HI, obviously I am not expecting any confidential info here, but I am looking for someone I was at school with in the seventies (long time ago), I know he joined the RAF as a pilot then.
His name is Colin Benford. If anyone knows him please pass on this email address
[email protected].
or just reply here.
thanks:D

When I was trying to track down the RAF military service of a Brit here working for my airline, I discovered something called the RAF List.
I was able to obtain a copy from the Meadvale (?spelling) library; I think in the beginning, the part I did not photocopy, were instructions on how to contact current, past or former members of the RAF.
Try calling your local library. I believe it comes out yearly; all copies were available in London when I was searching.
In a separate but same category, I offer that if you are trying to locate an American veteran, go to www.reservist.com. It has a database of all Vietnam Vetereans and all military members since 1982, and will often lead you to their own home phone numbers.

P.S. The dip**** was lying about his RAF service in Vietnam...Wasn't even on the list, although his father was....

Try www.friendsreunited.co.uk.; I have had some success in finding old school and military friends.
