Brasso, Duraglit And Button Sticks.

BRAKEDELL.
And after the Brasso came forth Duraglit.

WILEY.
You can ask any questions you want to, morbid or otherwise, with one exception. No questions about the Reeperbahn, Hamburg. 15 course at Ponca consisted of (all approximate figures ) 104 cadets, including 17 American. 22 were eliminated leaving 65 British of which 9 killed.. This comparatively low figure, may be due to it being far safer stoking steam trains, as was mentioned in previous posts.

PULSE1.
Have the relatives of F/L Mitchell googled 1 BFTS. . Think there is an American 1 B.F.T.S association, and possibly a British one. Also The Royal Air Force forum, and the R.A.F commands forum, might help.

REGLE,
Your reference to the Britannic , Hood, Rodney etc, reminded me of that old mess song, (becoming all nostalgic again)

I called on my sweetheart they called her Miss Brown.
She was having a bath and she couldn’t come down
?????????
?????????
So roll on the Nelson, the Rodney, Renown,
You can’t say the Hood, cos the backstuds gone down..

I wonder if the modern aviators still sing daft songs in the mess.
