Tony Bond, if my memory stands, was the first 1st Tour pilot on 2(AC) Sqn Phantom recce at Laarbruch, sometime around 1974-ish. I think he was an ex-apprentice, and he was dropped into a sqn of mostly old recce hands, but certainly proved to be, from a PI point of view, an excellent recce pilot. He was crewed with Bill Pike, who had many years on recce, and the pairing, from a RIC point of view, came up with the goods. A good egg!
