Many thanks to Andy Field for all his effort with the website, & seeking contact: Andy recently located me in NZ, so that he, Andy McNeil, John Lant , and I (all formerly at Hatfield) could get in touch, after 30+ years! I am very sad to continue to hear of the shocking mess that the "leaders" are making of a once-magnificent country, shame on you all. However, I hope & trust we will see things turn around for the good soon. Any former colleagues please email me. All the very best, Hugh Cutfield 8891

Members and Squad Photos of 8/63:Dave Harley 7000 recently died in Melbourne. Dave was a member of the Australia Branch. Derek Hardey 7069 attended his funeral on behalf of the branch. Dave's two sons and a daughter advised Derek that they did not have any photos of Dave from his time in the Force and asked if he knew anyone who might have any photos of him. I have taken on the responsibilty to try to track down some original photos. A squad photo would be a good starting point. The only fellow squad member of Dave's squad I have contact with is Bob Rankin and he does not have a squad photo and would very much like to have one. Does anyone know of the whereabouts and contact details of any of the following Ray Delorie, Brian Meekings, Hermann Niewoudt,Mike Walmsley-Moss, Johannes Kloppers, Reg Dawson, Roger Barnard or Alexander Bruce. Some of you may remember me because I was in Depot for some of the time you were as were members of 9/63. I know that Andy Dougall and Spence Thomas are deceased. I am Chairman of the Australia Branch

For 4586 Bert Selley I see from
the BSAP website that you mention you have a Passing
Out Photo of the Squad 5/50, in which my elder brother
Bruce Humpage appears. It's a big ask, I know - but
is their any possibility that you could send me copy
of it, say by email (or post - address can be supplied)?
It would be much treasured by me and the ongoing Humpage
family in the UK, who have so little to show for his
membership of it. Thank you. E-Mail:

Seeking ex-BSAP officer David R Turton: I am
looking for ex-RAF colleague David R Turton. Dave was
an armament apprentice of the 91st Entry of RAF Halton

to have later served (No 8099) in the BSAP. He may have
returned to the UK to live in the Bognor Regis area
but attempts to trace him have found the trail cold.

help to:
