Abstract
THE Air Ministry has appointed Dr. Thomas F. Macrae, a biochemist, and Squadron Leader W. P. Stamm, a specialist medical officer, to watch over the food supplied to the Royal Air Force to ensure that the greatest nutritional value is obtained. Dr. Macrao will investigate foodstuffs in use, and Squadron Leader Stamm will watch for the earliest signs of food deficiency in the health of the men. Both will study the preparation and cooking of food at the various units, the planning of a balanced ration from the available supplies, and the prevention of waste.
