Entry Representative: None

In January 1930, 59 young hopefuls arrived at RAF Cranwell as the 2D (21st) Entry to train as Instrument Makers or Wireless Operator Mechanics.
During their training, they gained 1 from the 18th Entry, 1 from the 20th Entry and 6 of their number were re-classed to a later Entry.   One died whilst still in training. This left 54 to Pass Out in December 1932.
