And if they're in an RCAF unit, they are (or were) a SWO (Senior/Senile Warrant Officer) if they're in a Sgt Maj position...though I used to call the "SWO" of 408 Sqn "SSM", as he was a Strathcona when I was working with them.
I read a similar account of that patrol elsewhere...and IIRC, once the Victor III was detected, in the version I read, they had a MK 37 tubed and readied in case they were more seriously pursued/prosecuted, which I'm sure would have added to the tension of the tracks they were doing.
