In Memoriam
HughGw01,
Welcome aboard this best of Threads in this best of Forums !
I do not think a vehicle of this sort would be supplied to even an RAF Gliding Club as original equipment. More likely picked up at a Disposal sale. The question is: what was it when it was in service ? (Someone out there will know).
Cheers, Danny.
PS TO ALL PRUNERS
These are the closing hours of VJ Day, 15th August 1945, 68 years ago now, when six years of war and his first five years of service ended for one who Gained his RAF Pilot's Brevet in those days.
To quote the Kohima Memorial:
"When you go home, tell them of us and say,
For their Tomorrow, We gave up our Today"
