In the good old days stations organised children's parties to celebrate Christmas.
At 5 FTS (RAF Thornhill, S. Rhodesia) the children's party was organised for all kids and included the arrival of Santa Claus by Avro Anson as seen in my photos below.
It's a sobering thought that all those fresh-faced youngsters photographed welcoming Santa way back in 1951 will now be in their 60's!
