Talk:Oswald Allen Harker

Brigadier ?
I don't understand how Harker could have become Brigadier. His short bio here or on MI5 website say he was in the Indian Police up to being deputy commissioner, then joined MI5 on loan from the India Office. From a quick search at the gazette, I find that he was in 1915 Deputy Commissioner, Bombay City Police, Esq., Administrative Assistant, Foreign Office in 1937 when was made CBE , and was even made 2nd Lt in 1939.

So how did he become Brigadier and in which force ? Rob1bureau (talk) 13:55, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
