Lossiemouth Re union

Dont know if this is the correct thread to post this item but here goes!! 'HMS FULMAR' - REQUEST FROM RAF LOSSIEMOUTH


As the Station historian here at RAF Lossiemouth, I would be grateful if you could advertise the opening of the refurbished Station Museum, free to visit, though by arrangement, and in need of Naval artefacts and photographs. all original prints are returned to their owners. Also RAF Lossiemouth will be holding a veterans day here on 27th May for all ex- Lossiemouth personnel. (More details to follow, for those able to attend)
Sergeant Anthony W Carlin

I believe that SKRODZKI, Zbigniew K, Lieutenant is the only person to have ejected 3 times in the FAA. Have visited the cemetry their a couple of times Also My Sqdn SP and SO are buried their LT/CDR Watson L/T Hulme and L/T Chris Councell. Did he have a brother on the SQDN?? Will pay my respects in May RIP. PS We had a Middy Pilot and S/LT Observer on 809/736 who flew together. Not sure of their names??? Thompson springs to mind, any help please
