leaflets

Prompted by this mornings news about the new Pyops Brigade: When was the last time any of you airdropped leaflets? I know they were dropped during the movement of the turbine up to Kajaki dam.


On the latest Changi chapter. We staged through there on the way to KL. Britannia in VC10 out 67 - 70.


The pictures of the old buildings remind me of my boarding house (Kinloss housed and Bourne School) Kinloss house had been an Army Officers mess and was latterly used by the Singapore Police as a training establishment.


Wind forward to 2000 and something. I sat at my desk at Wyton. 4 seats away was an old school chum from KL and Kinloss house. We shared photos of the era. He was fortunate enough to have gone back in the 90s and taken similar photos of our dormitories etc in a similar vain to those above.


Small world.
