ANECDOTAL HISTORY






EVENT

The Hunter served on the squadron from 1958 to 1971 as a consequence the Chapter presentations were split into the early era 1958 to 1965 and the later era 1965 to 1972.

The early era presentation was made by Tim Webb at the 2008 Reunion Dinner [see the next 8 pages]

The second presentation was made in 2009 by Sir Mike Stear
