The RAF stations abroad go on strike!
"The first news about the strikes reached the British public on January 24th 1946 when The Times reported that 2,000 airmen at Mauripur, in India, had began a "stay in strike". Not reported was that the airmen had addressed a petition to the new Prime Minister, Mr. Attlee, saying: "We have done the job we joined up to do. Now we want to get back home, both for personal reasons and because we think it is by work that we can best help Britain. No indication has been given of when we will see our families again.
The full weight of military discipline fell on LAC Norris Harold Cymbalist, a radar operator at RAF Singapore. Cymbalist was charged with incitement to mutiny and with insubordination. Evidence was given at his court marshal that he had called on three hundred airmen to strike in sympathy with others and had used insubordinate language to a squadron leader. He was sentenced to 10 years and given a dishonorable discharged.
A substantial volume of protest built up in Britain when news of the arrests reached the general public. As a result of public pressure two airmen were released after serving two months of their imprisonment and another subsequently released on medical grounds, having suffered a breakdown. In the House of Commons, The Air Minister announced that the sentence on Cymbalist would be reduced to 5 years". .
