Memories

Good evening,

Was browsing the net and came across this forum. Saw mention of a blast from the past in Col Palmer. I was an ATC RAAF cadet at the same time as Col. I joined 9FLT NSWSQN Canterbury Boys High at the end of 1969, left as a CUO at the end of 1974. At school flights once you left school you could no longer be in the unit. Col and I had a many a good time at Camden during field training, he was a Warrant Officer I was a CUO.

Some years later I join the ATC Reserves at Jannali, Col was there as a corporal (I think). The Commander was Flt Lt. Lindsay Lobwein. Due to work pressures I could not continue my service and reluctantly tendered my resignation.

Every now and then I seen AAFC going about their duties and all the memories of the good time and great friends comes flooding back.

Thanks.
