Eastbourne College Roll of Honour 1939-46 EASTBOURNE COLLEGE ROLL OF HONOUR 1939-46 1 CONTENTS Preface.......................................................................................................................................... Abbreviations ............................................................................................................................... Statistical Summary ..................................................................................................................... Roll of Honour ............................................................................................................................. Roll of Service ............................................................................................................................. 2 PREFACE The pattern of this War Record corresponds in general with that of its predecessor although it differs in several points of detail. The reason for a revision 55 years after the original publication is that the Roll of Honour published in 1965, although a wonderful document which paints an affectionate picture of those 161 boys who gave their lived in the Second World War, is sadly short of specific detail of where they served and how they came to lose their lives, although this is not surprising given the shortage of such information at that time. I have undertaken to update and extend this moving record, using the extensive information now available on the internet, but also with the assistance of several distinguished and able helpers, as well as members of the College Archives team. The task is almost complete and the results will, I hope, be available for publication in 2020. There are now 163 names as the deaths of Edward Crosse and Cecil Thomas have been discovered and added to the Roll of Honour. All former day boys who joined before 1936 are described as Home Boarders because that name was used until Stanley Powell’s gift of his house to the College. The rank given is in each case the highest (including ‘acting’ rank) attained in the unit stated. Finally, the fact that the number of names on the Roll of Honour is less than in the First World War cannot pass unnoticed. Perhaps there is significance in the fact that, of all OEs killed in the 1939-45 war, nearly forty per cent were aircrew. Certain it is, at any rate, that our record in the air, for all its grievous cost, gives much cause for pride in the eminence attained and the awards gained by Old Eastbournians. Also included are precise details of the locations of graves and memorials of these men. Sadly, those lost at sea and, sometimes, in the air have no burial location but may still be remembered on memorials at Runnymede, in churches and elsewhere. These are all recorded. I have spent almost twelve months, around four hours a day, searching the internet - which was not available to the authors of the 1965 edition. I am indebted, too, for the help that several people have given to this massive research task. Notably the late Vincent Allom, College teacher for 37 years, who bequeathed to the school an invaluable biographical record for every boy who attended from our foundation in 1867 until 1946. Also the late Bill Bowden (Nugent & Wargrave 1961-65) who not only discovered ten additional World War One OE casualties but provided similar research skills to this project. Also General David Thomson CB, CBE, MC, FRGS, (Gonville 1955-60) for valuable advice and information. And John Hamblin who, after similar work for Peterhouse, Cambridge, has supplied excellent biographical evidence for several OEs for whom the internet records are sparse. As has Philip Baldock whose assistance has been invaluable. And of course the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, Oxbridge Colleges, Professional Bodies and members of the College Archives team: Paul Jordan, who has been especially helpful, and Peter Durrant (Reeves 1967-71), whose support and enthusiasm has never waned. Michael Partridge (Blackwater l946-51). 3 ABBREVIATIONS AA or Ack Ack ..................... Anti-Aircraft AAG ......................................

  • Levels Or Changes?: Ethnic Context and the Political Demography of the UKIP Vote
    Levels or Changes?: Ethnic Context and the Political Demography of the UKIP Vote Eric Kaufmann, Professor, Department of Politics, Birkbeck College, University of London, UK [email protected]; twitter: @epkaufm; web: www.sneps.net Abstract Does contact with ethnic minorities make native whites more or less concerned about immigration – and how does this affect voting for populist right parties? This paper asks how ethnic diversity and change affect white support for the UK Independence Party (UKIP) in Britain in the 2010-15 period. In so doing, it underscores the contradictory responses evoked by levels and changes in minority presence. Extant work posits that both work in the same direction on white threat perceptions. This work instead holds that local minority levels and changes work at cross-purposes: minority increase contributes to whites’ sense of threat while minority levels produce contact effects in the direction of inter-ethnic accommodation. In addition, this analysis adds to work on contextual effects by applying a more rigorous technique for addressing the problem of selection bias, casting doubt on the notion that there is ‘white flight’ of anti-immigration whites away from diverse areas or toward whiter neighbourhoods. Finally, few have remarked that today’s ethnic changes contribute to tomorrow’s ethnic levels. Since minorities are attracted to areas that already minority-dense, the two measures are strongly correlated. This presents a paradox – how do threat effects associated with change become contact effects? The data here suggest that yesterday’s changes fade through habituation and contact while yesterday’s ethnic levels become increasingly salient for contact over time.

I’ll start with the sad, so you can get on and enjoy the rest of the pages of this magazine heartened by what the Good News offers. The sad news is that three veterans are with us no more. Peter Sclaverano, a firm friend and in contact often, died on 27 June. He served at RAF North Creake as W/O to 171, 199 and 462 Sqns. Chris Lambert also shares that Jim ‘Dinty’ Moore of 214 Sqn, Oulton, died during the week of 20 August. A Memorial Service will be held 2pm, 5 October, at Blickling Church. Attendees should phone Geoff Sykes at Blickling Museum. Stuart Borlase in Australia received news that Paul Henry, Navigator in 214 Sqn, died on 29 July. Both Jim and Paul were founding members of this Association, attending Reunions. I would be happy to hear from anyone who can share more about any of these kindred spirits. Meanwhile, Good News is that my 28th book was published on 23 August and will be out shortly. Titled: RAF 100 Group – Reasons to Remember, it marks both the 100th Anniversary of the Royal Air Force, and the 75th Anniversary of the formation of RAF 100 Group in November 1943.
