Important Memories

Both before and after my retirement - some of the great fighting aircrew and ground-crew characters (and even medics, administrators and suppliers) I've met in the Royal Air Force Club.

Most of the old school aerial warriors I met, have now, sadly, fallen of the perch, but some, I know, still pop in to 128 Piccadilly for comforting grub, a friendly chat with like-minded mates and, in a very low key way, to tell some amazing stories; from WW2, GW1, GW2, Herrick etc etc.

"You can take the guy/gal out of the RAF but you can't take the RAF out of the guy/gal" - a quote from the universal dictionary of functional clichés.

But it's true.
