Sergeant Baker's comic strip in the service magazine Yank, published on Sundays price 3d, depicted the Sack's confrontations with the perils and perplexities of wartime service life. In all his dealings - with fellow soldiers, top brass, foreign nationals, prostitutes and the rest of the world in general - the little private always came off second best. But he remained the Army's hero, a trusting soul whose own little world of dreamy optimism was constantly devastated by unforeseen disaster. His name derived from the drill sergeant’s parade-square name for all new doughboys. To that redoubtable NCO all recruits were "sad

Nevertheless 35 bikes joined him from both Hogsback and Thames Valley Chapters for the Remembrance ride to Shamley Green. It was a well researched and very good ride. Well done Gary and Kaz!

  • A WWII Ace Returns to Duxford
    A WWII Ace Returns to Duxford By Marcy Garriott In September 2013, Robert and I had the great honor of visiting the Duxford Air Base, near Cambridge England, with our friend Huie Lamb, who was sta- tioned there as a U.S. Army Air Corps fighter pilot from August 1944 through October 1945. Huie is still an intrepid traveler, who at age 89 persevered through flight de- lays and an unexpected overnight layover in Dallas, prolonging his travel time by a day. Upon his arrival at the John Barleycorn pub in Duxford, where we had booked rooms, he smiled energetically and declined the offer of a meal and a nap, preferring instead to head directly to the air base. This was not Huie’s first trip back to Duxford, but it was the first visit without a pro- grammed agenda or major event underway. We were there to explore – the weather was gorgeous, and the off-season grounds were almost deserted. Duxford was originally built as a World War I RAF base, with administration and housing buildings added in the 1930s as tensions built across Europe. Early in WWII, Duxford RAF pilots played a critical role in the Battle of Britain. In 1943, the British handed the airfield over to the Americans to use as a base for the 78th Fighter Group. Today it houses Britain’s largest air museum, the Imperial War Museum Duxford, along with the American Air Museum, a me- morial to the 30,000 airmen who lost their lives flying from British air bases during World War II.

  • NOTAMS) 1921-1939 and 1945 to 1949
    INDEX TO UNITED KINGDOM NOTICES TO AIRMEN (NOTAMS) 1921-1939 and 1945 to 1949. This list comprises the archive copies of Notices to Airmen previously held by the UK Aeronautical Information Services. These were passed to the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) Library in the 1970s and, in 2010, they were lodged with the National Aerospace Library (NAL) at Farnborough, Hants. Some of the Notams are missing and none are held for the period November 1939 to December 1945. In 1949 the existing Notam series was withdrawn in favour of Information Circulars, current Notams being either incorporated into a new edition of the Air Pilot or renumbered into the new Information Circular series. The NAL also holds the Aeronautical Information Circulars archive of the CAA Library although this is incomplete. The NAL address details are as follows: The National Aerospace Library The Hub, Fowler Avenue, IQ Farnborough, Farnborough, Hants GU14 7JP Phone +44 (0)1252 701038/+44 (0)1252 701060 Email [email protected] In some cases notes have been added to the titles of the Notams to clarify the content, these appear in brackets. 1921 Explanatory statement 1 Aerodromes for civil use: consolidated list 2 Donibristle Aerodrome: ground levelling 3 Switzerland: Dubendorf Aerodrome 4 Donibristle Aerodrome: obstructions 5 Aerodromes for civil use: amendments 6 France: use of military aerodromes 7 Government aerodromes: prices of aviation spirit 8 RAF aerodromes: standardisation of obstruction lights 9 France: aerodromes and meteorological stations 10 Manchester
