Cliff Duncan has written an absorbing account of his time on National Service with the RAF in the 1950’s. It has been published and can be viewed on line – see link below. Alternatively Duncan has one or to typed copies which he is prepared to lend interested members. It is a fascinating account of a life changing experience. You can read how Cliff was a key man in the evacuation of Khartoum after the crisis of 1955 and how he commandeered the queen’s temporary throne at the El Adem RAF base!

Well worth a read, whether you suffered National Service yourself or just wonder what you missed. DK
An old post (2013) but worth re-publishing- and a good story which might encourage more members to write their own life stories. David K
