Major Snowdon Le Cornu was dismissed from the RAF immediately after demobilisation. On the 1st of January 1919, he was a civilian once again, just like thousands of other ex-military men in Britain. There were thousands who, just a short while before had been living on their nerves. Now they were all looking for a job. Every day Snowy went out in search of a job to earn his living, but with lots of former aviators looking for a job, it was no easy task."
