Last week I had the privilage of meeting Mr Roy Whipple DFC, who on Sunday the 6th of November 2012 celebrated his 95th Birthday.

I have all of Roy's log book to go onto his page, along with some more photo's and some thing else.. now what was it.. ...

ohh yeh.. about 2 hours of video!

Uploaded onto 102 Squadron's You Tube channel, a video of Roy talking about his time after 102 squadron.

Much more to come as I get to it.

Enjoy
For the memory of everyone who served with 102 Ceylon Squadron,
but mostly for the 1,027 in two World Wars who never came home.

Ed thanks for that, sadly its going to be a while before I get to them..

Long story but I have family issues that I must deal with here right now, all web site additions are now going to have to be done as and when I get time ... hope to do something each week, but not the ten pages a day I have been doing for the past two months

All the best

Chris

Hey all,

Last week Simon and I went to see Roy, and he was amazing..

Think Simon enjoyed speaking to Roy in a relaxed enviroment, even if you do have to speak up just a little for Roy to hear you.. :D

Roy and his daughters are hoping to make the unveiling in June, but for us, much more important :lol: is that he is going to be at our runion..

Roy is going to be 96 in November!

Staggering!
