I had the good fortune to accompany Bill on four consecutive squadron tours. We first met up on 4 Sqn at Gutersloh, and on disbandment we were posted to Chivenor, me initially on 234 Sqn and then moved to join Bill on 79 Sqn, instructing on W.I.F. We were then selected for the Jaguar Conversion Team, and during this tour I was promoted to become Bill's boss on 1 Sqn, Jag OCU. We parted ways then, with Bill going to Germany and I to Colt on 41 Sqn.
Bill and Dora were terrific companions during this period and their sons were constant companions to my son and later, daughter.
I look forward to the book Howard !
