At South Cerney in 1960 we were given £10 to buy a Hat (Bates), gloves and a pair of shoes (Poulsen). Everything else was issued including a No I uniform with brass buttons and a greatcoat with KG VI buttons. Our flying kit consisted of an overall, soft blue helmet, white gloves and gauntlets; the left and right were different patterns made by different manufacturers.

At Oakington I was presented with KG VI wings.
