Glad to find the website. Was in the SAAF from 1980 - 1988 as an ATC. Good to see some familiar pics and names around after being away for the past 13 years. Thank you.

| Comments: | A very
informative site. It is great to read about the wonderful work being done
by your organisation. My late father was in the airforce during WWII but
was based in SA and was not involved in "the goings on" in Europe and elsewhere.
It is good to read about the heroism of the young men and what they endured. |
