I was on 18 and 19 Courses at 1 BFTS at Terrell, Texas in 1943/44. Put back a course due to mumps!! We had 20 per cent American Cadets. Virtually the same percentage British/American cadets were eliminated. Several American cadets with whom I corresponded after returning to U.K. Went to their Ferry Command. We were appalled at their tales of Pre Flight hazing etc. There is a Museum of 1 BFTS at Terrell which is very active. I have just met the Directors of the Museum who were on holiday in U.K. They keep the Museum very active and for those interested, worth contacting. Lots seem to be happening and they are very keen after all these years.
