For obvious (to those who know me) reasons, I remember Edward Wilson, a 16 year old Air Training Corps cadet who was killed in January 1975 by an IRA booby trap bomb targetting the Air Training Corps Squadron building. FFS!

How brave an attack that was ..........

[Edited to add wrt the next post - No 1919 was the ATC Sqn concerned.......]
