Apologies to Fincastle84, end of thread drift.
Non required, I love to hear you old guys having a wander down memory lane!
Re ex-mover's post, it reminds me of when I was enduring my holding posting at MOD in 1969, awaiting my Shack OCU. I was fortunate enough to be living in Kenley OM when BBC TV was making a documentary about the BoB. They treated some of the Few to a dining in night & interviewed them during the evening. After the meal we 'livers in' were invited to join them in the bar.
There was a couple of the Polish pilots in attendance, sadly I can't remember their names. (Bruno Skawolski (sp)?) They could certainly drink! Ginger Lacey was there as well as Johnnie Johnson. It was a very special evening for a very junior pilot officer who was in a very sad state the following morning!
