The Journal of the 81st Entry

Editor: Mike Stanley

 

Welcome to the ninth edition of

The Journal

As you will see this issue of The Journal is smaller than previous issues. This gives me the chance to put in some notices.

Notices:

1: Let's have some more articles or future issues will be even smaller, or non-existent.


2: For those of you who had the fortune to serve with No 37 [MR] Sqdn at RAF Khormaksar, or those who had any dealings with the Squadron, there is a website to peruse: well worth a visit: http://www.37aden.co.uk


3: During the reunion at Cirencester someone took a photograph of the Instrument Fitters, after the main group photo. Curly Knowlton would be delighted to receive a copy. Let him know of any cost involved.
Curly can be contacted via The Ed [aka Mike Stanley]
