There was a driver at Finningley in the 1960s with RAF Wings on his uniform, which was that of Leon Motors, the village bus company.

Someone (Station Commander?) at RAF Finningley objected and it ran in the local papers. Can't remember how it ended, but there were an awful lot of ex WWII Polish aircrew settled in the Donny/Finningley/Lindholme area, I think he was one of them.
