I remember"Pinky" Walton.He was with me on 1564 Flt (Sycamores)in 1964.
I have some 8mm. film of him goingnout to the shower room - what a sight!!
I am now semi-retired but still doing a bit in aviation with a Maintenance Company, ATC Lasham, Hampshire and living not far away in Alresford, near Winchester.
B/rgds,
Alan Langford.

Hi Alan
If you knew Pinky and was at El A in 64 we should know each other, what trade were you?

Just spoke to Ken Patchett who also lives in Emsworth Hants, after visiting the RAF Forum 2 site.
Very nice to see familiar names again:
Jock Patrick.
Eric SKIN Skentlebury.
Tap Tapper.
FS Cockburn was our shift Boss.
Was very lucky that FS Churchill sent me to Akrotiri in May 1964, I followed Tapper who also escaped El Adem.
