His son J.A.G. Slessor ended up following in the fathers footsteps and joining the RAF.
..and commanded the "Secret Hampshire Helicopter Base" in the early 70s.

Whilst he was Staish, the awful white on blue name badges came in. We were all told that a MAXIMUM of 2 initials would be allowed - a particular grump for a certain CJET C***b.

But of course John Arthur Guinness Slessor (Sir John married the beer heiress IIRC) got all of his ........ quelle surprise ............
