I could find out when Sweeney got married but nothing about his military service

GT means Granted
GTF means Gunnery Training Flight
In WW2 speak I have no idea on GTE but as a wild guess I would say Granted Exemption or Ground Training Establishment.
In modern speak it is Gas Turbine Engine, Gas Turbine Enclosure, Ground Threat Emitter or Grupo de Transporte Especial
Somewhere I have a doc on decoding aircraft history cards but I cannot find it.
My suggestion would be to join HistoryHub at Welcome | History Hub and ask the question there. You cannot post the graphic but giving the MACR number and retyping the complete line will be enough. While you are at it ask if anyone has his records.
Please post any answer or a link to your question here so the rest of us know in future (or at least those with less rusty memories)
