The New Zealand Dental Services

Base Dental Store

Base Dental Store

This store was administered by the ADDS and had, up to 1942, been working under the handicap of very inadequate staff. The new establishment was as follows:

1.

Quartermaster in the rank of captain (or subaltern). As mentioned above, this officer was not a dentist and thus did not receive the professional pay allowance granted to dental officers in New Zealand and overseas.

2.

Accountant in the rank of Warrant Officer first class.

3.

Head storeman in the rank of Warrant Officer second class.

4.

Three ledger clerks who were WAACs, one being a sergeant, one a corporal and one a private.

5.

Four storeman-packers (male). One was a sergeant and one a corporal.

6.

One civilian typist.

This gave the store a staff of eleven, an increase of five on the previous figure.
