I was curious about Duncan Mckinnon's unit - 1st AM RAF. Looking him up in the SNWM and CWGC databses gives these entries:

Surname McKINNON
Firstname Duncan
Service Number 22616
Date Death 22/10/1918
Decoration
Place of birth Dumfries
Other 101 Sqdn.
SNWM roll THE ROYAL AIR FORCE
Rank Air Mechanic 1st Class
Theatre of death France.


Name: McKINNON
Initials: D
Nationality: United Kingdom
Rank: Air Mechanic 1st Class
Regiment/Service: Royal Air Force
Unit Text: 101st Sqdn.
Date of Death: 22/10/1918
Service No: 22616
Casualty Type: Commonwealth War Dead
Grave/Memorial Reference: S. II. W. 20.
Cemetery: ST. SEVER CEMETERY EXTENSION, ROUEN

In which case 1st AM is actually his rank rather than Private as he is listed .
