89 Entry 40th Reunion Pictures
Held at the RAF College Cranwell on 17th & 18th June

Pre-Dinner Drinks
Some hit the bar the moment it opened and hadn't changed for dinner - others wasted good drinking time and dressed up for the occasion!

Paul Buckland & ? |

What ever happened to 89's hair? - It was the hats! - They made us wear them until '64!
(89 Entry were the last RAF Cranwell cadets to have to wear a hat when outside a building - Failure to do so was a chargeable offence!)

It may have looked like it, but sadly we weren't going on an old farts day trip to the seaside, or even to a wedding......
|
But there were couple of happy "Groupies" who looked as though they were!! (Are they holding hands?)
WATCH THIS SPACE FOR THE NEXT RE-UNION!
Next full re-union planned for 2008 - 45 years since kick-off! So start looking for the missing members - we need at least 45 |
