Hi Eric, I guess I got to the Bombing Range after you Left. A friend of mine was there I think about the same time as you.Les Simkin, he spoke of a trio of lads, Chunky, Linkey and Bonner. I'm guessing you were the Linkey?

Hello.....I was in Air Movements between early 1961 and late 1962. I was in the same tent as Hoppy Hopkins, then moved to the next tent. I also went on holiday with him to Malta on Friday 13th 1961, just after the aircrash. Rocky Wilkinson and I went on to Sicily and Italy while Hoppy and Harry Marks stayed in Malta. We met up with them on the way back from Italy, then we had a few days with them in Malta before we went back to El Adem.

Please contact me if you would like to discuss things further.

Regards,

Joe Daly
