  • Flying Officer David Elwyn Walters Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve
    Flying Officer David Elwyn Walters Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve 1940-46 Preface This is an attempt to tell as much as possible of the story of my father’s service in the Royal Air Force between 1940 when he enlisted and the date of his discharge after the Second World War in 1946; his journey through the ranks from enlisted man to commissioned officer and from “Blighty” to Africa, the Middle and Far East and back again. While it tries to tell of a more memorable time in his life, rather than the story of his whole life, it’s fair to say that the period of his service during the war and after was probably the most important part. Many of the details of everyday life are now forgotten, gone to the grave with those who lived through those momentous events but some of the tales are retold here, albeit with some minor unintentional changes, omissions or even additions; that all depends upon my own memory and how much of the stories my father chose to remember and some of the letters that were somehow saved. He was just an ordinary bloke from an ordinary background who found himself taking part in some of the most extraordinary times in history. He didn’t do anything to mark him out from the rest, just an ordinary bloke doing what had to be done as his part to end the madness of war and he survived. If I have to dedicate this small work to anyone then obviously it has to be first to my father and mother and then to the 125,000 other ordinary blokes, brave men every last one who answered the call and nightly flew against the Nazi evil as “The Bomber Boys”; the men of RAF Bomber Command and the 55,573 who failed to return.

  • 255 Squadron RAF : Unofficial Diary
    An annotated transcript of UK National Archives document AIR27/1521. 255 Squadron RAF : Unofficial Diary 12 th November 1942 to 25 th December 1942 The handwritten text in AIR27/1521, originally penned by Freddie Lammer, was re-keyed in April 2018 by Chris Eley, working from a microfilm copy of the original book. E&OE. Transcribed material is © Crown Copyright, reproduced here under the Open Government Licence v 3.0. At some time or other, the first few pages of the original document have had a soaking and are barely legible. Where totally illegible, recourse has been had to a typewritten copy held in the Lammer family archive. Names of people and places, where known to be corrupted in the original, have been corrected so as to facilitate computer searches. Additionally, some abbreviations have been expanded in the interests of clarity. Please refer back to the original whenever a published quotation is to be made, citing the source as TNA:AIR27/1521. The document is an unofficial Squadron diary covering the period between departure from RAF Honiley, Warwickshire, through to the time when the Squadron became firmly established in North Africa. This includes the disastrous period when the Beaufighters had been stripped of their airborne radar equipment on account of fear that secret technology might fall into enemy hands. In fact, the Mk.IV “AI” sets removed at Honiley before departure held little that might have been of interest to the Germans. They too had VHF/UHF radar (“Lichtenstein” radar, developed by Telefunken) fitted to night fighters such as the Bf.110-G4.

  • The Garrett Family
    Personal stories THE GARRETT FAMILY Rob Forsyth Home Farm, Clifton: late 19 th century photograph Home Farm was the family home of Francis Beesley Garrett (1843-1912) and his wife, Mary, with their children, Ruth (b 1886) and their son Frank (1891-1955). Son Frank served with The Oxfordshire Yeomanry (Queen’s Own Oxfordshire Hussars) during WWI. The Hussars were a volunteer cavalry with a large number of recruits from farms recruited specifically because of their ability to ride. A Field post card from France on 9 April 1915. Francis is on the right 134 Personal stories In 1914 he married Florence Rose Walker (b 1889 in Islington) who was a nurse at the John Radcliffe hospital. She was known as Rose. During WWII Frank was in the reserved occupation of farming and so he joined the crew of the Deddington Royal Observer Corps post (see photograph p.72). In his ROC uniform Frank and Rose had four sons and a daughter. The eldest children - Frank, Tom, Ken and Mary - all went off to the war. John, who was the youngest (b1923), was categorised as in a ‘reserved occupation’ running the farm with his father. He continued to do this after his father died in 1955 in a tractor accident. Tragically John died aged 50 in a car accident FRANK GARRETT Frank and Rose’s s on, Frank, was a tail gunner in 467 Squadron, Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve (RAFVR), based at Bottesford. He died on 18 August 1943 age 26 on a raid on Peenemunde (p.55). A relative of one the other crew members recounts ‘The crew came together in March/April 1943 and we re involved in 19 major, highly dangerous, operations during that summer.

  • Staying Red: Why I Remain a Socialist
    Staying Red: why I remain a socialist NORMAN HARDING Index Books London © Norman Harding 2005 Published 2005 by Index Books 16 Electric Avenue, Brixton, London SW9 8JX Typeset by Sumner Type, London SE22 Printed by Trade Union Printing Services, Newcastle upon Tyne A C.I.P. catalogue record for this book is available from the British Library ISBN 1-871518-25-3 Dedication This book is dedicated to all those throughout the world who are struggling for socialism, and to all those who are fighting against oppression. We need a society where social relations will mean that adequate food, clean water, clothing, and shelter will be available for all. A society where wealth (for example, oil) will not just benefit the rulers of these areas, but benefit all. A society with no national rulers using military might and superiority to invade any part of the world to steal its resources as is happening now, in 2004, in Iraq. Long gone are the days when a community was simply all the people living in an area, based on a local industry. Globalisation of capital and ownership means that the world is our community. The old slogan Workers of the World Unite has never been more urgent and necessary. Acknowledgements I thank all my comrades and friends of the late Socialist Labour League and Workers Revolutionary Party for their support and encouragement over the five years writing this book. Every attempt has been made to contact all those mentioned. If anyone has not been contacted, please accept my apologies. Special thanks to Clare Cowen and Bridget Leach for their unstinting hard work, devotion and care taken with the finer points that were needed to arrive at the finished product, and to Brian Eley for designing the cover.

  • National Service in Post-War Germany
    2 NATIONAL SERVICE IN POST-WAR GERMANY I did my basic training at RAF Padgate. Looking back on it I think I was fortunate that it was summer, making the eight weeks more bearable. It was the usual square bashing mixed in with weapons training and cross-country running with and without kit. The positive side was that I came away fitter than I had ever been, as I noticed when I had my first game of rugby on leave. Then after a brief stay at RAF Honiley in the west Midlands and at the camp at Castle Bromwich near West Bromwich I was sent to do my trade training. This I did at a camp in Hereford. My superiors had decided that I would make a good storekeeper. This was winter 1947-1948, and what a winter. In the middle of the hut we had a round pipe-stove with the chimney sticking out of the back and going through the roof. We put our beds around the stove as best we could. We soon ran out of coke and coal. We decided to go to the Sergeants and Officers mess to ask if they had any spare fuel. They said that all they could let us have was a couple of bags. So for the next two nights at least we would be warm this was my first experience of central heating. When that fuel was finished we drew up a roster of three in a team that would take it in turns to go out and forage for fuel.
