has accomplished a great deal. Most notably he has been selected to play for the Wing, Region and the ATC Rugby teams, and he was again selected to play for the Corps team only two weeks ago.

Cpl Adam Reynolds was promoted to Sgt. Again, Sgt Reynolds is a stalwart of the Sqn and he had a particularly good year in 2010. He is a member of many Sqn sports teams and he was also selected to attend the Cadet 150 parade at Buckingham Palace .

Both FS Kirby and Sgt Reynolds have a full year ahead of them and it's all systems go at the Sqn in terms of the Wing Training Day.
