I read with interest the stories of those who knew him, he was evidently one of those 'gentleman' officers of the old school, who airmen like me always looked up to. I did not know Chris, but if he was instrumental in getting Chivenor re-opened, then I wish to pay my respects to him! I spent six fabulous years there on 63 and 19(R) Squadrons, where I met my wife of now 30 years.

RIP sir, you have my eternal gratitude!
